@maddow.msnbc.com Your documentary on Andrew Young was phenominal. I lived through the civil rights period but I didn't realize some of what you shared. It was nice that Young was able to narrate it himself in his strong voice. I hope you do more films like this on other topics. Excellent work.

The White House is the official residence of the President. It's a national landmark and is on loan to the president during his/her time in office. It is NOT HIS PERSONAL residence. He doesn't get to destroy it. ALL of Congress should be protesting and force him to stop building the ballroom.

WAKE UP AMERICA. If it can happen in Chicago and Portland it can happen anywhere. This is like Germany in the 1930's. Our military is being asked to target law-abiding citizens. Nothing about this is right. CONGRESS - STAND UP & HELP US. SUPREME COURT - RULE AGAINST THIS. SAVE the U.S.A.

Can someone with intelligence and common sense please explain why our military leaders are being called to an in-person meeting here? What's so important? Wouldn't it be smarter, safer and less expensive to use a secure network to have the conversation? Will Congree hold Hegseth accountable?

BOLO - be on the lookout! Coming to a city near you .... or maybe your city ... Men and women who joined the military to defend this country against foreign nations who threatened America and the principles of democracy. Why are they in our cities? Because trump wants to take over. STOP HIM.

@petebuttigieg.bsky.social I have an idea for communicating to the American people telling them the facts of what is going on, what our government is and isn't about, what's in the big budget bill and other things. I'm trying to get someone to reach out to me. This is a legit request. Will you?

speaking-out-now.bsky.social @speaking-out-now.bsky.social · 10/08/2025

It is really hard to understand how America is on the brink of losing our democracy. I know I and many others are fighting to maintain our constitution, our rules of law, the judiciary system, common sense and decency. Congress returns in September - will they stand up or lay down?

speaking-out-now.bsky.social @speaking-out-now.bsky.social · 30/07/2025

Emil Bove -- Really? Why wouldn't the Republicans take the time to listen to what the Democrats wanted to present? Grasley has got to go. So now we have a corrupt judge on the appeals court and as soon as possible trump will put him on the supreme court. WAKE UP America.

I'm looking for answers. What is the Federal Government responsible for providing to the states and to the citizens? Is your answer your opinion? Is your answer documented somewhere and, if so, where? This is for an article I'm writing and would like people's input.

I grew up saying this in school every day. It's been a long time but it feels that the time is right to start again. I pledge Allegiance to the flag of the United States of America and to the Republic for which it stands, one nation under God, indivisible, with Liberty and Justice for all.

What a great display of patriotism on 6-14-25! Every person in America, no matter their status, should appreciate what people did by standing up to our president and showing him and others that democracy is what we believe in. Keep standing up, keep speaking up and democracy will win.

speaking-out-now.bsky.social @speaking-out-now.bsky.social · 14/06/2025

We need to show we've fighting to hold on to our democracy, our constitution, our laws and our freedoms. Everyone go get Red, White & Blue decorations and cover your yard with them. Hang flags, balloons, streamers .. anything that is Red, White & Blue and keep them up. Show you care!

RFK as HHS Secretary - what a joke. This position should be filled by a medical professional. Bill Cassidy, (R-LA), a doctor, questioned him during the senate hearings. Even after expressing concerns about RFK's position on vaccines, HE (and the other republicans) VOTED FOR HIM. What a great job.

Terry Moran is a great reporter and journalist. His reporting over the years has been factual and informative. He kept his cool when Trump tried to walk all over him. We depend on reporters to tell the truth and report the facts. We may not like what they say but we need to hear them speak.

speaking-out-now.bsky.social @speaking-out-now.bsky.social · 11/06/2025

Did you hear what Mike Johnson said? He told Gov. Newsom to do his job! Newsom is doing his job. Trump and Johnson should do their jobs! If they did, we wouldn't be in this mess. And Mr. Speaker of the House, no one should ever use the phrase TAR and FEATHER. That is truly disgusting.

speaking-out-now.bsky.social @speaking-out-now.bsky.social · 11/06/2025

Citizens vote members to Congress to act in the best interests of the country and not one person. Can you really say that the way the president and cabinet is acting is in the best interest of us all? We need you to ACT IN THE BEST INTEREST OF ALL AMERICANS? We have no king or dictator.

speaking-out-now.bsky.social @speaking-out-now.bsky.social · 11/06/2025

To ALL members of Congress and ALL Governors: Please stand up for our democracy. Each of you need to go online and on TV and say that our 3 branches of government, as per the constitution, must be upheld and act as defined. Take a stand. Speak out. We will reward you with our vote.

speaking-out-now.bsky.social @speaking-out-now.bsky.social · 11/06/2025

I am but one citizen and I have but one vote to cast for our government. My vote didn't count but I would respect that IF the current president, his cabinet and congress were not destroying democracy, the rule of law, the structure of our government and the freedoms granted in the constitution.

speaking-out-now.bsky.social @speaking-out-now.bsky.social · 10/06/2025

Whether you like Gov. Newsom or not, his answers about Trump and his actions are spot on. Please listen and share. The truth about what Trump is doing needs to come out and it needs to be stopped. We do not live in a military state. www.youtube.com/watch?v=Q1MR...

The National Guard has been called to CA by djt. The governor didn't ask for them and he is the one who has the right to call them up. Please, please everybody - don't be goaded into violence. Protestors - just sit down and put your signs down. It will show our respect for democracy & be safe.

Can someone please explain to me how and why the Supreme Court gave DOGE the ability to access our social security data? Since when did DOGE become a government agency who needed this information. What is wrong with SCOTUS? Who will protect us when it's used against us? How do I protect myself?

Well today 5/22 is a big day in America's history. It's the day the republicans in Congress stood in favor of the very rich and trashed the remainder of the American citizens with the passing of the budget bill. Our hopes now rest that the 100 persons in the Senate will protect us.

speaking-out-now.bsky.social @speaking-out-now.bsky.social · 20/05/2025

You must read Robert Reich's article on substack called "Stop asking about a Biden cover-up". Once again he tells the truth about how we should be looking and understanding the news about Biden and Trump. It's honest and accurate. Remember folks it was Biden who got us over DJT's first term.

speaking-out-now.bsky.social @speaking-out-now.bsky.social · 01/05/2025

Really? The Senate had a chance to stop tariffs and they didn't. They had a bi-partisan measure to say there was no national emergency for the tariffs and it failed?!?!? How? Congress needs to act to protect the legislative powers they have and protect our economy and country. WAKE-UP!

Do you think that DJT is scared and that is why he is going after ActBlue? What other reason could there be?

I attended a town meeting today for my house district. The representative was a no-show. Numerous people spoke and all points were valid about the president and what the rep wasn't doing. The time has come for republicans to stand up to DJT and work with dems to take back our government.

speaking-out-now.bsky.social @speaking-out-now.bsky.social · 24/04/2025

This country is about: - The constitution - The rule of law - Three branches of government each with responsibilities - Citizens that deserve a government that cares and acts in their best interest. - Citizens who speak up to protect our rights. THE TIME TO SPEAK OUT IS NOW.

Ukraine is a super power. They have fought a war they did nothing to invite; the loss of life is staggering and their cities are in ruin. It appears that DJT has promised but won't be able to deliver an end to the war. I hope others will step in to help Ukraine. This war needs to stop.

speaking-out-now.bsky.social @speaking-out-now.bsky.social · 24/04/2025

Attorneys General from 12 states have filed a lawsuit against Trump to block tariffs. I hope more states will join the lawsuit. Isn't is a shame that Congress isn't doing their job and acting to block Trump. CONGRESS NEEDS TO ACT. Do the job you've been elected to do. Speaker Johnson - ACT NOW.

If you haven't see the president's Easter message please go online and find it. Then share it with everyone you know and ask these two questions: Is this the kind of person we want leading our government? Why aren't the republican members of Congress standing up to him? This is about democracy.

speaking-out-now.bsky.social @speaking-out-now.bsky.social · 20/04/2025

What will it take to get Congress to STAND UP and TAKE BACK THEIR RESPONSIBILITIES? CONGRESS needs to ACT and UNDO what DJT and Musk have done. The executive orders and doge MUST be stopped and repealed. Our government needs to be restored. Write and call the republicans and get them to stand up.

April 18, 1775 was the date of Paul Revere's famous ride. He rode to warn the colonists that the British were coming and the next day the American Revolution started. We fought for freedom and democracy. 250 years later we are again fighting for freedom and democracy. We must continue to fight.

To everyone reading this: Please keep speaking out. Get others to speak out with you. Everyday citizens are speaking out. Reach out to your Representatives and Senators. Get them to listen to reason and decency. We need our leaders to speak out as well. We must fight for our democracy.

The Supreme Court is the ultimate law in this country. The president and congress needs to understand that the majority of people in this country believe in the constitution, the judiciary and democracy. ALL OF CONGRESS need to speak out and enforce the ruling of the Supreme Court re: Garcia.

I am very grateful Governor Shapiro and his family were not hurt. This was an act of pure hate and terror. The fact that it occurred on Passover made it much worse. The faith of the Jewish community is strong. Democracy and religious freedom will continue in this country.

What is wrong with certain members of Congress? Do you not understand what is being done through your lack of action and blindly following the wishes of DJT? You are putting this country at risk. We are at risk of losing our democracy and adherence to our constitution. Citizens please speak out.

Thank you Senator Booker for standing up - all 25 hours - and sharing what every American needed to hear. I don't know of too many people in this country that aren't impacted by what is going on. And now with the tariffs, the entire world is impacted - including the penguins.
