This is your regular reminder that executive orders are not royal decrees. Because America has no king.

We often look back on the seminal moments in our history and wonder "What would I have done?"

This is our moment. This is our time.

We must stand up. We must speak out. We must do everything we can to stop a President who has every intention of destroying our democracy.

Wow, what a run. Tremendously proud of my friend and colleague for his display of courage over these 24+ hours. This is exactly what's needed to fight back against Trump's authoritarianism. We're lucky to have him on our side.

Liz Cheney: “Donald Trump, JD Vance, and Elon Musk have made clear who they are. Only fools—or Kremlin tools—would abandon NATO, side with Russia, and demand Ukraine surrender in the face of Putin’s brutal aggression.”

REPOST if you stand with Cheney against Donald Trump!

It’s important to know that a lot of productive activity is happening in person and offline, too.

Not all of it can be broadcast online, but we’ve had hundreds of people showing up to our trainings, mobilizations, and more.

Keep going. Tyranny is eroded by a sea of small acts. Everything matters.
