Welcome to the upside-down, where Republicans seem unconcerned with the deficit, a U.S. cabinet secretary takes off his shirt to drink milk with Kid Rock, and Team USA has become the voice of reason.

A win for historical truth at the President's House on President's Day. Yes!

The bad news defies belief, but the good news seems...really good? What can you do to save democracy this weekend?

Vaccines, ICE, and Epstein again? Yes, unfortunately. But if you have a few minutes, you can do something about mass surveillance. So let's do it!

The Fifth Circuit deals due process a blow, but district courts (and high schoolers!) keep up the good fight. Do you have 5 minutes to contact congress, learn about boycotts, or mark your calendar today?

It's not all bad news! Local and state governments are stepping up to block new ICE detention centers and it turns out that "wine moms" are real and they have a super-cute website packed with real-life-friendly action ideas.

I love CSPAN. Take a look at yesterday's testimony and I bet you find the wherewithal to call your House Reps and Senators about DHS funding (or de-funding, even).

If you've had all the bad news you can take already, skip right past it and focus on what's good. Then find something to do that makes YOU feel good. I believe in you!

Does it feel like so much has happened since Wednesday? Let's focus in and do...something! Visit the Action Library for more ideas.

Increasing risks for nuclear safety, public health, and ICE observers, but growing signs of opposition in congress, the courts, and on the local level. Have you participated in your democracy today?

Shooting citizens in broad daylight makes for some strange bedfellows, but here we are. Let's keep going, taking inspiration from the good people of Minnesota.

Welp, it's been a week. But courts and juries aren't having it, so let's do like the good people of Minneapolis and KEEP GOING!

Science, privacy, and the line between public service and private enrichment keep taking hits, but religious leaders are stepping up, as are House Democrats. How about you? (I've got some ideas.)

Today is a good day to reflect on non-compliance, black history, and signs of tyranny. If you've got ten minutes, I've got the links. Let's do this.

In case you're just joining, we review the recent expansion of presidential power, but it turns out that Congress may have its own ideas on the federal budget and courts keep insisting that laws exist. What does good citizenship look like for you this weekend?

The situation for immigrants is going from bad to worse, while U.S. citizens and Democratic congressfolks look for ways to turn the tide. Have you found a way to participate?

Bad news persists, but so do we, taking inspiration from brave objectors and doing what we can, when we can. Do you have room in your week for a postcard ... or more?

Wrapping up a difficult week with a look at what's happened, including some rays of light (on Capitol Hill, even!) and things you can do, like today, tomorrow, and Sunday. Let's go!

Bad news for objective truth, social services funding, and possibly Greenland, but courts continue to uphold the law and critical thinking starts at home, so let's make sure we're walking the walk, shall we?

Concerning developments regarding U.S. military intervention, public health, and free speech, but take heart! People are speaking out and you can, too!

Not gonna lie, the Bad News today is big and bad. But let's keep moving toward the points of light! Resistance is not futile, truly.

Bad news for mail-in ballots, health care, and the concept of "laws," but good news about militarization, medical research, and consumer protection, with 3 easy to-dos to get you started on the right foot.

Ending the year with a look back on climate and health, as well as a new immigration front to watch. But resistance is growing and there are easy things for you to do. (So easy, I promise.)
