We can impeach Trump if we win back the house and senate. Start talking about voting.
Register in advanced.
If you know someone who doesn’t vote, start showing them exactly what Trump has done, show them how American Citizens are being deported.
Show them how people who came to America on vacation are being deported.
Show them how Trump has been destroying the stock market.
Show them everything you can and remind them that they may not be interested in politics, but politics is interested in them and doesn’t give a damn about consent when it comes to fucking people over.
If you are married and took your spouse’s name, go to the court you got your certificate from and get every last drop of paperwork you can to prove your identity. This also goes for if you are trans, I’m sorry but it’s unfortunately necessary.
You need as much information as possible. It may be exhausting but it’s needed. Get your passport, get your license, get your SSN card. Get as much as possible to prove who you are.
Be prepared.
Make this shit so big Hiroshima will look like a bee sting.
Let’s destroy the Republican Party’s fascist movement before it destroys us.
Republicans use/argue deficts in bad faith.
They give billions to corporations, then cut their taxes, leaving less tax dollars for actual tax payers. The overall ignorance/cruelty is what makes them Republicans.
Tonight House Republicans voted 217 to 215 for a budget that'll take $1 TRILLION dollars from Medicaid, attack food benefits for kids, hurt seniors and vets.
but I don't want to talk about that, I want to talk about these two Democratic members of Congress you've never ever heard of.
Democrats, Congressman Kevin Mullin of California and Congresswoman Brittany Pettersen of Colorado.
Congressman Mullin had knee surgery that didn't go well, two surgeries, a life threatening blood clot and a week long stay in the hospital, and the moment he was discharged from the hospital he got on a five hour flight to DC to vote against the Republicans evil budget, using a walker to get to the floor of the House
Congresswoman Pettersen gave birth to her son Sam, in the picture, exactly one month ago on January 25th. They flew from Colorado to DC after Republicans refused to allow her to vote by proxy after having a baby. Congresswoman Pettersen took Sam onto the floor of the House to vote to protect the Health care of 400,000 Colorado kids.
why talk about this? because so much of the conversion is about telling people there's no one good, no one worthy, no one fighting. I promise you there are people undergoing personal hardship to do the right thing.
Many of them did vote but Republican state attorneys general disqualified the ballots and dropped other from the voting registry. Some estimates have it at over seven million.
a simple reminder
RIGHT NOW: we’re in SpeakerMcCarthy’s office, demanding him to avert a government shutdown and fund climate action we desperately need. @sunrisemvmtnyc
