They were careless people, Tom and Daisy- they smashed up things and creatures and then retreated back into their money or their vast carelessness or whatever it was that kept them together, and let other people clean up the mess they had made.

You all make us proud. Every time we share information, you’re right there helping us amplify it and push back. Huge thanks to those who stepped up—especially the lawyers. Word spread, and Musk’s team was made aware that Wisconsin law prohibits payments for voter turnout.

Facts can not be denied: The Confederacy's mission was always to maintain chattel slavery and the oppression of enslaved people.

The U.S. government spent $710 billion in Trump’s first month, an increase from the same period a year prior. Cost-cutting efforts are ineffective, and job losses are occurring without clear justification.

Did you know that bald eagles almost went extinct? Habitat loss and DDT almost poisoned them to death. Through public action and government intervention, the species thankfully rebounded.
Capitalism cares so little about America, it almost killed off our national bird.

If I could offer one word of encouragement today, it would be a reminder that we are capable, creative people. We don't have to wait for someone to tell us what to do. Go search up how to connect. Move. We can take the initiative. We can be go-getters. We are the authors of our own liberation.
Take the initiative! We are capable of saving ourselves.

27 GOP members of Congress are on the fence about the budget bc they know cuts to Medicaid will be disastrous for their states. If you have a GOP rep, call and email NOW and say what a terrible idea cutting Medicaid is + if they support it now, they lose your support in the midterms. 202-224-3121.

I don't know what you've got going on this morning, but taking a few min to read up on historical examples of how to stop authoritarians/oligarchs is time well spent: educational and empowering. This morning, may I suggest starting with "Secessio plebis". Romans knew how to general strike.
