The very LEAST we can do for these children is get them a ton of blankets, hats, gloves… where is Mayor Scott? Where are Senators Alsobrooks & VanHollen? When children are freezing, some people need a reminder: there’s no such thing as other people’s children! Incarcerated or not, there’s just kids.

Great 1 MIN ACTION you can take today! Our lawmakers should be focused on passing policies that keep us safe—instead, they're considering legislation that would gut our life-saving gun laws. I just sent a message urging my lawmakers to oppose it: etwn.us/3DGVCCY @Everytown @momsdemand.bsky.social

SAVE THE DATE: Maryland Moms Demand Action 2026 Advocacy Day is February 5! If you care about gun violence & can do only 1 thing this yr, this is a way to amplify your impact. With a show of force one day, ppl in power pay attention the rest of the yr. RSVP today: act.everytown.org/event/moms-d...

A not exhaustive but hopefully accurate list* of encouraging wins from last night for anyone who needs a pick-me-up: * updates, additions and corrections welcome in comments 1. Women elected as Governors of VA & NJ – which increases by 2 the high water mark of 13 women currently serving as Gov

Go figure! 😂

Don't forget about the dedicated Maryland Moms volunteers who show up every election cycle to support our VA sister-Moms!

Moms Demand Action is marking a historic win tonight as Virginia Moms Demand Action volunteer @abigailspanberger.com has been elected Governor of Virginia! 🧵

Loved this part...

Important. Stay organzied!

My fav thing about this is the $8million Michael Bloomberg spent to try to defeat Zohran Mamdani who got >250k more votes than the 745k votes Bloomberg bought for $73million in his first mayoral campaign -- about $100/vote. Billionaires, spend as much money as you want, you still only get 1 vote.

AOC: "This is about, do you understand the assignment of fighting fascism right now? And they assignment is to come together across difference no matter what."

👀 on this

Let's make hope & change cool again!

This is such good news -- Mainers are no liberals but they're practical and responded to a tragedy with the seriousness it demanded. #EndGunViolence

This right here 👇

BREAKING NEWS: Bernie Sanders officially comes out as a Bernie Bro Louder for the old white men in the back: It matters how we get where we want to go… and who we decide it’s ok to throw under the bus on the way there. www.axios.com/2025/10/22/m...

As predicted.

Love @ezralevin.bsky.social: "This is not the Trump Era. This is the #NoKings Era. Trump just happens to be living in it."

I’m sorry… what now?

Trump campaigning for the Nobel Peace Prize is the most cringe thing he’s done in his quest to be as cool as Barack Obama.

Maryland @momsdemand.bsky.social friends, can you help? #momsareeverywhere #momhugs #transrightsarehumanrights

Nonviolent resistance is the only way out of this. ❤️ ⚖️ Moral clarity in the face of inhumane repression. 💪 Solidarity in the face of fear mongering & violent intimidation. ☮️ Hope & action in response to those who want us anxious, exhausted, disconnected & resigned. Nonviolent resistance works 🕊️

Pro-tip: the people zip-tying kids or shoving the elderly down stairs are never the good guys.

💯

There it is

This is my biggest concern right now—that politically active people who know better are scared silent. What do you think is going to happen to you if you speak up and show your cards? I promise what will happen if you don’t is way worse. #resist

Shame on Apple & Google! Two of the largest, richest companies in the world obeying in advance, bowing to Trump administration pressure to infringe on our Constitutional rights while individual Americans #resist all day, every day. You 👀 weak - correct yr mistake asap! www.wired.com/story/apple-...

This.

bingo

I feel so helpless I can’t even wrap my mind around what’s happening to our country. Not knowing where to start, I donated* to the group mentioned in this article, but want to hear from others—what are you doing to feel less helpless right now? * already donate regularly to @aclu.org etc #resist

Worth your time as a reminder of the seriousness of this moral moment 💔

Under Biden, the American Rescue Plan cut child poverty in half. Under Trump, the #governmentshutdown means 6 million low-income mothers and their young children will go hungry. You tell me who you voted for, I’ll tell you what your values are. #republicanshutdown apnews.com/article/wic-...

Military families- I want to know what you think of this: “You kill people and break things for a living. You are not politically correct and don't necessarily belong always in polite society” Is that what you signed up for? How you see things? Is that who you are? www.war.gov/News/Transcr...

There are no words. A psychopath is sitting in the Oval Office, demanding illegal acts from OUR military. 25th amendment NOW!

I can’t believe I’m watching interviews of city mayors talking about how they are coordinating with other mayors to discuss how to protect their residents FROM THE PRESIDENT OF THE UNITED STATES I know we are “used to it” but it is absolutely insane

Protest works. #jimmykimmel apnews.com/article/jimm...

This.

Remember when Trump and the GOP campaigned on a platform of eliminating cancer research? Me neither. Who in America hasn’t lost a loved one to cancer? More people need to know about this. #fuckcancer #fucktrump #fuckthegop

Everyone should be held to the same standards.

Not sorry the #civilwar is #cancelled but maybe the irresponsible people out there firing this outta their mouths yesterday wanna just admit they wait every day with baited breath to tweet those words at the slightest provocation & chill the hell out? Most Americans don’t talk like this or want this

Cyndi Lauper has been my hero since I was a little girl dressing like her at Halloween! ❤️

As Trump ramps up his threats against safety and justice in cities that oppose his agenda, it is time for Los Angeles to show the country how to protect our communities. From cash aid to funding immigration legal representation, here's how local leaders can help keep LA safe for all:

Baltimore records historic homicide decreases as Trump continues his attacks ”…at the time things are getting truly safer in the city, you have the president of the United States telling the world that it’s not. Who are you going to believe?” Maybe not to guy who lies as much as he speaks?
