I think we need to start visualizing the Trump Presidency ending, and socialize it. For it is the right thing to do for the country and the American people.
At this point we have to assume that if the Epstein files are released they will - end the Trump Presidency - implicate many other prominent Republicans - destroy the careers of AG Bondi and his other defenders This is beginning to feel like the greatest scandal in American history.

You have to have hope... A brilliant woman and leader. A woman we all should emulate, especially in today's unstable world.
The naturalist Jane Goodall died today at 91. Hope, she argued, is not merely “passive wishful thinking” but a “crucial survival trait.” Revisit a conversation with Goodall, from 2021: nyer.cm/F55JtsS

📍Join us THIS Wednesday, Oct 1st from 5-6 pm on the corner of La Paz and Marguerite in Mission Viejo to protest the Republican Government shutdown outside of Rep. Young Kim's office. Sign up here: www.mobilize.us/canyondems/e...
The consequences of this administration's incompetent decisions are hurting everyday Americans across our nation. (Billionnaires, not so much). Is this what a tiny majority of Americans wanted when they voted?

From Wired a few weeks ago. A lot of the people who I was told for years were the adults in the room are being asked how they want to be remembered, and that answer is very clearly "cowards." www.wired.com/story/uncann...

A brave man doing the right thing. Kirk's followers have values many of us do not believe in, yet it's their right, however repugnant it is to us. Any murder is awful, but all lost to violence don't get the high honor of flags at half-mast. Those who advocate hate should never get this high honor.
He said he did not want to honor a man "who did so much to harm not only the marginalized, but also to degrade the fabric of our body politic."

BRING THE FIGHT TO THEM. NOW, and EVERYTIME.
Senate Democrats: DO NOT FUND the government when the current continuing resolution expires at the end of the month. SHUT IT DOWN unless DC is funded, the troops are withdrawn from our cities, elections are protected, the Epstein files are released in full... SHUT IT DOWN.

We know. What is not happening is getting moderate Republicans to understand the drastic consequences of their failure to do right. That must change. Find the strategies that give them an off-ramp to exit this gross charade that is destroying American democracy.
I hope people realize how absolutely fucked this situation is. This isn’t normal. People are resigning all over the place because the government is mishandling our data, ruining our public health services, and generally making Americans less safe.
"Soft succession"--READ! Where do we go from here as Trump, maga, Project 2025, Christian Nationalists and gazillionnaire elites work to decinstruct America, as Dems hold no legislative authority. A LOT is going on quietly behind the scenes, as we have hoped. Read and stay current.
The ‘soft succession’ of the blue states, is coming. I’m in a red state but while doing my family tree there was a grandfather that left his plow in the field and went to fight for the union. He knew he was on side of right, so do I. #Pinks #Resist cmarmitage.substack.com/p/its-time-f...

The safety of the people of Illinois is always my top priority. There is no emergency that warrants the President of the United States federalizing the Illinois National Guard, deploying the National Guard from other states, or sending active duty military within our own borders.
Facts matter! Repost widely, over and over again. This lie must not sink into our collective consciousness as truth. Repeat this MORE than he repeats his lie. Democracy and fair voting WILL WIN.

We all stand with you. We are finding the brave, the leaders who emerge because they demand their right to speech. They will not be supressed. WE WILL NOT BE SUPPRESSED.
We will not allow city councils, school boards or the administration to suppress our freedom of speech. We stand with @chriswarcraft.bsky.social and all others who dare to speak out.
