Rob Reiner: “Silence in the face of authoritarianism is complicity. Speaking out is a patriotic act. Democracy doesn’t defend itself. It requires participation, vigilance, and courage from ordinary people."

Elizabeth Warren @warren.senate.gov · 03/07/2025
Last night a bunch of Republicans in the House were saying how awful this bill was. Only took a couple hours, some merch, and a few words from Donald Trump, and they’re lining up to rip away health care from 17 MILLION people. I’m sadly not surprised — but I am still outraged.

Everything that’s happened over the past six months has been a response to an imaginary crisis. There is no immigrant invasion. No trade crisis. No scientific or governance crisis. Just people completely high off their own supply trying to fundamentally reorder society. None of this had to happen.

"unprecedented," "evolving situation," "challenging times." The last time my work inbox and meeting schedule were so full of these words was Spring of 2020. But that one was a natural disaster, and this time it's an entirely man-made crisis. It didn't have to be this way. *deep sigh*

Hey everyone, loosely based on postcardstovoters.com it’s my own thing. Use Google maps & find a fed office in a state. Mail them a postcard that says you support them & you’re thinking about them. I do this every night. Use #HoldTheLine for its defense, communication, & lifeline connotations
Postcards addressed to any federal worker are laid out over the table they say. #HoldTheLine.Postcards addressed to any federal worker are laid out over the table they say. #HoldTheLine.

For me, fighting fascism has nothing to do with thinking I’ll win. I don’t fight because there’s an inevitable outcome, I fight because I couldn’t live with myself if I didn’t do something.

I remember another time in history when a minority group was required to register. That's not a chapter of history I want to repeat. apnews.com/article/ille...
apnews.com
Immigration officials say everyone living in the US illegally must register. What does that mean?
Immigration officials are saying that anyone living in the U.S. illegally will soon have to register with the federal government, and those who fail to do so could face fines, imprisonment or both.

This is why you fight these cowards. The moment you stand up to them, they crumble. Homan has nothing. The Fourth Amendment is clear and I am well within my duties to educate people of their rights. He can threaten me with jail and call names all he wants. He’s got nothing else.

I WANT my taxes to help children. I WANT my taxes to feed people. I WANT my taxes to help the elderly afford medicine. The government should not be run like a business. It should be run to provide for the people. That's what taxes are FOR.

I feel like I'm going insane every time I see a media story about DOGE that doesn't also mention the fact that the Government Accountability Office exists and performs the exact function that DOGE pretends to, only in a credibly constitutional, non-partisan, and conflict-of-interest-free manner

Don’t just say DEI as if it’s a bad word. Spell it out. Say diversity, which is the lifeblood of American society & culture & innovation. Say equity, which a just society should pursue. Say inclusion, because decent people believe in increasing belonging, not isolating people who are different.

Elon Musk's reported data breach at the Treasury Dept. is wrong and puts your personal info, including your Social Security numbers, at risk. As we fight to prevent him from having access, I urge each of you to lock down your social security numbers and print out your benefit pages.

When I was a Hill staffer in 2009, a Dem trifecta was trying to pass universal healthcare. In response, Senate GOP released a memo detailing all of the tactics they in the minority could use to delay the effort as much as possible. I'm recirculating that 2009 GOP memo here. Take inspiration from it.
