BREAKING: The scene at the Rayburn Building is pure rebellion. Protesters are swarming in during live hearings on Medicaid cuts.

Security’s losing control. Because when the government wages war on the poor, the poor fight back.

The toplines in this report are damning, but the details are even worse. Most importantly, this didn't happen because Elon is a fascist. It happened because people show up every week to tell their neighbors Elon is a fascist. Sustained protest works. #teslatakedown

The first posy in a thimble I made, to lift my mood during the pandemic. The flowers are all real.

When humans look at plants (even on a screen as here) we recover from stress 60% more quickly & the relaxation response is triggered in our brains.

Zoom in if you're strung out🌿

STOP telling America we are in a Constituional crisis (which we are)

IF IT’S A GDMF CRISIS, ACT LIKE IT!

We don’t want to see more speeches & interviews. We want to see open rebellion from YOU!!

I'm tired of watching this administration terrorize everyone who isn't a billionaire to steal more money for billionaires, so I'll be in the streets. Who's coming with me?
Join your local protest on April 19th. Spread the word.

Forcing people to pay $130 for a passport in order to vote is just a Jim Crow poll tax by another name.

It is blatantly unconstitutional.

What is the National Tax Strike? It's a movement to stop paying federal income taxes to an unconstitutional government with unchecked powers. You can join at anytime - not just during tax season.

if we want to rebuild american institutions and earn back the world’s trust after this we cannot settle for half-measures. lots of people need to go prison. lots more need to be permanently stripped of wealth and power.
