Cory Booker just did the political equivalent of eating an entire horse heart which means, very soon, he will sire the Dem that will mount the world.

Is it that we are all actively boycotting, or are we just not spending money in general due to not having enough of it?

Maybe it started as a boycott, but then we realized we don’t actually need to buy new decor and clothes and accessories every season.

Are they called “starships” because they look like shooting stars when they break into pieces and fall from the sky?

Zelenskyy stayed in Kyiv while Russia was bombing the city and sending in hit squads to kill him. J.D. Vance fled to an undisclosed location because some peaceful protesters yelled at him while he was on vacation. This is why I believe victory over these people is still possible.

The US Dept of Education just launched their “End DEI” tattletale initiative where uptight busybodies can report schools, teachers, and administration for supporting DEI.

It is very important that we not abuse this reporting tool in any way. It would be egregious to submit a false report.

AOC is in “trouble” with 🤡 because she posted “know your rights” videos advising people on their rights and how to assert them in regards to 🧊.

I'm really disappointed because all the Dems should be doing, at bare minimum, the exact same thing. This is yet another pressure point we can create.

Republicans are good at being loud. We have to be louder. Channel all your spite into calling. The only intelligible thing you need to say is your name and your zipcode. If you sob for a straight minute between screaming “Whhhyyyyy???!!!!!” it’s better than nothing. You don't have to be eloquent.

Friends, please imagine the most ignorant and reactive person you know. Understand that person is calling their senators and congress reps regularly to pressure them into doing utterly unhinged and harmful things. That's what we’re up against. Call your reps. Leave a message. Call again. Call again.

I can't let you have access to these groceries, m’am. I'm from DODE (Department of Dogs Eating), and I need privacy to complete my audit. Of course I won’t eat them all. This is all very legitimate.

There's no rule against naming your dog Jesus Christ.

If you've got a dog that notoriously slops their water everywhere, you might name them John the Baptist. Works even better if they like eating bugs.

There are a bazillion dogs named Odin and Zeus. Yours could be Christ the Savior.

Flu rates are super high everywhere in the US. Some schools have closed as a result.

But it isn't too late to get your flu shot! Many pharmacies offer flu shots at no cost with insurance. If you don't have insurance, your health department may offer them for free.

Trump’s solution to Gaza? Just make the Palestinians disappear. Technically, that would ‘end’ the genocide—if there’s no one left to kill. Classic Trump logic: clear the land, slap his name on a casino, and call it a win. Six months, tops, before he moves on.

Elon Musk is now bragging about getting rid of the team that put together the 'Direct File' tax filing system, which allows citizens to easily file their taxes for free.

Direct File is a big target of the for-profit tax prep industry including corporations like Intuit and H&R Block.

Something that parents of kids in public schools can do right now is make sure their county or city school board has a policy and procedure in place for dealing with any attempts by ice to access students during the school day.

This administration is trying to exhaust us. Resistance is a practice through which we take action, rest, live, celebrate, and repeat. Get to know your neighbors. Visit a library. Donate. Volunteer. Plan a garden. There are many ways to resist. We need them all.

When I was a Hill staffer in 2009, a Dem trifecta was trying to pass universal healthcare. In response, Senate GOP released a memo detailing all of the tactics they in the minority could use to delay the effort as much as possible. I'm recirculating that 2009 GOP memo here. Take inspiration from it.

This language describes a coup. You have to be a government employee, subject to the rules & procedures that bind gov employees, to do this kind of work. This is a blatant abuse of the public trust by the Trump administration, a true 5-alarm fire. www.wired.com/story/elon-m...
