It may not be cool or hip in some circles, but we legitimately do need a massive amount of people to run for office.

Flood the school boards, councils, county seats, state legislatures, Congress, etc.

Big changes at the top happen when the ground shifts at the bottom. And that can start now.

Donald Trump has reportedly spent an estimated $10.7 million worth of taxpayer money to play golf since his inauguration.

This is happening as Head Start programs have struggled to access previously approved federal funding due to the Trump admin's illegal impoundment.

Aides to Elon Musk charged with running the U.S. government human resources agency have locked career civil servants out of computer systems that contain the personal data of millions of federal employees.

HOLD UP.

Did Trump just say he will put tariffs on medications?

Americans already pay more for prescription medications than anywhere in the world - and he wants us to pay EVEN MORE?

Americans want cheaper drug prices. Trump is giving us higher taxes instead.

Let me say this clearly. The tariffs are a money grab. Less money in the hands of the American people due to the new 25% tax on goods. More money to distribute to his cronies in the form of tax cuts.

See how it works?

As Trump vows to embrace fossil fuels, U.S. climate policy won't change quickly President Trump's first weeks in office included executive orders that aim to stop or roll back former President Biden's ambitious climate agenda and redirect the country's attention to fossil fuels.

Replacing civil servants with loyalists.

Upending the lives of millions who rely on federal programs.

Grotesquely blaming "DEI" for disaster.

Trump wants to consolidate power through divide-and-conquer tactics. We must stand together and fight back. youtu.be/wSYbNcjGjhA?...

Costco to raise hourly pay for most US store workers to over $30 Retailer Costco Wholesale will increase pay for most of its hourly U.S. store workers to more than $30, according to a memo sent to employees this week.

Costco - the only company to publicly come out in support of Diversity initiatives despite pressure from the GOP and they just raised the pay for their workers. Stop shopping at Target.

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. Don’t take the buyout. Their problem solving skills are πŸ“‰

I want to hear more from her! She understands the, let's call it "balance of power" that societies have always had with their wealth-driven citizens throughout history.

We, as a society, have failed to hold our own wealthy accountable to cultural expectations, laws, and democracy.

Trump’s Early Actions Mirror Project 2025 Plan He Once Dismissed President Donald Trump’s blitz of executive actions align with many of the ideas promoted in a conservative policy blueprint he once distanced himself from.

President Trump has signed Executive Orders that would raise costs, eliminate good-paying jobs in clean energy, and open the floodgates for Big Oil companies.

Just like Project 2025 called for.

The propaganda of political division gives the illusion that it’s possible to punish the opposite party and not your own. As if there are two Americas and we can target our enemies to hurt only them. It’s a damn shame it will take Trump hurting all of America for some to find out we were never separate groups in the first place. Quote by Melissa Nadia Viviana

We have to stop dividing our problems into β€œleft and right" and start seeing our problems like β€œtop vs bottom.”

737 billionaires in the U.S. have a combined wealth of 5.5 trillion. And they funneled it out of the middle class.

Then Trump keeps us fighting with each other while they steal more.
