It is perfectly legal to know your rights and to educate others about them, too. EVERYONE in the United States, citizen or not, has rights. I will not allow this administration to intimidate us from helping you know about them. Here’s our shareable guide ⬇️: (pt. 1/2)

The cognitive dissonance of getting up every morning and making coffee and walking the dog and going to meetings and answering emails and wondering what to make for dinner while there is a real live actual coup d’etat happening is BONKERS

President Trump campaigned on lowering costs. But he’s letting billionaire Elon Musk and Project 2025 Architect Russ Vought kill the Consumer Financial Protection Bureau. If they succeed, CEOs on Wall Street will once again be free to cheat you out of your savings.

DOGE is reportedly threatening NOAA with massive staff and budget cuts. NOAA houses the National Weather Service and National Hurricane Center, which produce forecasts and warn people about storms. This attack on public safety is ripped straight from the pages of Project 2025.

A federal court just blocked Elon Musk from interfering with the federal government’s payments system. There is power in fighting back. We won’t let up until this block is permanent.

Murphy: "We need to act like a real opposition party in the middle of a constitutional and democracy crisis. That means we should not be moving forward nominees or legislation in the Senate. Ds should not be giving votes to nominee or legislation in the Senate until Rs get serious about this crisis"

This is a great start, but we need more Democrats to fight like Sen. @schatz.bsky.social! The Trump-Musk power grab is a constitutional crisis and Senate Democrats aren’t powerless: indivisible.org/resource/how...

Democrats aren’t powerless against Trump’s blitzkrieg power-grab. Senate rules are designed to protect the rights of the minority and Democrats have tools at their disposal to grind Senate business to a halt if Republicans try to ram through Trump’s extremist agenda: indivisible.org/resource/how...

is it good or bad that a billionaire oligarch with close ties to foreign dictators is currently downloading the most sensitive information the us federal government has about its citizens to his own private servers?

We won Round 1 against Trump’s unconstitutional power grab. But MAGA is ready for Round 2, as the White House has stated its intention to continue enforcing Trump’s illegal executive orders. Join us, @moveon.org, and @workingfamilies.org to discuss how we fight back: www.mobilize.us/indivisible/...

i think it is important to say that the open and explicit racism of the president and the vice president isn’t just uncouth or “controversial” but a direct attack on tens of millions of americans and a dereliction of their duty to represent the entire country

Let's be clear about what happened today: Donald Trump tried to cut a giant chunk of government funding — hurting preschoolers, seniors, and veterans. Trump's illegal shutdown is blocked for now — but don't forget that he tried to cut programs supporting working families.

The freezing of federal grants, the firing of all inspector generals, the immunization of political violence - does everybody not see what’s happening? In a blitzkrieg, Trump is trying to collapse our democracy - and probably our economy - and seize control. Call it what it is.

Trump's FTC chair Andrew Ferguson, whose first act was to "end DEI" at the agency, has shut down public comments on predatory pricing and other shady corporate tactics. The GOP’s nonsensical culture war is meant to distract you from corporate corruption and plunder.

Let’s talk about Direct File. It’s a free, easy way for people to file their taxes directly online with IRS. You keep your tax refund — rather than paying $150 to a sleazy tax prep company. It’s more efficient! But these Republicans want you to keep wasting money on TurboTax.
