You are not powerless, and he is not unstoppable. Look at, and learn from, the funding freeze and how quickly he was forced to surrender.

A federal court just blocked Elon Musk from interfering with the federal government’s payments system.
There is power in fighting back. We won’t let up until this block is permanent.

No more business as usual. Donald Trump and Elon Musk are imposing pain on millions of people.
Tonight, we’re taking this fight to the Senate floor.
Russ Vought - author of Project 2025 - is up for a vote, and Democrats are using every second to throw a wrench in their plan.

No need to make fun of RFK Jr’s voice when there are plenty of other things about him to criticize. Ableist put downs reflect poorly on the person using them & they hurt everyone else with the same disability www.npr.org/2025/01/29/n...
RFK Jr.'s raspy voice is the result of a condition called spasmodic dysphonia. What is it?
Spasmodic dysphonia is a rare neurological disorder that causes a strained voice. RFK Jr. says he has had the disorder for decades and treats it with Botox injections, a common treatment.

Adulthood is the worst hood I’ve lived in.
Yesterday I started a clinical trial testing whether acupuncture improves chemotherapy induced peripheral neuropathy. It’s blinded so I don’t if I’m in the test group or not but my hands and feet haven’t felt this good in years…. If it’s placebo I’ll take it! #cansky #oncsky

Good morning, Blue Sky.
Being resilient is easier when you're surrounded by the right people.
Build communities that make you smarter and tougher for the battles ahead.
Never give up hope. Never stop fighting for what is right. And just.
Whatever comes our way, we will face it together.
