Trumpism:

1. Manufacture an excuse to attack and threaten your opponent
2. Deny everything
3. Declare victory regardless of what actually happens

While this gives the appearance of power and success, at some point reality reveals the chaos and destruction it causes.

Wake up America!

This story of an Iraq Veteran that was recently fired from her VA job helping other veterans just breaks my heart.

Stand up, push back, say something. Give the Truth a voice.

"Everyone is Welcome" should not be forbidden in a Public School. It is in Idaho.

We are in unchartered waters.

Our (WA) members of Congress have asked constituents to email rather than call when commenting on issues to keep the phones open for urgent calls from constituents that have lost their jobs due to the vicious and unconstitutional DOGE cuts.

Resolve is growing.

Bernie out there working.

Hey buddy, welcome aboard!
Here's a great speech by Senator Murray today. I like here tone, it's crystal clear that this is a mess and nobody knows what they are doing.

YouTube video by CNN 'My jaw is dropped': Canadian official's interview stuns Amanpour

Canadian Foreign Minister Joly is a truth teller. "We've had enough". Canada is not going to play games with Trump. They call a spade a spade. Trump's goal is to weaken Canada in order to annex it. They see the game he is playing. We up America! www.youtube.com/watch?v=z3rI...

Calling all patriotic Americans to not spend any money for the economic blackout on February 28, 2025

On Feb 28, we’re hitting them where it hurts: their wallets. Join the Economic Blackout—no spending, no shopping, no transactions. Billionaires & corporations rig the system against us. Let’s show our power by shutting it down for a day. Spread the word! #EconomicBlackout #NoSpendingDay

NO. At a time of massive income and wealth inequality we should not be giving tax breaks to billionaires. We should demand that they start paying their fair share.

YouTube video by Parkrose Permaculture I went to the No Kings Protest in Portland. Here's My Takeaway.

This Portland Oregon activist is a good resource for pushing back against what the Republicans are doing to our country.

If you wanted to cut waste, fraud, and abuse, you would empower the inspectors general.

If you wanted more waste, fraud, and abuse, you would fire them.

YouTube video by KOMO News Washington state leaders tell Trump to 'follow the damn law' on federal funding

Good for Washington State for standing up to this Administration's blatant disregard for the law and the President's betrayal of his Oath of Office.

I'm struck with how President Trump has really never solved anything. No infrastructure plan, no education plan, no healthcare plan. No public services.
Name one action he has taken that didn't involve hurting others, tearing something down, or destroying a public good.
Really. Name one.

Dear Republicans
90% of businesses fail from a hostile takeover:
-loss of momentum from chaos
-failing to retain talent
-failure to address cultural differences
-Acquier Superiority: believing you know more than others

You good with that 10% survival chance for us?

Your Country

Dear America,
We all need to learn what this word means.

When I was a teacher, my students and I always took time this month to honor the generations of Black Americans who fought against injustice to achieve equal rights.

May we all reflect on our past as we continue working to build a society that lives up to its democratic ideals.

White House Report Card for the Month of January
-Lower cost of Living (nope)
-Affordable Healthcare (nope)
- More Housing (nope)
-Realistic Immigration Legislation (remember you said no)
-Stable International Relations (worse)
-Reduce National Debt (you are about to add trillions)

Grade: Failing

Republicans give the rich tax breaks. They don't pay for the tax breaks, they just put it on the National Credit Card. Between Bush and Trump, the Republicans DOUBLED the national debt. In a few days they will do it again while trying to blame the debt on other people. Just look at the facts.

YouTube video by The Lincoln Project A Message to the US Senate

A message to the US Senate: America is watching. Patel, Gabbard, and RFK are more than just unfit. They are a danger to our country, and to our people's safety. Use your vote to protect the people you represent. History will remember your choice.

➡️ January 20: FAA director fired
➡️ January 21: Air Traffic Controller hiring frozen

Making America Great Again!

NPE Action Stands with Senator Murray in Opposing the Illegal Freezing of Federal Funding The sweeping, unprecedented directive is not only illegal, but will have severe consequences for real people in every part of the country—in red states and blue states and everywhere in between.

HUGE BREAKING NEWS:

Pete Buttigieg is seriously considering running for Senate in Michigan after Gretchen Whitmer says she wouldn’t run for the open seat.

Smash that RT if you agree Secretary Buttigieg would make a FANTASTIC Senator!! 💙💙

And so here we are. In just one week this President has already committed 3 illegal acts: changing who can become citizens, impounding money that Congress already approved, and illegally removing 15 Inspector Generals that are protected by law.
Congress is apparently ok with that.
I'm not.

"Without Fear or Favor" is how Democracies are supposed to work.
Dictatorships on the other hand, rely on fear and favor. How strange our country does not see what is happening as this President punishes his enemies and rewards those loyal only to him.

Most voters blamed Biden for the Cost of Living increase. The press rarely shows us the big picture. This chart does.

Our country deserves respectful governance. This is Republican cruelty designed to create fear and chaos.
This is just plain wrong.
