Over the last year, you could have given into anger and despair.
Instead, you’ve organized in the largest numbers this country has ever seen to reclaim the power of the pro-democracy majority.
We could not be more thankful for you and everything you’re doing to defy Trump’s agenda.

The reason I talk so much about Democrats in rural America is because it’s key to taking the country back.
We can’t wring many more blue votes out of the cities. Come back to rural spaces. Run for office. Contest every race.
This is the way.

For awhile now my team and I have come to the conclusion that I have the Mike Wozowski (Monsters Inc.) photo curse. I think this picture taken at the Martinsville, IN No Kings event is my pinnacle Mike Wozowski moment. Look for the sunflower. That is me. 🌻🤣

At our No Kings protest in Martinsville, IN, we had a lobster and a woman whose red, white, and blue inspired outfit sported a red lobster. They became fast friends. This is what can happen when you exercise your right to free speech. No Kings Since 1776!

It is an active act of defiance to refuse to be divided from our neighbor.

Friends, do not sit down if violence breaks out at a protest.
Sitting down will put you in danger of being beaten and make you an easy target. Turn and walk back the way you came.
I wouldn’t have even mentioned this, but “Occupy Democrats” has millions of followers 👇🏻

SCOOP: The Social Security Administration (SSA) will be shifting its public communication exclusively to X, sources tell WIRED. This comes as agency plans to cut its regional office workforce by roughly 90 percent.

I have yet to see a single bill from the Republicans at the federal or state (IN) level that truly champions people. But I see a lot of bills that enslave constituents to their corporate donors. #FightOligarchy

They will lie, bullshit, and distract, so it's very important for all of us to say what we see with our own eyes. The fascist Co-President threw a defiant Nazi salute on inauguraton day.

Media reports say San Antonio could be one of the cities targeted by Trump's immigration raids this week. No matter what, we know that:
1) You have basic rights (listed below).
2) Trump will say he's going after criminals. He's a liar. Texans need to look out for each other.

🚨 The Senate is expected to vote tomorrow morning on one of the most dangerous immigration bills in recent history.
The Laken Riley Act wouldn’t protect anyone. What it would do is create chaos that could impact millions.
