Call your members of Congress and demand that they step up.

The Contrarian@contrariannews.org

From the erosion of checks and balances to escalating political violence and congressional inaction, this Constitution Day brings much to reckon with. Nick Penniman reminds us that restoring our democratic values depends on unity.

They’ve defied our courts, deported American citizens, disappeared people off the streets, and slashed our services—all while orchestrating a massive giveaway to their billionaire allies. Enough is enough. Join us in 1 hour for the No Kings rally on CSU’s campus South of the Lory Student Center.

This is the violence we knew would happen the moment he pardoned the Jan 6 criminals.

UPDATE: Writings mentioning names of multiple lawmakers were found in the car of person suspected of killing Democratic Minnesota lawmaker and her husband, and injuring a second lawmaker, Minnesota police official says.

Mad about the news? Voice your outrage by showing up. 1800 events in all 50 states to choose from.

This is a watershed moment. Senator Padilla getting thrown to the ground and handcuffed. Trump admitting his mass deportations are targeting hard-working people that are contributing vitally to the US economy. Trump sending troops into a US city that even local law enforcement didn't ask for. 1/

Days like today can feel bleak. Join us on Saturday, in Manhattan, Topeka, or any of the other 1800 locations across the country, to experience fellowship, community, and hope as we unite to stand up for democracy. Find your local options at nokings.org #NoKings #MHK

Thank god - this is a big win for voting. One battle in an ongoing war, but hopeful.

Democracy Docket@democracydocket.com

UPDATE: Court filings reveal that the DOJ will not appeal a judge’s order blocking part of Trump’s election order that imposed a documentary proof of citizenship requirement when registering to vote — a win for voters. Litigation is ongoing. Background: www.democracydocket.com/news-alerts/...

Rep Eric Swalwell walked out in *shock*—and who could blame him? Every single GOP member on the House Judiciary Committee just voted to let Trump “deport” American citizens. This is illegal, authoritarian, and unforgivable 🤬 Time to call, write, & protest before the full House votes.

I was just thinking that when Dems have control someday they should pass a strong bill asserting that the judiciary at every level is fully independent and then I remembered that we have that bill and it's The Constitution

This is real money, pain that will be felt deep in the red states. Elections have consequences 🤷‍♀️

China has returned two Boeing jets, each valued at $55 million. With $69 million in tariffs applied, the cost per plane increased to $124 million. Orders for an additional 130 jets have been indefinitely suspended.

Raskin: We've got a guy who wants to act like a mob boss and use all of the resources of the taxpayers, all of the resources of the government in order to coerce people into doing his will

Everyone can be a hero in this moment, but especially people in power. Get loud!!

Sean Casten@seancasten.bsky.social

Courage is contagious. So is fear. All public figures right now - elected or otherwise - have a choice about which contagion we are going to spread. If we put democracy first, we choose the former. If we put our personal self-interest first, we choose the latter. /fin

"Home grown" means US citizens.

Marisa Kabas@marisakabas.bsky.social

Holy shit. Video posted by President Bukele’s team on X shows the moments before his press conference with Trump in which Trump tells him: “We want to do homegrown criminals next. You gotta build about five more places.” (h/t @titonka.bsky.social @michelekelemen.bsky.social)

Get ready

WIRED@wired.com

Donald Trump has vowed to deport millions and jail his enemies. To carry out that agenda, his administration will exploit America’s digital surveillance machine. From protesters to travelers being detained, it seems like a good time to reshare this guide:

This week's topic when you call your Senators: vote NO on the "Save Act".

Olympia Indivisible ❌👑@olyindivisible.bsky.social

🚨 The SAVE Act is a dangerous attack on voting rights—requiring in-person proof of citizenship to register or update info. It could disenfranchise millions, especially rural, low-income, and working-class Americans. Congress votes soon. We must speak out! #ProtectTheVote #StopSAVEAct

Dems creating a way to counter the false narratives coming from the WH/admin. TLDR: Liars lie, here's what really happened.

Great topic to bring up next time you call your Senators. Bi-partisan? Checks and balances? Sounds old school ...

Republicans Against Trumpism@rpsagainsttrump.bsky.social

BREAKING: Senators Chuck Grassley (R) and Maria Cantwell (D) introduced a bipartisan bill to reassert Congress’s authority over tariffs. It requires the president to notify Congress within 48 hours of imposing new tariffs, which would expire unless Congress approves them within 60 days.
