Call the Capitol switchboard (202) 224-3121) every day and tell your representatives to defend the Constitution. That Nazi thug president tramples democracy every day. The concentration camps are here. We need our representatives to shout “Impeach!” All together. Every day. (Please repost.)

A MORAL CRISIS “The rule of law is being trampled. Innocent people are being disappeared. Court orders are being ignored. If you claim to love this country—if you believe in the Constitution, due process, order, and justice—this must be your line in the sand.” Take 3 minutes. This is important.

Election interference confirmed

Dwindling intelligence

CALLS ARE WORKING - it has bought us precious time, but we NEED to keep the pressure up. Tomorrow is the cloture vote. KEEP CALLING: (202) 224-3121 ☎️☎️☎️ Tell your Dem Senator to vote NO on Cloture and NO on the Republican spending bill. Do NOT assume your Senator will be good on this. Trust me.

Love Governor Tim Walz, this is what we need - our strong democratic leaders standing up!

This "rock art" is ancient, most likely from the Archaic period 5,500 B.CE. - 600 C.E. 'Love how it climbs into the sky. #MakersmARTch #noeduts #landscapephiyigraphy #petroglyph #southwest abiquiuartistsmarket.com/shop/karen-b...

Stand up! Speak out! The budget that the Republicans are trying to pass is going to hurt everyone but those who make $450,000 or more a year - pretty sure that's just about everyone.

Liz Cheney knows what she is talking about

Theme of the weekend Golden Hour. #bigviews #newmexico #sunset #skyscene

So ashamed of these "leaders" of our country

Republicans are pulling a reverse Robin Hood. The House could vote on its new budget resolution as soon as tomorrow. Call your rep to let them know how you feel about the GOP's plan to gut programs used by millions to fund tax cuts that will predominantly go to the richest Americans. (202) 224-3121

JD Vance - If you believe any of the multiple federal courts that have ruled against you so far are exceeding their statutory or Constitutional authority, your recourse is to appeal. You don’t get to rage-quit the Republic just because you are losing. That’s tyranny.

It’s clear that Donald Trump and Elon Musk are breaking the law and must be stopped. If we don’t—we could lose everything: our country, our democracy and our constitution. We must continue to take it to the Courts, to Congress, and to our Communities. We must keep making noise!

Call the Capital Switchboard every day

Taxpayers pay Elon Musk $8M a day and he’s already got 2 new government contracts totaling $38.4B since Trump came into office. DOGE isn’t about America. Boy didn’t want the gravy train to stop… youtu.be/j73qj9DbkWg

Love that Robert Reich provides this relevant information

When Trump was sworn in, Elon Musk's corporations were under more than 32 investigations conducted by at least 11 federal agencies. Most of the cases are now closed or likely to be closed soon, and the federal agencies are being defanged by DOGE. Funny how that works, huh?

Here is some beauty to enjoy #febuarty #photography #landscapephotography #cerropedernal #georgiaokeeffe

Welcome to the first DOGE Oversight Subcommittee! As Ranking Member, I will fight for the American people and THEIR interests, not the interests of billionaire oligarchs.
