History tells us of so many who fail to act, hesitate, or freeze and then pay the price. They sit back in shock or disbelief until it’s too late. They don’t rise to the moment. I have news for you. You are there right now. open.substack.com/pub/fpwellma...

Yeah, even musk kid knows trump is compromised.

He is literally purging the federal government and the only thing you can think of to legislate is making his birthday a federal holiday. Wow...if we get out of this mess we have to tighten up who can and can't run for public office.

The first time it may have been a mistake. The second time was on purpose.

Whew! Catching #TheWeekend feels like therapy—because at least some folks in the media are saying what needs to be said. They’re having the same conversations we’re having. @michaelsteele.bsky.social ,Sir 🔥 (I of III)

One of our supporters shared this with us—people are getting creative tonight!

If a four year old knows the truth, why is the whole Republican Party pretending?

Now it's up to we the people to cut that last branch.

If they don't pull together and stop his Gaza land grab, who's next? We're doomed.

If the White House decides it can defy the will of the courts, then the people must defy the will of the White House.

The Chiefs can still be named Super Bowl champions if Mike Pence has the courage.

Tryna strike a chord and it's probably A minorrrrrrrrrrrrrrr

I can't believe I have to pay the government to discriminate against me.

Someone just thought of this *now*? Omg. 😆

Spot on from @chrismurphyct.bsky.social

The shock and awe Musk, Vought, Bannon and Trump — are bringing will backfire if we’re smart about it. Make clear that DOGE is the Dept of Govt Extermination, not Efficiency. Let people see that their taxes are no longer paying for vital public services but to fatten the richest people on earth.

Crockett: What we’re not going to do is stand around while they pull this bullshit that they’re trying to pull right now

If only you knew the Minority Leader of the USS.

Jasmine Crockett: "The problem is that Americans thought it was okay to take a full fledged criminal and make him the President of the US and then they want to act aghast when he does criminal things. Let me tell you, we have a thug in charge of the US and if we don't wake up we may not have a US"

Please repost to join this apt apology to our neighbors.

We don't want to wait, we want yall to do something!

What's the plan!!! Please, with all due respect, stop giving us a blow-by-blow of what is happening and give us guidance on what we can do to stop this.

Because they are evil, we must stand up to them. But because they are also stupid, we needn’t be afraid to.

What's the plan? Guidance from our leaders is needed.

Fetterman reminds me of a really old lion that had his claws and teeth removed and now just rolls onto his back to show the younger, stronger lions his stomach in a show of submission…

I will not give in to the lies; I will not give in to the fear.

“Don’t give into the lies. Don’t give into the fear.” Thank you @jimacosta.bsky.social 🙏🏼

Want a great slogan for midterms? "If you FAFO and are struggling because of Trump policies, we understand. The Dems are here for you. Tell us how we can help you " You get the point. FAFO will be the theme. Be the solution.

It's truly disheartening that as a society, we feel powerless against the government, despite being the ones who elect them.

Let me see...hidden junk fees or losing all my rights. Hmmm, I'll take civil rights, women's rights, safe streets and schools, a non-dictatorship, Mark.

My senator is John Fetterman.

This is gold.

The @nytimes.com should hire whoever wrote this headline. Seriously!

Break her freaking bones.

Melania can go but trump would throw the biggest fit the world has ever seen if you try to deport Elon.
