@ai6yr I had a bad experience with the Red Cross during and after Hurricane Katrina. I will never donate anything to them.
@ai6yr And always keep in mind there are other organizations where you can donate that do not try to grab credit for what others are doing, and do not keep as much of the money as the ARC.
Someone shared with me a really innovative site for presenting info on #Project2025. You choose what "I care about" from a drop-down list, click "Show me," and then the website describes how P25 will impact that area -- including PAGE NUMBERS from the actual document. Y'all know what to do.

@GreenFire Every benefit the working class has, came from liberals, 5 day, 40hr work week, paid vacation, the ability to have union representation, etc.
Nice speech by Shomari Figures. (Yes, I’m biased.) The kid has really made something of himself, and his mama has every right to the proud tears she shed watching him tonight. #DNC
Jim Jordan's ex-students turn up at DNC to attack him over claims he ignored sex abuse - Raw Story
I don't want to publicize these cruel low-life human beings. But, at the same time, we need to know they're out there, and we need to expose the cynical hollowness of their claims that they stand for "God" and "family values" and "morality."
As Parker Molloy says, Trump supporters are now openly mocking Tim Walz's neurodivergent son Gus Walz and his touching display of pride and love at last night's DNC.
