I'm going to recount an actual story of me arguing about unanimous consent a year ago with a Senate legislative Director. Words are approximate. "Why don't you guys object to unanimous consent and override Schumer??" "Oh Gabe, you think no one has thought of this before?? This isn't clever."

It may not be cool or hip in some circles, but we legitimately do need a massive amount of people to run for office. Flood the school boards, councils, county seats, state legislatures, Congress, etc. Big changes at the top happen when the ground shifts at the bottom. And that can start now.

It's been so run through pop culture as to seem almost corny, but I need you all to understand with the deepest seriousness available to you that the "First they came for..." thing was to prepare you for this exact moment

Yeah, the White House official account posted this disgusting mess and the person in charge of eviscerating the entire administrative state without oversight retweeted it giggling like a cartoon supervillain, but somehow we're exaggerating about what's happening and what must be done 🙄

Republicans are realizing just how much damage these illegal and unconstitutional cuts are doing to their own districts and states. This is what happens when you kowtow to your King instead of standing up for your own Constitutional powers. www.politico.com/news/2025/02...

If you are a federal worker being offered a buyout, I would advise against taking it. Of course, this is a personal decision for everyone and it’s your choice. But these offers are a rush job. The legality is questionable and this admin does not keep to its word. They aren’t firing for a reason.

Yes, this administration is dangerous and cruel, but they are also shockingly dim and incompetent. Opportunities are everywhere. Make everything as hard as possible. Resist every demand. Refuse entry without a warrant. Don’t take the buyout. Their problem solving skills are 📉

Everyone should be aware of the line that has been crossed in the Trump trans military EO. No longer is this about "evidence," "science" or "protecting kids." Now, explicitly, black and white, it's about trans people being "liars," "dishonorable," "false." It's a big step towards very bad things.

The Democrats funded genocide in Gaza. And the polling showed it was killing their chances of beating Trump. So we did GOTV for them. And we protested Trump’s rallies. And we begged them again and again to change course. And they refused to stop funding genocide… I guess to make a statement.

One of the best things you can do right now is read books. Buy them. Borrow them from the library. Gift them. Read history. Read fiction. Read science writing. Read anything that shows you the world is bigger than what fascists say it is. Read to remember why your resistance matters. 📚💙
