Be on the safe side, vote your ballot as soon as you get it!! Trump is doing everything he can to rig another election.

Just thinking about all the extra hassle and security attendees will face on Sunday just so that Trump can be massively booed on the big screen then fall asleep during the match. www.theguardian.com/football/202...

When Bill Kristol and Indivisible are making the same argument, maybe it's time for the Democrats to pay heed.

I took action with Indivisible. Will you join me? Use this link to sign up: www.mobilize.us/indivisible/...

A proposed rule fueled by Trump’s conspiracy theories would require the USPS to keep a list of voters it believes should be allowed to vote by mail—and give them the power to hold those ballots hostage. Urge them to say NO and help protect voting by mail: act.standupamerica.com/letters/cte-...

It's been decades since I lived in Montgomery AL, but if I were there tomorrow, I would be on the capital grounds at 1pm supporting the rights of all Americans to have real voting power and demanding the halt to redistricting that disenfranchises black and minority voters.

This news about Mayor Mamdani balanced budget plan is inspiring and demonstrates that balancing a budget can be done while still taking care of people. substack.com/@jesscraven1...

Stories of record-breaking farm foreclosures and $4.50 gasoline are side-by-side with the news of a Republican proposal to spend $1 billion on a ballroom. This is the "Let them eat cake" moment. Connecting the dots earlier is the difference between the Progressive Era and the French Revolution

No! DC press insiders schmoozing with an authoritarian president had better not be a ritual that defines our democracy! www.cnn.com/2026/04/27/p...

We need a motion under the War Powers Resolution to end the President's reckless war against Iran! We need you to fight for Congress' legitimate power to constrain this illegal behavior! #DemsGrowASpine #CallYourSenator #PGAS app.sosha.ai/s/q6gR7!

@shaheen.senate.gov, we need a motion under the War Powers Resolution to end the President's reckless war against Iran! We need you to fight for Congress' legitimate power to constrain this illegal behavior! #DemsGrowASpine #CallYourSenator #PGAS app.sosha.ai/s/q6gR7C60

Completely agree! It is time to bring a motion for the War Powers resolution to the floor!

patiently explaining to national political reporters that the people who organize No Kings are also doing the daily advocacy, voter registration, mutual aid, and immigrant defense, and that just because the cameras show up for the big crowd does not mean that work did not exist before and after

Tell Congress: No War with Iran act.indivisible.org/sign/no-iran...

The ICE surge in Minnesota isn’t over — it just moved outside of the Metro. ICE agents are still terrorizing innocent people in the suburbs. They’re targeting bus stops and hospitals and parks and being more deceptive than ever. This isn’t over until ICE is out of the ENTIRE state.

Kristi Noem: "When it gets to Election Day, we've been proactive to make sure we have the right people voting, electing the right leaders to lead this country."

Putin pioneered this. No opposition is legitimate. Regular, decent, “ordinary” people cannot possibly be against us because only we represent “the real people.” Tell-tale sign of authoritarianism.

"They say they're coming to save us from some evil? They're talking about our neighbors who take care of us ... Alex was murdered while he was helping. Mr Rogers said look for the helpers, & right now the helpers have a target on our forehead ... Mr Rogers would be here right now too, so I'm here."

Alex Pretti was a colleague at the VA. We hired him to recruit for our trial. He became an ICU nurse- I lover working with him. He was a good kind person who lived to help and these fuckers executed him. White. Hot. Rage.

You don’t know your role yet maybe, but we are all finding out just what we have to offer. In Minneapolis, one man knew immediately what he could offer and said “Bring me your clothing”.

Spraying pepper spray directly into the eyes of a detained person who’s already fully subdued

Trump at Davos, shifted between talking about Greenland and Iceland. Does he know that they are not the same? Regardless, the world got an unvarnished display of racist mendacity merging with ignorance and narcissism. Or as the @nytimes.com would say, "Trump delivered some remarks"

Tell Congress to rein in ICE NOW act.indivisible.org/sign/ice-out...

I am trying to wrap my head around the fact that this is a Target store ... in the USA.

NBC News webpage: Apparently acquisition of Greenland has been accepted, the debate is now only about the means.

If one of your resolutions for 2026 is becoming more engaged in your community and doing more to save democracy, now is the time to connect with your local organizers. 👇

Giving Trump whatever he wants but shaking my head so people know I'm not happy about it bsky.app/profile/atru...

Great job, @schumer.senate.gov. You've changed the story from "GOP hurting millions of Americans to please unpopular, failing, delusional despot who's destroying his party" to "Dems are too weak and divided in the face of Trump's strength to take a stand and protect Americans"

#NoKings in Porto PT. Our biggest turnout of expats and Americans on holiday!

If you are in Porto on 18 October, come out and join us in saying no to tyrants! www.mobilize.us/nokings/even...

Hello from Missouri! #NoKingsKickoff

#nokingskickoff It’s 1am in the morning in Porto, but I am here!

No Kings! Rally beginning in Porto Portugal!

It looks like the State Department is going full ‘Clash of Civilizations.” statedept.substack.com/p/the-need-f...

While Trump wastes millions on a military parade in DC, we're mobilizing everywhere else to show that organized people power is stronger than his authoritarian aspirations. app.sosha.ai/s/ENmrezWk If you are in Porto on 14 June, join us on Aliados at 1400.

Walz: If you say you love freedom but you don't believe freedom is for everybody, then the thing you love is not freedom, it is privilege.

@pkrugman.bsky.social asks, "what the hell was the Treasury secretary doing giving a closed-door briefing [to J.P. Morgan Chase] on a significant policy change that hadn’t yet been officially announced?" Excellent Question! paulkrugman.substack.com/p/cronyism-c...

I'll say it again, the tariff system is being put in place by very rich men at the top of the U.S. power system and they'll be fine whatever happens. It's worth keeping that in mind when you see something like this from the president.

Personally, I think it should be front page news for at least a month if a sitting US President is using falsified evidence to try and deny due process to a man who has committed no crime, but that’s just me

The NYT use of the word 'overhaul' is a purposeful editorial choice to gloss over the wanton destruction of American diplomatic capability and expertise. A fire in the employee cafeteria at Foggy Bottom might garner a stronger headline.

@indivisible.org Porto Portugal #handsoff

A strong #Handsoff message from Porto!

Remove trained scholars from the classroom + content from the curriculum and libraries = dumbing down the American military

Living as an expat in Portugal and watching what is going on back in the U.S., it is bit like sitting in a lifeboat and watching the Titanic founder ... and realizing that a cable still connects the two.

They are just disappearing people off the street. Having a hard time thinking about literally anything else.

Rereading Foucault's Discipline&Punish. Foucault's critique of the personal power of the sovereign to punish is exemplified in Trump's approach to the pardons and the DOJ. Taking us back to the 17th Century!
