What would John Lewis do tonight if he were still with us?
He would cause GOOD TROUBLE.
Boycotting the speech is not that - that's playing into Trump's hands.
Instead, dear Congresspeople, show up. Shout down the lies. Spread the truth. Push Trump's buttons - make him show himself for what he is.

Why is Elon Musk hiding what they are doing inside the USAID building?
Our congressional delegation pursuing oversight on reports of Elon Musk’s illegal activity at USAID was just barred from entering the building on the orders of Musk and the Trump Administration.
Nobody elected Musk — this is illegal and corrupt and we will keep fighting it.
