please urge everyone to put pressure on Hakeem Jeffries and Chuck Shumer to get all Dems to vote no on the continuing budget resolution. That's who we all need to contact, regardless of our state.

During the Obama admin, Ebola was contained through rapid response, tracking, and global coordination. Current cases in West Africa highlight the need for strong policies. Under RLK’s weak disease reporting and prevention strategies, outbreaks could escalate, leading to catastrophic outcomes.

I just called my reps with @5calls.org, you should too: 5calls.org

Voting is your power to shape policies and protect your future. Register early, know the issues, and vote in every election—local and national. Every vote counts, and staying informed ensures your voice is heard. Encourage others to vote too. Change starts with you!

Downsizing the CDC, FDA, and NIH weakens our ability to fight deadly outbreaks like Ebola, which, without early detection and treatment, has a 90% fatality rate. The 2014-2016 crisis proved these agencies are critical. Cutting funding risks slower responses and more lives lost.

​A measles outbreak in Texas has escalated to 146 cases since late January, primarily among unvaccinated children. Tragically, a school-aged child has died—the first U.S. measles death since 2015. Health officials emphasize that the MMR vaccine is a safe and effective way to prevent measles.

My inbox is flooded with donation requests—many disguised as surveys. I once donated, thinking it was for Social Security advocacy, only to have the funds go elsewhere. ActBlue ignored my complaint. Now, I donate only through official campaign websites to ensure my money goes where I intend.

House and Senate Democrats hold news briefing on Trump and Elon Musk shutting down USAID, LIVE PBS NewsHour, Watch and share at www.youtube.com/watch?v=siF0...

Tulsi Gabbard cozied up to war criminals like Bashar al-Assad and refused to condemn his atrocities. Her record demonstrates that she is unfit to lead our intelligence agencies. Make sure your senators hear from you about Trump's dangerous pick. app.sosha.ai/s/jSauG1Zc

Confirming Russell Vought would accelerate Trump’s plans to dismantle our democracy. I just contacted my senators and urged them to oppose Vought's nomination as OMB director. app.sosha.ai/s/U2cCejhY

The HHS protects our lives with programs that depend on scientific research and proven health solutions. RFK Jr. can't be trusted to lead an agency so vital to our health and safety. Make sure your senators hear from you. app.sosha.ai/s/vq5By0Xv

Kash Patel is so extreme that Trump's handpicked attorney general blocked his appointment to a top FBI position. Now, Trump wants to put Patel in charge of the FBI. Make sure your senators hear from you. app.sosha.ai/s/3TMcTfIv

The last day of our @schumer.senate.gov call relay. We are calling about a nom so terrible, we are doing him AGAIN: Russell Vought. End the week strong by telling Chuck it should be all opposition All. The. Time. Stop the “bipartisanship” talk, we need a leader that fights. @indivisible.org

Awesome!!

Couldn't have said it better.

Trump “firehoses his opponents with a lot of crazy talk” on purpose, says The Atlantic staff writer @radiofreetom.bsky.social. It’s part of his strategy, but Nichols advises not to get caught up in every little outrage. “If you keep sprinting, you’re going to wear yourself out.” #Velshi

In a perfect world where norms held, Biden wouldn't have to consider preemptive pardons. But what's the right call when you know the lawless vengeance brigade is massing at the gates? Looking forward to discussing on with @nicollewallace.bsky.social on MSNBC at 5:30 PM ET.

Thanks, @nicollewallace.bsky.social for letting me amplify my decision to leave the LA Times. It's terrifying that Trump even hasn't taken office and 2 of the country's leading papers have capitulated to his power and threats. x.com/Acyn/status/...

Everybody’s wondering why Trump would appoint deeply unqualified and incompetent people to senior intelligence positions. Is it possible they are Trojan horses? hartmannreport.com/p/are-trumps...

Incompetence and conspiracy theories meet a deadly virus: Will history repeat itself, or will we face an even deadlier disaster with unprepared leaders at the helm? hartmannreport.com/p/the-next-p...

Donald Trump wants you to believe that he is all powerful and that if you fight back you will lose. He wants you to believe that if you fight back you face danger. It is time for us to build not a temporary resistance but a long term opposition.

So even before being sworn in, Trump is caught lying about, and is called out by an actual leader, President of Mexico Claudia Sheinbaum. Trump is determined to make America a laughingstock around the world.

Neoliberalism’s death grip or a New Deal revival? The stakes in an upcoming Democratic Party election couldn’t be higher... hartmannreport.com/p/americas-f...

📺 VoteVets Senior Advisor MG (Ret.) Paul Eaton Discusses The Absurdity SecDef Nominee Pete Hegseth: "Can you imagine what they are thinking if a guy like Hegseth walks into the room to take charge of the Defense Department? I know what I'd be thinking.."

Ever wonder what drives people to act? It's all about answering 'What's in it for me?' Reaching diverse audiences means tailoring messages to their values and where they get info—TV, social, podcasts, or trusted local voices. 🌍💡 #Communication #Diversity #CriticalThinking

Why is Hunter Biden's pardon dominating the headlines when Trump’s proposed cabinet is stacked with unqualified individuals & criminals? Let's focus on the real threat to democracy & hold the media accountable for amplifying distractions. #SaveDemocracy #MediaBias #Accountability

Think you got a steal of deal this Black Friday? Think again. Here's how Amazon is allegedly using its mammoth size to rip you off.

This isn’t the first time America has had a tyrant in the White House, or been rescued by an independent press. It’s a hopeful Thanksgiving story: hartmannreport.com/p/truth-vs-t...

Donald has gotten away with one of the greatest crimes against America. Despite the disastrous failures of Republicans, Merrick Garland, and SCOTUS, we must remember those who suffered on Jan 6 and continue to fight for justice—for them and our democracy. www.marytrump.org/p/above-the-...

Cucumbers shipped to the U.S. and Canada, and organic eggs sold in 25 Costco stores in five southern U.S. states, were recalled this week for potential salmonella contamination.

I talked with Katie Couric on her "Next Question with Katie Couric" podcast to preview what we can expect when Donald Trump returns to the White House. I hope you'll take a listen: open.substack.com/pub/stevesch...

This is still a great country. This is still a resilient country. We are still a united movement. And believe us, this fight is not over. youtu.be/MHAW38GSLlo?...

Anyone, any entity, anywhere in the world can just pay him any amount (for anything he promises in return), and there's no disclosure of the payments, no oversight of any of it by anyone, and of course no potential bribery prosecution (of him) because... immune. www.nytimes.com/2024/11/24/u...

Trump is already putting our military and our national security at risk.
