In 30 days, LGBTQ+ youth will lose the life-saving suicide hotline—a program that’s supported over 1.3 million young people. When folks are in crisis, this admin chooses cruelty over care—every time. But this is the party of “family values,” right?

Immigrants are America’s workers. They’re vital to our communities, our country and our labor movement. An immigrant doesn’t stand between you and a good job. A billionaire does.

Tucked into Donald Trump’s “Big, Beautiful” spending bill is a provision to spend $46.5 billion in taxpayer dollars on building his long-promised wall along the US-Mexico border.

House Budget Resolution Leaves Families With Low, Moderate Incomes Worse Off, Wealthy Households Get Windfall www.cbpp.org/charts/house...

Let's be very, very clear. Shutting down the Department of Education won't save us a single penny. They’re taking money from students and teachers to give tax breaks to billionaires.

This needs to be mentioned in EVERY report and article about this debacle.

♿Social Security is NOT just for Seniors. It's also for people like me with Disabilities, people who receive Survivors Benefits & Veterans who receive Social Security benefits. Before I became disabled, I PAID into the program with EVERY paycheck. There are MILLIONS more like me & it is OUR MONEY!♿

What if, instead of talking to children the way adults talked to us in the past, we said to children the things we wished adults would have said to us?

“Having a librarian in a library is good.” THANK YOU, Abbott Elementary. Thank you, also, for the seemingly simple scene of how beloved it is to hear a book be read aloud 💚

Dismantling the Department of Education means defunding programs that feed, educate, and protect our most vulnerable students. NEA’s latest story breaks down the devastating impact this would have on students, families, and communities: https://bit.ly/3Ct46Nz

If our Christianity causes kids to go hungry, the sick to go without healthcare, the stranger to be unwelcome, and the elderly on social security they paid into to be called a “parasite,” all while billionaires get richer, we’ve profoundly misunderstood the most basic elements of Jesus’ teachings.

Section 504 would not even exist if not for the brave efforts of disability rights activists. I think there’s a lesson there. We need to fight with every lever of power we have as regular folks to protect these guarantees. They should be expanded, not dusmantled.

‘This is a coup’: Trump and Musk’s purge is cutting more than costs, say experts In slashing staff and disabling entire agencies the administration is lacerating the structures of US democracy www.theguardian.com/us-news/2025...

Trump has begun firing several hundred FAA employees. Guess who is visiting the FAA command center today to "suggest improvements"? Elon Musk, of course. The billionaire grift continues. https://apnews.com/article/doge-faa-air-traffic-firings-safety-67981aec33b6ee72cbad8dcee31f3437

Book bans impact public libraries & bookstores, but it’s school libraries where they are rampant ❤️‍🩹 Many kids are unable to make it to the public library. They can’t drive, often times the library isn’t in walking distance. It’s not that their grown-ups don’t want them to be library kids. 🧵 1/11

Folks, 69 million married women could lose the right to vote if the SAVE Act passes this week, along with millions of poor & rural Americans. Call your representatives. Before you don’t have any.

JD Vance is saying the quiet part out loud: the Trump administration intends to break the law. America is a nation of laws. The courts make sure we follow the laws. The VP doesn’t control the courts, and the President cannot ignore the Constitution. No one is above the law.

Donald Trump is making you pay more for beer so he can give tax breaks to the wealthy.

🚨Elon Musk’s DOGE operatives are attempting to access confidential tax information — tax returns, bank data, Social Security numbers — for millions of Americans. Illegal access can lead to jail time under federal law. @wyden.senate.gov and I are investigating and fighting back.

An important point to keep in mind.

If you wanted to cut waste, fraud, and abuse, you would empower the inspectors general. If you wanted more waste, fraud, and abuse, you would fire them.

It is perfectly legal to know your rights and to educate others about them, too. EVERYONE in the United States, citizen or not, has rights. I will not allow this administration to intimidate us from helping you know about them. Here’s our shareable guide ⬇️: (pt. 1/2)

This administration has convinced half the country that the real problem isn’t billionaires who evade taxes and collect government handouts but the working class who pay taxes and get nothing in return.

Here we go AGAIN 🤬 The SAVE Act would make it harder for millions of Americans to cast a ballot, this includes women who changed their name after marriage. We must spread the word to protect our democracy.
