Every Mother’s Day I have been republishing an article I wrote 9 years ago For the Un-Mothered on Mother’s Day. Every year I hear from people who tell me that it’s exactly what they needed to hear on a day that’s difficult for them. So here it is again. ❤️

Actual headline from the @nytimes.com. Friends, if you’re a U.S. citizen please fight back any way you are able. If you are a non-citizen living in the U.S., keep your head down. If you’re outside of the U.S., stay there, or go someplace where history and human rights still matter #StaySafeStayAlive

Seriously important thread by Senator Chris Murphy re the real reasoning behind the tariffs.

No, the tariffs are a tool to collapse our democracy. A means to compel loyalty from every business that will need to petition Trump for relief.
1/ A 🧵 to explain his plan and how we fight back.
