Today we watch across the country to see if we hit a number that is so big with people on the streets and protesting that we go past the 3.5% (of the population) number. That number signals historically what it takes to stand up and make change for a TRUE democracy, #bigtent style.

Going to a #NoKings rally today? Good but let’s be careful and consider surveillance still.

All rallies are important but let’s get ready to do it every day and in front of law makers because this people power changes the discourse- we’ve seen it in action when we passed the Repro Privacy Act.

Senators Reed and Whitehouse support NDAA that targets transgender rights and allows Trump unlimited domestic troop deployment

"The NDAA vote provides insight into how far most congressional Democrats are willing to go in opposing Trump’s culture war fascism and use of troops on domestic soil..."

CNN: “An older couple making $85K/year will see their yearly insurance premiums jump from $7K to $25,000 — 30% of their income.” 😳#TrumpShutdown #TrumpHealthCareTax

This is what Dems are drawing attention to and want fixed. Now, not later.

If there is anything we learned from the last 9 months, it’s that real change begins in our towns, cities and schools. We encourage you to familiarize yourself with candidates that not only support bodily freedom, but also take their roles seriously against all the challenges we currently face.

RI's Governor McKee is poised to nominate an apparently lifelong homophobe & misogynist to a lifetime judgeship. Michael McCaffrey opposes bodily freedom and for over 30 yrs, documented in the legislature. Only chance is you temanding your state senator vote no. RI is at risk and few are watching.

Florida and Texas made a quiet move that could have huge implications nationwide: They asked to join a lawsuit against the FDA seeking to drastically roll back access to the abortion drug mifepristone.

But unlike the states before them, they seek to rescind the drug's approval. Me in @slate.com:

Forests are not battlegrounds for survival of the fittest, but massive cooperative networks of different species. Humans have interconnected nervous systems, but modernity demands the fiction of individuality. Without that, we might descend into cooperation and collaboration. Like the forests...

Hannah Arendt is the finest chronicler of totalitarianism in modern history. Her momentus books are still worth the effort, but that isn't current fashion. Her simpler magazine series on the murderous Nazi Eichmann, .."the banality of evil" details how mediocre bureaucrats facilitate mass murder.

Marc Elias @marcelias.bsky.social · Aug 24

“Totalitarianism in power invariably replaces all first-rate talents, regardless of their sympathies, with those crackpots and fools whose lack of intelligence and creativity is still the best guarantee of their loyalty.” ― Hannah Arendt, The Origins of Totalitarianism

Western RI Towns did as well. School committees even in 'blue' towns in RI now have red hat hate members. Join us at one of those meetings soon and see for yourself. Alternatively, get the dope from @steveahlquist.bsky.social. While everyone is distracted the national scene...RI slips right...

Somehow in my focus on RI, I had never realized all the Massachusetts town on our northeastern border went for Trump in 2024.

Fall River, Westport, Swansea, Rehobeth, Somerset… a red wave right on our blue border.
