"And I’ve got to hope that there are many, many more people whose stomachs are quietly turning and whose consciences still whisper at night. If they can find some friends, maybe they can find their power. That’s what it took for me in my life. Just a few friends to give me just a little courage."

"Being your true self is downright heroic. Just opening your mouth in a book club or business lunch takes courage and strength. And tremendous endurance. Swimming against the tide is exhausting. It would be so easy to stop paddling and be carried away.

I believe resistance, however timid and small, is also more consequential there. Courage is contagious."

Holly Berkley Fletcher reports on her recent week in Oklahoma, "one of the reddest of red states." She was impressed by the courage and conviction of people she met there who are resisting Trump. She writes,

"Resisting tyranny feels great here [in DC]. To be honest, it’s pretty easy. In truth, I’ve never felt more energized.

But in Oklahoma? It’s a daily slog."

So yeah, I don't wish the coming #Icepocalypse on anyone, but I think a lot of #RedStates are about to find out what #FAAFO means...

«A #conservative columnist is sounding the alarm that #RedStates face devastating consequences from President #Trump's increasingly unpredictable behavior on the world stage

The fiasco began w/ Trump's middle-of-the-night #SocialMedia tirades demanding #Denmark cede #Greenland, move that led #European troops to flood the territory. European leaders have threatened hundreds of billions in #RetaliatoryTariffs specifically targeting industries in Trump-backing red states»

@drahardja

Interesting that they mainly appear to be located in #TheSouth & in #RedStates.

Is this just a coincidence or are there specific reasons why this is the case?🤔

Red State Workers Could Lose Out on Disability Benefits as Trump Administration Rewrites Eligibility Rules

• No Age Preference: Until now, Social Security disability benefits got easier to qualify for as a person reached 50 and above. The Trump plan would end that.

• New Work World: The administration contends that injured laborers have more access to technology and more nonphysical job options than in the past.

• Red State Blues: Under the plan, millions — particularly in states that voted for Trump — could find it more difficult to qualify for disability benefits in the future."

Trump’s handling of disasters boomerangs on MAGA country. Trump: repeatedly said: he's the pres of #RedStates, excl -looks at #BlueStates as 2nd-class cits. He's conditioned MAGA *cultists thrive on the very idea that blue America constitutes an enemy nation within the US.

He probably thinks: by standing in the way of extending: expanded #ACA subsidies, he’s screwing blue ppl/states/Obama *red areas of the C are getting fleeced by premium hikes/#tariffs.

"I just spoke with Gov Kehoe, of the Great State of Missouri, & told him that I'm approving $2.5M in assistance after severe storms... won 'The Show Me State' 3X... I'm approving $25M to help Alaska recover from major typhoon."

He approved $15M for Nebraska's storm recovery efforts.

Lawsuits will ensue, but Trump's reign of terror will continue until GOP Senators, SCJs, his CAB, DOJ,🚨or... stop him.

There's🚨only💰av for #RedStates.

95% of the poorest counties in America are Republican.

So tell me again about how Democrats are the ones mooching off the system.

@HumToTable If you're a Dem or a left leaning Indie like I am there is no choice, IMO, but to Vote #YesON50 in order to offset the ballot rigging efforts of #Drumpf & his minions in Texas &, even that may not be enough, because there are efforts in other #RedStates to gerrymander their districts to give the #Repubs & unfair advantage in the next election (either 2026 or 2028) depending on how soon it can be done. 😡

The No on 50 people are ridiculous to claim that doing this in CA will take away the right of the voters to choose because I heard no such complaint when Texas did it & the only reason Newsome sponsored the prop to do it here was because of that they did in Texas

So, it's only fair that we doing it on the other side here. 🤷‍♂️
