I get daily emails from indivisible.org with cogent analyses, commentary & action plans to FIGHT BACK against the rising tide of MAGA/fascist power.

THIS IS SATURDAY’S ACTION PLAN:

Members of Congress are on recess from March 15-23.

📞 CALL YOUR MEMBERS OF CONGRESS RIGHT NOW AND DEMAND A TOWN HALL.

🔎 FIND A TOWN HALL -- OR REPORT ONE. If you know of a town hall happening, tell Indivisible.

🪑 IF THEY WON’T SHOW UP, START PLANNING YOUR EMPTY CHAIR TOWN HALL. We will call them out. We will invite the press. We will make sure every voter in their district knows exactly what kind of coward they are.

🔷🔷 If you want to fight back, join an organization with a solid record of achievement. #JoinIndivisibleOrg

I don’t think it’s unreasonable for We The People to demand & expect POTUS and Pals to follow all of the laws that duly elected Members of Congress have enacted and funded, and to act within the limits of our Constitution.

Has the Special Employee sworn an oath of any kind to an entity other than his assets, one wonders?

WE DID NOT VOTE TO DISMANTLE THE FUNCTIONS, PROTECTIONS & SERVICES of the Federal Government.

We did not vote for a DICTATOR.

Here’s a thought about getting out local political info using Reddit…

Almost every US city, town & village has a local subreddit (a forum devoted to local news & shitposts). Anyone can read Reddit but you have to be a Reddit subscriber (free) to post.

I just posted local & national protest info on the Sacramento sub and included the link to “30 Lonely…Actions” that has been floating around Fedi (great suggestions).

Reddit’s demographic is NOT exclusively 19 y/o basement dwellers — I see more GenX, Boomers & GenZ — and even the red-hot “politics” sub leans left. IMO, this is a good place to at least provide info for protests, activist organizations & other pending legislation that needs attention.

I’m posting my Reddit post below if you feel inclined to do the same for your area.

Social media is packed with notices of upcoming protests, work stoppages & a general shutdown — all in response to the unconstitutional, illegal & inhumane actions of 47’s administration. We also have critical legislation in the works, as well as more (ludicrous & dangerous) Senate confirmations.

🔹Not everyone can physically join protests and/or participate in other action.
🔺EVERYONE CAN contact their congressional Rep & Senators. 202-224-3121
🔺EVERYONE CAN join and/or support activist groups which are highly organized & leading the way to #RESIST. —->>> indivisible.org & moveon.org

Anyone who’s worked longer than five minutes in any field knows every new boss brings a new broom to sweep out old stuff & make changes; the smarter ones at LEAST understand the rationale for existing systems & know how to manage change.

47 obviously has the right to instigate change BUT we do have legitimate processes by which change is effected. We do have elected Members of Congress who are empowered to debate & vote on changes; Congress represents & acts for 348 million Americans. We also have a Constitution that all elected officials have sworn to uphold.

By circumventing Congress, dismissing appointed oversight officials, bypassing security protocols, AND completely ignoring the Constitution, 47 is clearly operating outside of the law.

Change can be good. Impulsive, extra-legal change putting lives, health, stability & our economy at risk can, and will be, deadly.

(From First visible paragraph of paywalled WSJ) “WASHINGTON—Sen. Brian Schatz (D., Hawaii) said he would place a “blanket hold” on all of President Trump’s State Department nominees until the administration’s attack on the leading U.S. foreign-assistance agency ends, a move that threatens to stall Trump’s ability to get his foreign-policy team in place.”

@Prainbow
If I remember basic civics, CONGRESS authorizes federal agencies and CONGRESS appropriates their funding as part of the national Budget signed into LAW by the president.

NONE of these DOGE measures have been submitted to Congress for approval. Even the DOGE king has not been confirmed or authorized in his position by any authority except the Toddler in Chief.

SPEAK THE HELL UP!
Contact your congressional Rep & Senators TODAY about this ongoing enshittification of our government.
