🔥DEAR CONGRESS: American people have been SALIVATING & WAITING for someone like Rep Al Green to stand up DIRECTLY to Donald Trump as Rep Green did in Congress Tuesday. There are only a HANDFUL of you who will. Democrats don't have power to override Republican actions, BUT WE WANT TO SEE THE PASSION!

Wrote up something about Techdirt's recent coverage, and why (whether we like it or not) we need to be a "democracy blog" now, rather than just a "tech" blog (not that we've ever been just a tech blog). This story is *the* story and it impacts everything else. www.techdirt.com/2025/03/04/w...

As an American Citizen, I'm deeply AGAINST these unwarranted & OUTRAGEOUS tariffs to Canada. These are POWERFUL words by Canadian Prime Minister Justin Trudeau and I applaud him for standing up for Canada and America. He KNOWS the majority of Americans AGREE with him! www.youtube.com/watch?v=wz_4...

@schiff.senate.gov @padilla.senate.gov Most seniors rely on Social Security to survive. They paid into the system their whole working lives, it’s their money. Keep DOGE out of our Social Security!!!

I got laid off today, with the rest of 18F. 18F was an elite federal software shop. We made gov't websites work better, more efficiently for the American people. We saved taxpayers from getting screwed over by contractors. And were fired for it. We made this website to tell our story: 18f.org

The blackout doesn’t have to end today. Commit to spending your dollars locally so they stay out of the hands of mega corporations and billionaires. Follow our boycott guide and continue to support micro economies in your local town or city. #50501movement #PeoplesMovement #FiftyFiftyOne

"One of the great tragedies of mankind is that morality has been hijacked by religion. So now people assume that religion and morality have a necessary connection. But the basis of morality is really very simple and doesn't require religion at all." Arthur C. Clarke

@schiff.senate.gov @padilla.senate.gov STOP approving all cabinet nominees until Musk’s Doggies get out of our Federal agencies. Their acts are illegal. Do not waiver, hold strong. Kick some ASs!

Heard the same from a source at USAID this weekend, and that the security personnel protecting the SCIF from unauthorized entry have been placed on a leave.

So how can a band of “Muskateers” ride rough shod into any Federal agency they want without impunity? How is this being allowed? If you’re only worried about the price of eggs, you’ve got a bug surprise coming!

Nothing like attending funerals for several family members within a few weeks to prompt one reflect on their own life. How do you spend the precious time you have on this earth? Love more and live your best life. đź’”

The most common question I receive is how everyday citizens can help in the fight for democracy. My advice, take the first step, start with something small and see what works for you. Here are ten things all of us can do. www.democracydocket.com/opinion/10-t...
