Articles of impeachment filed against Trump. If you’re serious about how “afraid” you are, Republicans (and the terminally senile @schumer.senate.gov ), then Lead, Follow, or get out of the way.

As Columbia University caves and rolls over to the current administration, I wonder what their incoming class accept rate will look like.
Would you want to go to a university that may revoke your degree?

New Yorkers, please call your state rep, state senator, and Kathy Hochul and tell them NO MASK BANS. This garbage proposal would kill people. We're on the verge of a measles epidemic and this terrible governor is pushing this? NO.

Gov. Hochul is pushing a last-minute mask ban in state budget talks

This is wonderful list of actions you can take as an individual. And yes there’s phone calls to make, and donations requested, but there’s writing messages with chalk where people can see them, and trainings you can attend and more.

Thirty lonely but beautiful actions you can take right now which probably won't magically catalyze a mass movement against Trump but that are still wildly important
Why? Because others will see you do them, and it will make it easier for them to take their own (slightly less lonely but equally beautiful) action by your side

Federal workers have launched their own website to explain what Federal employees really do and why DOGE is an absolute joke.

If you are cheering Fed workers being let go for waste, ask yourself if you’re okay with what your CEO currently gets paid.
