Sen. Jeff Merkley has been speaking on the Senate floor since 6:20pm last night — protesting Trump and warning that "tyranny has arrived."
"Trump is shredding our Constitution. Is it okay for masked federal agents to arrest people off the street because of their skin color … Not in a free America."

Absolutely right, Erin. And all the impediments are on purpose. Last thing they want is an enlightened citizen... they're harder to exploit.

Your Tax Day reminder that trickle-down economics is a cruel hoax designed to enrich the wealthy and corporations while draining money for the middle class and the poor.
Don't let billionaires fool you into thinking we shouldn't tax the rich.

Little long (12min) but so validating.“It’s easy to get overwhelmed with what they are trying to do. But look also at what they have been stopped from doing, what they have been slowed down from doing, what they are embarrassed over, and what they’ve had to quietly claw back, hoping no one notices.”

What a weird timeline we’re in.

In my quest to re-evaluate my relationship with certain corporations which don’t share my values, today I ditched Audible in favor of @librofm.bsky.social. Same book-a-month plan, similar pricing, but now part of what I spend goes to a local bookshop that I know and appreciate. My ❤️ feels lighter
