We’re starting to see what consistent pressure actually produces. Wins are stacking up — not because the system suddenly got fair, but because people refused to let up. That’s the only thing that’s ever moved the needle.
Action item for today if you’re on social media…..😂 And don’t forget to do your rain dance for tonight!

Narcissists run on attention. Starve one.
On June 14, Boston Indivisible is wishing a happy birthday to literally anything else — a sock, a sandwich, a parking meter, the squirrel that keeps eating your plants. Anything but the person who needs you to notice.
This is our quietest, friendliest act of resistance: total, cheerful indifference. Here's what to do:
Post on Instagram, TikTok, Facebook, or X/Twitter wishing a happy birthday to any random object, creature, or moment in your life. Use the hashtag #HappyBirthdayAnything so we can find your post and celebrate together.
That's it. No rally. No sign. Just you, your left sock, and a complete lack of interest in whoever's birthday it actually is.
Need inspiration? Here are some starter captions:
Happy birthday to the Market Basket cart with four working wheels. I think about you often. #HappyBirthdayAnything
Happy birthday to my left sock. The right one knows what it did. #HappyBirthdayAnything
Shoutout to the parking meter on Commonwealth Ave that gave me 4 extra minutes once. I think about you. #HappyBirthdayAnything
Happy birthday to my coffee, who has never let me down, lied to me, or attempted a coup. #HappyBirthdayAnything
Agree 💯! I would have pointed out to her it was not me who had a closed mind, who had blinders on but Assistant US Attorney Sheri Mecklenburg, because all the white-supremacist racist misogynistic fascist nazis in this regime are blindly following Orange Shitler not realizing, or perhaps not caring, they are blind to his nazi like authoritarian rhetoric and are following him off a cliff. Their day will come and there will be no place on God's earth where they will be able to hide!
I'm in the camp of "Fool me once, shame on you. Fool me twice, shame on me."
Anyone who voted for Trump more than once is in a cult IMO. If you care about someone who fits this bill, consider checking out the resources at Leaving MAGA
Prosecutors who bully a grand jury need to be sanctioned and if they don’t stop, they need to be disbarred! Coal is dirty energy, solar is not! Build more solar and leave the coal underground where it doesn’t hurt the environment
Agree with all Patti! So sick of cowardly, compromised, corrupt Trump attorneys. Yes, they should all be disbarred. And love the solar versus coal results. So true, "Trump can't bully the sun." Excellent!
Not only is coal dirty, but it's a non-renewable source of energy. It's going to be gone at some point anyway, and we'll all do what some of us are trying so desperately not to do. And coal is not only dirty, but it creates heat, which is the last thing an overheating planet needs.
While I am all for clean energy, I do recall from school days that there is a difference between anthracite coal and bituminous coal. I expect that fact remains important.
About 1950, our family heated our home with coal, and I believe it was anthracite. We changed to an oil furnace, and that heat made life much easier. A coal bin was no longer needed, and the thoroughly cleaned area made the basement more spacious and usable. Within that decade, in a newer home, we changed the heating system to natural gas and appreciated how much cleaner our home stayed!
People I know, who have have and have had solar power for a few years, seem not to have noticed much benefit in the winter months, so far. I am awaiting updated information. However, people I know, who have geothermal heating and cooling for a constant temperature control are especially pleased with that improvement. Unfortunately, it is not an option for many of us.
Long ago there was an article in Mother Earth News telling of many feet or yards of underground piping, with the constant temperature of the air being powered by a fan from a separate building. It was not water temperature, but I believe the fan could be powered by solar energy in such a situation. I have not read any more about that method in recent years, or ever!
I would like to know of solar benefits from home owners living where winters are severe and of any helpful details.
Solar benefits from sunshine, not necessarily warm temperatures. My son has in Alaska has solar in his cabin and does derive a benefit in the winter but his cabin is small so he doesn’t need a lot of power. We need to be building power grids in places like AZ where there is a lot of desert land and lots of sunshine
Anyone planning a career in our legal system needs to know that such behavior will cause them to be disbarred for life. This is how we do it. Catch someone at it and make them the example of the cost of falsehoods in court.
Coal shouldn't even be allowed as an energy source! The adverse affects caused by just the mining of coal, including the deaths of thousands of hardworking people, should be enough to end this insanity. I live in the California desert near Palm Springs and have had solar panels on my home for several years now. The only thing I pay each month is a fee to use the grid, usually around $30 per month, because I'm still tethered to it. Once technology catches up, I'm going to buy a battery and completely unplug from the grid. As far as TRump's private law firm, our former Department of Justice, ALL of those attorneys should be investigated and/or disbarred if they have been found guilty of pushing through fraudulent indictments, at TRump's behest. TRump's Revenge Tour will end once we win the House AND the Senate in November and our new representatives start their jobs in January 2027. ONWARD!! 🇺🇲🇺🇲🇺🇲
Until we transition completely to other energy sources, we need some coal. But that should be its only use at this point. The US has gone backwards under this regime. Other countries are surging ahead with clean energy while we are left in the (coal) dust.
<< One solar panel on one roof doesn’t change much. But millions of them just beat an industry that ran this country for a hundred years. >>
Yet, at the local level, people fight against solar farms. This nation has a huge appetite for energy. Hard choices have to be made. It's either solar, which is clean or it's coal which is dirty.
We have a huge wind farm, along with a lot of solar farms, in the Palm Springs area. Everyone loves looking at them because we all know and love that it's renewable, green energy. The fossil fuel industry will do anything they can to impede progress on green energy, because then, they'll all be out of a job. It's too bad that they don't have the foresight to see that if they invested in the green energy sector, they'd make even more money. Hopefully they'll see the light someday.
If we ever get a president who sees a need to create better energy sources, (like we had with Biden!) I would love to see all new construction of homes and businesses given incentives for solar or wind sources and other such efficiencies, built in. I would also like to see our freeways include ways to capture the winds created traffic. these could be small tubular turbines along the center divider. And that goes for windy cities, too! Why not have tubular wind turbines on the upper stories at the corners of city buildings? Seattle and Chicago are examples of many days with downtown wind sources.
I don't remember the European country that has sojar panels over roads or trains. Seems like good places to put them. The land is already used for the road. Why not use it for solar too?
Attorneys who mislead grand juries should be disbarred for any attempt that undermines justice; it is a violation of the Oath of Office and should be treated as the serious violation it is. No passes.
Not sure any lawyer should be given a free pass, even once. They are lawyers after all! Do your job professionally or find some other means of earning a living. We have enough examples of judges who think they can get away with fudging the rules. We do not need lawyers making that a practice as well.
#1: I grew up in coal country. It's dirty, the filth infests a miner's body, everywhere, coal causes black Lung disease. I had friends whose fathers worked in the mines. They never made it to retirement age w/out a disability if they made it at all. So, I am all for solar beating out coal and any other fossil fuel.
#2: Prosecuters who cheat need to be arrested, prosecuted, fined and disbarred.

Any lawyer who lies and cheats for Drumpf should be disbarred forthwith.
KEEP TRACK OF THOSE NAMES!
We'll get them all!
It will take time, but MAGA = Make Attorneys Get Attorneys!
very good slogan
Love that Grand Jurist! “…I thought it was a crock of sh*t then and I still think that!” Says it all.

People who voted for him will not admit it, in the future, when this shit show is in the rearview.
the ones I know - I'll make sure they NEVER forget it.
I'm in the camp of "Fool me once, shame on you. Fool me twice, shame on me."

I have broken from several friends, but I a very fortunate not to have any family members who voted for Trump.
I'm waiting and hoping!! They must all be held accountable!

Hoping that Judge Brinkema’s order stays at least until January 2029. To Indefinite and beyond!! (If necessary)
Cheating Lawyers Should Be Disbarred & Brought Up On Charges
Anyone planning a career in our legal system needs to know that such behavior will cause them to be disbarred for life. This is how we do it. Catch someone at it and make them the example of the cost of falsehoods in court.
They think DEMENTIA DON will protect them!
Rick Wilson had it right when he wrote "Everything Trump Touches Dies"
https://www.simonandschuster.com/books/Everything-Trump-Touches-Dies/Rick-Wilson/9781982103149
The GOP should have listened.
Ouch! Disbarring them for life seems so harsh. Can't we just send them to the CECOT resort for life?
Absolutely!

Yes, Yes, Yes, Megan!

Thanks for the awesome news! These wins are reminders that the work we’re doing together is working.
What do you think should happen to prosecutors who cheat grand juries?
They should be disbarred immediately. Maybe setting a few dozen examples will make these attorneys not so quick to please Dear Leader.

There are 9 panels on my roof and my energy bill has gone down 74%
Give THAT some thought.
WOOHOO! Go Judy! :-)

Does anyone else keep hearing this song in their head?
🎶 I fought the law and the law won. 🎶
What a win for our solar system!! It is long past time to rid this country of coal, we have much better choices to make
You lie…you’re gone…no room for lies on a courtroom!!!!
