Urgent Call to Action:

Call (202) 224-3121 NOW and tell your Senators to Save the Affordable (Obama) Care Act and Medicaid.

The Republicans have forced the government to shut down because they refuse to negotiate with the Democrats who are trying to save our Medical Services.

We’re damned if we do, damned if we don’t. If the Government doesn't reopen federal workers and potentially the citizens they serve will face intense hardship. But if the Government reopens millions of Americans will lose their medical services.

Hardships from the shutdown should be recoverable with time. But people will die without their medications or medical care. Think about the children, many who lead happy productive lives because of their life saving medications. Without our insurance, our life expectancy will decrease significantly.

Call your Democratic representatives now and tell them that we support them! Tell them to do whatever they have to do to save our Medical Services!

Call your Republican representatives and tell them to stop kissing their Führer's ass. Demand they restore our Medical Services immediately!

Support the Democrats on this issue. Shame on Democratic Sens. John Fetterman of Pennsylvania and Catherine Cortez Masto of Nevada and Independent Sen. Angus King of Maine supporting the Republicans who refuse to protect our democracy and our human services. Call them and demand they protect our insurance.

*Fight the Oligarchs. They bought and own the evil tRump and his administration from hell.

The oligarchs already get rich hogging the money you earn but now they have found ways to get wealthier by ending our basic human services.

The tRump Administration is defunding and eviscerating our Medical, Science, Emergency, Weather, Care, Research Services and so much more. He is trying to remove protections and even sell our public forests. The Führer is doing nothing to prevent climate change. Say good-by to accurate National Weather Alerts and FEMA disaster relief. Look forward to more of our friends and family developing deadly illnesses and dementia because he's cutting funding for Alzheimer's, Cancer, Vaccines and Infectious Diseases Prevention and Research too.

The Department of Government Efficiency (DOGE) has slashed funding for these Emergency, Medical and Research Services and more.

~ FEMA Disaster Relief

~ Weather Monitoring & Alerts

~ Emergency Preparedness Programs

~ National Institute of Health

~ Center for Disease Control and Prevention

~ U.S. Preventive Services Task Force

~ Women's Health Programs

~ Free Preventive Healthcare screenings

~ Children's Healthy Start Programs

~ Senior Medical Services

~Food Assistance Programs

~ Food Safety Inspection

~ Public Health Warnings

In an effort to make the billionaire oligarchs even richer the tRump wants to privatize all of our schools, insurance companies, add tolls to more highways, bridges, rest stops, veteran services and much more. Imagine no more free education and paying tolls every time we need to go somewhere? They know we can't afford all of that!

Combine privatization of these services with our lost Medicare, Medicaid, & other Health Care Services millions of Americans will get sick or die! Eliminating the old, weak, sick and poor through needless suffering until death without services that our tax money should be paying for means more money for the greedy rich. Privatizing health insurance, prescription drugs and medical care only for those who can afford it means less Americans and more money for the billionaires.

It's going to take ALL of us to bring down the tRump regime and billionaire oligarchs, who own and rule them.

Enough with the Democrats vs Republicans. You must choose between Democracy and Dictatorship, between Good and Evil, between Love and Hate.

I hope you stand up, choose love, and join the resistance!

BLACKOUTS and STRIKES ARE THE BEST WAYS TO BRING DOWN THE BILLIONAIRE OLIGARCHS.

IF GRANNIES CAN BE HEROES THE LEAST YOU CAN DO IS STOP SHOPPING!

Our wise Government leaders are telling us that we the people need to be the ones to organize the Anti-tRump Resistance. The protests, the boycotts, the marches, the strikes, the blackouts are all being organized by true heroic everyday citizens! The last protest I attended was planned by a group of Grandmas!

One Million Rising (on YouTube) is a great free resource to train organizers how to build a movement. The organizers can use that free education to build whatever kind of resistance they want.

The rallies are wonderful but not as effective as Strikes and Blackouts. All of these only work if people are willing to commit to making some sacrifices. Unfortunately, most Americans don't seem to give a damn. It's easy to tell which ones are committed to saving our democracy and which aren't by asking how many new seldom wore clothes/shoes are in their closets, how many beauty products are cluttering their bathrooms, how much money are they spending on unnecessary travel, entertainment and socializing (theaters, streaming services, bars, sport events, concerts, eating out). If we aren't willing to make these small temporary sacrifices now, we may soon have nothing left to fight for.

Führer tRump has begun the beginning stages of genocide in the USA. People are dieing because of him, his ICE Gestapo and his Administration from hell. Unless you want your children and grandchildren to grow up in this hate filled Un-United nation we all must rise, unite and support the resistance in every way possible. Stand Up America - Do Something - Stop Spending Money!

~ Don't Erase Our Children's Future

~ Protect Our Public Schools

~ Protect Our Healthcare

From efforts to dismantle the Department of Education to rollbacks in Medicaid, the Affordable Care Act, SNAP, and disability protections; from the withholding of billions in funding for afterschool and mental health programs to national voucher schemes like the Educational Choice for Children Act (ECCA) which shifts funds from public schools to private profit; our public schools are under attack. This is not just a policy shift. It is a full-scale assault on the idea that every child—no matter their zip code, race, language, ability, or identity—deserves a high-quality public education.

Keep Boycotting! Especially Amazon! Use this list to choose your causes: https://share.google/S6Q0QErXzb5GS21PI

Boycott Amazon's owner, oligarch Jeff Bezos's and his Washington Post and Blue Origin too!

America's Professor, Robert Reich offers proof that Amazon is cheating it's customers! Plus stop shopping from all oligarch owned big corporations that hoard all their profits and underpay their workers! You know, the ones that have businesses in every state, like Walmart, Target, McDonald's, Starbucks and many more.

BLACKOUTS & STRIKES

For those of you criticizing me for supporting the Blackouts and Strike because they hurt small businesses consider this -

"DC doesn’t feel the same as it did even a year ago. One night during my trip, I went back to a restaurant I’d visited last year. Back then, the place was buzzing, so packed that you had to put your name on a waiting list just to get in. This time, I arrived during peak dinner hours, and the dining room was almost empty. I asked the workers what had changed. They told me that ever since Donald Trump ordered the National Guard onto DC streets and increased ICE patrols, business has collapsed. People are scared, and if this keeps up, they don’t know how much longer they can ride this out for.

This is what happens when politicians use military presence and immigration crackdowns to score political points: local businesses collapse, workers lose their jobs, and entire communities are pushed into fear.” ~Carlos Eduardo Espina

GENERAL STRIKE US

Let's make Good Trouble and Strike! FiftyFifty.One has reported that we are winning major battles at the International - Anti-tRump protests! But there are mixed reports on those numbers and we may never know the truth because Führer tRump now controls are news networks. Regardless of the numbers the war against the tRump is far from over. We are still no where near the numbers of persistent Americans resistors we need to end the reign of the Limp Dick Traitor, Führer DonOld tRump, his regime of Musk Rats, Nazi MAGAts, his Battalion of Rich Oligarchs , his ICE Gestapo and his administration from hell.

The 3.5% Rule says that 3.5% of the population (only 11 million in America) must exhibit SUSTAINED RESISTANCE to effectively enact change. The Anti-tRump protests are major wins towards our goal of getting the tRump out of our White House. But the next steps in the Anti-tRump movement must show our commitment to SUSTAINED RESISTANCE.

We must stop The tRump and his administration from hell! The demonic tRump and his billionaire oligarch only care about money. LET'S SHUT THIS FUCKIN’ COUNTRY DOWN!!!

General Strike US supporters are organizing a National Strike. The most powerful strikers are the workers who are employed by the national multi-billionaire companies like Amazon, chain stores and restaurants who have locations in nearly every state across the country, like Amazon, Walmart, McDonald's along with technology and auto, like Tesla, Apple, Meta (Facebook) , Alphabet (Google) workers like these will have the most impact. The rest of us should be boycotting these companies. Keep your money in your own communities and when possible please support small grocery stores, restaurants and businesses instead.

The most important thing Non-Strikers and everyone can do is use your words (verbal or written) to inform everyone about the Strike and the Boycotts. Those that are capable please stop making the greedy billionaire oligarchs even richer. STOP SHOPPING and BUYING from INTERNATIONAL BILLION DOLLAR COMPANIES! Make yourselves richer and buy GROCERIES AND NECESSITIES ONLY until we get the Limp Dick Traitor out the White House and out of our government!!!

General Strike US Supporters - How Non-Strikers can help! https://onemommy.substack.com/p/general-strike-supporters?r=113nff  

Everyone (strikers and supporters) sign up here: GeneralStrikeUS.com

Organizers can/will not write their demands or strike until they have eleven million Americans willing to stop working for the unknown duration of the strike. This strike is for everyone, even for workers without a union. They need organizations, businesses, unemployed workers, retired workers, students, family members, community, etc.- committed to supporting the Strikers during this potentially difficult time. Personally, I believe that if millions of Americans don't show up for work that the billionaire oligarchs will be calling for the immediate resignation of their king - themselves!

To learn more and determine when the time is right to strike, the organizers are asking everyone to sign the General Strike US strike card at GeneralStrikeUS.com. Stand Up America, sign the card and be counted so we can get that true homegrown demented criminal terror out of our lives and get on with the task of rebuilding our democracy and our government. Learn more about how to rebuild visit BernieSanders.com.

Please forward, share or talk about this message with your family, friends, colleagues, even strangers if given the opportunity. Post or repost it on your social media accounts! Substack protesters share this message outside of this political category and get it out to everyone. It's going to take ALL of us to bring down the tRump, the billionaire oligarchs (who hog the money you earn) and the Administration from Hell!

BLACKOUT THE SYSTEM

Time to End this Evil Nightmare.

BLACKOUT THE SYSTEM is a national movement born out of frustration, injustice, and the undeniable truth that the people hold the power - not corrupt governments, not billionaires, not broken systems.

The billionaire oligarchs pay big bucks for campaigns that help elect politicians, who will support the causes that make them richer. They are the ones who elected the tRump and control the government. In an effort to bring down the tRump's administration from hell - we are strategically and peacefully shutting down the U.S. economy - by removing our labor, our spending, our financial support, forcing the system to listen.

This movement launched to remove the billionaires from our government, reclaim power for the people, restore justice, and unite citizens across all races, cultures, and classes.

We are asking all citizens to boycott billionaire businesses and products (the ones that have locations or can be purchased in every state) avoid working and spending as much as possible November 25 - December 2, 2025

SAVE OUR MEDICAL SERVICES

Indivisible.org' founder Ezra Levin is calling for urgent actions (ahead of the October 18 No Kings Day protests) to save our Medical Services! Please read the attached article below and join us.

“Dems are showing a little backbone. Our job is to stiffen it. Our goal is not a shutdown -- it’s building an opposition party that uses its leverage to reduce human harm and slow the march toward authoritarianism. Whether Republicans drive us into a shutdown or not, our success depends on Democrats holding strong rather than simply surrendering again.

Republicans will not change course if they think they can just roll over Dems again. And Dems will not stay strong unless they feel like they have the support to do so. This is a week when your calls, your visits to congressional offices, and your level of vocal support really matter.” - Ezra Levin

Did it really "blow up in his face"? Or are the Republicans doing a great job of placing all the blame on the Democrats? What do "the people" think?
