Know your rights!

Safety depends on trustβ€”but when the Administration sends soldiers to cities and terrorized people stop reporting crime, what happens to society? Militarized crackdowns can destroy the trust that safety depends on. Have you seen this happen? #TruthBrigadeil truthbrigade.indivisible.org/s/EeYlDCQQ

Trump LIES again

DC’s violent crime: Lowest in 30 years

Trump's real motive: Power grab, martial law, quashing our 1st amendment rights to protest

Remember: The Power of the People is greater than the people in power!

Keep defending democracy

Trump's illegal tariffs are taxing us all, raising prices despite his promises. Congress can stop this but won't. Demand action from your representatives. Register and vote in November 2026 for accountability! #truthbrigade #truthbrigadeil

Taxes should be fair. Trump’s illegal tariffs are effectively a TAX on all of us. The brunt of that tax will be felt by the most vulnerable populations. This tax increase on all of us offsets the impact of the tax decrease on the rich. Is this a fair tax? NOPE #truthbrigade #truthbrigadeil

Abbott could have delivered flood relief without a special session. Instead, there is a blatant power grab going on. Blue states can no longer sit idly by as MAGA Republicans try to rig the rules.

We want leaders who stand with us and committed to improving our lives. During his campaign, Trump misled the public about the effects of tariffsβ€”and now, he’s misrepresenting what he said back then. We can't let this go unchecked. VOTE!

Young people have always led the fight for justice. Now some politicians are targeting Black and brown youth fighting for racial equity and punishing trans students for being themselves.

This is huge!

Trump is ramming his agenda through now, so he can’t be stopped laterβ€”shock & awe. But look at these approval numbersβ€”he’s underwater on our major issues.

Public opinion is against Trump & his policiesβ€”his approval rating is historically low. It’s only going to get worse… MUCH worse.

Tell Congress: Don't defund our communities President Trump’s decision to block trillions in federal funding to critical services already approved by Congress is a reckless, cruel, unprecedented power grab that will impact every one of us.

Donald Trump is trying to block trillions of dollars in federal funds to Meals on Wheels, Medicaid, and other critical programs that keep us safe and healthy. If allowed to go into effect, this would wreak havoc across the country.

Tell Congress: Trump cannot be allowed to defund our communities.

Whole Foods says Trump’s actions make union win moot Amazon’s Whole Foods says Trump’s firings that paralyzed a federal labor regulator invalidate a union vote at a Philadelphia store.

By illegally neutering the National Labor Relations Board, Trump has enabled Jeff Bezos to ignore the union victory at Whole Foods in Philadelphia.

Trump has given the green light to corporations to violate labor law with impunity. Unacceptable. www.washingtonpost.com/technology/2...

FACTS: "There are proposals from Republicans to cut $2.3 trillion from Medicaid." THIS is what it would do: It would destroy Medicaid. It wouldn't fight inflation. It wouldn't bring anybody's prices down. It would just steal people's health care #HandsOffOurMedicaid #TruthBrigadeIL #TruthBrigade
