Yesterday was incredible. The official count is in — 5.2 million people joined the #HandsOff protest nationwide. So many are asking: what’s next? Mark your calendars: 4/19 is the next nationwide day of protest.

Trump’s tariffs pose an “enormous risks" to the US economy and make Republicans vulnerable to a “bloodbath" in next year's midterm elections.

There are 33m companies in the USA. Only 21k employe 500 or more. And they only make up 23% of workers.
Trump and Elon are ignoring the more than 32m entrepreneurs that can't afford to build a new factory or pay tariffs or absorb cancelled contracts.

If your plan is to keep your head down and hope it goes away, I can show you all of human history why it won’t work.
If it’s to capitulate and hope they ignore you, I can show you thousands of Trumpers who’ve already lost their jobs & savings.
Fighting back isn’t an option.
It’s the only option.

Dear all foreign friends outside the United States,
Our country is big. Like really big. Like so much bigger than you ken. Our states are bigger than many countries, and there's 50 of them.
So when you wonder why we are not all marching on DC
I live 2,500 miles (4000 km) from the White House

Just in NIH grants, It looks like beautiful Iowa City, home of the U of Iowa, will lose $71m in funding. That's almost $1k per resident. And that's before all the other cuts to SSA, FDA, etc.
Anyone in Iowa City that can offer more insight?

Literally every Black person who comes to DC visits the NMAAHC and it’s a big source of pride among a very broad swathe of people. Censoring the work there won’t be as frictionless as people imagine.

A few years ago I visited the National Museum of African American History & Culture with my grandparents. When we stepped out of the building my grandmother kept repeating the words “I lived it. I lived it. I lived it.”
She’s still here. That history is still in her bones. You can never erase that.
