Newsom: We got here because the President is struggling. We got here because the President is one of the most unpopular presidents in U.S. history. We got here because he recognizes that he will lose the election.
America isn’t Russia…yet.
But we’re at a 5–6 on a 1–10 oligarchy scale:
💰 Money dominates politics
📺 Media consolidates
🪖 Loyalty rewarded over truth
Institutions + people still resist.
We must act now—or slide to 7, 8, 9.
Resist this Regime. Reclaim power.
Start every day with this reality:
EVERY HOUSE SEAT and 33 Senate seats are up for election in 2026. THAT must be the focus. Let’s get disciplined.

As more & more people wake up, because they (or someone they love) are directly impacted by what’s happening in the USA, there are two phrases I am finding helpful:
“You don’t have to admit you were wrong.
Just admit that you were lied to.”
“Welcome to the resistance”

Quote of the Day:
"We're all going to die, all of us, what a circus! That alone should make us love each other but it doesn't. We are terrorized and flattened by trivialities, we are eaten up by nothing."

I don't understand how some folks are unable to see that the illegal disappearing of people is a class issue. The wealthy and well-connected get due process. The rest of us don't. This is part of the oligarchy, not a distraction from it.

Chasten and I are relieved that Governor Shapiro and his family are safe. While we wait to learn more, this much is clear: the targeting of a public official and his family - especially a prominent Jewish official on a major Jewish holiday - is unconscionable and has no place in our country.
BREAKING: 36k people showed up in LA for Bernie and AOC’s rally. In the off year.
Americans are pissed — and anyone ignoring that is making a big mistake.
House sparrows go completely silent and disappear from my yard whenever a hawk flies over. They don’t help the hawk.
I wish US voters were as smart as birds.
If the corporations try to pass the buck to me, the consumer, I will boycott their products. I will
find another way to make it work for me and my family.

"To put things into perspective: I had a Canadian passport, lawyers, resources, media attention, friends, family and even politicians advocating for me...Imagine what this system is like for every other person in there"

Hi Lucky, thanks for sharing this awesome view of the march! We haven’t got confirmation yet on crowd size. Is 100,000 confirmed? There were sooooo many people, fired up 🔥🔥🔥 we didn’t want to stop marching
This is amazing! How can the news agencies in the US ignore this now! Claims of "paid protesters" really??? No way with all these people. Well done citizens!! (coming from a Canadian that is so happy to see this kind of action)
Trump & his mob have succeeded in taking control of our country. It will belong to the oligarchs not the people.
At this point, it seems the only solution is a revolution
Sean Duffy: "The truth is, transit across America is dangerous. And these liberals -- liberal mayors -- they want everybody out of cars and into trains but they made the trains unsafe so nobody really wants to ride them ... even big men don't want to ride the subway at those times of night."
I have never seen anything like this in NYC. 5th Ave covered from 42nd St well to the 20s. Nobody prepared for this volume. Volunteers are holding the traffic on all the side streets. No police in sight. #handsoff
Many of you now have BlueSky accounts. If you also have a website or domain name, you're better served using your domain as your handle.
Notice our chapter's handle: @hwany.org
It eliminates the need to be 'verified' which Twitter popularized and now monetized.
Here's how:
"My message to the rest of the Democratic Party is if you are not willing to meet that bar, then step aside for somebody who will. Because we're at a moment right now where we do need people who are willing to fight, willing to show some spine, willing to break through in this media environment."
