We expected 2,000 people out in GOP-held Greeley, Colorado.
11,000 people showed up.
Something special is happening, folks. Now is the time to organize in every dimension possible and get to work.
Absolutely stunning and very concerning. Why is no one stopping this*?????
*This 100% happened, because I read three news articles about it. I’m too tired to search for them, so feel free to vet this yourself.
None of us can be sure what will “work.” You try multiple things and find your way in. Read some histories of the Civil Rights Movement by those who participated. They were never “sure” of what would work. Some campaigns fizzled out. But persistence, creativity, determination, and focus were key.
Dang they put it in writing.
Say it louder for the people in the back!!
People are getting up off the mat.
No thanks, Apple.
Keep your StarLink.

The most surreal and maddening feature of the campaign was that everyone agreed that high prices were the main issue but the guy explicitly, consistently running on a platform of raising everyone’s prices won voters most concerned about high prices.
We hammered this time and time again and yet.
THE ASK This week, between Monday and the vote on Vought, we're asking people from all over the country to plan a visit to Senate State Offices to demand Democrats fight and to hold Republicans accountable for their complicity. DEMOCRATS MUST USE EVERY PROCEDURAL TOOL TO SHUT DOWN TRUMP'S AGENDA Yes, we need Democrats to vote no on Vought's nomination, but no is not enough. Democrats have the power to grind Senate business to a halt and force Republicans to feel the political cost of backing Trump's extremist agenda. Here's how: 1. Deny a Quorum: If Republicans don't have 51 votes in the chamber, Democrats can walk out and shut down Senate business entirely. 2. Block Unanimous Consent: Object to every procedural shortcut, forcing Republicans to take the longest possible route for every step of the confirmation process. 3. Max Out Debate Time: Use all 30 hours of debate on Vought to expose Project 2025, Musk's Treasury takeover, and the funding freeze. 4. Delay and Disrupt: Force roll-call votes, quorum calls, and procedural delays to slow everything down. 5. Blanket Opposition: Democrats cannot continue to vote for Trump's other nominees, helping to install more MAGA loyalists into powerful positions in the federal government while this power grab continues. No Business as Usual: This is a constitutional crisis. Democrats must abandon the old rules and fight with everything they have. Bottom line: Senate Democrats must block, delay, and obstruct every step of this process-no cooperation, no easy votes, no fast-tracking Trump's takeover. To learn more about how Senate Democrats can shut down Trump's agenda with procedural hardball, check out our explainer here.
Indivisible is urging people to visit their senators' local offices between now and Thursday to demand that they use every tool—including denying a quorum and blocking unanimous consent—to fight the confirmation of Project 2025 architect Russell Vought for head of OMB docs.google.com/document/d/1...
Reddit's r/FedNews is on fire.
How can we get @mcuban.bsky.social @thetraecrowder.bsky.social @betoorourke.bsky.social and @aoc.bsky.social in room together (also MacKenzie Scott?) I feel like that’s the disruptive energy we need right now.
Exactly this!! I get that it’s shock and awe but we have 2-3 elected officials doing what you are asking! Out of hundreds!!
This is what the government did with 120K+ Japanese Americans in 1942.
I know. I was there in those camps.
again this is a full scale attack on constitutional government
🎯 Hear this, friends!
“Your acquiescence will not save you.” 💯
David Hogg is running for DNC Vice Chair.
"I’ve been impacted by that failed political system far too much, and I want to fucking fix it.”
They call it a freeze—we call it theft.
When Congress approves💰for programs that help Americans, that💰should go where it belongs: to the people.
When POTUS blocks💰 for his own agenda he isn’t just stalling progress—he’s stealing from taxpayers.

It feels to me like there are too many rules about people fighting fascism. Like you can’t be on meta, or talk about Israel, but also self care - but not like that. Can we just be on the side that’s not driving the county off a cliff?
So much for focusing on meritocracy. Lol
Great news.
A transgender woman will NOT be transferred to a men's prison facility and forcibly detransitioned, at least for now.
Trump administration has been enjoined from doing so by a judge.
First win in court, as the case continues.

Yes - without comms, everything else is pointless. We need more Trae Crowder and AOC cutting through the noise.
This! If we don’t figure out the communication piece everything else is pointless.
We 1000 percent do!! Trinidad is where Cambridge Analytica got their toes wet. So this really hit hard because this is CA on steroids.
If you read nothing else on the internet today - read/watch this. It’s important to understanding the work we have to do.
Wow! Wish it was a Substack. Also wish I knew how to fight back.
Oh this needs to be a Substack!! This is so good. I feel like I’ve been in a panic attack for a week not because of the president - a lot of that was expected - but because Zuck just pulled off the mask and revealed he was part of the data mining and that was a major WTF.
Forgot to follow weather people on blue sky and got caught by surprise with the rains tonight!
