Donate — #AfghanEvac

We run on volunteers and individual donations — no institutional support, just commitment and grit.

After last week’s awful shooting, when some tried to blame Afghans, we pushed the narrative back to reality. That work matters, and it needs resources.

We Ain't Buying It - Target, Home Depot & Amazon

The President of the United States just called for my arrest and execution.

In these moments, fear is contagious, but so is courage:

Join us in canceling Disney Plus. Let’s boycott ABC and Disney. If you’ve already canceled, drop a “done” in the comments.

Done!

Reason for cancellation: "I strongly disagree with Disney-owned ABC's decision to take Jimmy Kimmel off the air; it's an attack on our First Amendment rights."

Just canceled Disney Plus and it feels so good! 🎉 💪 ❌👑

Nothing good can come from political violence. It doesn't matter where you stand politically—it's a cancer that needs to be rooted out.

Political violence from any party or any ideology is a direct assault on the foundations of democracy and the rule of law; it seeks not to persuade but to intimidate, not to debate but to destroy.

Congress is back from recess, which means your lawmakers are back at work voting on bills that affect you 🫵

The SAVE Act is one of those bills: which proposes to require proof of citizenship (such as a birth certificate or passport) to register to vote.

Trump's unprecedented takeover of D.C. police comes as crime is down, figures show The move has already caused confusion among federal agents tasked with tackling local crime. "No one knows who is in charge or what they're supposed to do," one official said.

Washington, D.C. is not just the government. There are over 700,000 people just like you who call it home. All people have the right to live in safe, peaceful neighborhoods.

But Donald Trump doesn’t care about other people, and he doesn't care about keeping other people safe.

The full quote:
"If you’re in a room and you know and agree with everyone, you’re not in a big enough room.

If you can only organize with people who agree with all your ideas, then you don’t have the stomach for the fight ahead."

I'm at a local Indivisible mtg & there was debate about different causes/approaches under the democracy umbrella. I'm reminded of the insightful quote from @mauricewfp.bsky.social:

"If you’re in a room and you know and agree with everyone, you’re not in a big enough room."
