I’m positive you all saw the video from Coeur d’Alene, where a woman was pulled out of her seat and arrested by men who claimed to be sheriff deputies, but were not in uniform. I need the men to do something: When you see a woman being abused, step in. Step up. Get in the way. Put your body to use.

One thing helping me right now that I encourage you to try: use your nice, special occasion things. Light the special candle. Use your “nice” dishes. Wear the outfit you save for an occasion. Use your fancy wine glass for water. Stop saving things for a special time — make this a special time.

PASS IT ON. I shared my story with AFR about how the Consumer Financial Protection Bureau helped me. We must save the CFPB, a small dept that saves consumers from fraud, scams, & overcharging by banks & institutions and retail that take advantage of average people like you and me.

There are little Trumps and Musks everywhere and we have to fight them everywhere.

On the one hand, this "I'm powerless!" answer from multiple congressional Republicans is pure garbage. On the other hand, it's sure not "Trump/Musk are doing a great job!" Which (1) tells you what they're hearing, and (2) will tend to further hurt Trump's popularity.

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.

Here’s some advice for those outside our coalition, as the administration is actively leading a witch hunt for resistance members. If you’re a government employee, avoid using government devices to coordinate. Do not use standard messaging apps on Android or Apple devices.
