Hey rest of the United States!Head’s up! New Mexico oilman Steve Pearce is going to be nominated to lead the BLM. Millions of acres of pristine BLM land is vulnerable to mining & oil exploitation. Unleashed Steve will destroy our public lands. Call your reps and senators and block his appointment.

Steve Shirley escaped the Holocaust as a child & went on to found one of the earliest software startups. The really impressive part? She employed women programmers who had been pushed out of the workforce after having kids, & allowed them flexible, family friendly, work from home jobs—in the 1960s!

A message to the world:
The United States is not represented by Trump. He acted unilaterally and unconstitutionally. He and his regime in power are not a representation of the American people, and we strongly condemn this attack. We want peace, and we will hold him and his enablers accountable.

So essential to keep public media like PBS and NPR alive and well. If you're able, please help support.
It's now official policy that PBS & NPR be completely defunded by the federal government.
It is essential that these operations remain on the air.
Please consider donating or subscribing as described in my post below the "fact" sheet.

We gotta get loud about this 🤬🤬🤬🤬🤬🤬
Rep Eric Swalwell walked out in *shock*—and who could blame him?
Every single GOP member on the House Judiciary Committee just voted to let Trump “deport” American citizens.
This is illegal, authoritarian, and unforgivable 🤬
Time to call, write, & protest before the full House votes.

Why do news organizations keep misstating the effect of this executive order? The president does not regulate elections in this country.

There is a 7-hour time difference between DC and Moscow. He was invited at 11:44 AM on Thursday DC time. That was 6:44 PM in Moscow. He saw Putin at 8:00 PM according to Sky News and Russians. He left Moscow at 2:00 AM. He may have actually been sitting in the Kremlin even when he joined. (2/2)

Our for-profit health care system is not only broken & cruel, it's extremely wasteful.
While we spend billions on stock buybacks, CEO compensation & denying needed care, Medicare for All would save $650 billion & 68,000 lives a year per CBO & Yale University. Let's get it done.
