This is not about "left" vs "right" anymore — and it hasn't been for a long time.

The oligarchy feels safer if people split along the old “left” vs.“right” battle lines, so they won’t notice they’re being shafted and won't join together to fight back.
"We fear that if this bill passes, a village in rural Alaska might lose its one-and-only grocery store because of a drastic decline in SNAP dollars. It might also lose its sole health care clinic or hospital because it cannot sustain its services with decreased Medicaid reimbursements."
“The likely impacts from the ‘Big, Beautiful Bill’ are particularly ugly for our home state, Alaska,” write Bryce Edgmon and Cathy Giessel, two state lawmakers. “The bill being rushed through Congress is based on a one-size-fits-all approach that does not reflect these realities on the ground.”

🚨BREAKING: This is EPIC! A group of advocates for America’s Arctic set up a fake auction outside the U.S. Senate offices to demonstrate how RIDICULOUS Trump’s plan to sell off public lands actually is. BRAVO!

Add your name to keep the Arctic Refuge out of the 2025 budget bill! 👇

DHS and ICE are already between $1 and $2 billion over budget and it’s only June. The fiscal year doesn’t end until September 30 and Congress hasn’t approved the extra spending. Where’s the number for the waste, fraud, and abuse hotline? Or did they disconnect it along with 988?

While Trump blusters about "law & order," his regime has dropped or halted nearly 150 investigations into corporate wrongdoing. And Trump himself has pardoned dozens of his supporters, including Jan 6 rioters and other convicted of crimes like money laundering and bribery.

Yesterday, millions of us reasserted the “We” in "We the people."

We gained strength from our solidarity. We celebrated our numbers and our power.

We will be steadfast. We will not cower to a dictator.

We will win.

If your government has to send armed forces to silence people holding signs, the problem isn’t the protest. It’s the regime that fears accountability. Never should a government be threatening its own citizens and never should citizens be shrugging it off as the new normal.

ABC suspended reporter Terry Moran for a now-deleted tweet calling Stephen Miller a “world class hater.” They said it violates their standards. Here’s a thought…maybe your standards should allow calling out white nationalism and hate when you see it.

I don’t think people should engage in violence and vandalism and I don’t think federal agents should provoke people to engage in violence and vandalism. Too many law enforcement officers sworn to protect and serve now look and act like they are in Fallujah.

Tyranny requires constant effort. Oppression is the mask of fear. Authority is brittle. And most importantly: you are never truly alone when standing up to authoritarianism. You have friends everywhere.
