News media: For stories about this admin. deploying federal troops in D.C., don't continuously feature photos of Trump, giving him more free publicity & power.
Instead, feature photos of people & everyday life in D.C. Otherwise, you make the people this will impact invisible.
Images tell a story.

Once you see this chart, you will never unsee it.
Republicans may lie about what's in their budget bill but the numbers sure don't.

This is oligarchy. This is obscene.
While 60% live paycheck to paycheck & kids go hungry, Jeff Bezos, worth $230 billion, goes to Venice on his $500 million yacht for a $20 million wedding & spends $5 million on a ring while his real tax rate is just 1.1%.
End this oligarchy.

Sure, let’s dissect the mental and physical acuity of the former president who sought to make lives in America better while minimizing the reality of a deranged arsonist dismantling the country we’ve known and loved. What a failure to meet this moment.

When Trump...
-Holds a private dinner for his crypto coin buyers
-Promotes Teslas on the White House driveway on behalf of a multibillionaire who spent $277M backing him
-Uses state visits to advance his hotel business
It's corruption, plain and simple.

The most important thing you must share today.
Trump is destroying your life savings and ability to make a living for 1 reason: he wants to make us all beggars who bow to him, his donors and his family.
Not sure why @chrismurphyct.bsky.social hasn’t posted this here but can’t be posted enough.
