Trump's name appears in the Epstein Files how many times? Here are a few examples for some perspective: Harry is mentioned in the 7 Harry Potter books 18,950+ times. The Ring is mentioned in the Lord of the Rings Trilogy 2,270+ times. (1/2)

3.5% can change the world. Movements win when enough people participate in visible, sustained, nonviolent action. Join us for the nationwide No Kings this Saturday, March 28th. ❌👑 Saturday, March 28, 2026, 10 A.M. to 1 P.M. Memorial Drive Greenway, 301 M.L.K. Jr Dr SW, Atlanta, GA 30312

Two times 3.5% of a population changed the world. Here's what it actually looked like. Background is a faded photo of a protesting crowd. On the top is an illustration of a crown with an X through it.

United States Civil Rights Movement: The Civil Rights Movement grew one action at a time. In 1955, more than 50,000 Black residents in Montgomery walked instead of riding the buses for 381 days. In 1960, four students in Greensboro sparked sit ins that spread to more than 70,000 people across the South. By 1963, a quarter million people gathered at the Lincoln Memorial for the March on Washington. Two years later, the marches from Selma to Montgomery drew national attention as millions watched at home. Over the decade, an estimated 10 to 12 million Americans participated in protests, boycotts, sit ins, or marches. That sustained engagement pushed past the 3.5 percent mark and made federal action unavoidable. The movement helped bring the Civil Rights Act of 1964 and the Voting Rights Act of 1965, transforming American democracy. Two black and white photos from the 1950's and 60's Civil Rights Movement.

East Germany (1989): Fall of the Berlin Wall. In East Germany, the revolution grew over time. Every Monday starting September 1989, people in Leipzig gathered for freedom. A few hundred became hundreds of thousands. By October, more than 3 percent of the region was turning out in peaceful marches across multiple cities. That kind of consistent pressure made the system start to crumble. On November 9, during a confused press briefing, Günter Schabowski said new travel rules took effect “immediately.” The announcement wasn’t planned, but the public momentum was ready. Crowds rushed the checkpoints and overwhelmed guards opened the gates. The Berlin Wall fell that night because sustained, peaceful turnout pushed past the 3.5 percent threshold and made it impossible to hold the country closed any longer. Centered on the right is a photo from the fall of the Berlin Wall in 1989 with protestors standing on the wall.

3.5 percent isn’t ALWAYS about millions showing up every time. It means millions show up over time. In different cities. In different waves. With pressure that never fully disappears. Movements win when enough people participate in visible, sustained, nonviolent action.

We are urging YOU to write a letter to The Home Depot leadership. Investors are currently urging The Home Depot to take a closer look at what information the company shares with law enforcement and right now, our voices truly matter. #50501GA #DefrostHomeDepot #IceOut

A letter style graphic stamped example in red. A letter template that reads. To Home Depot Leadership,
My name is [YOUR NAME], and I am a [customer / worker / contractor / community member] who regularly interacts with Home Depot stores in [CITY/STATE]. I am writing because I am deeply concerned about what is happening in and around Home Depot locations and the harm being caused by silence. Home Depot must take a clear and public stand.First, end all data-sharing with law enforcement. Second, strengthen security in ways that protect rights, not violate them. Third, train all employees company-wide on their rights and responsibilities. Finally, Home Depot must publicly show support for the communities it serves. This means affirming opposition to unconstitutional ICE enforcement practices that are harmful to families and communities.I am asking Home Depot to do the right thing. People’s safety depends on it.

Where to send your letter: Online Form: https://corporate.homedepot.com/contact In Person: Take to local Home Depot Store and speak to the manager about getting your letter to Headquarters. E-Mail: Ted Decker, CEO ted_decker@homedepot.com Mail: The Home Depot, Inc. 2455 Paces Ferry Road NW Atlanta, GA 30339

Graphic with Bold orange text that reads “Our Demands”
1. End The Home Depot contract with Flock Safety and require that any The Home Depot data collection contractors not share data with law enforcement without a warrant.
2. Implement new security protocols to prevent unconstitutional entry and protect The Home Depot employees' rights.
Clearly mark “private” employee areas, post signage, and educate staff that law enforcement needs a judicial warrant to access those spaces.
Create a safety plan to protect employees, customers, and day laborers in stores and parking lots from racial profiling, harassment, and ICE-related arrests.
3. Host all-staff training: Ensure all The Home Depot employees in all The Home Depot stores know what their rights are and how to protect themselves when approached by federal agents.
4. Publicize your support: Signal to staff, patrons, and the wider community that The Home Depot is opposed to unconstitutional entry by federal agents and believes that ICE’s current approach to enforcing immigration policy is excessive and harmful to our communities.

Yes, Governor Kemp, Georgia’s resources should be spent helping to bail out our communities through SNAP, early childhood programs, and government worker salaries while congress refuses to come to a CR.

If you do this for SNAP, what about early learning programs? What about TSA agents? What about the military, the National Guard? Where does this end? Said Governor Kemp on why he opposes using state funds to continue SNAP during the shutdown.

50501 Georgia @50501ga.bsky.social · 28/10/2025

Holding families hostage for power? SNAP makes sure no one goes hungry. Change is needed so this never happens again.

Slide 1. SNAP was designed as a safeguard,
a guarantee that no one would go hungry.

Slide 2. How SNAP Funding Works
SNAP runs on a four-step system:
Forward Funding: Congress approves funding in advance.
State Administration: States determine eligibility.
Monthly Distribution: EBT cards are loaded each month.
Federal Reimbursement: The federal government pays states back and cover half of the administrative costs.

Slide 3.
Who Benefits right now
Shutdowns aren’t accidents. They’re sabotage.
Trump demanded cuts to healthcare—then shut it all down when Congress refused.
This isn’t about “waste.” It’s about holding families hostage for power.

Slide 4. What Needs to Change, We the people, can fix this.
Automatic funding renewals
Multi-year SNAP budgets
Emergency reserves
Pay for workers—not shutdowns
No pay for Congress during crises

055

50501 Georgia @50501ga.bsky.social · 27/10/2025

"A friend shared with me her plan to set out some nonperishable food items (ramen, mac & cheese cups, chicken salad crackers, etc.) along with her candy this year." Marissa said, "That way families who could use a few extra food items can discreetly take what they need while trick or treating."

With all the uncertainty around when SNAP benefits will be available again for our neighbors, here’s a great way to help this Halloween.

This small gesture could make a big impact on those in our communities!

If you’re able, please consider adding a few non-perishable food items to your Halloween goodies this year.

Our nation is watching the People’s House crumble, piece by piece. It’s not just the walls we’re losing, it’s the values they once upheld.
