South Carolina right now...while Republicans chant "drill baby drill".

The world’s richest man is cheering on Trump tonight as guts essential services, slashes education, and hands even more wealth to the 1%. Billionaires win. Working people lose.

Donald Trump promised "tax cuts for everybody." To Trump, "everybody" just means billionaires.

Linda McMahon is all-in on Trump’s plan to gut the Education Department. As Secretary, she’ll rob funding from 50 million students and hand the cash to her billionaire friends. Tell your senator to vote NO on McMahon: smvmt.org/mcmahon

🚨Trump's Education Secretary nominee Linda McMahon just advanced to the full Senate. Trump & his billionaire buddies want to defund public schools and funnel the money into their own pockets. Tell your Senator: Vote NO on McMahon! win.newmode.net/sunrisemovem...

🚨 HAPPENING NOW: Trump's Education Secretary nominee, Linda McMahon is testifying in her Senate confirmation hearing. Her top priority will be to dismantle the Department of Education to fund massive tax breaks for the wealthy Tell your Senator: vote NO on McMahon. win.newmode.net/sunrisemovem...

The actual reason Trump wants to gut the Dept of Education? Greed. His billionaire donor pals want tax breaks. They all want to go back to when education was unavailable to working people, a privilege of the rich.

when the DNC chair listens to us and pledges to reject oil and gas bribes

Let's talk about Sunrise’s protest last night at the DNC forum. Some pundits on this site are missing the mark (intentionally or not). In order to win, Dems need to reject the billionaire influence that is shaping the Trump administration. substack.com/inbox/post/1...

Last night's tragic mid-air collision shows why we need to fund and staff critical agencies. Last week, Trump fired the head of TSA and launched a hiring freeze that included air traffic control staff. From air safety to pollution rules, Trump's cuts put our lives at risk.

only appropriate political response here is to demand the white house explain how its actions aren’t responsible www.huffpost.com/entry/trump-...

NEW — OMB temporarily pauses all agency grants and loans programs. Per copy of memo: "The use of Federal resources to advance Marxist equity, transgenderism, and green new deal social engineering policies is a waste of taxpayer dollars that does not improve the day-to-day lives of those we serve."

Trump’s energy agenda is to attack American renewable energy jobs and raise power costs and increase economic chaos. American workers lose, people who pay electric bills lose, and only the Big Oil Barons win. subscriber.politicopro.com/article/2025...

Oil and gas CEOs gave millions of dollars to Trump's campaign. Now, they are getting a hefty kickback in return. In just two days, the 15 richest oil and gas billionaires have already gotten $3 BILLION dollars richer. This is what oligarchy looks like.

@kenmartin.bsky.social, thank you for your commitment to get dark money out of politics and reject contributions from people who do not share the values of the Democratic Party. Will you sign our People, Not Billionaires Pledge to build a party that works for us, not the wealthy few?

On Day 1, Trump is keeping his promises to the oil and gas billionaires who buried him while throwing gasoline on the fire of climate disasters. "Drill, baby, drill".

On Day 1, Trump is enacting executive orders that hand billions to fossil fuel billionaires, dismantle green energy initiatives, and scapegoat marginalized communities. Trump’s actions make it clear whose side he’s on: the powerful and wealthy who bankrolled his campaign.

Trump's inauguration: billionaires and CEOs in the front, his cabinet behind them.

It's clear: "Fossil fuel CEOs are responsible for the destruction that is happening right now in Los Angeles." Big Oil Profits, LA burns. www.theguardian.com/us-news/2025...

The Sunrise LA occupation at Phillips 66 is still going strong. Dozens camped out last night and aren't leaving until they get a meeting with Phillips 66's uber-rich CEO to talk about companies like Phillips paying to rebuild LA. They caused the fires, they should pay.

“Fossil fuel CEOs are responsible for the destruction that is happening right now in Los Angeles. They are responsible for the fact that me and my neighbors had to evacuate our homes, that we still can’t drink our water.” - Simon Aron, 18.

BREAKING: young Angelenos who fled wildfires are occupying the Phillips 66 facility demanding oil & gas companies pay to rebuild LA. These companies make climate change worse while raking in TRILLIONS of $$ each year. They profit while we lose our homes. That must end.

BREAKING: Young people arrested while protesting the nomination of Chris Wright. We all deserve a government that works for our future, not greedy CEOs and their profits, and our generation is going to keep showing up until we get it.

BIG OIL PROFITS, LA BURNS "Fossil fuel executives like Chris Wright with tens of millions of dollars in oil and gas assets should not be able to run our energy policy. They want to fan the flames." - @markey.senate.gov with @sunrisemvmt.bsky.social this morning #LAFires #greensky

Chris Wright is a climate denying, dirty energy huckster who spent $400k on Trump’s campaign to buy the Energy Secretary role. We’re here with @delia.bsky.social, @markey.senate.gov, and @rokhanna.bsky.social , all united in a simple message: his nomination is a threat to our democracy and future.

Chris Wright has no business being our next Energy Secretary. What, so he can further deregulate his polluting industry? That’s why young people are demanding to be heard, because it’s our futures on the line if climate deniers and Big Oil continue to get their way.

"We are fighting for people who are living paycheck to paycheck while Elon Musk earns billions of dollars. Don't let us ever forget the people we are elected to serve." @delia.bsky.social

"Trump decided not to appoint a cabinet, but a cartel. They will undermine the clean energy agenda." @markey.senate.gov

We're outside fracking CEO Chris Wright's Senate confirmation hearing. As fires level entire neighborhoods in Los Angeles, the last thing we need is to put an oil CEO in charge of energy policy.

Today, we’re launching an open letter to DNC leadership candidates demanding DNC leadership: 1️⃣ Revive the Obama-era ban on corporate donations to the DNC. 2️⃣ Ban SuperPAC spending in Democratic primaries. The time to end the influence of corporate money is now.🧵 actionnetwork.org/petitions/a-...

Our future doesn’t have to be written in smoke and ash. Sunrise's Executive Directory Aru Shiney-Ajay writes about how the LA fires prove Gen Z’s fight for climate justice is more urgent than ever. www.hercampus.com/culture/la-f...

Los Angeles is burning. Entire neighborhoods have been wiped off the map. We are devastatingly unprepared for the climate that fossil fuel greed is creating. www.mobilize.us/sunrisemovem...
