What we’re doing is working. Take two minutes for this one—it won’t just make you feel good—you’ll be fired up and ready to go.🔥

Meanwhile, big thumbs down (again) to meta who appears to be suppressing the posts of @hcrichardson.bsky.social . Several of her most recent historical analysis columns have been removed. #firstamendmentviolation

Ups and downs today, per usual. But more WAY ups than we’ve had in a long while! Congratulations to Senator Booker on his record breaking, history making, and inspiring speech. And congratulations also to (projected winner) Susan Crawford; Wisconsin voters did not let EM buy their Supreme Court!

The Trump administration on Tuesday eliminated the entire staff of a federal program that helps low-income households pay utility bills, sources say.

Musk money meaningless in a true democracy!

Dear CDC friends. Today was the most foolish of April Fool's days. We have not just lost jobs. With entire teams and offices being cut, we have lost vast amounts of institutional knowledge. Take the time you need to grieve. Then join your fired colleagues in the fight. www.firedbutfighting.com

Yesterday the 25 % pump. Today the 25% dump. Not suspicious at all. You muggs...

Groups tied to Elon Musk have already spent more than $4.2 million on the Wisconsin Supreme Court race—a clear sign that his plans for oligarchy extend well beyond Washington.

Power isn’t worth much if you use it to lick boots.

You can either support the United States of America and our democracy, or you can support trump. You cannot do both.

Per @chrisdjackson.bsky.social on another platform: “It took me 30 seconds to find at least ten postings from Zelensky directly thanking the United States for their support. There are many more. This is pure BS.”

🚨 PLEASE TELL EVERYONE YOU KNOW THAT IN SOME STATES MEDICAID IS CALLED BY A DIFFERENT NAME.... BUT.... IT IS MEDICAID and subject to EXTREME CUTS🚨 This FIGHT is NOT OVER CALL YOUR CONGRESSIONAL REPRESENTATIVES 202 224-3121 (ty to @tonolatino.bsky.social Sylvia for this info)

Y'all, when Elon starts launching the paid protestors line at @indivisible.org, you know that what you're doing is working. Keep it up. And in case you needed a reminder, the next congressional recess is March 15th-23rd. And it's going to be loud. Let me be clear: we will not back down.

If we capped wealth at $999,999,999 we could invest almost $5.9 trillion into improving our country. And if you’re upset at transferring wealth down, why are you ok with how we pass laws to transfer wealth up— from the working class to billionaires? Billionaires shouldn’t exist.

This, right here…👇

Terrifying but true.

“To my Republican colleagues, did you ever imagine that you would be in a party that stands on the side of dictators… Aren't you embarrassed by what you've become? It's revolting to watch my colleagues side with Russia because Trump said so.” www.rawstory.com/becca-balint...

Trump is a fucking traitor who’s in bed with Putin. He’s a traitorous scumbag who’ll go down in the history books along with the worst of all the other traitors. Damn him to hell.

How the GOP tax plan will impact you

People are starting to see why Elon was fired every single time he was put in charge. They wouldn’t even put him in charge at his shitty mapping software company. He’s a moron and absolute fraud who had to buy the achievements of better men and women.

There are more of us, they’ve just been louder, until now. But now we not only have to be loud, we have to be aggressively resistant!

So powerful! youtu.be/JbSnuHSGhGA?...

El Capitan displays a massive American flag upside down—the traditional signal of distress or extreme emergency.

“A video shared by Tarrio on social media on Saturday showed him following the officers, Michael Fanone, Harry Dunn and Aquilino Gonell, through … a Washington hotel that was hosting the Principles First summit, a conference where one of the officers received a ‘profile in courage’ award.”

BRAVO to Maine Governor Janet Mills for slapping petty tyrant trump in the face with her calmly defiant "see you in court." THIS IS HOW IT'S DONE. 🔥🔥🔥

Is there a code of silence by former presidents that prevents them from forcibly speaking out against the taking down of our country? #SilenceIsNotAnOption #BarackObama #BillClinton #TheBushCenter #GeorgeWBush #ProudBlue #DemsUnited #DemVoice1

Use as you please.

Remember: politicians work for YOU. Don’t let them forget that.

🚨NEW: Defense Secretary Pete Hegseth is planning to fire Chairman of the Joint Chiefs of Staff C.Q. Brown, a 4-Star General and 41-year veteran of the Air Force who flew over 130 hours in combat as a fighter pilot. REPOST if you stand with General C.Q. Brown against Hegseth!

Our criminal president is currently holding office unconstitutionally. The 14th Amendment expressly forbids him from holding office. But SCOTUS found a way to let him. He’s also constitutionally barred from a 3rd term. They’ll find a way to let him.

As flu rages, the Trump administration has pulled the plug on a Centers for Disease Control and Prevention flu immunization campaign that targeted high-risk groups, including pregnant women.

CALL ANYWAY! "I'm only one person, what could I do?," said 300M people. If nothing else, we can annoy them, & we'll know we did our best, leaving nothing on the table. You can leave a message at any hour, any day. MAGAs are calling. THEY COUNT CALLS - YEA or NAY.

CISA – a federal agency that helps secure elections from foreign threats and disinformation – has placed its employees on administrative leave. The move puts the security and integrity of elections in the U.S. at risk.
