#BlueCrew - I think it's really important that we have millions of people attend these rallies around our nation. Reclaim democracy. Pick the best location for YOU but pick one and be there. Frog costumes optional.

#BlueCrew - keep up the great work Monica!

#BlueWave - Please join a national movement this coming Saturday and be counted. Peaceful protest by the largest crowd in history is our goal. Let's send a powerful message - we are proud to march against the loss of our democracy and against the promotion of fascism.

If you wish to address National Guard troops on the streets of your city, tell them, "I'm sorry they're making you do this," or "I bet you miss your family." Be kind to them. They are not ICE.

This is an important point.

Everyone one of these people has been asked to leave their home, their family, and their job to work without pay bc of the shutdown. We're better off thinking of ways to make this backfire on Abbott than to treat them poorly.

Texas National Guard troops arriving in Chicago (via ABC News)

Remember: These are not MAGA stormtroopers. These are everyday teachers and accountants who signed up to serve their country with their spare time. They're being used as political pawns by venal, un-American, draft-dodging president
