Tyrants view educated citizens as their greatest enemy.
Slaveholders stopped the enslaved from learning to read. Nazis burned books. Dictators censor media.
That’s why Trump is attacking education, science, and the arts – to prevent us from learning.

Finn Harbin enjoys dessert after his chicken dinner. He licked it a few times and then played with it. 🤣

Donald Trump keeps losing in court.
That's why he's lashing out at judges who go against his authoritarian agenda — even going as far as to have them arrested.
His regime is starting to crack bit by bit. Keep up the pressure. www.politico.com/news/2025/04...

Judge blocks Trump executive order that strips union rights from federal workers
The judge suggested during a hearing Wednesday that the administration's moves appear targeted toward unions that have opposed his agenda.

The innocence of Abrego Garcia, Merwil Gutiérrez, and an estimated 90% of the people sent to El Salvador proves this was never about “criminals”.
It’s about racism.
It’s about state terror.
It’s about dehumanization.
Fascism takes hold when people stay silent. It’s up to all of us to speak up.

Before the election, I warned that there is no safe haven under authoritarianism.
If they can ship Kilmar Abrego Garcia to a foreign prison—accused of no crime, with no trial—they can do it to anyone.
Americans of conscience must stand against this now.

We are fighting back. Our movement has been silenced by the media here—but we are not backing down. This is what our streets looked like across multiple cities. Tomorrow, there will be more of us! Raise a glass to freedom.

We’re building a #PeoplesMovement.
Today, over 3 million people across the country stood up to say HANDS OFF our democracy.
And history shows that when just 3.5% of the population engages in sustained, peaceful resistance—transformative change is inevitable.

Politicians have no right to decide any curriculum for schools! Teachers/Educators are the experts - listen to us!
Yesterday the now farther right-wing WILLIAMSON COUNTY school board WCS overrode science textbook recommendations of middle school science teachers — despite the superintendent’s opposition to the move, as Eric Welch points out 👇🏽
