Here is a script you can use for any issue. Find your reps' # at reps.fyi or 5calls.org. Every time you see a news story that horrifies you: call, or something else about it. It matters to say what you believe. You are setting a norm.

You begin to appreciate the pace of events: Hitler became Chancellor on January 30. The Reichstag burned on February 27. The Enabling Act was signed on March 23. Dachau opened the day before.

As an OT, if this were my patient I would recommend that as many falls as this guy has had, he shouldn’t be standing without a gait belt and a walker along with someone standing by. Maybe retire? 🤦🏼‍♀️🤷🏼‍♀️

As Trump tries to dismantle the Department of Education, remember that his plan to cut the corporate tax rate to 15% would give the 100 largest corporations a tax cut larger than the entire department's K-12 budget. Really think about how twisted this all is.

Hear me out — If parents call colleges freaked about their FAFSA data being leaked, schools may have to issue statements — which would reach a whole lot more families about how warped this is. Organizing isn’t always calling electeds. Sometimes it’s just calling people with a bigger megaphone.

Democratic lawmakers need to understand something: Imagine your house is on fire. Fire truck shows up. Firefighters get out. They look at the fire, then at you, and say: "Such a fire is a grave threat. This house will not sustain." And just stand there. This is how many of you are coming across.

This makes more sense when you remember 3 things: 1. He doesn’t want people who do their jobs, only what he tells them to do. 2. He wants to privatize everything so he can give contracts to his friends and donors. 3. Less oversight means he can get away with more.

Trump has begun his cruel mass deportations, and many good people are endangered and frightened. Know your rights and protect your community. This is an urgent moral call to action.

Important follow-up on my pinned report and my recent post about the takeover at OPM: The Washington Post has confirmed the claims below. There is indeed a takeover of the federal government happening that is being coordinated by people outside the government who have gotten access to U.S. servers.

BREAKING: Trump's budget office has ordered a temporary freeze on federal financial assistance, a move that could pause payments to states and households receiving aid like SNAP food aid. This is nuts.

These are not the actions of an innocent man looking to uphold the rule of law and defend the Constitution. They are the actions of a guilty, vengeful tyrant looking to silence his enemies and remove every check on his power. Coward. abcnews.go.com/Politics/doj...

Joe Biden stepped down and let someone sub-70 have a shot. The rest of the Democratic party needs to do the same. It’s not ageism. It’s realism.

Trump's deportation flights are draining military resources—costing up to $852,000 each, far more than DHS alternatives. With no reimbursement, the Pentagon is forced to divert funds from other critical priorities. This waste will have real consequences. MORE: www.cnn.com/politics/liv...

Bishop Mariann Budde wrote a book entitled “How We Learn To Be Brave”, published in May 2023. I went to buy it today and it is sold out in local bookstores! I will not purchase it from Amazon so I’ll put myself on a wait list and get it when it’s back in stock, but WOW, do I love this for her!
