Tomorrow, February 28, let’s disrupt the status quo by spending ONLY at businesses that uplift our communities. That means: 🚫 No gas from corporate giants 🚫 No fast food chains 🚫 No big-box retailers (Target, Walmart, Amazon, etc.)

🧵RFKJr said the measles outbreak that led to the death of a child is “not that unusual” (links below). That’s a lie. It IS unusual because we have the ability to have NO measles outbreaks. But with falling vaccine rates, we are seeing yearly outbreaks of increasing size (links below).

I need Senator @ossoff.bsky.social and Senator Warnock to do this in Georgia as well. Between Emory, the CDC, and all the EPA / USDA / USAID employees laid off, and Gov Kemp being in lockstep with Trump about it, the people of Georgia need to be heard and assured who is fighting for us.

If the Democrats bail out Mike Johnson on ANY spending bill, they deserve the utter political destruction coming their way. Some are already falling for the "but we'll get blamed for shutting down the government" b.s. Have you learned NOTHING? Not. One. Vote.

Van Hollen: "There's no Article 4 in the Constitution that gives Elon Musk that authority, and the way he's been 'delegated' this authority is illegal, and the actions he's taking are illegal, and we need to shut down this illegal operation."

Crockett: He went from being the dork that was jumping around on stage to allegedly being this amazing genius that's gonna save a country he wasn't born in, and one that maybe he doesn't agree w/the idea of a democratic republic, considering the fact he may have been more on the side of apartheid.

DOGE recommended firing workers at: -FDA, which oversees Neuralink -FAA, which oversees SpaceX -USAID, which probed Starlink -CFPB, which oversees Tesla's financing arm and a potential payment platform on X. "Conflict of interest" is a severe understatement.

Crockett: "Down in Alabama, who's broke. Down in Louisiana, who's broke. I can go through pretty much the entire south and tell you that they're broke and rely on a lot of welfare from the government. To be perfectly honest, it is tax dollars from these big blue states...we're in the find out phase"
