Remember this smirk Montanan's. This is Shady Sheehy's actual reaction to the defeat of an amendment that would have protected 218,000 of his constituents, including kids, from losing their health care.

Call your Senators & Reps tomorrow morning, especially the GOP ones, & demand support for Ukraine. Every GOP official needs to be asked if they are behind Trump & believe we should ally with Putin over Zelensky.

So what can we do instead of shopping today? Contact our Congressional delegation and demand that they stop the reckless dismantling of our government. Three calls, 15 minutes of your time. Use the 5calls.org site to make it easy.

One of my favorite days! The small charity I work with, Helena Area Friends of Pets, fixed almost 400 cats and dogs in 2024, preventing thousands of unwanted kittens and puppies. 🐱🐶

I would not suggest that anyone send an email with their accomplishments from last week to hr@opm.gov with large attachments as evidence. And I would never suggest using a burner email to do that. Not me. Never.

If you haven't tried this app or its website you should. Then bookmark it and tell all your friends. It works like a charm and reduces the hassle factor of contacting your Congressionals.
Try 5calls.org. Based on your zip code it directs you to the phone numbers of your reps. Also gives you a list of topics to select from with an accompanying script on that topic to help you. I’ve been using it all week.

A whole lot of wheat and lentils come from my state of Montana. All those MAGA farmers and truckers who voted against Jon Tester deserve this.

This may be old news but I used the 5calls.org site to contact my federal delegation today. It makes it sooo easy. This is a good site to share with folks who are angry right now but not familiar with contacting politicians.

How does the freeze on federal grants affect Montana's state budget? Bigly. Local governments and businesses too. It hurts people. This article from 2022 gives an overview of the potential impact.

What really irritates me is that so many of the people opposing DEI think it's all about race. It's also about gender, disabilities, and age. They don't have a clue that it probably means them or someone they know too. 😡
I’m hearing from constituents whose jobs are at risk because they do agency outreach to minority communities.
Consider what this means for public health, national security, agriculture and justice.
The war on DEI has become a war on public service and government for all.

The White House's financial disclosures page on the web has been taken down so no one can access financial reports for high-level federal officials online. These include presidential nominees for Senate-confirmed posts. We'll see if the website will be restored (I won't hold my breath).

This is a painfully hard list to read because you have to keep reminding yourself that these are being repealed, not enacted. 😡
In Trump's day one executive order revoking dozens of Biden administration executive orders, he adds another section directing that "the heads of each agency shall take immediate steps to end Federal implementation of unlawful and radical DEI ideology." www.whitehouse.gov/presidential...

Lots of good people to follow.
On this dark day it's crucial to follow #feminist journalists, activists, scholars, artists, and comics who help us understand our structural problems and offer solutions--roadmaps toward freedom, justice.

This is how Newsmax is describing Trump today. As if the first Shining wasn't scary enough. I wonder if this "real plan" involves a madman, mayhem and murder too?

I feel nauseous. I'm getting a feeling that this is nothing more than a big tech bro/MAGA scheme to turn a wildly popular space into X with videos. And yes, I include Shou in that group. Good bye TikTok.
