Every time you see someone powerful acting like a craven coward in the face of this authoritarian menace, let it stiffen your own spine. We are all we've got.

removal of Musk's goons from GSA and Treasury's payment system and appointment of an independent prosecutor that Trump can't fire to investigate what happened should be the table stakes for any Dem votes on the budget or debt ceiling. Should get more than that, but that's a bare minimum.
House Democrats "need to stand united against Elon Musk” and refuse to help the GOP pass budget bills until “Musk is held accountable for his crimes,” Casar told Jezebel. “Democrats actually have a lot of power to start righting the ship.”

There's a lot of lanes to choose from folks. Pick one and DRIVE! Pedal to the metal.
I'm getting a lot of freaked out late-night texts from my friends who are not experienced organizers, looking for advice on how to deal with the constant onslaught of bad news and how to make themselves useful. This is the advice I give.
Y'all pick a lane. Then make a little progress in your lane each day.

Every serious, experienced organizer I know is Doing Their Thing. Instead of freaking out about each bit of bad news, we're in our lanes rapidly building dual power infrastructure and networks that don't rely on the goverment.

How about all of the above
Here are the options on the table (which are not mutually exclusive):

1. House Dems bring articles of impeachment*

2. Senate Dems play constitutional hardball and obstruct everything

3. State AGs litigate (and prosecute) everything they can

4. Citizens march en mass

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 📉

Never forget: Donald Trump's entire presidency is unconstitutional because he attempted a coup after losing the 2020 election

The coming years will challenge us, but we were made for this. How fitting that it begins on MLK Day—a day that reminds us of the courage required to create change.

A reminder:

Donald Trump launched this whole TikTok ban as far back as August 2020 when he issued an Executive Order highlighting his concerns about TikTok specifically.

He then ordered ByteDance (TikTok’s parent co) to divest its interest in the operation of the app in the US.

Trump’s no hero.
JUST HITTING THE SCOTUS DOCKET:

In a per curiam opinion, SCOTUS rules that the TikTok ban does not violate the First Amendment.

I left Twitler ages ago, found respite and community on Threads but now that feed is telling me to migrate here. So, good morning and may the skies be blue wherever you are. #dowehashtaghere
