What was on the ballot was: jackbooted thugs violently beating American citizens including veterans, seniors, women and children.

AOC: “We have a future to plan for, we have a future to fight for, and we’re either gonna do that together or you’re going to be left behind… This is about: do you understand the assignment of fighting fascism right now, and the assignment is to come together across difference no matter what.”

Trump illegally withheld $5.5 billion in SNAP funds, defying Congress & the courts.

He’d rather let 16 million kids go hungry than obey the law.

After threats & delays, the WH now says it will “comply" w/ a court order to fund SNAP.

This is chaos. No way to run the government.

There is light at the end of this tunnel.

Keep fighting.
Keep organizing.
Keep voting.
Keep protesting.
Keep boycotting.
Keep informing.
Keep resisting.
Keep hoping.

We will not only get through this—we will end fascist and oligarchic rule, and build a democratic future that works for all of us.

Your reminder that this administration is attacking rights on multiple fronts. One might not affect you now but eventually… something will. Remember this started with “we’re only going to arrest criminals” and now we’re at the millions could starve. All this why changing laws to criminalize existing

REMINDER: while 42 million people have been plunged into hunger, please do not forget that we are on the eve of the mass nullification of marriages and the bastardization of children when the Supreme Court overturns gay marriage on Friday.

God help us all.

Yup, think about places like Whole Foods who market themselves as the healthier choice. Why is it that the choice most healthy for people has a financial barrier to entry? We could literally circumvent all these companies by starting community gardens in our local communities!

Here’s a guide!

This seems rather bad— the Trump regime’s top officials are moving onto protected military bases.

Stephen Miller, Marco Rubio, Kristi Noem, and others have taken over homes that until recently housed senior officers.

THREE WAYS TO TAKE ACTION NOW

1. Donate to your local food bank.

2. Collect and distribute to your local community shelter. Check with your local organizations first to see what they need most.

3. Host a give-back drive in your community. Visit NoKings.org/alliance to learn more.

He is building a bunker.

Booze Allen is not an architecture firm.

Leaked document. Yikes, things are about to get much worse. It looks like we’re on the verge of becoming a military state across the country. Step out of line, and the man come and take you away.
