It’s important to know that a lot of productive activity is happening in person and offline, too.

Not all of it can be broadcast online, but we’ve had hundreds of people showing up to our trainings, mobilizations, and more.

Keep going. Tyranny is eroded by a sea of small acts. Everything matters.

It’s pretty insane that a private citizen can come in, hijack federal government servers, fire people, and steal their PII.

As an atheist maybe I'm not qualified to weigh in, but I'm pretty sure the biblical jesus wouldn't approve of churches demonizing women, hoarding money, and contributing nothing to the public while the people go hungry and broke trying to pay for basic healthcare.

Republicans are so accustomed to whining from the minority that when they’re actually in the majority and still can’t manage to pass a bill, their automatic reflex is to blame the Democrats.

Republicans wanted the majority. They got it. Learn how to fucking govern.

Holy sh*t! The U.S. Senate is considering putting forth BIPARTISAN legislation to apply TERM LIMITS on Supreme Court justices.

RT if you ABSOLUTELY support term limits for the Supreme Court!! 💙
(2/9) According to a July 2024 survey, 68% of Americans support term limits for Supreme Court justices. This includes:
90% of Democrats
59% of independents
48% of Republicans
Yes, term limits have bipartisan backing. A rare moment of unity, folks. 🙌

If you want to understand why healthcare pricing is horrific, the first thing to know is that our system puts 100% of the credit risk for deductibles, copays and co-insurance on hospitals and doctors. That's insane.

We have turned them into Sub Prime Lenders 🧵

The Democratic leaders right now need to wake the F up: a wildfire is racing toward us, the urgent presence of whoever has water hoses/access to water supply is needed, yet they fall asleep instead. We need more than loading our courts with federal judges.That's not enough! @aoc.bsky.social

"The US is the only industrialized country that treats healthcare like a commodity and not a necessity."

All Americans should have access to the healthcare they need & no one should have to go into medical debt because they needed medical care.

It is clear from his interview today that Trump is going to expect Bondi and Patel to investigate and prosecute his political opponents. Three questions:

How will the media cover?
What will pro-democracy leaders and orgs do?
Most important: Who will stand up and who will obey?

This we need
Two senators have introduced a constitutional amendment that would establish term limits for Supreme Court justices, a long-shot escalation of the congressional effort to overhaul the nation’s highest court amid ethics scandals and sinking public approval.
Supreme Court term-limits amendment proposed by Sens. Manchin, Welch
The long-shot proposal by Sen. Peter Welch (D-Vermont) and outgoing Sen. Joe Manchin III (I-West Virginia) would impose 18-year term limits on new justices.

Discovery 2: Vulnerable programs like foreign aid are very small.
