#RI #19APR2025 No Kings, “We’re not going back!” Protest - 250th Anniversary of the American Revolution Rally · Volunteer organized for Indivisible Downtown Westerly RI & Pawcatuck CT 11 High St Westerly, RI 02891 Saturday, April 19 12 – 1:30pm EDT www.mobilize.us/mobilize/eve...

On the 250th anniversary of the "Shot heard round the world" I think we should read the grievances the colonials had with King George. A lot of them sound familiar... lostpine.com/home/passion...

The Supreme Court ruled that the Trump admin must facilitate the return of SMART Union Local 100 apprentice Kilmar Abrego Garcia. They need to quit wasting time and bring our union brother home NOW!

A whistleblower says Musk’s DOGE team accessed NLRB (the agency protecting workers' rights) labor data—then disabled logs + blocked CISA (the U.S. cybersecurity watchdog). This is a 21st-century digital coup, echoing tactics used by Mussolini to crush labor. Federal unions: we stand with you ✊💚

Truth

Not only is DOGE making false claims about Social Security fraud, they are violating a judge’s orders blocking DOGE from private data. DOGE should not have SS numbers and the DOGE employee is not authorized to see this information. #ProudBlue#Voices4Victory apple.news/A05TXJR-3SzO...

Autism didn’t make them do it. Mental illness didn’t, either. This personal piece from The Big Picture cuts through the excuses and names the real issue: some people are just hateful, and we need to stop giving them cover.

Whatever fraud there is in Medicaid is largely on the provider side, not beneficiaries. It's health insurance, its not cash. "Fraud" here means going to a doctor if you are unemployed.

Donald Trump in a nutshell: doing everything he can to make the ultra-rich even richer. We need to find out if Trump's tariff chaos was used as cover for insider trading.

Don’t love that this got relegated to “the other side,” but I stand but what I said; this is utterly illegal and a violation of the basic principles of American rule of law.

Under the ongoing Israeli siege, famine in Gaza is intensifying and starvation is rapidly spreading.

Patriot's Day Weekend this year is going to be big... 250th anniversary of the revolutionary war. And don't forget the protests on the 19th... marathon on the 21st. www.nps.gov/articles/000...

So, for Global Work From Home Day (today) I have decided to work from home. 🤭 Sorry, couldn't stop myself from typing that. Anyway, here's a painting from 2020 illustrating what happens when a cat *needs* to get past me while I'm painting 😹 #workfromhome #cat #art #artist

This guy, Benny Johnson? What a tool youtube.com/shorts/uzljn...

What they're doing is illegal and immoral. Simply put the Republican administration must be stopped at every level.

🔥 Top Campaigns, Last 24 Hours: 1️⃣ “The House must vote NO on this week’s budget vote!” (+2,124) 2️⃣ “Demand the release of Mahmoud Khalil, Badar Khan Suri, & Rumeysa Ozturk!” (+1,929) 3️⃣ “Defend the 5th Amendment. Free illegally detained ICE targets. Stop Renditions” (+1,626)

90 percent. They sent innocent people to a gulag so Trump could look like a tough guy. www.bloomberg.com/news/article...
