Representative @RepCasten wrote a smart and timely multi-post thread about what we must do and believe to have our democracy prevail, and I've put it into an easier to read article. @SeanCasten's insights are heartening and it's well worth reading:

“We will not benefit any longer from the Peace Dividend.”

French President Macron delivered this speech to prepare the continent for war with Russia.

Heartbreaking that my nation has made this happen. It is a shame and failure that may echo through history.

Is your member of Congress hosting a town hall? If yes, great! Have a good time there.

If not, set up an empty chair town hall, and highlight their negligence.

@indivisibleteam has some ideas on how to host an empty chair town hall: https://indivisible.org/muskorus#sticky-15890

"While obeying orders is a cornerstone of military discipline and effectiveness, the primary obligation of service members is not to obey commands, but to obey the law. It is their duty to refuse illegal orders.

All U.S. military members have sworn an oath to protect the Constitution. This oath is not just a verbal commitment — it is a deep moral and legal obligation to the American people."

Wait, the president who got impeached for extorting Ukraine and Zelenskyy tried to…*checks notes*…extort Ukraine and Zelenskyy again?

But, but, but: why would he do that when we did absolutely nothing about it last time excerpt vaguely inconvenience him?
