  1. The problem is not one political party or politician. But that we're duped into believing we need these unqualified people bickering over who would do the best job. You would not spend tens of thousands a year on anything else without evidence. Not a #civicduty but a con by those who seek power.

  2. The President started a war Feb 28. Today marks the 60-day constitutional limit under the War Powers Act. Gas is up to $4.39/gal ($25B spent). While he calls reporting "seditious," the math is undeniable. The resolution returns. Call your senator. The sky is blue, the war is real, and the clock is ticking. #WarPowersAct #EndTheWar #GasPrices #Politics #Resistance #CivicDuty #StopTheWar #Democracy twp.ai/9OUqJf

  7. They expect us to roll over and hand them the next election out of sheer exhaustion and apathy. Not going to happen. We carry on like those who fought, organized and sacrificed for our right to vote. We show up. We stay engaged. We do not give it away. #Vote #ProtectTheVote #Democracy #VotingRights #StayEngaged #CivicDuty #Election2026 #NoApathy #KeepFighting #PowerOfThePeople #RegisterToVote #GetOutTheVote #Accountability #DemocracyInAction #VoteAnyway

  12. The SNP candidate secured close to 50% of the vote in my constituency in the 2021 #ScotGov #election, such that I fear that my vote won’t make the slightest bit of difference in next week’s election.

    Anyway, handed off my postal ballot to the postie this afternoon. #CivicDuty and all that.

  15. The most patriotic thing you can do when the government stops representing the people is to speak up. Whether it’s executive overreach bypassing Congress on war powers or the flood of unilateral executive orders, silence isn’t an option. Demand better than incompetence from your representatives. Dissent is a duty.

  19. A quotation from George Orwell

    By “nationalism” I mean first of all the habit of assuming that human beings can be classified like insects and that whole blocks of millions or tens of millions of people can be confidently labeled “good” or “bad.” But secondly — and this is much more important — I mean the habit of identifying oneself with a single nation or other unit, placing it beyond good and evil and recognizing no other duty than that of advancing its interests.

    George Orwell (1903-1950) English journalist, essayist, writer [pseud. of Eric Arthur Blair]
    Essay (1945-05), “Notes on Nationalism,” Polemic Magazine (1945-10)

  24. A quotation from Hannah Arendt

  29. Leadership isn’t just policy — it’s the tone we normalize, the truths we protect, and the future we shape. Every political era ends. What remains is the country we leave our children. Character matters. Choices matter. Participation matters. 🇺🇸 #Leadership #Democracy #FutureGenerations #CivicDuty

  30. When loyalty replaces honesty and outrage replaces debate, democracy weakens. Truth matters. Character matters. Power must answer to law. We can disagree without destroying each other. Let’s rebuild trust before it’s too late. 🇺🇸 #CharacterCounts #Democracy #TruthMatters #CivicDuty #RuleOfLaw
