It's absolutely extraordinary that historians are leading us and telling us how to fight fascism. Thank you so much. We are listening.

Applied for Social Security and Medicare in early April. Now 6/11. The SSA website won't open. Medicare hasn't received information from SSA. Called SSA; my application hasn't been approved. Supposed to get benefits 7/1. Now on hold for 2 hours. Congressperson has not answered, either.

I don't have many followers, so please re-post this. The Trumf government is breaking our laws. There is no reason for citizens to pay taxes this year. The IRS does not have the staff to come after us. Spill the tea, my friends. Starve the beast. Resist.

@aoc.bsky.social, @johnnypalmadessa.bsky.social, @davidhoggbskysocial It's clear the trumf administration doesn't care about the rule of law. So why should we pay taxes this year? They aren't representing us. They don't have the staff to come after us. I suggest a tax boycott. Spill the tea.

This is such a well written cri de coeur
It’s hard to focus in the middle of the smoke, flames, screams, tumbling walls - impossible to even assess how much damage is actually being done - but I'm focusing on just getting through, hanging on to what and who I can, so we can get to work with whatever is left when the flames die down. 8/8

So it turns out when you DON'T go woke, you go broke.

Trump's New DEI? Dying Economy and Inflation.

It's only two weeks in and Trump is Making America Broke Again!

Hey Elon Musk's "freshman fifteen," (thanks Rachel Maddow) does it occur to you that you are committing treason and you might be found guilty of that? You might want to look up the penalties for that. It's not good.

Serious question. Tax season is upon us. Is there any reason to pay taxes to this illegal regime? Taxation without representation.

Yes please
To every Senate Dem: Shut it the fuck down. Trump’s unconstitutional chaos will kill people.
1️⃣ Oppose all nominees until OMB reverses the freeze.
2️⃣ Deny Unanimous Consent to slow Senate proceedings.
3️⃣ Vote no on all Cloture.
4️⃣ Force Quorum Calls at every opportunity.

It's time to fight.
Asked how organizations that rely on federal funding should make payroll, Trump Press Secretary Karoline Leavitt says they should call Russ Vought and make a case

I was thinking about my lack of skills dealing with our cruel, greedy new "leaders," and wondering how I can survive this era. Then I remembered that I was a bullied child. They are bullies. I survived them once and thrived. Us grown-up bullied children have the skills to survive this era. Resist.

Wonder why people are on their last nerve? Called my bank about my car loan. 1st, the phone tree. Then the outsourced service staff who couldn't understand that I was calling about a car loan. The constant asking of the same questions due to a required script. 10 minute call that should've been 2.

This is exactly how I'm feeling.
This is a Constitutional crisis and it’s a family emergency.

Yes, our Democracy is in peril, but our most treasured relationships with people are in tatters too.

We are trying to salvage both and it’s exhausting.

“Women are walking around, suspicious and guarded and apoplectic, knowing that some in our families or neighborhoods voted us back into second-class status, and wondering what else they’re ready to go along with.”
