@sanders.senate.gov: "You're looking at enormous power & wealth in the hands of a small number of people who could care less about working class people... They suffer from the addiction of greed. You got $50 billion? Ain't enough. We got to cut SS so I can get a tax break and maybe get $55 billion."

We should not be cutting health care for working families to deliver massive tax breaks for billionaires.

Repost if you agree.

Musk thinks he's Octavian about to read Mark Antony's will after storming the Temple of Vestas. Only these idiots need to spend $40 mil to convince us of the "truth".

Nice try morons, we live in the age of information. You will not succeed...
Open message to Elon Musk:

Rumors are swirling that you’re spending $40 million on Super Bowl ads targeting USAID. If there were truly fraud, wouldn’t you not need to spend millions trying to convince people?

The Washington GOP introduced HB 1584, which would end vote-by-mail in WA. This would make voting less accessible for millions of Washingtonians, including seniors, rural voters, and those with disabilities, and less convenient for busy voters.
Speak out against this NOW:

Trump is now purging Department of Education employees for taking diversity trainings HE encouraged them to take.

He's pushing out staff that process student loans & get resources to our schools. This won't help our kids learn or even save us money. He's just breaking services people rely on.
BREAKING: Education Department workers were placed on leave after attending a diversity training they were encouraged to take during President Trump’s first term, union says, a union official told NBC News.
Education Dept. workers put on leave after taking diversity training during Trump's 1st term, union says
A letter to the affected employees obtained by NBC News said they would continue to receive their full salaries and benefits and would not be required to do any work-related tasks.

Please call these actions out publicly as the coup that it is. It is an active power grab designed to neutralize opposition, consolidate control, and fundamentally alter governance without the consent of the people. We must be vocal and honest about exactly what this is...
