What are we even doing?

It is pretty simple.

If any of us have food while others are hungry, we have a duty and obligation to feed them.

Political disasters require campaign finance reform.

Start with No Kings Saturday 10/18! (but be prepared to be arrested for exercising your 1st Amendment rights)

Have someone backing you up — at the protest, or if alone, make sure someone knows where you are.

Power to the People— peacefully, with determination!

MTG is switching sides to keep her seat — as in, oops, policies she supported are hurting her supporters. So she could lose her job. Margie TG, join the millions out of work — but MTG has a cushion, while average working Americans do not have a soft landing.

And while we waste time debating MTG’s sanity, RELEASE THE EPSTEIN FILES now Now NOW!

My senators and representatives are republicans and are brainwashed. Contact gave me negative results.

Time To Organize Against Cheeto and His Nazi Allies

The upcoming Oct 18 No Kings protest is a rallying point around which we can consolidate our voices in dissent of what Cheeto and his Nazi party are trying to do to our government

But as important is to develop a long term strategy for our movement As Marc Elias writes in Democracy Docket(https://bit.ly/4n0Qj1J) there needs to be a long range plan that requires organizing around a set of strategies that ensure the takedown of this radical right wing fascist movement that we have come to know as MAGA which by the way has been in the works for at least 2 decades This is not just about 2026 but there and beyond 2028, 2030, 2032 Apathy doesn’t win

As Elias points out we need to organize for the long term around the protection of voting rights, supporting each other with conviction and energy, and being proactive not reactive So much of what is termed journalism is merely a reporting of what has happened in the day While that’s valuable we need to go on the offensive with a plan to attack MAGA Sadly the DNC is woefully behind the power curve and it’s up to all of us to show up WE the People show up and lead the way but that’s how it should always be
