WOW — Heather Cox Richardson and Jasmine Crockett together?!🔥 Trump started implementing Project 2025 on his first day back in office. I can't imagine two more informed and empowering women to show us how to fight it. I just signed up — join me! social.redwine.blue/s/DD5aXjKz

CALL TO ACTION: Call your representatives at (202) 224-3121 and ask what criteria they plan to use when “vetting” their constituents.

This! 💯

WYOMING: “Thank you, Madam chairman.” “I prefer ‘Mister’ chairman.” “Well you all voted preferred pronouns cannot be compelled speech.”

I’m George Takei and I approve of this message.

These 44 Republicans voted against forest management wildfire prevention in December.

Trump got the questions ahead of time from Fox. Exactly what he always accuses Democrats of. What a surprise. www.cnn.com/2025/01/08/m...

HOLY SMOKES: Hakeem Jeffries just handed the Republicans members of Congress their asses live on the House floor. Must-Watch: 🔥

Just leaving this here—you know why.

Liberals created Social Security & lifted millions of elderly people out of poverty. Liberals ended Segregation; passed the Civil Rights Act, Voting Rights Act. Liberals created Medicare, passed the Clean Air Act, Clean Water Act. What did the Conservatives do? Opposed every one of those programs.

So the guy, Billy Long, that Trump picked to run the IRS made a crap ton of money encouraging small businesses to commit tax fraud by wrongfully applying for the employee retention tax credit from the pandemic. (No paywall) www.nytimes.com/2024/12/24/b...
