A presidential executive order is calling for the elimination of federal funding to PBS and NPR [insert Arthur fist on the mural]. Here are the three things you can do to help make things better for GBH and public media: 👊 Donate 👊 Call your representatives 👊 Share this post

I like telling authoritarians where to shove it in multiple languages

Michiana Alliance for Democracy is proud that our food drive helped the Portage Township Food Pantry. We may be protesting the corruption and the unconstitutional actions of the this regime, but we also show our compassion for our community! #WeDemandDueProcessForEveryone

We’re gathered at Foley and SO READY to march. To demand justice, equity, and dignity for all workers. Let's build a future where our families thrive over fortunes.​ #MayDay2025 #MayDayStrong #WorkersUnite #Solidarity @indivisible.org @50501movement.bsky.social @50501newyork.bsky.social

This makes no sense whatsoever. And if Congress created the grants, how can the Department of Education cancel them? #mentalhealth #checksandbalances

Chicago is one of the greatest cities in the world! Estimates of 50,000 people in the Windy City marching against tyranny. #Chicago #Solidarity #MayDay

DOJ policy expressly prohibits prosecutors from making these kind of statements, following an indictment because everyone is presumed innocent until proven guilty, and this sort of statement is prejudicial. But in the Trump administration, prosecutors can apparently get away with violating the law.

The importance of a Trump-appointed judge ruling his use of Alien Enemies Act illegal can't be overstated. It's a direct rebuke to his project of declaring that he can label anyone subject to rendition by fiat. On the pod, @leahlitman.bsky.social is so good on this: newrepublic.com/article/1947...

And yet, the S.A.V.E. Act won't accept this RealID for voting and instead demands a birth certificate which disenfranchises married women who legally changed their names. #NoSAVEAct #LetWomenVote #VoterSuppression

MAGA influencers are being offered access to “the White House—the perfect backdrop for any viral video—and the heady sense of being insiders. In return, all they have to do is ask questions that would make a Soviet propagandist blush,” Helen Lewis writes:

Left in limbo: How federal workers still on the job are coping with chaos and deep uncertainty

All of this on a weekday we’re in complete awe of you. You always rise to every call to action. You’re amazing, and words can’t express how much we love and appreciate you all.

DUE TO EXPECTED THUNDERSTORMS, our May Day Rally is RESCHEDULED for SATURDAY MAY 3 at 2:00 PM EST. We are sorry for any inconvenience, but we want people to be safe. See you Saturday at Jon Hunt Plaza! #SouthBend #Indivisible #Indiana

For the "I don't have worry, I'm a citizen" crowd. Yes, you have to worry. Marissa, a citizen whose house got raided by ICE agents, had all her electronic devices and cash stolen while she and her daughters were forced at gun point to lay down half naked in the front yard. myfox8.com/news/were-ci...

The idea that boys should be raised to be “tough” is resurgent in American culture. But that attitude, Joshua Coleman writes, conflicts with research showing that to thrive, boys really need more affectionate care:

We are ready for her leadership. It's time to call out the illegal, immoral and corrupt behavior of this regime.

And in #Indiana, the GOP supermajority led by Governor Braun has defunded public television and public radio.

For nearly two months, Israel has carried out a total siege of Gaza, refusing to allow in a single truck of humanitarian aid or commercial goods – the longest period Israel has imposed such a total blockade.

It’s the things you don’t realize Musk will cut until he does. DOGE has slashed funding for a reading program serving dyslexic children at the historic Hindman Settlement School in Kentucky.

Join Michiana Alliance for Democracy as we support unions and safe working conditions. As this administration tries to roll back OSHA and undermine child safety laws, we must stand together against these attacks. 5:00 pm TODAY in Howard Park, South Bend. #WorkersMemorialDay

In case you missed it... WIRED talked to *actual* federal auditors about how government auditing works—and how DOGE is doing the opposite.

Worth reading today. And let's get ready to stand together on May 1. #NoKings #NoProject2025 #JusticeForAll #Indivisible

Felon. Fraud. Liar. Wannabe Dictator. Loser. And now, Bumbler. www.wsj.com/opinion/is-t...

Unpopular policies, disgust with the blatant corruption, shock at the disregard for law and order....the list goes on and on. So, what do we do now? We stand up and speak up. The proposed budget is horrendous. Call your legislators TODAY. Use www.5calls.org

Michiana Alliance for Democracy objects to the Indiana state budget that cuts funding for public television and radio, adult daycare programs, and vaccine clinics. Instead it gives money to millionaires for private schools. Thanks to MADVoters for the graphic. #Indiana #GuttingPublicServices

Michiana Alliance for Democracy was proud to sponsor this action. Our Representative's response? We were whiny. No, Rudy, we are pissed. You are failing to protect your constituents! #Indivisible #NoToOligarchy #DOGEisDANGEROUS

🔥 Hoosiers are fired up & continuing to make their voices heard! Indivisible Central Indiana showed up strong outside Senator Todd Young’s office, demanding action & accountability in the face of Donald Trump and Elon Musk’s endless chaos. THIS is what democracy in action looks like! #Indivisible

Katie Phang: And now that my time here at MSNBC comes to a close, I am taking that fight back to a familiar place… I hope you'll follow along with me as I continue to meet you where you are at places like Substack and YouTube with fellow truth tellers like MeidasTouch…

Say it with me: people hate this mad king shit

“How much injustice will Americans take? Has the arrest of a judge crossed a line you cannot tolerate? How about the taking of three small American children out of the country in the middle of the night without due process? Have we crossed the Rubicon yet?” open.substack.com/pub/america/...

A 2-year old US Citizen was deported Friday to Honduras. “The judge on Friday scheduled a hearing for May 16, which he said was ‘in the interest of dispelling our strong suspicion that the Government just deported a U.S. citizen with no meaningful process.’” www.politico.com/news/2025/04...

Michiana Alliance for Democracy is proud to join 50501 for a May Day Rally in South Bend Indiana. And we are adding a food drive! #MayDay #Indivisible #NoToOligarchy
