Edmund Burke reminds us -from nearly 300 years ago - โ€œThe only thing necessary for evil to triumph in the world is that good men do nothing". He also opined: "Nobody made a greater mistake than he who did nothing because he could do only a little."

Thirty lonely but beautiful actions you can take right now which probably won't magically catalyze a mass movement against Trump but that are still wildly important Why? Because others will see you do them, and it will make it easier for them to take their own (slightly less lonely but equally beautiful) action by your side

Why arenโ€™t they taking the fired federal workers who are sharing their heartbreaking storiesโ€”the ones that Musk says were being paid to do nothingโ€”and making them famous? The cancer researcher on the verge of a breakthrough? The park ranger in Yosemite who wonโ€™t be there to conduct rescues and save lives? The air traffic controller who can speak to the connection between understaffing and recent plane crashes? Is it even safe to fly in Trumpโ€™s America?

The Democrats should be amplifying these folksโ€”writing op-eds about them, refusing to go on camera without sharing their spotlight, pressuring their IG influencers to raise them upโ€”but instead, we learn their stories from Reddit. As Moira Donegan wrote in The Guardian, โ€œWhy are the Democrats so spineless?โ€

I've noted some of the procedural things Democrats could be doing in Congress, but this point from @edgeofsports.bsky.social's great piece in the Nation deserves emphasis.

This is basic politics, and it's baffling that every Democrat isn't doing it every day.

Yes, this administration is dangerous and cruel, but they are also shockingly dim and incompetent.

Opportunities are everywhere.

Make everything as hard as possible. Resist every demand. Refuse entry without a warrant. Donโ€™t take the buyout. Their problem solving skills are ๐Ÿ“‰
