I am in downtown Los Angeles right now and it is completely surreal to hear that Trump is sending Marines here. We are listening to mariachi music. People have dogs. There are teenagers here. It is utterly and completely peaceful. Please tell your friends.

For people who aren't in big cities or people who are in red states, these rallies and other actions can be lifesavers. If you think they don't matter, try viewing them from a different perspective.
They do i at least one thing which is get people to not feel so alone.
Less complaining about how big rallies don't do anything, more brainstorming about how to activate their attendees to get involved with targeted campaigns, direct action, and mutual aid.

A quick thread of charts showing how Trump’s economic agenda is going so far:
1) US consumers are reacting very very negatively.
These are the worst ratings for any US government’s economic policy since records began.

An oral history project aims to document the stories of the federal workforce cuts. The project is open to all feds and contractors — even DOGE and Musk.

Not getting much attention, but the Senate GOP is about to start voting - to make sure banks can charge higher overdraft fees. Seriously.
Good time to let your Senators know what you think of that.
