@extremearturo.bsky.social had a piece this morning on the parallels between DOGE austerity and Milei's program, and it's worth flagging: 1 in 8 Argentinians has fallen into poverty under Milei's policies.

🔥🔥🔥 Thank you bbg🔥🔥🔥 We love her. "Make them assert their authority. Ask them WHO. ARE. YOU?! At the end of the day they are no one! They are just like you and they are just like me."

Cheerlead the people in government (or elsewhere) who are doing the work you want to see. Share what they do. Those Heroes need HYPE. 🔥🔥🔥 I've never played a hero and wasn't given strength by gratitude. Bards, get on duty. We need ballads.

Pritzker: If we don’t want to repeat history, then for god’s sake, in this moment, we better be strong enough to learn from it.

Love this guy

see how engaging in civil disobedience while describing in plain language exactly what MAGA is doing generates the most applause and enthusiasm you’ve ever seen at a city council meeting? Very demure, very mindful, very good thing to point out to your elected representatives youtu.be/WOPslXXdpEg?...

NY Governor Hochul keeps giving: 'No. I'm not THAT cool. I'm just NY's mother bear and the bear was poked!' BUT you know what, Kathy, you look pretty cool. 🐉😎🔥 It's the blue flame we needed. That's all I'm saying. Kinda like a big hero moment from you, Kathy. www.youtube.com/live/mhFlHq0...

Working class Americans live 6 years shorter lives than the wealthy. Doctors believe economic stress is a major factor in that disparity. I asked Americans to describe how stress impacts their lives & well-being. The responses were heartbreaking. Here are some of them:

NEW VIDEO: News that DOGE is now seeking to access the most sensitive information in the IRS' database has lead to a new lawsuit by @democracyforward.org. Paige and I explain. www.youtube.com/watch?v=d4ua...

What a shame. Teamsters deserve better than this.

This is the story.

Japanese Americans in Washington were driven from their homes, separated from their families, and isolated in poor conditions in internment camps. That damage remains. Never again. On this Day of Remembrance, I commit to standing up for all residents of our state.

Every Democrat should be telling this story.

Correct.

Gary the Canadian Adventure Cat would like to remind America that if it invades Canada, its children will die, scared, alone and frozen.

We have been careful to avoid using the word coup, but it’s time to call it what it is—this is a coup. Trump signed an executive order granting only the attorney general or the president the authority to interpret laws executed by the executive branch.

Pssssssssst... the reasons are complex, look them up if you want, but the TL:DR seems to be that this is one of the most important things you can do against the coup right now: swingleft.org/p/wisconsin-...

Climate change isn't a tragedy, it's a crime. 🔥

Need these to flip the house. 54 minutes is where AOC talks about it youtu.be/rIlsYJP3jLM?...

I just finished up a security clearance hearing trying to save the clearance of a client and I find … this…. If you’re a clearance holder, stay away from the DOGE site. These ignorant virgins are going to find themselves prosecuted for violating the Espionage Act before all is said and done.

THIS IS WHAT'S UP! Seriously, this is the NECESSARY SHIFT! 💗🔥✨🪽🤍

I keep seeing people say, why isn't anyone doing anything? So I'll say something that seems obvious to me but may not be to others. People -are- doing stuff. They're just not posting about it. People who can't keep quiet are a liability.

To all who commemorate legacy media's decline, happy one month anniversary of the Washington Post telling us that Pam Bondi should be confirmed as Attorney General. Don't get fooled again. Support independent, pro-democracy media. www.democracydocket.com

BREAKING: White House confirms it has lost at least 12 cases, at least temporarily, since becoming president. Acting illegally and losing cases is a hallmark of Trump.

1. Stay engaged When all the news is about Trump and pardons and lies, it is easy to want to retreat and stop paying attention. Don’t. It is precisely when things are hard that we must all lean into remaining vigilant and informed. www.democracydocket.com/opinion/10-t...

Just saying…

You are not powerless, and he is not unstoppable. Look at, and learn from, the funding freeze and how quickly he was forced to surrender.

Dems need to grow some teeth and get in the game. We want to see the resilient players to the front, not quitters.

Read it slowly and understand it. 😳🥺 Repost 👇🏾 👇🏾

This is appalling. USAID workers, please know that we think you are loyal, brave, and do amazing work. We appreciate you and Im so very sorry this has happened. Outraged on your behalf.
