If you know someone too overwhelmed by the news to engage with the idea of collective action, my little newsletter may be just the thing. Give it a share if you think it may help.
AAAAAAAAAAAHHHHHH
Hillary Clinton is my Roman Empire.
AAAHHHH
I made a little newsletter for overwhelmed or discouraged folks looking to re-engage with democracy without getting pulled under. 3 sentences of bad news. 3 sentences of encouraging news. 3 things they can actually do. 3x a week. Do you know someone who needs a way in? Let's get them on board!
Happy Valentine’s Day to @samstroozas.bsky.social specifically
On a pink background with hearts, white and yellow text reads, "Love Always Wins." Red HRC logo appears.
Your friendly Valentine’s Day reminder that our love is not up for debate. 💕
AAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAHHH
Last week, lawmakers in both the House and Senate renewed their push to pass the SAVE Act, introducing multiple new versions of this awful bill that could prevent more than 21 million Americans from voting. Tell your senators to stop this attack on the freedom to vote:

“There’s no single answer that will solve all our future problems. There’s no magic bullet. Instead there are thousands of answers—at least. You can be one of them if you choose to be.”

Shooting citizens in broad daylight makes for some strange bedfellows, but here we are. Let's keep going, taking inspiration from the good people of Minnesota. 3togetready.com/three-to-get...
We must keep going, doing what little we can. Doing something—anything—counts.
If anyone says our efforts aren’t that effective or impressive, we say eff off and keep going anyway.
When we can do more, we do more, but we always keep going.
🚨 SCHUMER just now: “Senate Democrats will not provide the votes to proceed to the appropriations bill if the DHS funding bill is included.”
You do not need to traumatize yourself to be a better person, a better activist, to better oppose the people and forces engaged in this murderous evil. You just need to know it's happening and take action.
Welp, it's been a week. But courts and juries aren't having it, so let's do like the good people of Minneapolis and KEEP GOING! 3togetready.com/three-to-get...
Jack Smith: "My fear is that we have seen the rule of law function in our country for so long that many of us have come to take it for granted. The rule of law is not self-executing. It depends on our collective commitment to apply it."
Thank you @alsobrooks.senate.gov
Science, privacy, and the line between public service and private enrichment keep taking hits, but religious leaders are stepping up, as are House Democrats. How about you? (I've got some ideas.)

Some very nice people waving at cars, peaceably
Hi there. I went and stood on an overpass today and it turns out that radical left scum are mostly just ladies of a certain age who are organized (like, with Ziploc bags and wagons) and good at showing up.
So don’t be scared to show up yourself.
if i could give one broad direction to people: stop being afraid of doing something. take some initiative. find a group near you. pick up the boxes that need hauling. bring food. take out the trash.
see a need that is unmet? get some friends together and do the thing.
organize your niche.
A good thing to do for democracy today would be…anything. Just do something. 20+ ideas and counting. 3togetready.com/action-libra...

The increasingly common habit of screenshotting the AI summary of a Google search and presenting it as evidence must be nipped in the bud immediately. That is nothing. That is not anything, it is not a thing.
AAAAAAAAAHHHHHHHHH
