Trump announced he wants to cut $163B that would've gone to health care, housing, child care, education, clean energy, nutrition, & research.
But he wants $1 trillion for the Pentagon, which has never passed an audit.
It was never about waste, fraud, and abuse. It's about making the rich richer.

My mom used to say, “This makes me so mad, I’m going to write a letter.”
Thank you mom, @hcrichardson.bsky.social, Sen. King, and @tz-zy.bsky.social.
My last letters (a pic below) were more to soothe my rage. I am going to hone in the craft and focus on demanding action!

As we’ve warned before, the Trump administration has subjected around 80 staffers to lie detector tests. America, please understand—this is not normal.

Called my congressman who voted for the SAVE act.
Me: What documents will I need to vote if this passes?
Staffer: a DL and birth certificate.
Me: The documents don’t match
Staffer: Then a marriage certificate.
Me: Will my husband need the marriage certificate too?
Staffer: No
Me: See the problem?

I’ll say it again: since the election the WSJ has been MUCH more honest about how things are unfolding than the other two. If you knew nothing of the USA & only read WSJ you’d be much better informed.

Updated estimates now put turnout at 1.55 million — and we’re still waiting on reports from coalition members in other areas, with some events yet to begin! If you’re free, come out and join us!

People often ask what a coalition of 200,000 can do. The answer’s simple — with all our free time (since a lot of us got fired), we’re out here causing a lot of good trouble.

Why It’s So Hard to Protest Trump 2.0
Demonstrations have gotten smaller and more dispersed in Trump’s second term. Is that a bad thing?

Yesterday, Gabbard testified: “There was no classified material that was shared in that Signal chat.”
So the Director of National Intelligence lied to the US Senate.
