Hi, BlueSky. It's Hillary.
I've joined up here to help get the word out about an important election in Wisconsin tomorrow, and other ways to defend our democracy against those who think votes can be bought.

Project 2025 was unpopular because of things like the plan for Trump to shut down the CFPB, which helps you get your money back if a bank cheats you.

Why does China get lighter tariffs than Mexico or Canada?
Why is USAID - the agency countering China's global influence - being shut down illegally?
Follow the money. Musk and his SV bros will do anything - even pledging allegiance to socialism - to make $$ in China.

I have news for you - we aren’t taking over Gaza.
But the media and the chattering class will focus on it for a few days and Trump will have succeeded in distracting everyone from the real story - the billionaires seizing government to steal from regular people.

To me, it's simple.
I'm not going to vote for or expedite a single Trump nominee while this constitutional crisis persists and deepens.
That's just a component of real opposition, but it has to be the starting point.
No complicity. Fierce opposition.

9/ You have a network. Sure maybe you're not going to convert a hardened MAGA friend. But many people are feeling impotent and need a push to get involved.
So organize a small group of friends into an "action circle". Make a plan of small actions. Hold each other accountable.

They're prepared to gut health care like Medicare & Medicaid, raise the cost of higher ed, jeopardize countless jobs
And that's all to pay for a costly tax giveaway to the ultra-wealthy & corporations

On the same day that 22 state attorneys general challenged the Trump admin’s attempt to derail lifesaving medical research, a federal judge halted this illegal action. The ruling only applies to those 22 states so the fight will continue. But this is an important victory.
