Trump doesn't care that his deployment of the National Guard is dangerous — but the governors deploying these Guard members should.

We're calling on Governors Ivey, Kemp, Landry, Reeves, DeWine, Lee, and Morrisey to recall their Guard members from DC. Email all seven: bit.ly/seven-governors

Speaker Johnson has stalled long enough. Tell your rep it's time to swear in Adelita Grijalva of Arizona. Stop trying to protect Trump from the release of the Epstein files.

You can make a difference. You don't have to be wealthy or save the world on your own. It could be that tomorrow you make your coffee at home and pack your lunch, then you donate that $20 to feed people in Gaza. If you don't have that to spare, share this message so it finds someone else.

Feeling like there's nothing you can do about deportations? Here are some action items that could really make a difference, and are as easy as emailing your local airport.

No Kings On June 14—Flag Day—Donald Trump wants tanks in the street and a made-for-TV display of dominance for his birthday. A spectacle meant to look like strength. But real power isn’t staged in Washington. ...

If you haven't yet been to a protest, please find one local to you and get out there this Saturday. Trump says we're not allowed to protest, threatened us with violence. Protest is our CONSTITUTIONAL RIGHT and the most powerful thing you can do to protect it is to claim it.

MAKE NOISE ON THIS ONE‼️

They didn’t just deport him—they sent him to CECOT in El Salvador.

Agelviz came here legally through the refugee resettlement program—fully vetted. But when he landed in Houston, CBP snatched him over a tattoo: a clock and a rose.

No charges. No record. Just a suspicion.

#Postcrossing mail always brightens my day. Today I received two #postcards - one from Russia and one from Canada. The Canadian postcrosser sent me a Beatles postcard. (Love!) The Russian one was in an envelope with huge stamps. Never seen anything like it. #philately

Don’t let the arrest of a Federal Judge distract you from the announcement that ICE can enter anyone’s home without a warrant to look for migrants.

I don't even know what to do at this point. How do you fight this? Democrats are vastly outnumbered in WV Legislature and the Republicans are destroying everything. Some days I'm too tired to feel angry. It's just sadness. 💔😔

The Vice President of El Salvador has told US Senator Van Hollen that the reason they are still holding Kilmar Abrego Garcia is due to the Trump regime paying them to do so.

Trump needs to be arrested and brought up on human trafficking charges. #3E
