I need to address this immediately, because I am WAY too Minnesotan to ever claim credit for this. I built a thing to point the fire hose of people's generosity in the right direction. That's it. I am thankful for the piece, because hopefully it means people will donate more money.

Accountability isn’t just coming from courts or ballots anymore. It’s showing up in culture, foreign governments, civil suits, and the sudden collapse of myth. #uspolitics #kakistocracy #authoritarianism #warcrimes open.substack.com/pub/marygedd...

Judgment Is Arriving Sideways

From courtrooms to magazine covers to foreign governments, accountability for Trump is taking unexpected and unavoidable forms.

Yesterday, on a walk through Central Park, I was moved to tears when I heard about the latest murder—Alex Pretti—in MN. Called my reps (5Calls.org) to urge them to vote NO on the spending bill (it funds ICE). Also joined Citizens Impeachment—https://citizensimpeachment.com. Reaction—>Action.

I do not just throw out praise for Senate Dem leadership, but this is good. It’s what we need now - Dems using their leverage where they’ve got it and refusing to budge. Make GOP own this lawless goon squad. No Dem votes for it. Support Dems who are fighting back now regardless of past beefs.

They're murdering white people now. Poets. Nurses. They're publicly executing white people now. They will not stop. Unless we resist. Unless we relentlessly resist. The citizens of Minneapolis are showing us how We can be brave. We must be brave. It's up to us. No one is coming to save us.

Government funding runs out on March 14. Republicans can’t pass a bill alone, so Democrats have real leverage here. We’re calling on Democrats to commit to withholding their votes and insist on an end to the Trump-Musk coup rampaging across the government.

House Democrats Have Leverage—
If They Use It
Republicans Can't Pass a Budget Without Democrats: Any funding bill that passes the Senate must clear the 60-vote filibuster, meaning Senate Republicans will be forced to compromise with Democrats. That bill will not be the full MAGA wishlist-it will be a negotiated deal.
And here's the problem for House Republicans: as soon as the bill looks even remotely reasonable, hardline MAGA extremists will revolt. The House Freedom Caucus will refuse to vote for anything that doesn't include extreme cuts and right-wing poison pills.
That means House Republicans' razor-thin 218-215 majority won't be enough to pass a budget on their own. If just three Republicans defect, the bill dies. Their chaos and dysfunction have already divided them.
Democrats must not bail them out. Republicans will need Democratic votes to pass a budget, and that gives Democrats enormous leverage.
The GOP Civil War is a Gift-Exploit It: The House GOP is eating itself alive. The far-right Freedom Caucus is demanding draconian cuts, while vulnerable Republicans fear the backlash of a shutdown. Demoerats should let them fight and use it to extract real concessions.
The Shutdown Deadline is the GOP's Problem to Solve: Government funding runs out on March 14. If the
GOP can't pass a bill, they own the shutdown. Instead of letting Republicans ram through a terrible deal, Democrats should be demanding a budget that stops MAGA looting and protects working families.
Trump and His Billionaire Buddies Want to Steal the Budget: Trump and his inner circle, led by Russ Vought, are openly planning to override federal spending decisions, funnel cash to their allies, and slash social programs. If the budget doesn't include safeguards-real, meaningful, and enforceable safeguards— they will rob the country blind.

1. Go to your local library and fill out request forms. 2. Show up at your local school board meetings. Sign up to speak. Remind them that access to books that are relevant and relatable INCREASES LITERACY, which is literally the job of schools 3. Show up at library board meetings. Same thing.
