Hell no, it's not over We still have rights. Time to use them.

If we were living under fascism right now, the words I’m writing would be a death sentence.

"The day after Thanksgiving is the start of the holiday shopping season, and like their predecessors of a century ago, reformers are focusing on consumers’ power to push back on the policies of the Trump administration, launching a campaign they call “We Ain’t Buying It,” writes HCR.

#Boycott

We urge media organizations to take a stronger stance against the bullying of their women journalists.

These brave reporters deserve unwavering support.

Their pursuit of truth strengthens our trust in media that champion them.

There are so many rights being transgressed right now, but this is the essence: the disenfranchisement of millions, especially women and people of color. Call and show up.

Picture of Joe Biden and Kirsten Gillibrand, who is pushing him to adopt the ERA.

Joe Biden should 100% do this. Women deserve codified equal rights, esp on eve of whatever Trump will do to us. And it would ease the sting of how he glass cliffed Kamala Harris.
