There are credible reports that federal agents may be replaying the 2020 playbook and surging into Portland with the goal of provoking conflict and violence in my hometown. I am in close contact with state and local officials to monitor this activity.

Blood on their hands

The arrogance is astounding!

"WE'VE ARRANGED A society based on science and technology, in which nobody understands anything about science technology. And this combustible mixture of ignorance and power, sooner or later, is going to blow up in our faces. Who is running the science and technology in a democracy if the people don't know anything about it?" "Science is more than a body of knowledge, it's a way of thinking. A way of skeptically interrogating the universe with a fine understanding of human fallibility. If we are not able to ask skeptical questions, to interrogate those who tell us that something is true, to be skeptical of those in authority, then we're up for grabs for the next charlatan, political or religious, who comes ambling along."

He’s signing executive orders to investigate former staff members who spoke out against him.

He’s defying the Supreme Court.

-Dwight D. Eisenhower, 1953

Really? This is what you’re posting about.

Silence is complicity. Guess what? People are speaking up.

There are 33m companies in the USA. Only 21k employe 500 or more. And they only make up 23% of workers.

Trump and Elon are ignoring the more than 32m entrepreneurs that can't afford to build a new factory or pay tariffs or absorb cancelled contracts.

Update

(around an image of a hand grabbing cash) The new MAGA tax proposal steals from the poor and gives to the rich. $4.5 trillion in tax cuts disproportionately for billionaires and big corporations Guts vital programs like Medicaid & SNAP by an estimated $2 trillion Increases our country's debt by nearly $3 trillion MAGA Republicans fight for the billionaire class-not you.

Trump has chosen sides. And they aren’t our allies

Spoken like a true dictator.

If you aren’t speaking up, start now.

I know folks are frustrated that congressional Dems aren't yet a unified opposition force. Same. But while we're working to build that, we can't give a pass to these complicit Senate GOP facing reelection next year. Proud Indivisible is launching this today:
