Send a message to giant companies ripping us off. On Feb. 28, don't shop online, in big box stores, no Amazon, no Walmart, no Best Buy, fast food nor gas. Just one day will send a powerful message. Think they'll miss our DEI dollars? Don't spend. Then, let them know why.

For America to work it must respect us all. MAGA Republicans want to seize more power by silencing, firing & detaining Americans based on what we look like, where we come from or who we love. Our ancestors fought to guarantee voting and other rights, It’s our turn to fight MAGA’s efforts.

We are a nation of immigrants, proud of our ancestry. Yet the White House demonizes migrants, despite their vital role in our economy. Who benefits from fueling hate and fear? Lies don’t justify terrorizing innocent people! #TruthBrigade truthbrigade.indivisible.org/s/ha4SpouJ

THIS is the person we need on the Wisconsin State Supreme Court! Someone who will uphold the law and the constitution! 🗳️ VOTE for Susan Crawford on April 1.

💥💥💥WATCH THIS! “Only an idiot would think we should eliminate emergency response in a natural disaster, education and health care for disabled children, gang crime investigations, clean air and water programs …” — @jbpritzker.bsky.social

Rep. Mfume: "DOGE = department of government evil!" Yes, IT IS!

This is huge! Trump is ramming his agenda through now, so he can’t be stopped later—shock & awe. But look at these approval numbers—he’s underwater on our major issues. Public opinion is against Trump & his policies—his approval rating is historically low. It’s only going to get worse… MUCH worse.

n America, we believe in opportunity for all. So it doesn’t seem very American to me when I see nasty attacks on businesses that promote inclusion. Makes you think, right? #DEI supports the American Dream. #TruthBrigade #TruthBrigadeIL

HAPPENING NOW 100s of NYers picketing outside @hakeem-jeffries.bsky.social BK office. We need action, not words. We need some obstruction, not bipartisanship with fascists! @indivisible.org @foodandwater.bsky.social @nychange.bsky.social @350brooklyn.bsky.social @moveon.org @nypan1.bsky.social

Join us Friday from noon -1:30 Central to create and post messaging to fight disinformation and spread the truth.

Most parents value a good education. Yet The White House calls science, history & critical thinking ‘radical’ while pushing to control curriculum. Who benefits from an uneducated public? Lies don’t justify taking learning away from our children. #TruthBrigade truthbrigade.indivisible.org/s/gMgQvAQM

The flood of Executive Orders from the White House is overwhelming, outpacing the lawsuits challenging their legality. Think: Is this by design? Chaos-creating demoralizes people & clouds opposition. Keep clear-headed: Lies don’t justify law breaking truthbrigade.indivisible.org/s/FkSIO5XD

@NWSOFA-Indivisible“Trump promised his upcoming tax cut to the very wealthy & corporations with two trillion dollars of cuts to Medicaid & Medicare. Medicaid, kids, poor families, Medicare, seniors." This is wrong! nwsofa.org @NWSOFA @GPADEMS #Voterizer #TruthBrigadeIL #Indivisible #Indivisibleil

Most of us want accountability in our government. You have to ask who benefits when Trump fired 17 Inspectors General? Facts show that Musk did. Our Democracy demands we stop this billionaire takeover. TruthBrigadeIL www.levernews.com/trump-purges...

Please keep calling the Capitol switchboard to protect us from shadow President Musk. 202-224-3121 ((☎️)) My family, my son, is at risk of losing his Medicaid waiver, Medicare and Social Security. No one voted for Elon Musk. Absolutely no one. #HandsOffOurMedicaid

TELL CONGRESS: You can't cut $2.3 trillion from Medicaid without hurting kids, grandparents in long term care, people with disabilities & struggling families. Our voice matters. Call your lawmaker now at 866-426-2631 and tell them: HANDS OFF OUR MEDICAID!

🚨🚨Millions of Americans rely on Medicaid for their health care, but MAGA Republicans, Trump and Elon Musk want to cut funding to give billionaires and the ultra-wealthy a $4.6 trillion tax break. We need to be as loud📢 as possible when we tell them #HandsOffOurMedicaid

ErinReed [Feb 7] -- 2nd lawsuit by--MN, OR, and WAS--filed to challenge ban on GAC. The 1st filed by ACLU/Lambda on behalf of 2 teens and 5 families for PFLAG. One family fled TN after care was made illegal; their daughter's Medicaid appt cancelled just 1 day before she was finally to be seen in VA.

Medicaid is NOT just a program, it's a LIFELINE for 80 MILLION Americans! Republicans want to CUT IT TO SHREDS to fund tax cuts for billionaires? NOT ON OUR WATCH! #HandsOffOurMedicaid

Senator Murphy lays out exactly what is on the line. "  There was a promise made to finance this tax cut with two trillion dollars of cuts to Medicaid and Medicare. Medicaid, poor kids, poor families, Medicare, seniors in this country." Hands Off Our Medicaid!

What do you think is more important? A billionaire getting a bigger yacht or a child getting healthcare? Republicans think the billionaire should get the yacht... #HandsOffOurMedicaid #TruthBrigadeIL #TruthBrigade

FACTS: "There are proposals from Republicans to cut $2.3 trillion from Medicaid." THIS is what it would do: It would destroy Medicaid. It wouldn't fight inflation. It wouldn't bring anybody's prices down. It would just steal people's health care #HandsOffOurMedicaid #TruthBrigadeIL #TruthBrigade

Every Republican in the Senate just voted to confirm Russell Vought. We’re going to hold them accountable for every piece of the Project 2025 agenda he implements and all the harm it causes to the families they’re supposed to represent.

Contrary to popular belief, Democrats aren't powerless right now. There are parliamentary guerrilla tactics that Senate Democrats can use to slow, stall, and obstruct MAGA at every turn: indivisible.org/reso...

New: We spoke to government IT employees/contractors about DOGE. Their warnings were dire. The people who maintain the systems that keep the country working are terrified. "This is the largest data breach and the largest IT security breach in our country’s history—at least that’s publicly known."

Caroline Kennedy: Bobby, "Lacks any relevant gov, financial, mgmt, or medical experience. His views on vaccines are dangerous & willfully misinformed. These facts alone should be disqualifying. But he has personal qualities which, for me, pose even greater concern." He's a, "predator " #RFKJr

Tim Kaine: "Trump doing a hiring freeze and putting somebody in as the chief guy in OMB who says he wants to traumatize federal employees -- we don't need to traumatize air traffic controllers. We need to hire more, train more, continue to have standards of excellence."

🔥 In 2017, we were regular people coming together to fight against hate while shining a light on all we're fighting for. We've never stopped working & in 2025, we're armed with new tactics and bold determination. Together we have power! Join us Saturday afternoon 1/25 in Chicago bit.ly/ContinueFight

Private prison firms contributed to Trumps campaign and will now profit greatly from the Lakin-Riley act and the immigrant round up -- they will be receiving federal funds to build private detention centers costing the US taxpayers billions of dollars.https://www.facebook.com/share/r/167cNPsmzn/

Americans value our freedoms so we watched in horror as violent insurrectionists attacked our country on January 6, 2021 incited by Trump & MAGA Republicans. Trump pardoned the few people who were held accountable for breaking into our Capitol, killing people & terrorizing our representatives.

No matter our races, genders or backgrounds most of us value our freedoms. Trump is doing the bidding of the billionaires who bought his way to power claiming the right to control our lives. Standing united we know that the many can defeat the money youtu.be/hNIB3C7NX7o?...

DUCKWORTH HAS BEEN FIERCE. Illinois friends, email our Sen. Duckworth thanking her for her leadership in opposing the completely unqualified Hegseth. Ask her to use every tactic to delay his nomination & encourage fellow Senators to vote NO. QUICK ACTION HERE: indivisiblechicago.com/oppose-hegseth
