We are living through dark times. The public is being brazenly lied to by the current administration while Trump's billionaire pals refashion government to be of, by and for billionaires.

It is a long road ahead, but we are with you. Take action with us: choosedemocracy.us/what-can-i-do/

We are fighting an administrative coup. The top question we keep getting asked is WHAT CAN I DO?

The basic answer: resist every unjust, unfair, and unconstitutional policy at every level.

We've organized a few simple actions on our website > choosedemocracy.us/what-can-i-do/

Powerful reminder from @rebeccasolnit.bsky.social. In his first month of presidency, Trump has attempted multiple power grabs. He'll try to get away with as much as he can until the ppl stop him. Our job is to fight back. Democracy is a verb. It is something we must do, something we must fight for.

What happened last week was an administrative coup. Trump and his oligarchs are refashioning our government to be of, by and for the billionaires.

Opportunities are everywhere. Make everything as hard as possible. Let's care for one another and act for a better world.

Thank you @sabrinacartan.bsky.social for this meme. And to everyone who defended democracy and the Constitution yesterday.

Trump can lose when we fight back ✊

WIN! People-power thwarts Trump's order to halt billions in critical funding. He didn't back down because it was a good idea. He backed down because people pushed back on his administrative coup.

This win makes it clear that Trump can lose when we fight back ✊

Trump is acting more like a dictator than a President. He has ordered tens of billions of funding, that's already authorized by Congress, be frozen indefinitely. This is blatantly illegal and an authoritarian move. We cannot allow our democracy to crumble. @rebeccasolnit.bsky.social
