@padilla.senate.gov it is shocking what happened to you. #nokings #magacoup # resist

Today they have crossed a deep red line. We, the people, must hold the president and his appointees accountable for this outrageous abuse against American liberty.

#KristiNoem the homeland "security" sec is a liar. The conference with #fbi & other law enforcement was a farce. It was a threat to all of us in #losangeles

I sent an email to my family who live in rural Washington State, Kentucky, and Ohio. My family is mostly liberal to leftists, but just in case they’re being fed lies.

Protesters in LA are overwhelmingly peaceful.

#RFK decimating our healthcare while #Trump intentionally tries to incite violence i LA & Dallas. He waill fail. And all for the #BigBeautifulBill Which will decimate the poor and the middle class for the #Billionaires

If you are not #MAGA you know your history. You know they're going to lose. Don't let fear in or win. #resist

Senator Ted Cruz posted a dramatic video of LAPD cars on fire with the caption “this… is… not… peaceful.” What he didn’t mention? The footage was from 2020, not 2025. His post on X falsely implied it was current, part of a broader effort to spread lies and manufacture a crisis.

Hi folks. I know things are tough for everyone right now so I hate to ask. I recently had surgery to get a tumor taken out - common procedure but it left me with pain that’s grounded me for the time being. With BTS work still incredibly scarce, I’ve just barely, barely gotten by. (1/3)

Re-read. Thanks local library!

Library of Congress staff just showed what resistance looks like. After Trump abruptly fired Dr. Carla Hayden, the respected Librarian of Congress, he tried to install Todd Blanche, his former personal lawyer and current Deputy Attorney General, as acting librarian. Staff weren’t having it.

Noem has truly sold her soul. Elsewhere on our burning planet, because he wants stronger water pressure and doesn't like to look orange under LED lights Trump is canceling the #EnergyStar program or at least he is attempting to. Will the Democrats do anything?

This week’s main story is about the budget and staffing cuts being made to public health agencies in the U.S. under RFK Jr.’s leadership, how those cuts will impact all of us, and some foolproof ideas for what scientists can do in the absence of totally superfluous stuff like, y’know, centrifuges.

Really great to see someone say what needs to be said over and over: lots of those executive orders are bullshit grabs for powers the president doesn't have--unless we give it to him, and that starts through misinformation.

Over 170 presidents of colleges and universities signed a letter basically telling #Trump to go fly a kite. This is excellent. Now is an opportunity for institutions of higher ed to show how much they are worth to Americans & for reinvestment in the belief that education should be accessible to all

So students have to pay back debt accrued trying to get an education but corporations never have to pay off their debt as they profit off of the working class? Go #MAGA!

When @laurenferebee.bsky.social penned this it was meant to be dystopian ... but this is a scray & moving ep of the excellent @femmefutureperfect.bsky.social pod. And I am proud my kiddo was a part of it. 9 min. Listen. podcasts.apple.com/us/podcast/f...

And still most Trump voters are glad they voted for him.

Wow. www.nytimes.com/2025/04/17/u...

Fear is the only tool TrumpMusk has. Don't give in.

Hi. Breathe.

We have received many questions about Trump potentially invoking the Insurrection Act, which gives the president broad power to deploy the military within our country. Lawmakers, organizers and everyday Americans should be ready to respond quickly and effectively if Trump takes this dangerous step.

Yes, it’s a bit hard to see now, but allowing the president to become a king who can kidnap citizens while also demolishing the global financial system is a small price to pay for getting to keeping 23 trans women from playing college sports.

The Egyptian pro-democracy activist Wael Ghonim said, "The power of the people is greater than the people in power." This is a checklist of things you can do, probably should do, resources, ideas, ways to move forward. “I just don’t know what to do!!” shouldn’t be something you say now. Here:
