We need 3.5% of the population to strike. That's 11+ million people coordinated in mass non-cooperation to effect the strength of the regime.

Please, pledge today!

Is this true? Four more countries have joined the fight in as many days!

America, we've got this! Look at everyone who's got our back! 3.5% is all we need!

Stand Up, be counted. See you out there Saturday, Oct 18!

I seem unique in having good customer service experiences with Sticker Mule, but I learned they are MAGA. ❌👑

Working Together! @balancingfrogs.bsky.social · 3d

I supported Sticker Mule for 5 years. Then I learned their founder is MAGA.

My first rally, despite lack of advertising, was smashing! It was counter to a Turning Point USA rally.

The message, End Political Violence, remembering Kirk & Floyd worked!

We had 13 folks on 3 corners, including Steve on banjo!

No MAGA hecklers, no disruptors, lots of support from motorists! 1/

Say "No" to violence.

Let's end political violence!

Join our neighbors on Tues, Oct 14, 5-6pm, 4corners Sequim.

I've been reading the brief issued by MA US District Court Judge William G Young on the 1st Amendment. It's inspiring.

However it doesn't apply to the street fight exposed here by @kenharbaugh.bsky.social

Rally against political violence.

There's individual and small group non-cooperation. There's collective non-cooperation. Then there's organized mass non-cooperation.

Mass non-cooperation of 3.5% of the population can affect change. That's ~6.5 million.

Sign up to stand together in solidarity. Sign up here.

According to the Worst "President" Ever,
Portland is “burning to the ground.”

The reality feels a lot different.
But how can you be sure?
A new website, isportlandburning.com
answers the question.

How?
Live cameras of the city,
fact-checked claims &
a live map of fire incidents in the city.

Is Portland Burning?

No. See real-time Portland cameras, PulsePoint incidents, and sourced fact checks.

Americans are not idiots, per say. But we are divided and underestimating what's happening. A general strike is exactly what's needed. In addition to large scale, coordinated boycotts. Let's rise up together and unite!

To close a Wells Fargo A/C, you must have a zero balance and no pending transactions. You can call customer service at 1-800-869-3557, visit a branch with valid ID, or by mail a completed Account Closure Request form if you are outside the U.S. Wells Fargo does not allow account closures online.

The building is in a 27 million dollar foreclosure filed by Wells Fargo. The next day, Wells Fargo filed an emergency motion for receivership. The fascist regime kindly emptied the building for donor Wells Fargo.

If @govpritzker.illinois.gov & @governor.ca.gov leave the National Gov Association for being silent as the Trump admin unleashes on Chicago, Portland @tinakotek.bsky.social @governorferguson.bsky.social @governorwalz.mn.gov @governor.ny.gov and other Dem gov should also do the same in solidarity.

Pritzker is also furious: “Should National Governors Association leadership choose to remain silent, Illinois will have no choice but to withdraw from the organization.”
