Call every day! Especially if your legislators are Rs.
Above is the phone number for the U.S. Capitol switchboard where an operator will connect you directly with the office you request. Let your members of Congress know how you feel. It matters.

This outrage is illegal, as it was not approved by Congress. It must be halted immediately.
This is a national emergency:

Republicans came for Social Security in 2005 — we stopped them. They came for the ACA in 2017 — we stopped them.

Now they’ve come for your PRIVATE Social Security and Medicaid payment data to take health care — we WILL stop them again!

THIS! The time has come.
That time arrived a long while ago. The question now is whether Democratic leaders fully understand and will act accordingly.

I have never seen anyone flip as quickly as Robert F. Kennedy did on the question of whether a woman has the right to control her own body.

FAA says a military helicopter collided with the American Airlines passenger jet from Wichita near DCA.

There must be immediate hearings on how the federal government/Department of Defense allowed this to happen and if removal of safety protocols and recent personnel changes led to this incident.

Liberal Democracy, like *any* governmental system, relies on a lack of corruption to be beneficial.

Communism fails because people get greedy.

It's not even so much that he attacked Bishop Budde

It's that this is probably the first time he attended a church service since he was a boy-and really, he only went because he had to

Yet not only does he completely fail to understand the message

He doesn't have the grace to simply let it go

Bishop Budde wrote this oped in 2020 after Trumps visit to the church displaying a bible

“Mr. Trump used sacred symbols to cloak himself in the mantle of spiritual authority, while espousing positions antithetical to the Bible that he held in his hands.”

While the president cloaks himself in spiritual authority, he preaches the antithesis.

If some congressional staffer would like to send me a copy of the House Ethics report on Matt Gaetz, I’ll be more than happy to share it in complete confidence. Just sayin’.

If anyone’s looking for alternatives to GoodReads, I highly recommend StoryGraph. It’s owned by a black woman, and the platform is so much more accessible and easy to use.

A repeat thought, Bluesky, & a Librarian told you this so it must be true 🤣

Audiobooks definitely count as reading (as well as listening). If you've played through an audioook, its perfectly fine to describe that as "I have read [x]"

All other forms of assistive software count as reading too 💙📚
