We all need to look for similar actions across the US.

Trump picked this fight. And make no mistake, it’s a national fight. Democrats could’ve turned a blind eye, or fight back.
They chose to fight back, and I’m here for it.
Thanks in advance, Virginia.

Addiction isn’t a moral judgment — it’s a security clearance nightmare.
If you can’t master your own demons, you have no business running the FBI or the Pentagon.
Kash Patel and Pete Hegseth are liabilities, not leaders. Suspend them and investigate. Immediately.
Tell Congress: Stop Trump’s Illegal Plan to Destroy the US Forest Service!!
"We stand by our reporting on Kash Patel, and we will vigorously defend The Atlantic and our journalists against this meritless lawsuit." - The Atlantic
The Atlantic: Kash Patel is a paranoid drunk
Kash: Imma sue you for $250 million
The Atlantic: Let’s dance, Googly Eyes
And all three really easy to boycott.
Amazon, which saved $4B in taxes under Trump's Big Ugly Bill, has cut 30,000 jobs since last October.
Verizon, which saved $2B, plans to cut 15,000 jobs this year.
Meta, which saved $3B, plans to lay off 20% or more of its workforce.
Trickle-down economics is a cruel joke.
Trump prison camp federal court ruling excoriates Trump Admin for "clear failure" to follow the law "in purchasing a large warehouse in Williamsport MD built to hold cargo and seeking to quickly convert it into a detention facility to house human beings..."

1. As Jared Kushner heads to Pakistan to represent the United States in critical talks with Iran, the media is ignoring a historic corruption scandal.
Kushner is serving in this role while on the payroll of the Saudi government.
Let's look at the data.

You guys know the story of why President Pedo keeps calling the Iran WAR an "excursion" right?
While he was doing everything he could to NOT call it a "war," someone told him to call it an incursion.
But shit for brains went with "excursion."
The president is an abject idiot.
Sorry Schultzy.
Well this is interesting: New study from Denmark shows that Tylenol is not linked to autism
Hope that everyone in the 🍊🤡 administration reads this!!!

Actor-author George Takei turns 89 today...
Takei brought enjoyment to so many thru his performances in Perry Mason, Black Sheep Squadron, the iconic Star Trek TOS/movies...
An American patriot, he & his family endured racially motivated internment camps of the 1940s...
Live longer, Mr. Takei!
SEN. @ossoff.senate.gov : “The faithless president depicts himself as Christ while he plunges the nation into wars of choice… Remember — While you pay more for everything, the First Family’s wealth is growing by billions. Because they’re crooks, and everybody knows it.”
Screenshot of a Substack note by account 'JoJoFromJerz' that says: 'In a sane administration, the FBI Director doesn’t go on the morning news to prove he’s not a drunk, the Defense Secretary doesn’t quote Tarantino to prove he’s a man of God, and the President doesn’t take multiple cognitive exams to prove he’s not insane.'
None of this is normal.
Today's winner of the Internet. Congratulations!
"Secretary Kennedy’s unlawful declaration harmed children,” the Judge wrote.
“This case highlights a leader’s unserious regard for the rule of law...
“Unserious leaders are unsafe."

Big shoutout to Kelty this week. They’re donating 5% of every purchase to the Conservation Alliance in support of saving the US Forest Service. Kelty is one of the four companies that actually founded the Conservation Alliance back in 1989, alongside Patagonia, REI, and The North Face.
how ridiculous for Tampa Bay Lightning fans to chant "USA, USA" last night against Montreal Canadians? Montreal has more USA born players than Tampa, and Tampa has more than half its team from Canada.
This is a snapshot of the failure of MSM and the concomitant ignorance within the American electorate about what is happening in and to their country.
As Trump's war on Iran continues, reminder that his own son-in-law Jared Kushner — who is leading negotiations with Iran — stands to profit from lucrative contracts with its regional rivals.
War gives dictators like Trump (and his family) more power and more wealth.

Palantir is calling for universal military service for all Americans.
Read the piece. Then read it again.
Then ask yourself one question.
When was the last time a Cabinet secretary survived this many leaks from inside his own administration?
I'll wait.
well... THAT's pretty eye opening, actually, Mike, to just say it out loud like that.
Did that sound different in your head?
Alright Virginia tomorrow April 21st is the day we meet the moment and #VoteYESVirginia The arc of the moral universe is long, but it bends toward justice, we have to help bend it. Trump started this gerrymandering fight and tomorrow we will finish it, so make sure you vote.🗳️🗳️
#OnThisDay in 1999 two angry white kids perpetrated the Columbine HS massacre, which occurred at this exact moment [ie, time of post], murdering 13 people. In the wake of the massacre, agenda-driven dialogue veered away from guns to video games. We still don't care about dead kids more than guns.
This illustrates the need for broad and comprehensive reforms with money in politics. We need an international “No Dictators Day” before he steps up his attack on the nation he was supposed to govern, not humiliate. 😱🤬
This man is our nation’s enemy. He must be impeached. The world is watching.. 🤺🇺🇸
