My friend took my picture today while I was handing out senator phone lists. About 500 handed out. Then handed out postcards. About 1800 handed out.
Home now and achy. LOL

This was in Portland OR.

Were you out today?

FEMA has wiped their website of a bunch of courses- one of which is: IS-368.a—Including People With Disabilities in Disaster Operations

If it wasn't clear yet- these people aren't just ideological, they are barbaric.

Last night was the 250th anniversary of Paul Revere's midnight ride to warn the Minutemen of approaching British troops.

I want to take a moment to share an excerpt from the Declaration of Independence's grievances against King George III.

Remind you of anyone?

Today, thousands of health workers at the CDC and FDA lost their jobs, effective immediately. People are literally finding out if they were fired at security when they try to badge in. It's cruel and unnecessary, which is the point.

Had a client community (population ≈80) send me this just now:

“[USDA Research] banned some key language from its vocabulary…as well as the phrase ‘safe drinking water.’ …water treatment, rural water, and clean water, among dozens of others.”
Leaked Memo Reveals Insane Ban on Words Agriculture Department Can Say

The stages in MAGA responding to a negative story:
1: It's all lies
2: Most of it is lies
3: Some of it's true, but it doesn't matter
4. It's all true, but it's fine when we do it
5. F**k you

thinking of one of abraham lincoln's great quotes this morning:

"As I would not be a slave, so I would not be a master. This expresses my idea of democracy. Whatever differs from this, to the extent of the difference, is no democracy."

Closing rural post offices will do the same thing that closing rural schools has done: Empty out rural towns.

Why? To sell off farmland for rock bottom prices to the oligarchs. Water and mineral rights and CAFOs polluting with impunity.

It’s been the plan for decades.

The DOGE raiders are not interested in our paltry Social Security benefits. They're mining data. Fascists are exuberant list makers. Take antidepressants? On a list. Donate to opposition candidates? On a list. Union member? On a list. Etc. The roundups come later, just before the pits are dug.
