Donald Trump and Elon Musk are trying to strip the US government for parts while enriching their own businesses, alienating us from our allies, and putting us at grave national security risk while stealing food from the elderly and children is both a compelling narrative and true.

„anti-DEI“ is simply code for removing everything, every memory of a contribution to history unless it was done by a white straight man, to claim that the only people qualified for jobs and leadership are, in fact, white straight men. That’s it. That’s always been it.

It’s important to know that a lot of productive activity is happening in person and offline, too.
Not all of it can be broadcast online, but we’ve had hundreds of people showing up to our trainings, mobilizations, and more.
Keep going. Tyranny is eroded by a sea of small acts. Everything matters.

i think it is important to say that the open and explicit racism of the president and the vice president isn’t just uncouth or “controversial” but a direct attack on tens of millions of americans and a dereliction of their duty to represent the entire country
