cancelling Disney+ and Hulu is well and good but it’s not a huge hit on an individual level

but Disney adults? people who spend real money at the parks? you guys can make a dent, call ‘em up and tell them your vacation is postponed until they pull their heads out of their asses
Heard from a friend at Disney+ that there are multiple levels of freakout internally, both from internal dissatisfaction, concerns about subscription cancelations, and of course the big one: concern about a boycott spilling over into parks and cruises.

Reminder: Disney is not just "Disney." Humans run the big company. Some of those human are cowards who don't want to be named. The coward at the top of the heap is Bob Iger, who fashions himself as a leader. Cancel Disney+ and pressure Iger to change course. indivisible.org/statements/i...

I canceled Disney & Hulu because Disney/ABC is colluding with Trump to strip away our First Amendment rights to free speech #BoycottDisneyABC

I just canceled our Disney/Hulu subscription. Until ABC reinstates Kimmel’s program, ceases their political collusion with Trump and his FCC lapdogs, and commits to defending free speech.

Freedom of expression is critical to the health of our democracy.

ABC and Nexstar's decision to capitulate to the Trump administration's demands threaten our First Amendment rights.

While Trump has been distracting America with everything else, Elon Musk’s staffers are quietly taking over NOAA and the Department of Labor. They are also using AI to help rewrite a significant portion of the federal government’s computer systems.

This complaint is both horrific (in the subject it covers) and masterful (in the presentation thereof).

Also, Scarlett is overwhelmingly brave to move forward on this. I wish her whatever peace she is able to find.

100%. The thing about knocking out all the checks and balances is you’re not entitled to the benefit of the doubt
I'm sorry, but "they took over the whole federal payments system, fired the career staff, and won't let anybody see what they're doing" is not a situation in which you wait for more information. It's a situation in which you assume the worst. There's no explanation for it other than rampant crimes.

Do you know why a president would do all the most evil and heinous shit via Executive Order? Because his party can't easily make it law. And if they can't make it law, they can't make it last.

Don't let anyone make you feel like this is The End. Do not let them demoralize you. Live to see them die.

FYI the National Council of Nonprofits is collecting stories via this form about how the executive orders are harming nonprofit organizations nationwide. If you just got screwed today, tell them about it here. They're also asking who is comfortable sharing their stories with reporters.

This is a small sigh of relief from the chaos and damage caused by Trump’s dangerous actions.

But we already know that essential services are being disrupted by the confusion and lawlessness of Trump’s power grab, so keep calling your Members of Congress.

No compromise with dictatorship. Period.
