There are few things I enjoy more on a cold, wet, wintry day than driving past a line of shivering commuters stuck at a bus stop in the rain, with my radio and my heater both blasting on full.
In fact, that's probably the main reason I became a bus driver in the first place.

It’s time to tell on ICE.
The Democrats on the Oversight Committee have launched a tracking system to hold the Trump Administration accountable by compiling a record of possible ICE and CBP misconduct.

We all have that one crazy, racist older relative who makes Thanksgiving dinner awkward by threatening to impose martial law on his political enemies.

Just a reminder as we approach Black Friday. #WeAintBuyingIt
That’s right! WE AIN’T BUYING IT!
“The campaign urges consumers to avoid shopping at major retailers, specifically Amazon, Home Depot, and Target, from Thanksgiving through Cyber Monday. Organizers encourage participants to redirect their holiday spending to small and local businesses instead”.

Over the last year, you could have given into anger and despair.
Instead, you’ve organized in the largest numbers this country has ever seen to reclaim the power of the pro-democracy majority.
We could not be more thankful for you and everything you’re doing to defy Trump’s agenda.

Remember, it can take days to defrost your turkey if you just leave it sitting in the refrigerator.
A simple hack is to instead put it in your toilet 48 hours in advance, where the flow of relatively warmer liquids will ensure it's ready to go on Thanksgiving morning.

An opportunity today to sign-up for phone-banking in Tennessee. Turning over a 20 point margin from 2024 is a tall order. But of the special elections so far in 2025 the Democratic candidate has beaten ‘24 by 16 points. So not impossible, and a turnover in TN would send a message DC could not ignore
📣 TN-7 Volunteers Needed
We need volunteers to help phonebank for Aftyn and drivers to help get voters to the polls. Some voters are 1–2 counties away from their polling place.
☎️ Phonebank sign-up: mobilize.us/s/JE9vIk
🚗 Drive-to-the-polls volunteers: email [email protected]

Any time you say goodbye to someone, it's important to tell them to "take care", because otherwise they'll probably forget to do that.
