Single women have quietly led a revolution in wealth-building. They make up 20% of U.S. buyers in 2024, nearly 3x the share of single men. To keep the American economy strong, we need to offer more, not fewer opportunities for women and particularly single women. #WomensHistoryMonth

In the last #FirstMondaysWebinar, strategy consultant Joseph Phelan highlighted how audience specificity strengthens narratives. To counter the Right's "us vs. them" strategy, we need narratives that reach those who don't yet see themselves in our vision. ⬇️ youtube.com/shorts/CXxmM...

Hundreds of thousands of people are taking to the streets on April 5 to say “Hands Off!” Hands Off things that can help everyday Americans, like Social Security, Medicare and Medicaid. They promised to help us, and now they’re hurting us. Find an event near you: www.mobilize.us/handsoff/map/

America elected Donald Trump. Then, abracadabra: Tech bro #1 runs the govt., Putin is no longer our nation’s enemy & programs that help everyday Americans go up in smoke. Essential services like Social Security, Medicare & Medicaid are threatened, & our global allies think we're, well, bewitched.

A Must-read From @theatlantic.com: A large number of Christians now embrace the New Apostolic Reformation (NAR), a movement to dismantle the secular state & replace it with Christian rule. While many failed to take this threat seriously, Trump capitalized on it. www.theatlantic.com/magazine/arc...

Remember the toilet! Remember when Trump was indicted in 2023 for mishandling classified documents, some of which were in his bathroom close to the toilet? He took classified materials & was charged accordingly. The charges were dropped after the election ...

One might assume that - given the enabling of the Tech Bros- they would have explained a basic technology like Signal. This is so much bigger than the “signal” mistake. This was exposed. What else is happening ?

So- who feels less safe after top officials cannot figure out signal??

There’s an ongoing debate in Washington about how and whether to fight against the Trump/ Musk Administration & Republicans in Congress. Some say, pick your fights, be strategic. Others urge Dems to fight, not be silent and provide leadership. This is a false choice. ⬇️ youtube.com/shorts/q-AUE...

March is #WomensHistoryMonth, and yet, the Trump/Musk Administration continues to block women’s contributions to our economy and the country as a whole. Their anti-women agenda isn’t just an attack on our rights; it’s a direct threat to the country’s prosperity.

Small MAGA minds, small MAGA hands and small…fill in the blank. This must be driving the chaos …?

Why are the MAGA Republicans so afraid of educating future generations? They are shortchanging our children, shortchanging our ability to compete, and shortchanging the very country they profess to serve and love.

This #WomensHistoryMonth, let’s talk about an overlooked but powerful voting bloc — unmarried women (the majority of all women). In 2024, they matched married women in turnout for the first time, and now Project 2025 is targeting them directly.

The Right’s narrative relies on vilifying “others” based on who they are, not what they do. Trump & his lemmings have used “othering” & identity politics to gain power. We need narratives that call out Trump/Musk for what they do, or fail to do, for the American people. youtube.com/shorts/3WVlI...

Anyone wonder why the Black-bodied Rep Al Green was censured by Congress for shouting truth to evil during Trump's SOTU while the white-bodied Rep MTG was not censored for screaming LIAR during Biden's SOTU?
