NEBRASKA CROWD: “TAX THE RICH! TAX THE RICH!”

Trump has ordered DC to remove the Black Lives Matter plaza. They’re demolishing it right now. I can’t help but think about John Lewis; how much it meant to him, and how sad he would be to see it torn up.😔

Also, how is this efficient? Or a good use of tax payer dollars?? Just saying.

It may not be cool or hip in some circles, but we legitimately do need a massive amount of people to run for office.

Flood the school boards, councils, county seats, state legislatures, Congress, etc.

Big changes at the top happen when the ground shifts at the bottom. And that can start now.

President Zelenskyy has been one of the greatest leaders of our time, guiding Ukraine through the darkest period of its recent history, rising up to Russia’s unwarranted aggression, being an inspiration to the Ukrainian people and ensuring that Ukraine’s voice is heard on the world stage.

Big, growing crowd just west of the U.S. Capitol protesting Trump, Musk and DOGE on President’s Day. “Hey Congress, grow a spine,” they shout, gathering for a rally around the reflecting pool.

I just called Costco 425-313-8100 and pressed 0 for the operator. I let them know I’m giving them my money because they support diversity, equity, and inclusion.

The woman who answered was friendly. They’re keeping track of the calls. I know phone calls can be scary but please give it a try.

Blumenthal: "It would be one thing if we had some disinterested, impartial business person -- highly successful -- looking at ways to make our govt more efficient and save money. That's not what's happening here. Elon Musk is doing a power grab & information heist, the biggest in American history"

This is who we are now, I guess. The kind of country that deports DACA recipients who are hardworking teachers. Will they send him to Guantanamo? Who knows? It’s so heartbreaking.💔

Making my phone calls again! I called the offices of @chrismurphyct.bsky.social and Rep. Larson today. The staff was great! I urged them to stop Elon Musk from accessing our SS & tax info.

Please call the U.S Capitol switchboard and get in touch with your elected officials! (202) 224-3121. #elon
