The federal government should not decide what your kids are allowed to read.
Oppose the Federal Book Ban bill!
Sign the petition and defend the freedom to read.

Trump doesn’t care about the future. He only wants to consolidate his power right now. I’m starting to believe that this was something that his cronies in the rest of the region wanted. The US military is now for hire.
My brother lives in the UAE - he can see Iran from his front door. Will the all-women’s school he teaches in get hit by Iranian bombs in retaliation for what the US has done?
Distract with war to stop the low polling #’s at home. Typical.
Tell your rep: vote no on HR 7661.
List of what is wrong with the bill.
Names of those on the committee.
Call your reps and tell them that this is based on ideology, misleads parents, does not protect kids, and harms school funding.
House Reps have introduced HR 7661, “Stop the Sexualization of Children Act.” Will ban LGBTQ books & “some” classic novels. Call the House Education & Workforce Committe (member list here: edworkforce.house.gov/committee/fu...) Please call or write either party - they need to hear from you!
Hope ya’ll are watching Move On/Meidas Touch People’s State of the Union!
If you do nothing else today, watch Heather Cox Richardson’s take on the US invasion of Venezuela. Yes, it’s the oil + a whole lot more. www.facebook.com/heathercoxri...
Crucial for the midterms!
While I think these actions are valuable, I’m also in favor of everyone withholding their federal taxes - if we don’t give them any money, they can’t fund their insanity.
Sadly, anyone who isn’t white or from a European country should stay out of the United States for the FIFA World Cup. Go to Mexico and Canada, but don’t come here you risk being arrested and deported. So ashamed of this country.
What if we ALL (1) stopped paying federal taxes (except SSI), (2) stopped paying our health insurance premiums? Stop thinking we need them! They need us! ✊
On Tuesday night the country spoke loud and clear - Dems were told to fight. On Sunday night, 8 Dems caved. All “safe” - just re-elected or retiring. Schumerism at its worst!
This deal to reopen the government is fucking disgraceful.
Tens of millions will lose their healthcare. Trump will be emboldened.
This is exactly what’s wrong with Democratic Party leadership and why we need more people in Congress who will actually hold the line.
Layoffs are reaching their highest levels since the pandemic, but America's corporate elite have never been doing better.
Is it any wonder why so many think the system is rigged?

He’s the most frightening person in the administration. He’s running it all.

It’s time for CA to stop sending its taxes to the federal government. If the dictator wants to cut off funding, we should keep our own money-it’s OUR money he’s not giving us! No more donor state for us!
If you care about our democracy, donate today! Yes on CA Prop 50! secure.actblue.com/donate/erra-...
The Wright only believes in free speech for itself. No one else has a right to their opinions or beliefs. The hypocrisy is astounding.
Notice how no one is talking about this anymore?
Not normally a conspiracy theorist but Kirk called for the release of the Epstein files and now he’s dead & the files are off the news. Trump knew about the death immediately and turned it into an attack on the Left. Hmm.
So apparently only the right gets to have opinions and if you express a different view you are going to be doxxed. See how that works?
Trump’s Gestapo
I haven’t been on here much lately. I traveled in Europe this summer - people actually asked if we thought this was the end of US democracy and we answered, “yes.” Coming home was just so depressing. Wish I were feeling more positive about things, but right now, moving to Greece is looking good.
Read the article - many of these programs had zero enrollment or graduation. While I’m always skeptical of why college programs would be cut, there’s also some rationale here that makes sense.
