What your mother taught you: Tell the truth. Keep your word. Don’t take what doesn’t belong to you. Don’t mistreat people because they are weaker than you. Help someone who needs help. Take responsibility when you are wrong. Treat people the way you would want to be treated. —Standards Not Force

@sarahlongwell25.bsky.social Worthwhile to remember: “When dictators want to crack down on people speaking out, they hope for chaos. They want to make us look dangerous. They win when the story is about broken windows instead of broken systems.” —Choose Democracy Director Daniel Hunter

This sucks, but also means if you want coverage, contact your paper in advance of an action. Give them quotes. Send them to folks to interview. We did this for the NOAA protests and got wall to wall coverage for a week, with frontpages, opeds, and followups.

According to Dr David Kessler on Rachel Maddow, the doctor who saved Trump’s life when he had Covid has been fired. The doctor who saved his life.

Don’t plan on a new car, used car or car repairs anytime soon. Example of how intertwined car production is with our neighbors. But, he “couldn’t care less.”

Free them! Due process!

BREAKING: There are actions across the country today calling for the immediate release of illegally abducted and detained union members Rumeysa Ozturk and Lewelyn Dixon! ICE is acting like the gestapo and we can't turn a blind eye. Repost if you demand their release! #4The1st

When/if the dust dies down and Congress can legislate again, we must demand a limit to the number of Executive Orders a president can issue during any period of time. After a very brief examination of Bush and Obama EOs, my suggestion would be no more than 3-5 per quarter. 1/2
