Rather than political parties we focus on shared VALUES.
We believe in Truth, Science, Inclusion, Kindness, Education, the Constitution, and the Environment.
This demands our active participation as citizens as never before.

Our so-called “representative” is again unavailable to his constituents. So we shall proceed without him AGAIN.

Last night's "midnight ride" was performed by the seven remaining SCOTUS members who still support constitutional government, by filing at 1:30 am a ruling against further deportations w/o hearings.

Last night was the 250th anniversary of Paul Revere's midnight ride to warn the Minutemen of approaching British troops.
I want to take a moment to share an excerpt from the Declaration of Independence's grievances against King George III.
Remind you of anyone?

Sadly and infuriatingly true. Promising to defend Ukraine if they gave up their nuclear weapons only to turn away when rssia invades. Despicable. And turning away from healthcare for first responders too. Anyone in Congress who ever voted against either should removed. Physically if necessary.
What's the difference between Ukraine and The US?
When terrorists destroyed the Twin Towers and America asked for help from NATO Ukrainians, who we blocked from NATO sent troops to defend us
When terrorists destroy buildings in Ukraine America votes for the terrorists in the UN and blocks defense

Nur wenn ISIS so etwas tut, dann wird es nicht zu Verhandlungen eingeladen. Dann wirft man Bomben auf sie.
Aber die 🍊💩 in MAGAstan ist Freund vom Abschaum im Kreml und wird auch dafür Zelenskyj und der Ukraine die Schuld geben.
Und was wird Europa tun? Weiter labbern und endlose Konferenzen? 🤨

Resisters, at every town hall that your congress members refuse to attend should pick someone there to conduct a vote. “By a show of hands, should we replace ‘said reps’?” This will allow the voters to show the world that Americans want this coup to STOP!

My congressman,Sam Graves, hasn’t had a townhall since 2012.
We are having them in his absence.

Dr Peter Marks, "Vaccines have been studied very extensively for being potentially associated with autism"

TODAY WE MOBILIZED OVER 3 MILLION PEOPLE ACROSS THE NATION!!!
This movement has entered the next chapter: the people will mobilize again, and again, until we make a difference.
It only takes 3.5% of the population in a sustained resistance in order to make a difference.

We’re building a #PeoplesMovement.
Today, over 3 million people across the country stood up to say HANDS OFF our democracy.
And history shows that when just 3.5% of the population engages in sustained, peaceful resistance—transformative change is inevitable.

Trump while surveying hurricane recovery in NC today: "I'll also be signing an executive order to begin the process of fundamentally reforming and overhauling FEMA or maybe getting rid of FEMA..I’d rather see the states take care of their own problems.”

Hello, Marco Rubio? Remember your grandfather here illegally, but was allowed to stay and then became legal? Are you helping here? Why not? Is empathy and gratiousness limited to people you know?
45 years ago, Jose Francisco Garcia Rodriguez fled Cuba on a ship provided by the US for people seeking refuge from the Cuban government.
While on his way to work, the 73-year-old grandfather was picked up by ICE agents near his home in Lafayette, LA. He’s being held in an ICE processing center.
