This is all a good reminder that, “no help, no votes until the criminal conduct stops” is neither a big ask nor a politically perilous one.

Parents, teachers, and STUDENTS—Trump is coming for our schools so we better be ready to stand up for public education.

This former preschool teacher is ready to fight for our kids—we can’t let Trump defund our public schools. Repost if you’re with me.
Breaking news: President Donald Trump is preparing an executive order aimed at eventually closing the Education Department and, in the short term, dismantling it from within, according to three people briefed on its contents.

Closing the agency would require congressional approval, so the new administration hopes to diminish it in the meantime.

Senator Andy Kim just went to the USAID building, talked to the security guard there to confirm employees are being barred entry, and then did a press gaggle right there in front to call it out.

This is doing something. This is making an effort on messaging. Other Democratic lawmakers: take notes.

Medicare, Medicaid, Social Security, ACA, VA all on the chopping block.

Trump was never going to make anyone in America's life easier. In just 2 weeks he's made life harder for everyone except his billionaire friends.

Dear Leaders of the Free World,

Fight him at every turn.
Make his life miserable.
Expose his ignorance and sociopathy.
Oppose and condemn and marginalize him.
The decent people of this nation are not with him.

We stand with you.
