The far right didn’t wait for the presidency—they made plans at every level. School boards. County commissions. Every rung of power.
If we want to build a future that reflects all of us, we have to be just as intentional.
How do we do that ? Tell me in the replies.

I went to get my Real ID in PA. My marriage certificate was not official, so I head to the courthouse, get my certified license, and head back. 1- the DMV staff were wonderful & 2- fuck the patriarchy, men don't run all over the county to scavenge for key pieces of their documented identity.

The Trump administration is trying to put everyone on patrol—serving and protecting racism. Americans are being ordered to report on their peers’ antiracist activities. This takes a page out of an old racist playbook.

Everyone needs to know this
It's critical for everyone to remember what an Executive Order is. It is the President communicating orders to members of the executive branch. Policies to pursue, actions to take, etc. They are not laws. They are not close to being laws. They are formalized memos to employees. That's all.

Dismantling the Department of Education has nothing to do with improving outcomes for our kids, it’s simply about taking away resources from our public schools.

Coming out of a bit of a news break whilst in L.A. and this is quite the hard re-entry: the president of Ukraine being lectured like a child by the U.S. president and vice president who want to steal his natural resources and hand chunks of his country to Putin. I have never been so embarrassed.
