Great idea!! Thanks

In 2026, I'm calling on the Legislature to:
🏠 Prevent property tax increases for homeowners
🛒 Lower costs for working families
💊 Make medication more affordable
🩺 Cut healthcare costs
✏️ Invest in our kids and schools

Let’s work together and get good things done.

Gregory Bovino Gets Demoted The Border Patrol chief was the public face of a traveling immigration crackdown on cities governed by Democrats.

Exclusive: Border Patrol “Commander at Large” Gregory Bovino has been removed from his role and is expected to retire soon, sources tell @nickmiroff.bsky.social.

Remember: If we allow ourselves to fall into fatalism, or wallow in disappointment, or become resigned to what is rather than what should be, we will lose the long game.

The greatest enemy of positive social change is cynicism about what can be changed.

Non-masked MN National Guard are out handing out hot chocolate, coffee and donuts to protesters. One simple act has de-escalated the situation and helped gain the trust of people. See the difference between professional soldiers and the pretend tough guys in CBP and ICE?

Pete Hegseth Should Sit This One Out By inserting himself into the situation in Minnesota, the secretary of defense is only making things worse.

"Hegseth’s apparent desire to get involved in the Minnesota debacle is dangerous not only to the lives of innocent Americans, but to American democracy itself," @radiofreetom.bsky.social argues:

Yes, Senator Baldwin. Thank you for being clear.

Everyone else, call Ron Johnson:

Believe it when you’re told not to watch violent videos. Cannot be unseen. It is bad enough to read what happened and see it in your mind’s eye.

April 7 in neon white on a green background.

Do you know why this date is important? Because it’s the date of our Supreme Court election. Memorize it. Share it. Be ready.

Repeat after me - the institutions of this economy depend on the institutions of this democracy, among which is the rule of law

American Democracy Is Showing Signs of Life One year into Trump’s second term, the country’s institutions and civil society are still checking his authoritarian impulses.

Trump has likely wasted his opportunity to consolidate durable authoritarian rule in the United States. But he can still do a great deal of damage.

i think this MLK day the thing to focus on is the strategic focus and tactical brilliance of the civil rights movement and the way it was laser focused on a set of achievable goals

We now have a full-blown European-American crisis, and for no reason that the president is able to articulate

What is state terror? 🧵

Living a moral life in an age of bullies requires collective action; it cannot be done alone. Each of us must organize and participate in a vast network of moral resistance. From this solidarity we will grow stronger. This is what our current moment requires.

This could be the unified Dem position. It is wildly popular. Puts the regime on defense on two fronts at the same time. Good policy, good politics.

#WI03 Rep. Derrick Van Orden tweeted 30 times yesterday. He still refuses to hold an in-person town hall with his constituents.

Good thread about how elections work, why the President can’t cancel them (not even Trump), and how we must push back against doomsayers

Do not comply in advance

Trump and his administration can’t stop lying 🤥

The so-called party of free speech and small government is happily supporting armed, masked government agents conducting “show me your papers” stops and brutalizing U.S. citizens.

Their real “party values” are terrorizing communities of color and anyone else who speaks out.

Remember this.

Sen. Kelly: “I just never expected that I would have to protect the rule of law against a Secretary of Defense…Pete Hegseth is now coming after what I earned through my 25 years of military service…He doesn't like what I said so now he is trying to censure and demote me.”

Love to see it!! Thank you for sharing the pics.

Photo of a Woman standing on a snow verge at the protest with a sign that reads "ICE Kills Good"

Two People standing on the verge of a road at the protest carrying signs. First one Reads "Destroy ICE" which has a sketch of the Statute of Liberty overlaying an American Flag and Lady Liberty's Torch is melting a block of ICE. The second sign read's "Abolish ICE" with the image of two flamethrowers melting a block of Ice

Two People Standing on the snowcovered road side carrying signs on brown paper. One Sign reads "I Like My Ice Crushed". The Second sign says "Resist" and shows an American Flag being flown upside down(an indication of destress)

A Photo of me holding sign that reads "No Hate No Fear No ICE" in one hand and an large American flag in the other hand. Funnily enough I didn't come with the flag, some one who had to leave handed it too me

So Thanks to @monroecountywidems.bsky.social found out about an #ICEOout Protest in my home county. On a cold windy day with about 36 hours notice the new local Indivisible group got about 40-50 ppl out to make our voices heard! These are just my photos

Copy of (reformatted) Some Actions That Are Not Protesting or Voting Some Actions That Are Not Protesting or Voting A list adapted from & inspired by Frontline Medics. Here was their original list of 25 actions. I’ve added a lot of things and edited other things. [Not...

@prisonculture.bsky.social has made an amazing list she keeps available here.

And “Blueprint for Revolution“ by Srđa Popović. He was one of the leaders involved in overthrowing Milosevic. The book is full of stories of effective actions taken against other regimes. It’s good for mindsetting.
