Tyranny requires constant effort. Oppression is the mask of fear. Authority is brittle. And most importantly: you are never truly alone when standing up to authoritarianism. You have friends everywhere.

These Trump tariffs are getting out of hand.

Golden sunlight bursts through a tangle of budding trees, casting long beams of light across a mossy woodland floor. New green shoots push up through leaf litter and patches of moss, catching the glow of the morning sun. A soft haze fills the air, with a hint of warmth and life returning to the woods.

It's the Spring Equinox - the first astronomical day of spring! ☀️

Longer days. Lighter evenings.

Sunshine warm on your skin, birds singing, blossom in the branches.

If a US military coup isn’t being planned now, it should strongly be considered.

Period.

What you can do Ten ways to resist Trump II

Trump II has begun. Many people are asking: “What can I do now?”

Here are 10 recommendations. Please let me know your thoughts, and if you have anything else you'd like to add to the list.

Elon Musk says DOGE probably won't find $2 trillion in federal budget cuts Musk previously said his Department of Government Efficiency would be able to recommend cuts to the federal budget of “at least $2 trillion.”

Gosh, what a fucking surprise. It’s always a con with these guys.

This Man should be celebrated every January 6th for eternity. Eugene Goodman. Hero.

VP Donald Trump didn't expect that before even taking office, 38 Republicans would ignore his and President Musk's threats. The bill needed two-thirds to pass but failed to even clear a majority of 218 votes.

It was one of Trump's worst political defeats ever.

We're up to 4 wild years. Buckle up.

Evidently the GOP really doesn’t have a problem with foreigners taking over the country.

More of this. Call out the victimhood for the bad faith opportunistic theatrics that it is.

Cut him some slack he’s only had 8 years to think about this.

Norms are good. Pressure works. We need to protect norms. This feels like a small victory but every victory is in fact a victory.

Happy 100th Birthday to my Soror, the legendary late Congresswoman Shirley Chisholm! A trailblazer who shattered barriers and made history with unapologetic strength and fierce love for the people.

Your legacy still inspires me to fight for justice, equality, and a better tomorrow.

How to Combat the Dangers of Project 2025 From a reintroduction to Schedule F to a whole host of other proposals, legal organizations are preparing to fight Project 2025 in the courts.

Since Trump won the 2024 election, the mask is fully off: Project 2025 is the GOP's agenda.

Now pro-democracy groups are coming together to protect the people and communities most threatened by the plan.

It's 100% true.

Never put it past them that it could be on purpose to give him more “incentive” to bypass Congress for more extreme parts of their agenda

lol the whole platform doesn’t make sense but yet here we are 🤣

Funny how if wasn’t an issue in 2016 but all of sudden is one of the main issues in the 2024 campaign 🤔

Jimmy Kimmel just DESTROYED Donald Trump’s entire administration. 🤣

Happy Birthday to the man who convinced not to retire until I’m 80

He showed me you can achieve incredible things long past what anyone thought possible. For this I am forever in his debt and will miss him so dearly when he leaves.😔

Truly an American hero and legend 🇺🇸🇺🇸🇺🇸

Yes, libraries are invaluable for their collections and public services they offer, but also social contact without the expectation to interact with anyone or spend any money is so important to so many people

I just learned about this the other day… happy to see there is bipartisan support to expand the house. There is no reason why the house has to stay “capped” at 435 seats. It’s ridiculous and completely arbitrary and helps the narrative that our system isn’t working for most Americans.

Do. Not. Obey. In. Advance.

Pass it on.
