You might not see it in the mainstream media, but over 10,000 people protested today at Tesla showrooms across the country, another 10,000+ rallied in support of national parks, and more than 1,000 gathered in Vermont to protest Vance’s visit.

Tyranny requires your fear, your silence, and your compliance.

Democracy requires your courage.

I can’t remember where I read this, but it’s important:

Why is it that when people think about traveling to the past, they worry about doing something small that will drastically change the present, but no one in the present thinks that doing something small today can drastically change the future?

Yes!
I keep saying Dems need to do a daily briefing on Capitol Hill and fill the void, fact check the WH. Hire Pete Buttigeig and give him a staff to do this.

Don’t just say DEI as if it’s a bad word. Spell it out.

Say diversity, which is the lifeblood of American society & culture & innovation.

Say equity, which a just society should pursue.

Say inclusion, because decent people believe in increasing belonging, not isolating people who are different.

Tesla earned $2.3 billion in the United States in 2024.

You'd think it paid a lot in taxes, right?

Well it paid precisely $0 in federal income taxes last year.

You want waste and fraud? Look at what some big corporations and the rich are getting away with.

Congressional delegation outside USAID now: “We are here to shed a light on a crime unfolding before our eyes.”

Senator Andy Kim just went to the USAID building, talked to the security guard there to confirm employees are being barred entry, and then did a press gaggle right there in front to call it out.

This is doing something. This is making an effort on messaging. Other Democratic lawmakers: take notes.

It’s important to know that a lot of productive activity is happening in person and offline, too.

Not all of it can be broadcast online, but we’ve had hundreds of people showing up to our trainings, mobilizations, and more.

Keep going. Tyranny is eroded by a sea of small acts. Everything matters.

Let this be a warning for places in the world, like Germany, and Canada that could move right in upcoming elections: DON’T!!!
The so-called American democracy is now a source of entertainment for the entire world.

It’s national PIE day. 1.23
I love pie. My favorite might still be lemon merengue. I’m very partial to pecan. And I love a good savory pie. How about you? What’s your favorite pie?

After the Musk Sieg Heil followed by him gaslighting us on his own platform, it seems pretty damn obvious NO ONE should be on that app. If you are, consider asking more of the larger “official” accounts to come to Bluesky. Obama is there and not here? Come on?
January 22, 2025 at 7:12 AM
Hello Bluesky! I deactivated my Meta accounts and it’s turned out to be the best thing I could have done. At work this morning and a co-worker was talking about all the arguing she’s doing on FB. Ugh. Not spending my energy doing that this time. Will focus on positive & creative change instead.

Today, my job hurts. I'm a children's book reviewer. Today I'm reading an immigration picture book about the U.S. as a welcoming nation. This is not rare. Books about immigration are stories of optimism, love, and acceptance. But tomorrow, the stories will change. #writingcommunity #booksky #writing
