Remember the #law firms that capitulated to #EOs signed against them? Can the president sidestep #Congress and reallocate #public #funds? It seems that the answer is #no.

Feeling down about the capitulation of 'law firms' to what, to a private citizen, looked like extortion. If law firms are caving what hope is there?
And then I read this.
Cheers to those that do not give up in advance. Cheers to those that stand in the void and scream for justice!

260+ rallies across US, calling to keep the USPS out of private hands. #Durham #USPS
USPS, funded itself for ~60 y without taxpayer $ serves everyone alike.
These citizens, concerned for America's future, invested their weekend asking the current administration not to privatize USPS.

A personal invitation was extended to Tillis to attend the town hall in Cary, NC last night. Till is attending a fund raiser at the Raleigh country club at noon today, so he probably could have accepted, but he did not show. Not acceptable Tillis. Meet US!

Raleigh Rally against DOGE. It's not about govt efficiency, they're cutting jobs & funding to provide billionaire's tax cuts.
No cuts: Medicaid, Medicare, or Social Security. No DOGE firing Forest Service workers. We're not going to let Tillis rubber-stamp this agenda.
