To be clear, the book will be widely available, inexpensively, as it needs to be. You don't have to support the campaign to get the book. The purpose of the crowdfund is to give Gary resources to make the biggest possible impact in spreading the word in a cluttered difficult media landscape. Thanks.

(1/3) My friend Gary is an author and activist, Founder of an Indivisible Group. He says: "People ARE feeling urgency, showing up at protests, and eager to do more. BUT, if you asked them what they plan to do next, most will not know! THAT is a gap we need to fill. I'm going to fill it." (more)

(2/3) Gary is finishing a new book entitled YOU ARE THE POWER to be published early in 2026: a political roadmap for those wanting to do more. He launched a modest campaign on Kickstarter to help raise funds for an impact campaign. kck.st/4oa5ozD I'd love some to support but do check it out. Thanks.

We cannot allow AI and robotics to simply wipe out millions of decent-paying jobs. This new technology must benefit workers — not just Elon Musk, Sam Altman, and the other tech billionaires and CEOs of large corporations.

Zohran Mamdani is the bright future of the Democratic Party — brimming with excellent ideas about what working families need. I was delighted to chat with him earlier today. If you're a New Yorker, don't forget to cast your vote for him by Tuesday, Nov. 4.

Trump's approval ratings are tanking. He's flailing on the economy. He hasn't done squat to help working people. The Epstein scandal haunts him. Remember that every authoritarian action Trump is taking must be understood against the backdrop of his declining popularity.

Johnson is absurd and dangerous and needs to be called out!

Democrats are furious that the Trump Administration held a briefing on Capitol Hill today about U.S. military strikes on suspected drug boats. Only Republicans were invited. This is from Sen. Mark Warner D-VA.

We need a perpetual rally..

"Nathaniel Redmond, director of the Yale school of public health, said on Tuesday that the “horror, scale and velocity of killing” in El Fasher had left pools of blood visible from satellites" Pity the West simply does not have any tools to pressure UAE, which is the RSF's main funder and supplier

This is an incredible LIE being told by the guy that manages the agency that oversees the ACA. It's obscene how easily, how frequently and how dramatically these Trump folks lie to us. ✅Fact check from the extremely reliable @kff.org (& no, KFF did not retract this.)

The people yearn for (democratic) socialism (this one will make you cry)

"Talking" about health care later isn't going to do anything for people whose premiums are doubling or even quadrupling. Prices are getting locked in. "Talking" about this LATER is TOO LATE.

Decisions of the utmost gravity and consequence to life on this planet made by Trump unilaterally based on completely false understandings. But one thing's clear. He really admires Rocket Man.

This infuriates me. While breast cancer is much more rare among men, they DO get it. I have a friend who's a male breast cancer survivor. Making people starve/die bc political ideology is what fascists do. #BreastCancerAwareness

Let me be very clear. It is not enough that RFK Jr. was forced to admit today that no causal relationship between Tylenol and autism has been shown. We know that while disinformation spreads like wildfire on social media, corrections most often die on the vine.

Congress has provided a contingency plan for SNAP to keep the program going for years in case of a shut down. The USDA sneakily took the plan down. Now blue states are suing to continue benefits for their constituents. Where is the money going? #ProudBlue#Voices4Victory #OneV1 apple.news

RIPPING US OFF: FBI Director Kash Patel met his girlfriend at Penn State this past weekend to watch a wrestling match—but his travel to the university stadium appears to have been on the American public’s dime...again.

Why is it that every disappeared US citizen is not front page news? At the very least we should have a little box with a count of the number of citizens who have been taken away and are not locatable and a link to a story with photos & min-bios, just as we used to do with military casually figures.

Rep.-elect Adelita Grijalva has now been waiting 36 days to be sworn in to office — setting a new record that any member of Congress has had to wait following a special election.

Yikes! I hate hearing Nuclear and Trump in the same post

Boycott Starbucks!

Really good point when framed in this way. Talk it up.

Toxic disparity

Trickle-down economics? HINT: What you’re feeling on your back ... is not rain.

A good idea. Wikipedia is a valuable resource that Trump can’t control

Donald Trump is the first president in US history to deny food to citizens.

We can’t forget Epstein

NEW: The Trump administration is racing to deport Kilmar Abrego Garcia as soon as Friday, conceding it does not intend to follow through on his criminal case despite earlier assurances. w/ @joshgerstein.bsky.social www.politico.com/news/2025/10...

My two takeaways on this: 1. CNN's CEO is utterly craven. No surprise there. 2. The White House is getting very nervous about how poorly the demolition of the East Wing is going over with most Americans. Good.

The opposite of backing down

Trump is the path to the dark side 🥹

Don’t use Amazon, get off Facebook, don’t buy a Tesla. Loving Talarico.

Trump promised to drain the swamp—but he’s FLOODING it with corporate cash Huge checks for the Pentagon, his golden ballroom & gilded plane come with strings attached Corporations will want payback—at the public’s expense I explained on @thebeat.msnbc.com👇

If we made it a crime to accuse others of that which you yourself are guilty, and made it punishable by death, we could eliminate almost all of the Republican party. Hypothetically speaking.

Taking action that makes a difference

Do folks know that if you add something to your "watchlist" on ebay the seller will often send you an offer to buy that item for a discount? It's like asking "what's your best price on this?" but, like, silently. Just mentioning this in case you're into reusing things instead of buying new.

More miserable lies won’t change the facts: federal law ALREADY prohibits any undocumented immigrant from receiving Medicaid, Medicare, or coverage under the ACA.

How many have you read?

Reporter: "There are reports that China is pressuring you to not support independence for Taiwan in exchange for a trade deal?" Trump: "Well, I'm not going to talk about that."

Rachel seems particularly partial to the pun signs. What were your favorites from Saturday?
