Washington State law makers want to start charging drivers based on how much they drive. More of taking from people who are already struggling instead of making giant organizations such as Amazon pay for their share of maintaining infrastructure their businesses rely on

Agreed. The use of Starlink for voting stations is highly suspect.
This feels true to me.

You are not powerless, and he is not unstoppable. Look at, and learn from, the funding freeze and how quickly he was forced to surrender.

When I was a Hill staffer in 2009, a Dem trifecta was trying to pass universal healthcare. In response, Senate GOP released a memo detailing all of the tactics they in the minority could use to delay the effort as much as possible. I'm recirculating that 2009 GOP memo here. Take inspiration from it.

Jasmine Crockett: "The problem is that Americans thought it was okay to take a full fledged criminal and make him the President of the US and then they want to act aghast when he does criminal things. Let me tell you, we have a thug in charge of the US and if we don't wake up we may not have a US"

I honestly believe our most powerful position in a toxic time that feeds on cynicism, apathy,& despair is to genuinely care and act for a better world.

Cynicism is our enemy. We should check it, incl. on the left. It’s not intellectually superior. It’s the virus they’re trying to infect us with. NO

Pushing unconfirmed information is irresponsible. Period.

People with a platform, like me, must uphold that.

Sorry if that truth hurts your feelings.

Yes, this administration is dangerous and cruel, but they are also shockingly dim and incompetent.

Opportunities are everywhere.

Make everything as hard as possible. Resist every demand. Refuse entry without a warrant. Don’t take the buyout. Their problem solving skills are 📉

It’s important to know that a lot of productive activity is happening in person and offline, too.

Not all of it can be broadcast online, but we’ve had hundreds of people showing up to our trainings, mobilizations, and more.

Keep going. Tyranny is eroded by a sea of small acts. Everything matters.

All this news about RFK Jr. There's also the suspension of celebration of Martin Luther King Jr Day, Black History Month, Women's History Month, Native American History Month, etc.

ICE detained a family—including a toddler—after they were overheard speaking Spanish. They’re US citizens from Puerto Rico.

No chance to explain. The mother, grandmother, and child were shopping when ICE agents took them into detention before admitting their “mistake.”

This is Trump’s America.

This person is _admitting on-air_ that she and her boss are violating a federal law that’s been in place for _a half-century_. That’s how stupid—and radical—these people are. They’re dangerous extremists and scofflaws and they should be referred to in that fashion by journalists because it’s a fact.
