Three things. 1. Let our allies in other countries know that we support them.2. Participate in boycotts. 3. Find a place for joy and enthusiasm in your day. Those are both forms of resistance. Love your neighbors. We can do this.

Some good trouble for today. Call ALL of Mike Johnson’s offices and ask if Musk and Thiel have gone too far? Will the HF be left out of the coup?😭 Go find and read these articles for context. Also call CBS and ask them to lay off of the propaganda polls. It’s unbecoming of a respected network.

1. Yes, it’s a coup. 2. Doge is not a thing. The president is not legally allowed to create a department without congressional authorization. 3. Musk closes agencies investigating his companies. Chart by Malika Khurana of the NYT, and go find the article by Bryan Metzger of Business Insider

This will only take a moment. Call your US House representative, and say NO to HR22 - The SAVE Act. 202 224 3121. It will disenfranchise millions of voters. Hang in there, everyone.

Here are three ideas for today. 1. Praise the members of congress who are standing up to fascism. (Call, email, tweet, etc.) 2. If you’re concerned about your personal information exposed in the treasury breach, freeze your credit on all three credit bureaus. 3. Be generous with someone today. ✌🏼💗

Bad news and good news. Bad things are happening, but we can clearly see that now. The veil has been lifted, which gives us an opportunity to make informed choices. We can educate ourselves, act, create, PLAN, and love our neighbors. (No need to waste energy arguing with others.) We can do this.
