Investigate Trump-Flynn-Russia connections as well as Trump's conflicts of interest.

Jeff Sessions lied to the Senate on issues relating directly to matters of national security. He didn't clarify his testimony when he had weeks to do so, until reporting came out showing he had lied under oath. He must resign as Attorney General immediately. The top law enforcement officer in the country must be held to a basic standard of ethics.

Here are some estimates, by congressional district, of number of people who would lose coverage if ACA is repealed.

Cant tell if serious. But yeah, needless to say participation in civic life is about more than the annual casting of a vote.

Also

Where your member of congress stands on TrumpCare.

"On March 11, the ACLU is holding a Resistance Training. This event will launch People Power, the ACLU’s new effort to engage grassroots volunteers across the country and take the fight against Donald Trump’s policies not just into the courts, but into the streets. We’re organizing grassroots events in communities across the country to watch the live stream together."

Yep. In. Go.

whole thing is unreal

LOL florida, ****ing ******s

It's crazy how seniors will consistently vote racism over their own self interest. See some of the recent episodes of Trumpcast for some scary research on how Trump's legacy may long outlast him, by decades, through normalizing racism.

^ haven't listened to the mentioned podcast but racism has been normalized for a long time, especially among Trump supporters.

The live online event zikzak keeps mentioning is at 5PM ET today btw, here's the link for anyone who is interested:

In deep-blue NY alone, where there are few R-held House of Reps seats to begin with, this would likely cause the 19th and 22nd to flip back to D, and possibly the 11th.

I've been trolled. The person at the house supposedly hosting the ACLU thing knows nothing about it.

Well that sucks. I'm an audience of one here.

Along with 7100 on youtube.

zOMG, Padma Lakshmi!

Talk about a message that barely makes sense and is way out of context. This is some pretty poor activism.

Resistance Action Items 3/14/2017 (Pi Day)
We need all hands on deck to oppose AHCA. All the other stuff is great too, but we're making opposing AHCA the top priority for now. So try to call your three Reps today and oppose AHCA. Here's a short script:

Important facts to know about AHCA or RepubliCare as I call it:

• 14 million will lose insurance in the first year
• 24 million will lose insurance over eight years
• Premiums will go up 15-20% in the first year alone
• 7 million will lose their employer-sponsored health care
• The tax cut benefit goes almost entirely to millionaires and billionaires
• Medicaid is totally gutted under the new plan, and even people that are covered under Medicaid would be limited in the benefits in they receive. This would CRIPPLE the working poor who are already struggling to stay above water.
• Some of the biggest burdens for RepubliCare fall on older Americans and those just struggling to get by. It's not right to take away their health insurance to finance tax cuts for the rich!
• RepubliCare actually does NOTHING to reduce the costs of health insurance. In fact, it will increase costs which means higher premiums.
