The next Brookline Rally for Democracy will be on November 8th at 1:00 pm in Coolidge Corner. The rallies are now co-hosted by Speak Out Seniors, @activistevenings.bsky.social, and @brooklinepax.bsky.social. To sign up, please follow this link: mobilize.us/s/FCUYYT #Massachusetts #mapoli

To put this in scale, Elon Musk's salary from Tesla alone could fund the SNAP program for the entire country into 2034.

Who has standing to claim a 1st Amendment violation? The advertiser? How about the network? What about Major League Baseball?

It's why prosecutions should be based on (factual) probable cause and not on (fabricated) retaliation.

Someone please ask Trump what his opinion of “total factor productivity” is, please. (Yes, we know he's not competent to answer. That's why PAX Board Members have introduced a Brookline Town Meeting Resolution focused on Trump's mental capacity.)

Ridiculous outfits give the authorities lose-lose problems. Collaring an inflatable animal—or pepper-spraying the costume’s air-vent, as a cop did in Portland—seems heavy-handed. But restraint can look like a concession

When the president is destroying national landmarks, murdering fishermen, raising prices because he's angry over a Reagan video, and kidnapping parents in front of their crying children is probably not an ideal time to have a lazy, completely incompetent legislative branch perpetually on vacation.

FDR on the White House:

We are sadly in one of those times.

In just a few weeks, Brookline Town Meeting will take up the question of Trump's mental capacity to do his job.

Let them eat cake. #TrumpSucks

"We are closing up Democrat programs that we disagree with, and they’re never going to open again.” No, these are not Democratic or Republican programs—these are life-saving resources that help families make ends meet. This is illegal & everyone will be harmed.

What flag makes you feel safer in a neighborhood? I’ll start. 🏳️‍🌈 🙋🏻

Being in a union shifts the workplace culture. Unions empower workers to know their rights. AFSCME members like Eliana Holgate know how important it is to have a strong, unified voice with her coworkers. That’s the union difference.

Three Brookline PAX Board Members have petitioned a Warrant Article, and, accordingly, Town Meeting will be debating a Resolution questioning Trump's mental capacity to "discharge the powers and duties of his office."

That's PAX Board Member Jonathan Margolis with his upside down flag indicating America in distress.

That's PAX Board Member John Bassett!!!

Keep miller and trump at bay

"Narcissism of a pathological degree." In November, Brookline Town Meeting will consider a Resolution on the subject of Trump's mental capacity, sponsored by Brookline PAX Board Members.

WNBA popularity is getting a boost in Brookline, with a Warrant Article sponsored by a PAX Board Member to encourage a local franchise. Last night, the Town's Advisory Committee recommended "Favorable Action" on the Article, which will come to Town Meeting in November.

The stock market slumped to its worst one-day showing since tariffs roiled markets in April, as President Trump threatened to impose more tariffs on Chinese imports.

ICE claims assaults on its officers are up sharply since June. There's no public evidence that number is true.

We won't stand for this administration using hardworking Americans as pawns in a political game. America’s unions will see you in court, President Trump. aflcio.org/press/releas...

Trump is using working people as political pawns—but a public servant trying to pay their mortgage or for their kids’ medicine is not a game. Republicans can reopen the government and solve the health care crisis of their own making with one vote.

Two Brookline groups are co-hosting a small scale No Kings rally on October 18th from 1:00 to 3:00 pm: @brooklinepax.bsky.social and Speak Out Seniors. If you can't get to the big No Kings event in Boston, you're welcome to join us. #activism #Massachusetts #nokings mobilize.us/s/lpjxYl

America's unions will see you in court.

Last night, Brookline’s School Committee authorized the interim superintendent to sign a memorandum of agreement between the town and the schools to address the district’s ongoing budget struggles. brookline.news?p=47930&prev...

Every action we take makes a difference. Join Brookline PAX at our every Saturday Coolidge Corner stand outs. Bring a sign and bring a friend.

🤣🤣🤣

Headed to Coolidge Corner for the double header with @deborahelizabeth.bsky.social @brooklinepax.bsky.social

Some @brooklinepax.bsky.social guys

A worker making $50,000 a year contributes to Social Security on 100% of their income. A CEO making $20 million a year contributes to Social Security on less than 1% of their income. Instead of raising the retirement age, we should scrap the Social Security tax cap.

PAX, a 60+ y/o organization whose Board is overwhelmingly Town Meeting Members, isn't complaining. We're acting, sponsoring weekly standouts in defense of the Constitution & the Rule of Law, co-sponsoring immigrant protection training, and bringing pro-democracy Warrant Articles to Town Meeting.

Brookline PAX will be standing up for democracy tomorrow, at Coolidge Corner starting at 11am. Bring a sign and bring a friend. Silence is complicity, and this is not a time to be silent! www.mobilize.us/indivisible/...

PAX is delighted to co-sponsor: Standing Up for Our Communities: Bystander Training to Protect Our Neighbors Tue 9/16 7pm. Address upon registration (required). events.humanitix.com/standing-up-.... Designed to prepare you to document/respond legally/safely if you witness an action by ICE.

Starting next Saturday, double headers will be the norm, with the PAX stand out starting at 11 am and the Seniors at 2 pm. The events merge seamlessly. Bring a sign, bring a friend, and stay as long as you can.

Anti-abortion extremists are using junk science to spread lies about abortion pills. The fact still remains: mifepristone is safe and effective. We're fighting to make sure everyone has access to the medication they need, when they need it.

From organizing in the most critical swing districts across the country to supporting California’s ballot initiative, we’re fighting back to ensure we can flip the House and stop Trump’s extremist agenda. Sign up to fight back:

One of the most remarkable things of the last 9 months is how many Americans seem to believe the President is all powerful and Congress has no say. Actually Congress has been ineffective by choice. It has immense power if it had the courage to use it.

Good. President Trump doesn’t get to bully private institutions into bending to his ideological will.

RFK Jr. wouldn’t last a day in the shoes of the AFSCME members who work on the front lines providing health care. He’s a billionaire sellout who has wormed his way into our public health system & is now intent on decimating it to benefit greedy corporations at the expense of our health.

Across the country on Workers’ Labor Day, working people rallied to say they deserve freedom, fairness, security and an economy that works for them, not for billionaires and greedy corporations. America’s unions stand with all workers and are fighting for them every single day.

@brooklinepax.bsky.social It was a lovely day to dissent. #brookline #resist #fuckice

Heard during Brookline Select Board public comment last night: We're not a "well-organized special interest group like PAX." We'll accept that PAX is both special and interested. But well-organized? Really?

Please join us this Saturday for our weekly pro-democracy rally in Coolidge Corner, Brookline, Massachusetts! Peaceful. Inclusive. Multi-generational. mobilize.us/s/2fCEZC

16 Williams Street is a great example of Town Government "getting to yes" as quickly as required by circumstance. (Locals are saying it's too fast!) Also healthy: Five Select Board members meeting with Victory in an open meeting rather than behind closed doors.

We need to be visible in our opposition to Trump and his corrupt administration. Join PAX at Coolidge Corner on June 28th, 11am to 1pm www.mobilize.us/indivisible/...

The PAX sponsored standout is June 28th, 11am to 1pm, at Coolidge Corner (Beacon and Harvard), Brookline, MA.

AFSCME members don't hesitate to step up for their co-workers, families or communities. The Hometown Heroes Contest is a chance to celebrate the union members that make our union strong! Submit your nomination by July 8th by clicking here 👇
