#MilwaukieOR held an evening protest with hundreds of people peacefully, joyfully exercising our #ConstitutionalRights! @indivisible.org @wyden.senate.gov @jeff-merkley.bsky.social

#MilwaukieOR knows how to protest like it’s 1776! #NoKings @indivisible.org @wyden.senate.gov @jeff-merkley.bsky.social

This is so awesome and so Portland! 🥰

“HONK IF YOU’RE NOT IN THE EPSTEIN FILES” is such a good sign. 🙌

Woman in an inflatable T-Rex costume wearing a t-shirt protesting the ongoing disappearance of indigenous women and holding a sign reading “Believe Virginia Guiffre.” Man behind her holding a sign reading “Distracted from Epstein yet?”

Small boy holding a sign reading, “‘Antifa’ is short for Anti-Fascist and is Pro-American! (And I made this sign myself—for free!) #NoKings” Woman holding a sign reading, “No Kings in America! (1 if by Land, 2 if by D.C.)”

Sign says “Super callous fragile bigot. Help us, he’s atrocious”

Protesters line both sides of Sunnyside Ave, holding many varied, clever signs.

More peace and joy at our #NoKings protest in Clackamas, OR! 🥳 @wyden.senate.gov @jeff-merkley.bsky.social

How Robert F. Kennedy, Jr.,’s Anti-Vax Agenda Is Infecting America A vaccine expert warns that the Secretary of Health and Human Services is deliberately sowing confusion in order to drive down immunization uptake.

A leading vaccine expert warns of the Trump Administration’s effort to limit COVID shots at pharmacies, which would be “disastrous” for the American public.

White sign with black lettering highlighted in red & blue, stating, “The CRIME WAVE in Washington, D.C. is INSIDE the WHITE HOUSE!”

Made a new sign for the #LaborDayProtests but didn’t get out of the house early enough to make it to the one in E PDX, so I’m sharing it here:

While billionaires convert the government into their private slush fund, we’re coming together to demand a country that puts workers first. #LaborDay2025

A betrayal of the victims of the Holocaust A view from Israel

Israel is betraying all Holocaust victims by perpetrating a new holocaust on the Palestinian people. #GazaHolocaust #HumanRightsViolation #GazaUnderAttack open.substack.com/pub/robertre...

Just a reminder that the daily kidnappings & illegal incarceration in concentration camps is an unconscionable violation of human rights #Indivisible #UnitedWeStand #GoodTrouble #Deicing

Good Trouble Lives On On July 17, five years since the passing of Congressman John Lewis, communities across the country will take to the streets, courthouses, and community spaces to carry forward his fight for justice, v...

We’re facing the most brazen rollback of our rights and fundamental freedoms in generations. It’ll take sustained, united, peaceful pushback to salvage our liberties from the fascist MAGA agenda. Join us on Thursday to “make good trouble” in response to Trump’s attacks on our civil and human rights.

Vice President Harris and Douglas Emhoff watch fireworks at the White House on July 4, 2024.

This Fourth of July, I am taking a moment to reflect. Things are hard right now. They are probably going to get worse before they get better.

But I love our country — and when you love something, you fight for it. Together, we will continue to fight for the ideals of our nation.

So glad we all get to experience the Most Ironic Independence Day In American History.

Senate Dems Force EVERY WORD in Trump’s Big Beautiful Bill to be Read on the Floor Before Vote YouTube video by Senator Cory Booker

I urge my Republican colleagues to listen to what they would be voting for: drastic cuts to Medicaid, increased costs for working Americans, and skyrocketing deficits.

Alright everyone. Republicans are going to force a vote on their gender affirming care provision even though it violates Senate rules. They’ll need 60 votes to keep it in. Now is the time to make your voice heard and ask your Senators to stand on the side of health care freedom.

Protesters holding an oversized orange Cheeto with a crown & comb-over, a sign saying, “A king is only a king if we bow,” and an American flag.

Protesters holding signs that say, “I.C.E. = Gestapo 2.0,” “Civil Rights Matter,” and “No Kings in America! (1 if by Land, 2 if by D.C.)”

Protester dressed in a Green Knight costume festooned with ivy and flowers, holding a plastic skeleton with the name “Ozymandias” across the forehead (a reference to the poem by Percy Bysshe Shelley).

Protesters stretching far down the sidewalk. One sign reads, “Hands Off Clean Energy”

Our joyful, peaceful #NoKings protest in Clackamas was awesome! Too many people to see how far it stretched—at least a couple thousand, I think. Kids w/braces to the elderly sitting on their walkers, all w/creative homemade signs. 🥰🚫👑 #IndivisibleOregon

Hit the streets tomorrow.
Be nonviolent.
Be joyfully defiant.
Be defiantly joyful.
Ridicule him.
Condemn fascism.
Oppose I.C.E.
Affirm diversity.
Embody America.
Love your neighbor.
Refuse to be intimidated.
Be safe.
Be loud.
Be encouraged.

Jeffries: Yes Joni, the American people know that at some point in their lives, they are going to pass away. The cause of death should not be Republican cruelty

No Kings On June 14—Flag Day—Donald Trump wants tanks in the street and a made-for-TV display of dominance for his birthday. A spectacle meant to look like strength. But real power isn’t staged in Washington. ...

Congress’s Big, Bad Budget Bill is a Dream for Polluters and Billionaires Together, we can fight back to protect our families.

President Trump's budget bill sells out our public lands, cuts job-creating clean energy tax credits, & lets polluters buy their way out of accountability.

Lawmakers backing this bill are voting against our health, our communities, and our planet.

🔥 @RepMcGovern: “THIS IS NOT POLICY. THIS IS THEFT… done under the cover of night.” #TrumpsTrillionsTransfer

The Last Class Film

For #TeacherAppreciationWeek, we want to shine a light on our most under-appreciated leaders.

The Last Class is a reflection of the educators who show up every day, despite a system that asks the impossible. It's a love letter to the teaching profession that means so much to @rbreich.bsky.social.

"This disappointing vote doesn't need to become law if House members consider how many constituents are benefitting - and will benefit in the future from this program. The enthusiasm for this vote was low. E-Rate, supported financially by the Universal Service Fund, is wildly popular. Individuals and families need internet access and digital skills training that libraries are uniquely suited to provide. Hotspots provided through the federal E-Rate program offer flexible, at-home opportunity for internet access, which individuals and families need, along with digital skills training, and that libraries are uniquely suited to provide." - ALA President Cindy Hohl. Show up for our libraries, American Library Association.

ALA is deeply disappointed in the result of today's Senate vote to reject using #ERate funding for wi-fi hotspot programs. The E-Rate program is broadly popular and admired, helping millions of Americans get online through the library and at school. More from ALA President Cindy Hohl ⤵️

Do you already have the PlantNet app? It’s crowd-sourced citizen science, but it’s free, unlike PictureThis. Could help you avoid painful or itchy hands & arms!

Buttigieg: Like I love A1 steak sauce, but A1 steak sauce is not one of the most important things confronting humanity right now. Artificial intelligence is. And somebody who doesn't understand that probably should not be leading an important federal agency.
