These are the same Senate Democrats who lectured the base for years about the importance of preserving the filibuster so it would still be available when Democrats were in the minority

I had a conversation with someone yesterday who was feeling hopelessness: I had to remind them that's what they want US to be and not fight back.
Everyone can't do everything but we will need people to continue to speak the truth, record the truth and fight the lies.

Too many of these Republicans are simply shitty people, and we shouldn't pretend they aren't.

True heroism is remarkably sober, very undramatic. It is not the urge to surpass all others at whatever cost, but the urge to serve others at whatever cost.

I never wanna hear a peep about how Republicans run the government better than Democrats, when Republicans are literally hiring teenagers to perform top level functions

We have built a state that relies on nonprofits and industry to do its basic tasks.

Pausing funding breaks in this framework breaks the current us social safety net.

Though the legality of this directive is quite suspect, it goes WAY beyond research.
I am begging the national media to start taking this seriously.

Stop buying the claims that the framing of "temporary" or "pause."

They are altering the review processes of federally funded scientific research from merit-based peer review processes to political screening by ideologues.
NEW — OMB temporarily pauses all agency grants and loans programs.

Per copy of memo: "The use of Federal resources to advance Marxist equity, transgenderism, and green new deal social engineering policies is a waste of taxpayer dollars that does not improve the day-to-day lives of those we serve."

To me, a capitalism with much less role for patent and copyright monopolies, a downsized financial sector, a non-corrupt system of corporate governance, and a democratized media is a very different beast worth fighting for.

Because y’all give all the money to liberal white people and not a CENT of it trickles down to the communities they serve.

And then the organizations that are direct-giving (like mine) are excluded from major grants b/c we dont have $1M revenues CONSECUTIVELY over 3-5 year periods.

It’s systemic
"We must grapple with the reality that the current models we have for philanthropy are not up to the task of incubating, developing and supporting strategy on the left."

Left Organizing Is in Crisis. Philanthropy Is a Major Reason Why.
Progressive philanthropy lacks good strategy, so too many of our organizations are hollow—and that left us unable to prevent a second Trump term.

About 44% of Trump’s election was funded by just 10 megadonors, almost exactly 15 years after the U.S. Supreme Court issued its landmark 'Citizens United' ruling, which opened the floodgates for corporations and billionaires to pour unlimited money into elections.
“Citizens United” Allowed 44% of Trump’s Election to Be Funded by 10 Megadonors
The ruling affords billionaires unprecedented political power as the rest of us pay the price, says an expert.
