2/2: Attendees should be prepared for an increased law enforcement presence. In some locations, ICE agents may also be present. We urge everyone to stay grounded, remain peaceful, and prioritize de-escalation and safety for all.

1/2: We have reason to believe that events on 4/19 and/or the 50501 Movement may be misrepresented by the Trump admin in an attempt to justify the use of military force.

Let us be clear: our movement is pro-democracy and firmly grounded in non-violence.

We know Trump & Elon are corrupt. We’ve learned even more in the past 48 hours:

🚙 Trump’s State Department tried to funnel $400 million to Tesla.

💰 Elon received $38 billion in government contracts, loans, & tax credits.

🛰️ The FAA gave a contract to Elon’s company Starlink, worth billions.

You can understand almost all of American politics with just two numbers:

71% of Republican voters oppose Medicaid cuts.

100% of House Republicans are trying to cut Medicaid right now.

This story highlights why herd immunity is so important. Of the 58 measles cases, 4 have now been reported in people who were vaccinated. The absolute last thing we want is a huge outbreak that could result in mutations that evade the vaccines. amp.cnn.com/cnn/2025/02/...

Musk wants to inspect our IRS data to catch everyday Americans committing tax fraud—an overreach of DOGE’s power. Personal tax data has nothing to do with government efficiency.

Senator Andy Kim just went to the USAID building, talked to the security guard there to confirm employees are being barred entry, and then did a press gaggle right there in front to call it out.

This is doing something. This is making an effort on messaging. Other Democratic lawmakers: take notes.

The Jack Ass is being sued for absolutely everything and it will take years to get past every injunction and work through the courts.

By then it will be mid terms and we can take back the senate.

I'm not mourning. Today, I’m going to soak up the sunshine, celebrate the Eagles’ win, and instead of wearing black, I’ll be rocking my Penn State gear—while silently rooting for Ohio State, just this once. Never again. Tomorrow is a new day. Oh, and here's a cute cat 💙 #mlkday #resist #gobirds

The TikTok shutdown was a political stunt manufactured to boost Donald Trump’s popularity.

It did not work. Many on TikTok are now turning on Trump and TikTok leadership.
