We’re hearing that Republicans will soon bring back the SAVE Act for a vote. This bill is a blatant voter suppression tactic that could block millions of Americans from voting by imposing unnecessary and harmful citizenship verification requirements. Take action now: indivisible.org/resource/cal...

We're getting dangerously close to 47, declaring martial law.
When he does. Make sure you know who your people are.
Stay in your group where there is safety. Safety in numbers is a real thing.
Be prepared. It's going to be scary. But be prepared.

This is honestly just deeply embarrassing for House leadership. They didn't proactively coordinate an effective response, and instead of doing any reflection on their own role, they're getting mad at the people who at least tried to do something.
SCOOP: House Democratic leadership is "very unhappy" with those who went beyond traditional protest tactics, such as outfit coordination and refusal to clap during Trump's speech to Congress.
Scoop: House Democratic leaders privately confront Trump speech disruptors
Roughly a dozen Democrats were called into what one source described as a "come to Jesus" meeting.

If Trump wants respect, he can start by respecting the laws of this country and ending his coup.
We wouldn’t be in this mess if we had more Democrats willing to fight like Rep. Green. It’s time to step up and treat this like the emergency it is.

Rep. @algreen.house.gov had the spine to call out Trump’s blatant lies on Tuesday night. That’s the kind of Democratic leadership we need — not hand-wringing, not pearl-clutching, and certainly not pretending this is a normal presidency.

The Trump-Musk Regime is reportedly planning to cut as much as 50% of the IRS workforce.
Make no mistake: this will starve the government of revenue by making it easier for the rich to evade taxes — which the top 1% already do to the tune of $163 billion a year.

As Trump tries to dismantle the Department of Education, remember that his plan to cut the corporate tax rate to 15% would give the 100 largest corporations a tax cut larger than the entire department's K-12 budget.
