Sigh. 🇺🇦
Tune in bright and early! 📻
Crockett: They have a Trump trifecta. So, if the government shuts
down, it is going to be on Trump and his minions. It is not going to be on us because we weren't elected to gut social security, medicaid, medicare, and USAID. That's not what we campaigned on. So that's not what we're going to do.
One Wisconsin man stands in the way of moms getting postpartum care covered by medicaid and he tweets shit like this
Trick question.
Do you the link to or name of the study? Can’t wait to see who’s behind it
A notecard with the prompt, "What is something that was important to you that was taken in a sweep? How did it impact you?" The handwritten statement below says, "My momma’s ashes were displayed on my table in my tent. I came back one day — and EVERYTHING was gone, including her ashes. They were clearly labled ‘In loving memory — my mom, my best friend…’ and her name. Her ashes were all that I had left of her. No one stored my stuff. I called tons of places and NO ONE knew anything. It is very difficult for me still, everyday. No warning, no remorse, nothing."
A notecard with the prompt, "What is something that was important to you that was taken in a sweep? How did it impact you?" The handwritten statement below says, “It’s hard to narrow my list down. One particularly devastating (for me) sweep took EVERYTHING I owned at the time I was gone from my spot for a couple nights. Save for my wallet, ID, and the clothes on my back, I had not brought anything with me. Unaware of the sweep, I returned to find my tent, my cot, all my clothing, several files with important document, literally everything; all of it, gone.”
A notecard with the prompt, "What is something that was important to you that was taken in a sweep? How did it impact you?" The handwritten statement below says, “Lost my clothes tents more than once all my personal items i.e. pictures family photos and kids birth certificates and it really sucked how they did it and bulldozed everything I owned litterally bulldozed it.”
A notecard with the prompt, "What is something that was important to you that was taken in a sweep? How did it impact you?" The handwritten statement below says, “Winter bedding & personal memorabilia pictures, things that can’t be replaced. One winter in the middle of the night they came and took bedding only now they mess with us every day now I try to keep it to a backpack and cart try to.”
People who experienced homeless encampment sweeps in Washington state and Tennessee wrote about the impact it had on their lives.

I'm sorry, but "they took over the whole federal payments system, fired the career staff, and won't let anybody see what they're doing" is not a situation in which you wait for more information. It's a situation in which you assume the worst. There's no explanation for it other than rampant crimes.
#Wisconsin is one of only two states that has not expanded Medicaid for Postpartum Women. Assembly speaker Robin Vos is blocking. Light him up 📲🔥
True leaders emerge in chaos. Show us what you’re made of.
We are in the age of social media and it doesn't matter what things are or aren't, all that matters is how things are perceived. Know your values and let them guide you. Trust yourself enough to know that if you misspeak or need to clarify something, that you have the skills and humility to do so.
Talk to the camera in stories and give an update. Ask your followers/constituents if they have questions (use the question box feature for this to collect). Make video and responses from those and post as reels (see @mallorymcmorrow) 4/
Hop on IG live over lunch or in the evening. Get real with people about what's going on. Be ok showing emotion. Monitor the comments and questions coming in live and respond to some. Try and do this at least 2x/week. 3/
Send out a tweet/thread/bluesky and an IG post every day by 10am with your thoughts on the previous day's EO and/or other alarming news. “Here's what happened, this is illegal and cruel, here's what I'm doing to stop it" 2/
Democratic lawmakers need to build out a rapid response process and start practicing it fast. We are beyond the days of carefully crafted statements. People need to see you show up early and often. Here are some ways you can do that ➡️ 1/
Alright so, as the kids say: “that last post didn’t age well.” That was from the *before times*.
Still juggling platforms though so if you’re off of all Meta, subscribe to our substack: open.substack.com/pub/motherho...
Hello and goodbye. We don’t need another platform. We need more accessible and unregulated health care, paid leave, affordable child care, gun reform and a nap. Also, funding to help scale our efforts in reaching Wisconsin women. Find us on IG, threads, or get in touch kate@motherhoodforgood.com ✨
