My details don't matter now.
Here's what we must do:

1. Get to know as many of our neighbors as possible

2. Organize and prepare for a general strike

3. Uplift each other so we can all keep going.
Pinned
We should collectively start "training" for a general strike.

We could do a Long Weekend When Nobody Leaves Home event so people can see what they need to stock up on, what they'll need help with.

We *will* have to strike because money flow is driving our destruction. Elections won't solve it all.

More Military personnel are calling legal military non-profit agencies seeking advice for orders they received.
The DOJ has issues a order that all orders are legal & the personnel are immune from prosecution. Right there is the red flag, the prosecution immunity.

We have reliable direct evidence connecting Donald Trump to Epstein’s underage sex trafficking ring. Trump’s DOJ cover-up of Epstein’s crimes must not continue.

DOJ must release every piece of the Epstein files. No more secrets. The American people, the survivors, and the victims deserve the truth.

you could fact check this — there aren’t 30 million illegal immigrants and there is no evidence that the presence of an immigrant in say houston has any impact on housing in madison, wisconsin — or you could note straightforwardly that this is just nazi rhetoric
JD Vance: "A lot of young people are saying housing is way too expensive. Why is that? Because we flooded the country with 30 million illegal immigrants who were taking houses that ought by right go to American citizens."

Yes, release the Epstein files.

Also, stay mad at Republicans for doing this vile shit and at the moderate Democrats who consigned it.

We have to remake our democracy. Don't get tired.

Hey so “underage girls” are…children. The word you’re looking for is children. They’re not like, women-in-waiting or women-lite or whatever. They’re children. I think some of you are very uncomfortable with what that means for you but it is still true.

@jay.bsky.team what is going on here? Sarah Kendzior is one of the writers I came here to read.

This seems like a bit of bullshit.
Since Bluesky gets to control the convo and Sarah can't post while she's suspended, here's her side of things:

Sarah Kendzior speaks truth to power.If Bluesky can’t handle that, it’s not the open forum it claims to be. Silencing independent journalists is cowardly and dangerous to democracy.Censorship of critical voices isn’t a show of strength it’s a confession of fear. We need more accountability, not less

Trump bragged about grappling women by the pu**y & barging into rooms of partially dressed, young pageant contestants. A jury concluded he assaulted E. Jean Carroll in a dressing room. So nothing that’s in the Epstein emails is a surprise. It’s just confirmation.

"Budget wonks say Trump’s dividend math doesn’t work."

Press really must stop reporting F47's "policy announcements" as if decree via social media screed is normal. Those with actual expertise must tinge their comments about these announcements with much more contempt.

What to know about Trump's plan to give Americans a $2,000 tariff dividend
President Donald Trump boasts that his tariffs protect American industries, lure factories to the United States, raise money for the federal government and give him diplomatic leverage.

Say it louder, Mayor Pete.
From street marches to court battles to the ballot box - we’ve challenged the power of this exceptionally unpopular president.

The lesson from each success we've had is that we need to ramp the political pressure up, always up, not back down, now more than ever.

Republicans were never going to extend the ACA subsidies. THEY DON'T CARE. They think they are never going to lose another election. Gerrymandering, voter suppression, canceling mail-in voting and the Voting Rights Act are all on the agenda. MAGA billionaire has bought Dominion Voting Machines.

So he’s saying all the tariff money we took in is gone and we won’t be able to pay it back. There was always a possibility he could lose this lawsuit and have to refund the tariff money. We didn’t prepare for that possibility? He’s running the govt like he ran his casinos.

Once, my mentor told me to remember that my unqualified, misogynist/racist supervisor loved his family, so I should try to have a more generous and open attitude toward him.

My career became much easier to navigate once I shed that boss, ditched my mentor, and saved generosity for non-bigots.

I mean, how could Democratic Senate Leadership have seen this coming?
In the most predictable development ever, Mike Johnson is not committing to hold a House vote on ACA subsidies

This is what makes me want to throw plates at the wall. The GOP was backed into a corner. The Dems had built political capital, buoyed by last week’s elections, and could have made the GOP *own* all the hardship of the past weeks. But no, had to cave. Squandered it all. AS USUAL. So enraging.

Schumer allows a provision to go into the supposedly “clean” CR to allow people like Ted Cruz to file lawsuits for money over Jack Smith’s J6 investigation. Amazing Dem leadership in the senate. Thanks Chuck!

At least Rep. Jeffries is reading the room. Schumer needs to go. Primary season will be busy for Senate Democrats in 2028.
Listen, think what you want about Hakeem Jeffries. I know I’ve had my fair share of disagreements.

But even after Schumer caved and betrayed all of us, Hakeem is whipping votes on the House floor to try and block this shitty deal and protect Americans’ healthcare. That’s worth a lot.
