As someone who has written a little about performance and legislative politics, I am begging people to stop using "performative" pejoratively. Politics *is* performance. All human interaction is performance.
Get this man some donuts and a porta-potty! @booker.senate.gov
Or better yet.. send him a donation: corybooker.com

Fairbanks AK protesting Dan Sullivans $100 a plate fund raiser while refusing to meet with his constituents! Grow a spine Dan and represent ALL Alaskans!
The most common question to the Sen. Dan Sullivan poster at Fairbanks town hall is why he isn’t saying or doing anything to support the rule of law. #alaska
Sen. Dan Sullivan, a no-show at crowded Fairbanks town hall meeting, would hear a litany of complaints about his silence regarding Trump. Speaker after speaker addresses the poster of Sullivan. #alaska
Good ol Lisa has "expressed concern" again. Call and hammer her not to pass the CR that the Senate is voting on this afternoon. sengov.com/alaska/lisa-...
INVITATIONAL TOWN HALL FOR ALASKA SENATOR DAN SULLIVAN We have invited Sen. Sullivan to join us for a public town hall. If he doesn't attend, we plan to host the town hall without him and publicize the concerns and questions that are going unanswered. MONDAY, MARCH 17 6-7:30 P.M. NOEL WIEN LIBRARY AUDITORIUM 1215 Cowles St, Fairbanks, AK 99701 Hosted by Concerned Citizens of Interior Alaska
Alaska’s Senator Dan Sullivan hasn’t answered his phone or listened to concerned Alaskans in months (years?). If he won’t host a town hall, the public will. Where are you, Dan? #akleg #alaska
Understand the assignment?

My latest: "The more often we have experienced true helplessness, the more likely we are to feel powerless in situations where action is possible. And the more we freeze or flail in response to threats, the more deeply ingrained those responses become."
A few thoughts for today
red bunny on mint green background with a call to boycott on feb 28 - buy nothing, use small businesses and remember we have power
remember this can be one day or day one - do what you can!
SANTA CLAUS & FRIENDS RESIST 2-17-25: A gathering of 100+ resisters stood and held handmade signs in front of US Representative Nick Begich's office in Fairbanks, Alaska. The accompanying 2-minute video with audio, with the same group pictured listening to Santa speak, is linked here: https://www.youtube.com/shorts/p06hg75v6Ps
SANTA CLAUS & FRIENDS RESIST!
2-17-25: Fairbanks, Alaska: Santa & friends met with US Rep Nick Begich & let him know that the Trump administration's policies are appalling & have a devastating impact on vulnerable children's health, safety & welfare:

RESIST!
This is just a fraction of the crowd of folks overflowing from Nick Begich's office and into the street last night. Alaskans are pissed off and looking for answers. Our elected officials are going to keep hearing from us until something changes. #AlaskaSky #Alaska #akleg
Nick Begich says he's concerned about Alaskans' jobs (insert very serious concerned face here), and acts like he's going to somehow make it better on a "case by case basis." Surreeeee...
How about having a backbone and actually standing up for Alaskan jobs and families instead? #Alaskasky
I waited 50 minutes to talk with @nickbegich.bsky.social at his office in FBX. After a long back and forth where he asked me how many people *I* think should work for the federal government (??), he said he ultimately thinks what's happening at the federal level will be good for #Alaska. #AlaskaSky
It came to my attention that this address also exists in Anchorage. We'll pass along your (dis)regards!
And by town I do mean Fairbanks
... join on Monday to find out 😃
Nick B is in town. Let's go chat about this hostile government takeover situation.
