There is a lot of organizing happening in the background.

Trump wants you to feel defeated, to give up. Don't.

We know it’s tempting to give into cynicism or despair right now. So let us tell you what keeps us going: We are in daily communication with Members of Congress and senior staff who want to see a unified opposition as well. They are fighting on the inside to build that opposition. 🧵

A federal judge, Amir H. Ali, ordered the Trump administration to unfreeze foreign aid spending halted in Trump’s first week, ruling that the freeze was based on dubious logic and likely causing irreparable harm to aid groups facing financial shortfalls and potential shutdowns.

You have our vote for this 👏👏 @petebuttigieg.bsky.social
I keep saying Dems need to do a daily briefing on Capitol Hill and fill the void, fact check the WH. Hire Pete Buttigeig and give him a staff to do this.

Very proud of the 8 DOJ attorneys who have refused to dismiss the Adams case. Their oath is to the Constitution, not the president.
Trump Official’s Demand in Adams Case Forces Justice Dept. Showdown
A crisis at the department over the Eric Adams case is an early test of the criminal justice system’s resilience against a retribution-minded president and his appointees.

THIS 👏
The infantilizing of white men allows them to later be treated as victims, and ultimately not held accountable for their actions.

Knowing they are not accountable empowers them to act aggressively outside the law with no regard to their future - because after all, they'll be fine.

Please stop referring to the minions hacking govt under direction of "DOGE" as 'children who haven't developed full frontal cortexes'. Those are garbage.

This completely devalues perfectly capable people in the vein of Greta Thunberg, David Hogg, & many others you have never heard of.

If this were reversed, the Republicans would have figured out how to bring the Dems to a screeching halt.

It's going to take more than writing a strong letter.

It's going to take outright disobedience.

It's going to take strategizing outside the boundaries of what's "acceptable"

So Mitch McConnell picks his lame duck session to play "hero" and vote against Pete Hegseth and Tulsi Gabbard. Seriously, Senator McConnell, you will be remembered and it will NOT be kindly. Enjoy your retirement and your billions in kick-backs on the blood, sweat and tears of TERRORIZING Americans.

@charlieangus104.bsky.social , Canadian telling it like it is. We're going over the boards, Charlie. 🇨🇦
Canadian MP Charlie Angus: Wasn’t it just a week ago that we were supposed to get a 30-day pause? And now, suddenly, he’s focused on steel and aluminum imports?

No one in Canada is surprised. Did anyone actually believe this guy? That his word meant anything? He’s a criminal.

Today is the first test.

The Trump Administration has until 11:59 pm to comply with a court order to restore recently deleted webpages and information.

This is one of a dozen judgements they will need to comply with in the next few weeks.

If they do not, we've crossed the line.

The NGO Doctors for America argued that HHS, CDC and FDA violated federal law in removing medical information from public-facing websites.

This is the stage where they train the media to "get in line."

This is why we must follow journalists accounts, such as Katie Phang, where we can have faster, and more direct information updates.
NEW: @apnews.com has now been barred from an event in the Oval Office because it "did not align its editorial standards with Trump's EO renaming the Gulf of Mexico as the Gulf of America."

In other words, b/c @apnews.com ACCURATELY calls it the "Gulf of Mexico," it is now being punished by Trump.

As people are trying to understand how courts enforce their orders, this DOJ Org Chart may come in handy. The courts don’t have their own enforcement agency. The US Marshal’s Service is part of DOJ.

This is in line with Trump clarifying yesterday that he is serious about invading Canada.
Trump announced that he had “ordered the immediate dismissal” of the advisory boards of the service academies for the Army, Navy, Air Force and Coast Guard.
