Hi, BlueSky. It's Hillary.

I've joined up here to help get the word out about an important election in Wisconsin tomorrow, and other ways to defend our democracy against those who think votes can be bought.

Please share the ACLU’s efforts to keep DOGE from misusing our data:

Keep DOGE Out of Our Data
Trump has given DOGE unrestricted access to our personal info, from finances to health records. Join me in demanding accountability.

🚨Please call your house representative today and tell them no to slashing $800+ billion from Medicaid. This call to action is ESPECIALLY important for people who live in Republican districts. Please share far & wide and encourage everyone you know to call. 202-224-3121.

Cuts to Medicaid are deadly.

Jimmy Carter was the first candidate I cast my ballot for, in the first presidential election I was eligible to vote. Little did I know at the time it would be quite a while before I voted for another winning president. Such a good person. RIP.

Always good advice
My sappy request, as the person who used to send a daily reminder to be good to one another:
Be good to one another.
Maybe today surprise someone who's not expecting it with a small holiday gift or gesture. We can't control so much, but we can control what *we* put into the world. Choose goodness.

Trump wants to block the bill to protect journalists from having to reveal their confidential sources or from being surveilled. .

The bipartisan bill passed the Republican House earlier this year but who knows now. .

Signal alert- Trump plans to end freedom of the press in America

Hi Bluesky. I'm a blue check Twitter refuge looking for a home. You may know me from such hits as "finding the census record showing Stephen Miller's great grandmother never spoke English" and "finding the grand jury indictment for Tomi Lahren's second great-grandfather for immigration fraud."

The next few years are going to be tough, but just remember what Anne Herbert said:

"Libraries will get you through times of no money better than money will get you through times of no libraries."

The best time to join your local library is right now - if you have not already done so!

Trump says , “Republicans must kill this bill.” I’m hopeful that at least a few of them still value a democracy, which often requires that reporters are still able to protect confidential sources.
