We’re Democrats who are tired of crickets from national “leadership” when mobilization is needed. Follow us, we’ll follow back—let’s fight to win together.

All power to the people. We are strongest as a team. Sí, se puede. #landback #blm

Amen. Civic action includes being in conversation with the media about what matters to YOU. Tell them they need to report on this the way they would if it were happening to an ally: the GOP’s decades-long segregationist coup didn’t fail on J6—it gained momentum and is nearly complete.
Why the fuck is the front page of every single news outlet in the country not blaring "UNELECTED BILLIONAIRE STEALS DATA FROM HUNDREDS OF MILLIONS OF AMERICANS" (wsj particularly pathetic lol)
All your senators need to hear from you—not just the Democrats, although you should be sure to give them what-for. They are continuing to collaborate with fascism when they could be following the very easy @indivisible.org playbook instead. indivisible.org/resource/exp...

Friends, call your rep, but call your senators too!
Flood the Congressional switchboard…

Call your House member at (202) 224-3121…

Flood their phones.

Speaker Johnson is going to try to bring up Trump’s big budget cuts tomorrow.

With hundreds of billions cut from Medicaid, SNAP Food Stamps, Children’s Health Care, Veterans Health.

If you’re a constituent of David Valadao, Ken Calvert, or Young Kim you have more power to fight for Medicaid by making a phone call than 99% of Californians.

Call tonight, then call again tomorrow before 4PM

Federal employees, unions are advising not to respond to the “what did you do last week” email.

Everyone else—not saying you should necessarily email HR@opm.gov with your accomplishments to put up on the fridge, but if you felt so inclined, consider a temporary email like tempmail.altmails.com

We are now finding bird flu in deer mice and house mice in Washington State.

H5N1 is advancing along the evolutionary ladder—affecting birds, mammals, and humans. This is not speculation; it’s a timeline.

healthy cishet white people, take note. marginalized folks have been trying to tell you this

from my disabled perspective, one thing this means is you need to resume masking. there's no treatment/cure for Long COVID & there won't be with RFK Jr at the helm. protect yourself & your community
Act as if no one is coming to save you.

Three updates:
1. The Justice Department has deleted a database tracking federal police misconduct. The database was first proposed in 2020 following the police killing of George Floyd.

I remember when Attorney General Pam Bondi said she'd protect federal whistleblowers in her confirmation hearing.

Now they're being threatened with illegal "discipline, including dismissal."

Remember the days of "No one is above the law"?

Seems quaintly constitutional now.

🚨 Your House representative is now back home through February 23.

That’s where we come in.

With Trump and Elon Musk pulling off a billionaire coup in real time, this congressional recess is about turning up the heat like never before. Let’s get to work: indivisi.org/muskorus

Elon’s “efficiency” purge has fired the “probationary” employees at Medicare, including attorneys who ensure beneficiaries get the care they need and YOUR payroll taxes aren’t used on waste, fraud, and abuse. If you’re hiring and are looking for exceptional legal talent, please comment here.

Elon and his Tech Nazis are accessing your personal data illegally, and there IS something you can do about it. Contact your state's Attorney General, or your Consumer Protection Agency here: www.usa.gov/state-consumer. Fight back.

1/ Trump and Musk aren’t just replacing government officials. They’re replacing competence itself. Their goal isn’t efficiency—it’s destruction. Because when experts are gone, corruption thrives. Let’s talk about why authoritarians fear expertise.🧵👇 #Voices4Victory #DemVoice1 #USDemocracy #ProudBlue

Did you call Target? Wanna call them again?

Did you not call before because you thought it wouldn't make a difference? Wanna call them now?

LOL streets are saying Target is getting pressured to rollback to rollback. Co-founders daughters are publicly speaking out.

I've taken anti-depressants on & off for decades. They saved me during debilitating depression in college, and later after my father died suddenly and unexpectedly. They helped me be a good parent despite PPD and the long-term anxiety it produced.

Antidepressants help people. This is evil.
Trump’s latest executive order (that was no doubt written by psychopath RFK Jr.) goes after antidepressants.

As someone whose life was saved by them, you will pry my prozac from my cold dead hands.

Here is a script you can use for any issue. Find your reps' # at reps.fyi or 5calls.org. Every time you see a news story that horrifies you: call, or something else about it. It matters to say what you believe. You are setting a norm.
