President Musk keeps lying about our movement — Republicans are mad because we’re building the local power that’s exposing the MAGA agenda. We rely on grassroots donations to support our nationwide organizing to hold the GOP accountable. Please pitch in if you can: secure.actblue.com/donate/indiv...

Agreed. (NB: This is not the real Jack Smith, but that doesn’t make him wrong.)
Activism without pragmatism is just angry people yelling at clouds.

If you think there’s no resistance because protest demonstrations are few, it is there all right. It’s just really busy organizing, as this article covers. If you’re anti-MAGA, there’s probably a place for you.

Trump resistance groups are giving activists room to grieve, but they are ready to harness public concern about his policies.

Update: our press person DID talk to them. They declined to talk to me or Leah, but wanted to talk to locals (no prob there - we regularly make those connects). We connected to our locals, but they didn't use any of that. Sounds like they used what they needed to tell the story they wanted to tell.
I just listened to today's NYT Daily. For what it's worth, Indivisible is seeing call numbers and group engagement levels we haven't seen since 2017. NYT didn't talk to any Indivisible group leaders or anyone on the Indivisible team for this though. podcasts.apple.com/us/podcast/t...

When MAGA leaders accuse some of “them” (identity often not specified) of something, we should all seriously consider the possibility they are projecting what they are doing or planning to do. Though in some cases we can be pretty certain of it!

Hi everyone.
The Onion, with the help of the Sandy Hook families, has purchased InfoWars.
We are planning on making it a very funny, very stupid website.
We have retained the services of some Onion and Clickhole Hall of Famers to pull this off.
I can't wait to show you what we have cooked up.
