Not to mention, it might not even be brought to the floor.

We made it a partisan issue in the house, and that was the goal, but now we have other things to focus on that are a lot more dire like changing the conversation around the abductions..

Can people stop saying the SAVE act WILL do x and instead say it WOULD do x?

The chance that it passes through the Dem sen filibuster is very very low. And when we say will, it makes people assume that it has a way better chance of passing than it does.

I’ve been saying this for months. Courage and optimism are contagious and we must keep that going to not be paralyzed by fear.
Fear has a way of being contagious.

But courage is also contagious.

Every night as I try to go to sleep I go to @ariellaelm.bsky.social to get away from the doom & read up in daily wins, what Dems, courts & others are doing to push back & @palmerreport.com because he writes simply, to the point & finds a way to make DT look small

Then I sleep easier
DAILY DEMS DOING THE WORK, MAKING NOISE, AND FIGHTING BACK Day 25

As I started yesterday, which worked really well, I can only include a handful of things, so please comment with other stories you saw that I missed!

Hopefully together, we can spread it all

Stop saying “we have to primary___” every time they do something you don’t like.

First: you need to see when their next election is if it’s not next year, this is complaining rather than action

The U.S. doesn’t deserve to have Trans people protecting a country that won’t protect them. The military can suffer then.
Transgender individuals are no longer permitted to join the U.S. military.

We won another mayoral seat in OK! Amanda Sandoval is the new mayor of Bethany, and I believe the first Latina Mayer in all of Oklahoma!
The election was really close, but this is a pretty heavy R city. It seems like it went for DT by about 20%. She won by less than 3%.

ELECTIONS MATTER

Getting private word that a few hospitals that have paused care for trans youth are starting that care back up.

If your hospital is one of them, please message me privately.

Good to see the initial capitulation is receiving strong pushback.

I’m seeing so many democrats and republicans who hate what the administration is doing, constantly bark and yell at democrats to fix this. Democrats, are not in power! Republicans are the ones we should be holding to the fire like never before. That’s how they get away with it.

Black history was was made during the 2025 Grammys. LGBTQIA+ history was made during the 2025 Grammys. Latin history was made during the 2025 Grammys. We need to celebrate that. #Grammys

Please remember they want us to doom scroll. They want us to think we have no agency. They want us to think we have no power!

One of the biggest ways we can fight back is by finding the wins and finding the joy and finding the work that the Democrats are doing!

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

I swear, getting on these apps I’m honestly dreading what mess I’m going to see about this administration. I highly encourage everyone to please get out and take time to live life and find joy. A clear mind is vital.

Stop fucking saying he blamed “DEI,” which is some abstract, non-tangible idea. He is blaming people of color having jobs he thinks they aren’t qualified for. He’s blaming race. He’s being racist every time he says it. Journalists need to get fucking backbones, my word.

When Trump says DEI he actually means Brown, Black and LGBTQ people.

Oh, and women too.

Agree?

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 📉
