For inspiration, rent the movie (On Amazon for $5) called The Singing Revolution about how Estonia claimed it's independence from Soviet occupation in 1991. It all began with music, which bonded and unified the Estonians with the love they had for their country. And not a drop of blood was shed. Reminds me of the song We are the World. If only....
Susan, Bezos owns Amazon. I closed my Amazon account in February. I refuse to have anything to do with Amazon. The people in Venice did a beautiful protest against Bezos having his wedding there.
Did the same! Bezos is an A-hole, and I refuse to even give his company a single cent anymore. And, honestly, it has been amazing how much money I saved by not taking the easy route of buying from Amazon. I have switched to buying from small businesses and local area stores exclusively. I not only feel better about my buying power choices but I also am saving money because I am taking the time to actually search for deals that are often a much better value than Amazon.
Boycott the Billionaires - Bezos, Musk, Zuckerberg. Don't buy Tesla products (already pretty effective), boycott Amazon Prime Days or close Amazon Prime accounts altogether (or make multiple purchases on Amazon Prime Day and return them all, then shut down your account), and close Facebook accounts. Hit them where it counts - in their wallets.
Not enough though. Perhaps that needs to be changed if we are to defend ourselves against the brown shirts he will send into our streets at some point.
At least half of them will tell him where he can stuff it. Did you see the way the soldiers sauntered at his self-congratulatory military parade? They ambled, not marched.
Sure there are MAGAnuts in the military, but I'd say there are even more service members who take their oath seriously. For every Michael Flynn there are likely two or three Mark Milley's.
I found this original protest song on YouTube months ago. I think it should be our #1 song with a lot of others from past protests following. :-) https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=eN0Pr9KqjFg
Yes, singing 🎵 “The Joys of Bavaria” 🎶 in 1930’s Germany as they opposed the Nazis would have led to a peaceful retreat by Hitler and his thugs. I wonder why the Ukrainians didn’t whistle a song of national unity and hand out flowers to the invading Russian troops when Putin began his war against them? 🤔
Get real! Putin just bombed relentlessly! Hard to hear anything from the earth shaking noise. And now MAGA morons have the peutred Putin lover in power!💥🏴☠️
I was going to say that. He thought that he would be welcomed. He figured he would "conquer" them within 2 weeks. If ever we needed someone on our side my first choice would be the Ukrainian people. Their spirit and endurance is amazing.
He was welcomed as a liberator - by a really tiny minority of Russian nationalists in the eastern region of Ukraine. The rest of Ukraine said "eat our drones!"
One of the things you can do to send a message is to stop all business with Amazon. Boycotting with our wallets sends a message. Back in April there were several weeks of boycotts of Amazon, Target and Wal-Mart. I've stopped spending money with these businesses because they capitulated to Taco Don.
I was never a fan of Target or Wal-Mart in the first place so they don't miss me spending there. I have found that some things on Amazonm that I can't find elsewhere, often provide the names of other sellers. I generally check them out and find I can order directly from them; thereby, skipping Amazon.
Thank you, Susan. I also like what Valerie Kaur is inspiring in LA, Revolutionary Love. Also faith leaders are coming together in solidarity of non-violent action throughout the nation. Today in San Luis Obispo, CA a group has organized a sit on the lawn at the coouthouse to sing, play music and create signs for protests.
If you want to have weeks worth of nightmares, watch "A Night at the Garden", about the original "America First" movement of the mid-to-late 1930s with the subrosa support of many congressional Republicans and industrial leaders. Its sinister motives were mostly ignored, too, by mainstream media at the time. It took America's entry into WW II to shut it down.
Our most important task is being as vocal as possible about voter suppression & election fraud
I also feel the weather story needs to go viral. Authorities in Texas are flat out blaming the inaccurate forecasting. That's what was happening with tornadoes this past spring. So many died - didn't hear a peep from the administration & barely on the news.
If people are able, please support Marc Elias/Democracy Docket.He has been fighting against voter suppression/election fraud for years and is a Trump 🎯.Elias was the only lawyer brave enough to go on 60 Minutes.
Jennifer, voter suppression has been on my mind quite a bit lately because of the midterms coming up. How do we protect our right to vote? Trump recently said that he is not the Democrats' President. He then went on to say he hates democrats. Garbage in, Garbage out.
Saw that clip of trump on Bluesky last night saying how he hates Democrats. Silly me; thinking the President of the United States should be a President for everyone 🙄.
You're right, Elliemae, he should be for all of America's people. When I heard him say that, my thoughts were, should the Blue and Purple states separate from America and build our own America #1? We'll have the real American States and the Red American states. I don't know if that's possible, but it's a thought.
I saw that someone started a petition to try to get on the ballot for CA to become a country.
I truly don't think that would happen even if enough signatures were gathered; but, I would sign the petition just to see how many Californians would go for the idea.
Inaccurate forecasting is to blame due to the defunding and gutting of NWS and NOAA. And they also want to eliminate FEMA. And with hurricanes season, more tornadoes and increasing extreme weather, we will sadly see more of this. You’re right about the 🤡 ignoring this. He was too busy celebrating the passing of a bill that will end up hurting millions.
He's ignored almost every tragedy. His base probably doesn't even know they're occurring unless they're in or near one of the weather events. Fox News does not discuss anything detrimental. If we can save our elections, we can build back all we have lost - it will take years..but we need the ability to do it.
Agree, Jennifer. We need to get to the midterms. Between tornadoes and the coming hurricanes, the red states will be feeling the brunt of not having accurate forecasts. Maybe they’ll start to realize that voting (or not voting) has consequences.
Absolutely right! Doge cut NOAA n NWS! And American citizens died in tornados, lost most everything they worked for all their lives! And now young children missing in floods.
202 225 3121 or 202 224 3121 will reach any member of congress! Call the kids ass red states!
And a hurricane could hit his new torture chamber in Florida! Where red state congressional creatures should spend several days!
I believe it flooded when they recently had a brief rain storm. Figures, they poured a billion dollars into a losing project. What's new about that? Get rid of helpful programs to fund lousy projects and then have the nerve to brag about them.
1. Absentee ballot fill it out. 2. Make a copy. 3. Seal your ballot put your name on the ballot envelope. 4. Go to the nearest polling place 5. Push it through the ballot bin.
We won’t hear anything g from FFOTUS etal because they are the reason we have and will continue to have inaccurate weather forecasts! Welcome back to the 1930s 😡!
Keep fighting! I hear from Trump supporters laughing about how "No Kings" is a waste of time, that protesting is a waste of time because Trump isn't paying attention. I don't believe it. Trump with his infatuation with crowd sizes, sees who disapproves of him. The fact that the crowd sizes for the No Kings dwarfed his birthday parade speaks volumes. Keep fighting!
Sadly, narcissists love all attention, be it positive or negative. They don't discern. Trump has enough sycophants boosting his ego and telling him what he wants to hear. When you lack empathy for others, you lack all concern for what they think, good or bad. It only reads with him as attention, which he craves. He has no conscience. ❤️🇨🇦
We get discouraged. I wish there was at least ONE big win for us amongst all the bs. Yet, when I see clips of protests, it heartens me and makes me want to create my next protest sign. I saw one a vet had that just said "Stop this Nazi Shit." It was only 4 words, but says it all.
We must keep moving forward. Our truth is so important to the American people. We cannot continue to allow the propaganda to spew without a fight for the truth. I will continue to spread the "Meidas" words and stand with democracy. I am pissed, distressed, sad, and yet, like you, will continue to find ways to inspire and stand with truth.
I really needed to hear that today! I also want to thank your families for supporting you in this because I’m sure it takes up a lot of your time. I appreciate all you are doing.
We also have to be aware of the police state maga is building. The bill allocated over 6T to ICE, FBI, police, secret service, and DOJ. Multiples of what they historically have needed. FBI to monitor us, ICE and police to round up Americans who protest the regime, and DOJ to prosecute us and send us to gulags. This will raise the stakes and the likelihood of violence in our country. The illegal alien deportation program is just a test run.
Agree 💯. I don’t think it will take long to move on from immigrants to any American white black male female young old healthy unhealthy. If you don’t march in line with the regime you will be imprisoned. Or sent to one of the concentration camps. I hope I am overreacting. But with the absurd increase in ICE budget ($3.5k to $45k ?) and the surveillance on every citizen in place am I overreacting?
No Masha. It's exactly where it is headed. Listen people. We are here because no one listened to this JO. HE is not playing games. Not just trump being trump. We are in an authoritarian country now. Without a plan to fix it,because no one wants to see it for what it is.
Order #1 Stop buying stuff you don't need and boycott the big corp players like Amazon, Home Depot (support ICE & DJT), etc. You do have to buy of course so try and buy local from small business if they aren't MAGA. Otherwise just be selective and buy as little as possible. We need to make this economy as bad as possible to prove the tariffs don't work. It is working, so spread the word. Here's a link to a list of companies that dropped their DEI policies as well. I don't patronize them either! https://buildremote.co/companies/ending-dei/
I already do all of that. Been doing it since November. I am asking what to do next. Been boycotting, not spending, been protesting and calling reps. Waiting for next orders.
Hitler gained control with his police. They put the fear of being disappeared into people. That is what they are doing now. As you said, it's with immigrants. Next will be signing up the youth and creating a special force to indoctrinate them young.
No one will even get a hearing or trial. Handcuffs, wagon, plane, camp. If you survive they will rent you out for slave labor, doing your old field or factory or cleaning job. But the private prison gets paid, not you. I think we need to find out where all the detention centers are and start picketing them. 👹
I was disgusted yesterday by the “dear leader” email from the Social Security Administration praising the “Big Beautiful Bill” and blatantly lying that “The new law includes a provision that eliminates federal income taxes on Social Security benefits for most beneficiaries, providing relief to individuals and couples.” And the worst part of the email? It’s government sponsored propaganda payed for by our tax dollars! Fascism is here.
This will be happening more, since that pinhead Elon and DOGE were given access to all our information. They will be sending propaganda emails all the time.
There’s a lot of misinformation about whether the Big Horrible Bill eliminates taxes on SS retirement benefits. Rump says it does, but it doesn’t. There’s a “however”, however: while the Big Horrible Bill does not eliminate taxes on Social Security benefits, it does provide a $6000 deduction for individuals ($12,000 for a married couples) who are older than 65, which is the functional equivalent of reducing taxes on Social Security recipients. Those who delay receiving Social Security, or get less than $6000 in SS benefits, will still get the deduction if they are 65 or older. So, in some ways, the deduction is even better than simply not taxing $6000 of Social Security benefits. Since most people on Social Security get more than $6000 a year, the tax deduction is less favorable than the complete elimination of all taxes on all Social Security retirement benefits.
I should add that SS is already taxed at 50% if your “combined income” (AGI + nontaxable interest income + one-half of your Social Security) is $34,000 or less for single filers ($44,000 or less for Married Filing Jointly). It’s taxed at 85%, not 50%, if your “combined income” is above $34,000 for single filers ($44,000 Married Filing Jointly). It’s not taxed at all if your “combined income” is $25K or less.
Also, this new $6000 deduction is temporary: it’s in effect from the fiscal year 2025 through 2028. It will expire at the end of 2028. (Of course, just through the Rump term!) And it’s phased out for high income earners (individuals earning more than 75K; married couples earning more than $150K).
Correct, but the way it’s written is misleading, and most people not paying attention won’t understand the nuances. Overall, the tone of the email lavishing praise on this “landmark” legislation was infuriating.
Ty Ben. Yesterday was rough, I couldn’t get into celebrating this country’s independence, when Republicans passed a bill the day before to end independence as we know it.😞 But yet we must not stop the resistance. We have to get louder and more persistent. More people are getting tired of the regime, and the movement will grow. Thank you Meidas, for giving us our voice. 🫶👊🏿📣🤜🤛💙🇺🇸🇺🇸🇺🇸🇺🇸🇺🇸🇺🇸🇺🇸🇺🇸 We will make America beautiful again!
For inspiration, rent the movie (On Amazon for $5) called The Singing Revolution about how Estonia claimed it's independence from Soviet occupation in 1991.

Susan, Bezos owns Amazon. I closed my Amazon account in February. I refuse to have anything to do with Amazon. The people in Venice did a beautiful protest against Bezos having his wedding there.
Hi Sylvia, I see that you can also rent it on Apple TV
At least Apple is not complying with Trump.
But don’t forget, Tim Cooke gave him $1 mil.
Did the same! Bezos is an A-hole, and I refuse to even give his company a single cent anymore. And, honestly, it has been amazing how much money I saved by not taking the easy route of buying from Amazon. I have switched to buying from small businesses and local area stores exclusively. I not only feel better about my buying power choices but I also am saving money because I am taking the time to actually search for deals that are often a much better value than Amazon.
I have closed my account as well!
Same here
Boycott the Billionaires - Bezos, Musk, Zuckerberg. Don't buy Tesla products (already pretty effective), boycott Amazon Prime Days or close Amazon Prime accounts altogether (or make multiple purchases on Amazon Prime Day and return them all, then shut down your account), and close Facebook accounts. Hit them where it counts - in their wallets.
Please don't do this to the environment:
"multiple purchases on Amazon Prime Day and return them all,"
It is INITIAL $$$$ volume that gets Amazon press. The higher $$$= their "win"
They don't report on $ after returns.
Returns affect sellers on Amazon who are trying to make a living on this platform that already takes very high fees. I support the sentiment though!
I think we should do a massive hands across America
I think we need to do massive demonstrations in front of the white house.
And in front of the Supreme Court!
Be sure to listen to J. Michael Luttig's most recent interview about John Roberts. Made me so sad/mad! He has disgraced his oath and his former honor.
I listened to that interview as well. Judge Luttig's take down of Roberts and the puppet SC was fantastic.
Where can you find it?
Judge J. Luttig also has a substack page. You should be able to find it there. I think Meidas also has that interview.
Here's the link:
https://www.meidasplus.com/p/judge-luttig-scorches-justice-roberts
I think we need to have massive strikes across the country in every single industry.
Sign up here:
https://generalstrikeus.com/strikecard
Already did that months ago.
Good. The more the better.
And in front of Congress!
He would likely call out the military to o stop it.
There's more of us than them. And we have guns, too.
Not enough though. Perhaps that needs to be changed if we are to defend ourselves against the brown shirts he will send into our streets at some point.
At least half of them will tell him where he can stuff it. Did you see the way the soldiers sauntered at his self-congratulatory military parade? They ambled, not marched.
Sure there are MAGAnuts in the military, but I'd say there are even more service members who take their oath seriously. For every Michael Flynn there are likely two or three Mark Milley's.
Masses blocking the gates, 100 deep, completely surrounding the property.
Where is this?
I agree, Julianne!
I agree! Hands Across America is something I thought about.
I participated in Hands Across America many years ago. It was very powerful.
We need to do this now but I'm not sure how to get it organized and we need to be strong in front of the white house.
I found this original protest song on YouTube months ago. I think it should be our #1 song with a lot of others from past protests following. :-) https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=eN0Pr9KqjFg
Fantastic, thanks so much. !!!!!
This is a fabulous song to get us moving! Thanks!
Post it everywhere! :-)

"I'm going to stop this war in less than 24 hours", quoted by a dumb ass.
M-morons
A-are
G-Gaslighting
A-America
Actually I think Putin half expected a welcoming as their liberator. Boy was he wrong.
I was going to say that. He thought that he would be welcomed. He figured he would "conquer" them within 2 weeks. If ever we needed someone on our side my first choice would be the Ukrainian people. Their spirit and endurance is amazing.
He was welcomed as a liberator - by a really tiny minority of Russian nationalists in the eastern region of Ukraine. The rest of Ukraine said "eat our drones!"
If I recall correctly the Russians were all dressed up like victors arriving.
I didn't remember their arrival being celebrated by the easterners.
Only a really tiny few. Not enough to make headlines - much to Rash Putin's disappointment.
Wasn't there a big deal made by the religious groups also. The Russian religious endorsed Putin and the Ukrainian Church rejected him?
One of the things you can do to send a message is to stop all business with Amazon. Boycotting with our wallets sends a message. Back in April there were several weeks of boycotts of Amazon, Target and Wal-Mart. I've stopped spending money with these businesses because they capitulated to Taco Don.

I will have to look again and see if I can find the petition. I looked last week after I saw the article; but, couldn't find it.
If you find the petition, please share. CalExit

Unfortunately, there are many little blue dots in red states.
Very good point!
Of course it was inaccurate. Texas said they could deal with it, and Trump killed NOAA and the NWS with severe cuts to people and technology.
Jennifer, I agree. Election suppression already happening. We need to keep an eye on state board of elections.
There's people DYING due to weather events & warnings not going out that could save lives due to cuts by this regime.
Absolutely right! Doge cut NOAA n NWS! And American citizens died in tornados, lost most everything they worked for all their lives! And now young children missing in floods.

Sorry, I can't help myself. Josh Johnson was in Washington D.C. and talks about the weather. LOL
He has a grudge against the weather service and NOAA and hates them.

We need to keep telling him like it is. There are many different people in our great country who are citizens with a voice. He needs to hear it.
Also, he is probably being coached by his spiritual advisor that the negativity he receives is all part of being the anointed, chosen by God savior.
Love you 🇨🇦🇨🇦🇨🇦🇨🇦
Be on V. I. next month!
Sorry about the dickwad in the people’s house!🇨🇦🇨🇦🇺🇸🇺🇸
We get discouraged. I wish there was at least ONE big win for us amongst all the bs. Yet, when I see clips of protests, it heartens me and makes me want to create my next protest sign. I saw one a vet had that just said "Stop this Nazi Shit." It was only 4 words, but says it all.
He sees the No Kings and doubles down on the cruelty because they piss him off. He is so determined to be in control of everything.
Probably so, but we need to keep telling him he is a liar, coward, thief. Too bad if he doesn't like it.
Canadian here. Looking forward to your announcement next week about Canadian news coverage. Elbows up!
Love you 🇨🇦🇨🇦
I think I have a pretty good idea what the Canadian news is about. I hope I’m right.
💪🏼 💪🏼🇨🇦
Thank you so much for your positive energy. I was tapped out. But this has helped. Your posts are so important.
We must keep moving forward. Our truth is so important to the American people. We cannot continue to allow the propaganda to spew without a fight for the truth. I will continue to spread the "Meidas" words and stand with democracy. I am pissed, distressed, sad, and yet, like you, will continue to find ways to inspire and stand with truth.
ELBOWS UP!!!!! Thank you all for your honesty, integrity and tenacity. You are my lifeline.
I really needed to hear that today! I also want to thank your families for supporting you in this because I’m sure it takes up a lot of your time. I appreciate all you are doing.

If you don’t march in line with the regime you will be imprisoned. Or sent to one of the concentration camps. I hope I am overreacting.

Share numbers with friends!
It’s an easy thing to do!
No. Too many folks still have the "It can't happen here" attitude that is going to sink us if we don't counter it.
It is starting to happen here. We the people need to rise up!
202 225 3121 or 202 224 3121 will reach any member of congress!
Call the 🐓💩red state senators n house members!
Pass the number to friends!
No overreacting. That's where it's going very quickly.
Got to fight back!

I read that crap too.
There’s a lot of misinformation about whether the Big Horrible Bill eliminates taxes on SS retirement benefits. Rump says it does, but it doesn’t. There’s a “however”, however: while the Big Horrible Bill does not eliminate taxes on Social Security benefits, it does provide a $6000 deduction for individuals ($12,000 for a married couples) who are older than 65, which is the functional equivalent of reducing taxes on Social Security recipients. Those who delay receiving Social Security, or get less than $6000 in SS benefits, will still get the deduction if they are 65 or older. So, in some ways, the deduction is even better than simply not taxing $6000 of Social Security benefits. Since most people on Social Security get more than $6000 a year, the tax deduction is less favorable than the complete elimination of all taxes on all Social Security retirement benefits.
I should add that SS is already taxed at 50% if your “combined income” (AGI + nontaxable interest income + one-half of your Social Security) is $34,000 or less for single filers ($44,000 or less for Married Filing Jointly). It’s taxed at 85%, not 50%, if your “combined income” is above $34,000 for single filers ($44,000 Married Filing Jointly). It’s not taxed at all if your “combined income” is $25K or less.
Also, this new $6000 deduction is temporary: it’s in effect from the fiscal year 2025 through 2028. It will expire at the end of 2028. (Of course, just through the Rump term!) And it’s phased out for high income earners (individuals earning more than 75K; married couples earning more than $150K).
Correct, but the way it’s written is misleading, and most people not paying attention won’t understand the nuances. Overall, the tone of the email lavishing praise on this “landmark” legislation was infuriating.
I got one from my totally MAGA Senator that made me want to vomit.

202 225 3121 or 202 224 3121 will reach any member of congress!
Call 🐓💩🫏🫦ing red state treasonous bastards!
They need to know that they are going to be unemployed!💪🇺🇸🔷
Thanks for the reminder Ben. It’s more important now than ever.
He is going to bankrupt this country. That is probably his goal because he thinks that would be a way to own the libs!!
And fill his wallet.
It will also allow attacks on US soil.
ELBOWS UP❗️
(and at least one knee 😏)
Grateful for MTN !!👍🏻🇺🇸
Ty Ben. Yesterday was rough, I couldn’t get into celebrating this country’s independence, when Republicans passed a bill the day before to end independence as we know it.😞 But yet we must not stop the resistance. We have to get louder and more persistent. More people are getting tired of the regime, and the movement will grow. Thank you Meidas, for giving us our voice. 🫶👊🏿📣🤜🤛💙🇺🇸🇺🇸🇺🇸🇺🇸🇺🇸🇺🇸🇺🇸🇺🇸 We will make America beautiful again!
I couldn't celebrate either. Usually wear red, white, & blue. Just wanted to wear black.
I did wear black yesterday.
