Remind them that Trump doesn't have to get re-elected, but they do. They need to keep their hands off our medicare, medicaid, and food assistance because we are NOT OK with them taking OUR money to give themselves tax breaks. Call them every day. Pick a time and take a minute to keep reminding them who they work for. Remind them that WE are the government, NOT them, and that they can be replaced if they abandon us.5calls.org Contacting U.S. SenatorsSure Would be a shame if nobody showed up to Donald's fascist birthday parade250th Anniversary of the U.S. Army Grand Military Parade and CelebrationFind Upcoming Demonstrations And Actions:50501 MovementJune 14th Nationwide Demonstrations - NoKings.orgIndivisible.orgShare your Good News or Good Trouble:dailybeanspod.com/goodFrom The Good NewsSchedule F comments deadline extended to June 7th Federal Register :: Improving Performance, Accountability and Responsiveness in the Civil ServiceCompassion 4 PawsReminder - you can see the pod pics if you become a Patron.

AG does a wonderful job breaking down complex topics. She takes daily news and digs down a bit deeper to explain. She has great guests on who help explain legal matters and institutional processes. After giving all the daily news and updates, she has good news from listeners, which helps make daily news bearable.

I wholeheartedly enjoy the snark and laughs with my increasingly-doomsday-feeling news. I drive an hour each way to get my kiddos to school in the mornings and I gladly fill my coffee cup, throw in an earbud and get caught up on current events while I drive. Daily Beans and I’ve Had It podcast are my daily routine and I love it.

Humor in dark days

If you want your news with actual facts but not boring. News with swearing is the way to go. They end every podcast with happy stories. Can not recommend enough.
