Hernandez: This administration wants you to believe that the reason you can't buy eggs is because of your immigrant neighbor, they want you to blame trans folks for your troubles, blame unhoused people for the housing crisis. You know what I say to that? Bullshit.

This is a big deal. Senator Cory Booker’s courage to speak out so loudly and boldly on Capitol Hill will most certainly give others courage to get louder and bolder. I was in DC last month and it felt like a police state - there was little tolerance for free speech opposing the administration.
I’ve taken the Senate floor and will speak for as long as I’m physically able to lift the voices of Americans who are being harmed and not being heard in this moment of crisis. Watch here:

“Look for what you Love.” 💜
This is some of the best advice I’ve ever been given… in engaging with challenging people, In navigating difficult situations, in times of crisis.
Remembering to focus first on love changes everything.

When horrendous news comes at us as fast as it has in the last few weeks, the only way to process it is to come together and discuss what’s happening (and more importantly, talk about how we fight back). Join @leahgreenberg.bsky.social and @ezralevin.bsky.social tomorrow for their weekly discussion.
Welcome! You are invited to join a webinar: What’s the Plan? A Weekly Discussion with Indivisible’s Co-Founders.. After registering, you will receive a confirmation email about joining the webinar.
The onslaught of news, the chaos coming out of the White House – it’s all meant to overwhelm us. It’s a deliberate strategy to sow confusion and make us believe we are powerless to fight back.
