Power of the people
REMINDER: People who claim that protesters are paid are often trying to gaslight the public into dismissing genuine dissent. It’s a common tactic used by those in power to delegitimize grassroots movements and avoid addressing the real issues being raised.
Republicans are in denial that so many people care about our future enough to spend their day fighting for it rather than joining a cult.
Please you idiot Maga supporters, why can't you listen? They don't want us.

Donald Trump has called for MSNBC Host Rachel Maddow to resign due to her critical coverage of the administration. He continues to try and attack the free press - but we won’t let him win.
RETWEET if you stand with @Maddow against Trump!

House Republicans just passed a budget that would kick families off their health care, shut down nursing homes, and force kids to go hungry—all to pass more tax cuts for billionaires that will blow up our national debt.

CHILLING Message from Jewish-American Governor Pritzker:
“I do not invoke the specter of Nazis lightly. I'm watching with a foreboding dread what is happening in our country right now.
“After we’ve discriminated against, deported or disparaged all the immigrants and the gay and lesbian and transgender people, the developmentally disabled, the women and the minorities — once we’ve ostracized our neighbors and betrayed our friends — after that, when the problems we started with are still there staring us in the face – what comes next?”
“All the atrocities of human history lurk in the answer to that question. And if we don’t want to repeat history, then for God’s sake in this moment we better be strong enough to learn from it."
"It took the Nazis one month, three weeks, two days, eight hours and 40 minutes to dismantle a constitutional republic. All I’m saying is when the five-alarm fire starts to burn, every good person better be ready to man a post with a bucket of water if you want to stop it from raging out of control.”

THIS is the fire I want to see from every Dem: “Elon Musk, you may have illegally seized power over financial systems of the Treasury but you don't control money of American people. Congress does that. We don't have a 4th branch of gov called 'Elon Musk.’”

Here’s what Trump does:
1. Creates a crisis that hurts a lot of people
2. Frames the crisis as a good thing
3. The crisis gets really bad
4. Trump then reverses his bad decision and takes credit for ending the crisis he created
5. MAGA eats it up
Every. Single. Time.

To be abundantly clear: we did not change the rigorous standard for becoming a certified air traffic controller. Those claiming otherwise are mistaken or lying.
We did increase funding & training, and grew the ATC workforce after years of declining numbers, including under Trump.

Elon Musk is mounting a blitzkrieg-style administrative coup of the US government, accessing & editing critical systems that manage everything from Social Security payments to private taxpayer info. Join @IndivisibleTeam in DC today to demand a stop to it: mobilize.us/moveon/event/752…

The president can veto or support legislation. He can make recommendations to Congress. But he doesn't have the unilateral right to change laws.
Trump has very little respect for the rule of law & our Constitution. He is moving us toward authoritarianism.
We must stop him.

Courage is when you do something hard, heartbreaking, and painful… and you do it anyway. Love you, Caroline. Always have, always will. #profilesincourage

Mr. President: Instead of stealing Greenland from Denmark, I have a better idea.
In Denmark, everyone is guaranteed health care, college education is free, parents receive 1-year of paid paternity leave & workers don’t make less than $22 an hour.
Let's steal those ideas.

Marshawn Lynch. The Beast Quake.
One of the greatest moments not only in Seahawks history, but one of the greatest runs in NFL history.
Never gets old.
