Yesterday marked one month of the Trump-Vance administration. Here's a roundup of some of the recent efforts made by the Democracy 2025 coalition to block this administrationā€™s unlawful actions. Visit Democracy2025.org to learn more.

We are honored to represent @nadohe.bsky.social, @aaup.bsky.social, Baltimore and ROC, who each bravely pushed back against Trumpā€™s intimidation & scare tactics, securing a victory for women, minorities, people with disabilities, veterans, and so many more.

@thebeat.msnbc.com Thank you for covering the extraordinarily efforts Senator Murkowski takes on behalf of each and every single one of her constituents behalf regardless of their own political affiliations. She is truly a North Star we can't do without. Light her up šŸŒŸ

Maine's Governor has more courage than our POS. He's off polishing knobs at CPAC. States in massive debt and he takes another nice little trip. youtube.com/shorts/iZuYd...

Bill Gates says if U.S. foreign aid spending doesn't get back on track soon, millions of lives are at risk. He added it could also present an economic problem as aid presents a gateway for diplomatic and economic conversations with foreign nations. share.newsbreak.com/bn2f7hgw

Finally, a Republican all can approve "Trump is surrendering America. Trump is the opposite of strong. He is a tiny, weak, small, scared, trembling, sissy, husk of a man. There is nothing manly about his fat, sweaty, smelly, gross, makeup'ed self. An absolute joke." share.newsbreak.com/bn2cezv8

Love, Truth and Integrity were part of the solution during each terrible part of history. I am thankful for those journalists who have courage and integrity. I am also grateful for good scientists and educators. Glad there are some politicians who embrace truth over selfish greed.

Nearly every single Republican voted against releasing the Matt Gaetz ethics report. Remember this the next time they pretend to care about protecting minors.

@4taxfairness.bsky.social identified two dozen House Republicans whose 2024 margin of victory is less than the number of people who will lose their jobs, health care and food assistance under Trump's budget. Is yours one of them?

Over on LinkedIn, the head of the Executive Secretariat of the NIH -- a central part of NIH leadership šŸ§ŖšŸ©ŗ-- resigned with a lettter worth reading www.linkedin.com/posts/nathan...

Umberto Eco put together a now-famous list of 14 attributes of fascistic states. I'm going to discuss each of them in hopes this helps ppl understand that fascism is not just a buzzword. We're going to go through these by theme, so strap in. šŸ§µ

I know posts like this are to remind us that democracy is fragile, but 8 worry Trusk will take it as a challenge to do it even faster.

Anyone who is looking into fElon companies is being taken out. Itā€™s the signal to the noise he is making as her gets rid of so many to cover up the real purpose. He doesnā€™t want oversight. He is not brilliant but rather evil, manipulative and maniacal. Guardian šŸ‘‡

Where hunger is ugly..souls are forgotten, Where black is the color, where none is the number, & Iā€™ll tell it & think it & speak & breathe it, & reflect it from the mountain so all souls can see it Then Iā€™ll stand on the ocean until I start sinkinā€™ā€¦Itā€™s a hard, itā€™s a hard rainā€™s a-gonna fall.

If I hear one more fucking idiot attacking Senator Murkowski, I am going to lose my shit! As a blue dot progressive in a red state, I'm telling you she is the only person working for the people in D.C.! She had a town hall and heard us all out! No matter who we are, she listens and cares!

Alaska has the fourth-highest number of federal workers per capitaā€”fish & game, forestry, and moreā€”their jobs are being cut under the excuse of ā€œpoor performance.ā€ Lisa Murkowski knows thatā€™s a lieā€”so why wonā€™t she just say, itā€™s a lie. Collins, Burchett, and the rest are just giving lip service.

What could go wrong?

#Alaska #akleg Numerous studies have shown this is bad.

WE TOLD YOU THIS WOULD HAPPEN LISA! @lisamurkowski.bsky.social

Another protest against Trump/Musk in #Anchorage today in front of the delegationā€™s offices.

RAGE ON!

Alaska has more to lose than anywhere else. The bypass mail subsidy program is a central element in Alaska commerce. Started 1972, it has helped keep costs from rising even higher for thousands of Alaskans in 239 small communities across the state. It was championed by the late Senator Ted Stevens.

Begichā€™s message to Alaskans amid Trump firings: Hold tight. The @alaskabeacon.com's Corinne Smith and James Brooks report: alaskabeacon.com/2025/02/20/b... #akleg
