This seems important...
OMB director Russ Vought has officially begun carrying out his section of Project 2025.
Technical thread to follow, but it’s really important - this is a major path through which the Trump administration will illegally impound funding, refusing to carry out some of our spending laws.

People around the country are asking Senate Dems to fight back. But today, 22 Senate Dems voted for yet another Trump nominee (Collins for VA). If yours voted the right way, thank them. If they voted the wrong way, do what you can to let your entire community know and express disapproval.

Yes. All of this.
Grocery prices aren’t going down. But no one really voted for that. They voted for the white supremacy. They voted to push back against the hard won progress we’ve made to get closer to a multiracial democracy. I know this because the Trump supporters are emboldened now. 1/

Not everyone can fight Trumpism and Trumpists directly. But remember this: kindness, decency, and fidelity to American values are defiance in the face of Trumpism.
So be kind, decent, and faithful, particularly to the many kinds of people despised and attacked by Trumpists. That’s revolutionary./1
