Speaking freely is a right, it matters deeply to us. When pundits & politicians vilify folks who stand up for their beliefs, I ask "Why?" Is it about safety...or control? It's not about patriotism. Democracy can’t be defended by silence. Speak up #TruthBrigade truthbrigade.indivisible.org/s/WcMMDBth

The American people did not elect Donald Trump to become the curator of the Smithsonian - they elected him to lower costs.
We have to talk about the horrors of slavery for what they are. They already tried this with the Florida curriculum that taught the ‘benefits’ of slavery for black people.

Reproductive freedom, voting rights, public education, and democracy itself are on the line in Virginia this November. Control of the Governor’s office, every House of Delegates seat, and thousands of local races will shape the state’s future.

Virginia is the only state where unemployment rose in June – the sixth straight monthly increase.
Trump’s federal job cuts are wrecking Virginia’s workforce, and

Let’s be clear: This is political censorship. Just as CBS’ parent company handed Trump $16 million to settle a spurious lawsuit, this decision is about preemptively bowing to a regime that demands obedience.
We stand with Stephen Colbert and every voice that Trump wants silenced.

HUGE NEWS: We outraised Marjorie Taylor Greene in less than a month and it’s all because of YOU. $500,000+ raised in 27 days - and she had THREE months. Momentum is real. We just dropped this press release, but I needed to thank you personally. Leadership Matters!

In America, the right to free speech, human dignity, and to be safe—are values we cherish. Who benefits when these rights are stripped? When migrants are dehumanized? Authoritarians. We know better. Truth doesn’t fear protest. It grows from it. #TruthBrigade truthbrigade.indivisible.org/s/b0iZCOlX

The claim of pursuing a “balanced budget” sounds good… until you see the math. Trillions in tax cuts for the rich, increasing the deficit, while slashing healthcare and Social Security. Who benefits from this? We can do better! #TruthBrigade
