A quick resistance task: 1. Google Gulf of Mexico 2. “Gulf of America" is the top 3. Click on the three little dots to the right of it 4. Select "Send Feedback" 5. Click on "Gulf Of America" 6. Select "Inaccurate content" 7. Select "Incorrect" and type in "The correct name is “Gulf of Mexico"

We all read it, now we live it.

At some point, and hopefully soon, the national guard will need to be called in to arrest the capitol security police who are enforcing illegal EOs. They have a duty to refuse illegal orders and uphold the constitution code.dccouncil.gov/us/dc/counci...

The union representing CDC is AFGE local 2883. You're eligible to join if your SF50 has code 7777 in box 37. You can join here: www.afge2883ga.org Bargaining units are subsets of union members. There is currently no unit at CDC. Non-bargaining union members have benefits: www.dol.gov/sites/dolgov...

If you are feeling overwhelmed, it makes perfect sense. I want to once again offer that it's so much better to immerse yourself in only one or two things. Follow the news about just those focus areas. Importantly find concrete small actions to take in those specific areas. Key is consistency.

Nobody elected Elon Musk. So why is Trump granting him all-access powers to get rid of funding for Medicaid, Social Security and more?! We need to get Musk's hands off our money and stop the Musk takeover NOW. Join our rally: https://MoveOn.org/NobodyElectedElon

Easy like Sunday morning 🎶🎶🌞 Scooby is ready for his post-breakfast snooze.

You're not overwhelmed. You're under attack.

NEW: David Hogg has won the vice chair DNC election.

2/2 She encourages those that are safe with their legal status to offer neighbors grocery trips as needed.

Worth sharing. When someone shares valuable information I share here but I also encourage the person posting to join #bluesky 1/2 A young woman entered a Mexican market thankful that she'd shop without crowds. Then she realized people are NOT shopping for their own safety.

This is how autocrats throughout history have endangered the people they govern by erasing factual information vital to health and well being www.theatlantic.com/health/archi...

National City, CA The people are refusing to stand aside as plans to "house" detained migrantes in concentration camps were announced. #CommunityIsResistance

Don't worry everyone; Trump's paying close attention to the 2nd plane crash, as evidenced by his latest post.

Rep. Thomas Massie introduced a bill to get rid of the Department of Education. Don’t say we didn’t warn you.

📌Jonathan Harris's painting is still the most prescient thing I've seen during these past eight, awful years.

This is what the government did with 120K+ Japanese Americans in 1942. I know. I was there in those camps.

Gosh, I remember when we had an actual president instead of a loudmouth bully who won't take responsibility for his actions.

In my world, “the talk” is what Black parents have w/our kids, about how to survive an encounter w/police who see them as a threat because of our skin color. Latino families have their talk, w/kids even younger, about ICE who see them as criminals: “If we disappear…” Different fear. Same America.

When asked if he was going to visit the crash site he said, ‘what site? The water? You want me to go swimming?’ This is one of the last pics of the young skaters who died. He’s a sociopath. Anyone who voted for this monster should be ashamed at best.

From this morning:

Do you wonder why you haven’t heard much about this massive TB outbreak recently? Cuz the CDC can’t hold any press conferences or issue public statements of any kind. abcnews.go.com/Health/kansa...

Yeah, how about not dissolving the air safety advisory commission at the FAA. As your team did last week.

Can we just spare a minute in this constitutional crisis to give a shout out to @bsky.app ? I’ve been ridiculously pleased with how quickly I get breaking news and how frictionless it’s been to keep plugged into topics I’m concerned about.
