What are you doing to save democracy this week? I’ll retweet anyones who has fun ideas they are doing to get out the vote or hold electeds accountable!

They never want to talk about the guns. Ever. Under any circumstances.

I fear I am becoming a “process focused” person over an “outcome focused” person mostly because the outcomes are so shortsighted. “Winning an election” - isn’t enough if we don’t build trust in or democracy and strengthen unions, organizations and our communities in the process.

Republicans are funding Trump’s war in Iran with over 1 trillion dollars in cuts to Medicaid. His stupidity is costing more than 15 million people their healthcare coverage. Let that sink in for a minute. We deserve better than this. Vote them all out of office in November! #HealthcareNotTrumpsWar

If you want dems to hold people accountable you need to call their offices, go to the the fundraisers and rallies and bird dog them to hold Trump and his admin accountable. Priorities aren’t magical, they’re the result of constant pressure.

I am so excited about @stevenmartin.bsky.social ‘s new substack taking about the American health care system! He is a fierce fighter, an unending advocate and a voice worth listening to! Check it out, subscribe and share!

Living with Leukemia-CML this past 10 years has been quite the journey. Now Im putting my thoughts together on my new Substack your support would mean the world. My first Article for Care, Or Something like it is Live! You're Not Bad at Taking Care of Yourself substack.com/@stevenrmart...

this is what it is all about right here. You can whine and scream and panic all you want but action is the only thing that can fix this

What are you doing this week to help a Democrat win a primary?

Sen. Mike Lee just said the quiet part out loud. He admitted the SAVE Act is about winning the Senate, not "election integrity." A literal confession of voter suppression. 🚨 Details here: www.dworkinsubstack.com/p/trumps-bra...

We know money in politics is bad, we know that congress is misaligned with public opinion, however incumbents have a massive reelection rate. There is a cognitive dissonance that cannot be explained entirely by money in politics.

I never want to hear people pontificate about open secrets again. This is why no one comes forward.

We need to do more than win in November. We need a massive blue wave. The only way to stop the MAGA shenanigans of the Trump regime is to win big, limit their power, and then do it again in 2028. Please follow the people on this list who are on the frontlines fighting for US. go.bsky.app/K6JGV3h

I actually think if you can take the time to make the caveats around indigenous communities, you can take the 3 seconds to say that Black American’s ancestors where systemically targeted and trafficked when you say “we’re all immigrants”.

Republicans in Congress separately voted to strip public broadcasting of its funding, and that damage is real. The Corporation for Public Broadcasting, which has kept local stations on the air for decades, is gone.

A federal judge ruled Trump’s attack on NPR and PBS unconstitutional. The First Amendment is clear: the government can't cut funding to a news organization simply because it dislikes their coverage. That is textbook viewpoint discrimination. The court called it out. But here is the hard truth.

If I seem to be talking about water a lot this week, here's why

Elon finally found an immigrant who committed fraud!!!

Voting should be free. The SAVE Act is a tax and makes it costly. Married women must buy birth certificates at $15-$50, passports at $165, or citizenship papers at $550 just to register. This financial barrier targets 69 million American women directly. #NoPayToVoteSaveAct

The $191 billion ICE slush fund came at expense of Medicaid, food assistance, and support for veterans. Republicans chose warrantless searches and brutality over compassion for American families. Remember in November! #FundDHSFreezeICE

Trump said he had a strong game plan to keep energy markets stable. The plan failed. Oil is soaring. Gas is climbing. Families are suffering. A strong game plan does not create economic chaos. A strong game plan does not require emergency meetings to fix its own damage. #TrumpsGasProblem

Back in 2017 it was seen as impossible to get rid of these republicans from California politics… Now… there’s only a few left. Dana Rohrabacher Mimi Walters Michelle Steele Darrell Issa Young Kim

No one ever accidentally gets a tattoo that signifies love and respect for black women… … but I’m supposed to believe that people accidentally get Nazi tattoos.

The only thing you can count on in this country is death, taxes, and our PROFOUND ability to restrict the vote in Black communities. And still we rise.

Grocery bills grew while Trump claimed he'd lower prices. Coffee, meat, produce - all up double digits. His policies directly contradict his campaign promises to working families. #TrumpAffordabilityMeltdown

I’m gonna be honest, the worst part about horserace-Campaign culture is that we OVER ANALYZE losses but don’t really look into the shortcomings if we win.

i say let them do it. if i were a senate democrat i would relish the opportunity to let the country know that republicans don't think you should vote if you are a married woman www.nytimes.com/2026/02/21/u...

Be sure to check out @grassrootsdemhq.bsky.social ! They’re going to be making content all weekend about the California Democratic Convention!

Trump and Republicans are pouring billions of your tax dollars into ICE raids and crackdowns, while gutting Medicaid and SNAP. Families are getting crushed by rent, groceries, and prescriptions. They chose fear and cruelty while working people are paying the price. #TrumpAffordabilityChaos

#TrumpAffordabilityChaos HOME OWNERSHIP IN AMERICA IS NOW A LUXURY AVERAGE AMERICAN INCOME $51K THANKS TRUMP

You’ve delayed marriage. Delayed kids. Delayed homebuying — not because you’re lazy, but because Trump’s economy made basic survival impossible. You didn’t fail the system. Trump's system failed you. #TrumpAffordabilityChaos

Anybody pretending the affordability crisis isn't real — from the president on down — does not know how to walk in the shoes of regular Americans. aft.org/affordability #TrumpAffordabilityChaos

Trump promised a booming economy. Instead, we got higher bills and daily drama. Guaranteed during his State of the Union address, he will tell us the bills we are paying are a hoax. #TrumpAffordabilityChaos

From firing huge chunks of our federal workforce, to defunding & deregulating agencies that keep our food & water clean, to invading countries for his Oil donors, raising your energy bills in the process - Trump’s policies are costing us all! #TrumpAffordabilityChaos

14 million households now owe past due utility bills. Trump didn’t create an energy boom - he created an affordability crisis that leaves families choosing between heat and hunger. This isn’t leadership - it’s neglect. #TrumpAffordabilityChaos

From firing huge chunks of our federal workforce, to defunding & deregulating agencies that keep our food & water clean, to invading countries for his Oil donors, raising your energy bills in the process - Trump’s policies are costing us all! #TrumpAffordabilityChaos

Today, the Trump administration repealed the endangerment finding: the ruling that served as the basis for limits on tailpipe emissions and power plant rules. Without it, we’ll be less safe, less healthy and less able to fight climate change—all so the fossil fuel industry can make even more money.

The House is voting *this week* on a new, worse, Trumped up version of the SAVE Act called the SAVE America Act. 🙄 Republicans are terrified of the midterms & are desperate to block as many people from voting as they can. Call your reps 202-224-3121. #HandsOffHerVote

most recent email i have received is a guy who told me i should be lynched. looked him up and he is a 68/69-year-old retiree in phoenix who doesn't appear to be married or have children. his facebook page is nothing but reposted memes and AI slop and he used to post a lot on gun forums

Abby Phillip’s babysitting shift continues: Trump posts a primate smear of the Obamas, the White House dismisses the backlash as “fake outrage,” and cable news lines up another panel to debate whether racism is racist. open.substack.com/pub/professo...

I am BEGGING the first time moms and the trans boys get together and have a conference, you both can’t be FTM.

Trump posting images of President Obama and First Lady Michelle Obama is neither shocking nor out of character. But neither is the internet’s reaction to it. So long as racism can only be conceptually understood as blatant speech or imagery, we will always be plagued by racists.

Where did these Epstein folks find the time to do anything given the volume of their emailing? It’s almost parodic how much they liked to chat about crimes in their dumb emails.

The measure of a nation is how it treats the vulnerable—not how aggressively it polices them. #FundHealthcareOverICE

ICE's budget could fund the ACA (healthcare) extension and expand Medicaid to millions. Instead, it funds home invasions, family separation, and killing protesters. Republicans made this choice for you. Remember in November... #FundHealthcareOverICE

A federal judge ordered the release of a 5-year-old boy and his father from immigration custody, condemning their detention as unconstitutional. In a blistering opinion, he denounced “the perfidious lust for unbridled power” and “the imposition of cruelty.” (NYT)

Federal forces on our streets is NOT NORMAL. The fear of federal agents is not normal. We demand our safety and our peace back. #ICEoffOurStreets

The Trump administration and the Republicans that enable him have spent the last year cutting programs that help US, in order to fund untrained thugs terrorizing our communities and murdering citizens. Our leaders have 2 weeks to rein them in! Keep up the pressure! #ICEoffOurStreets
