Woohoo! Keep up the pressure!

Reach out (beyond your own) to as many in the Senate and House as you can. All of this is bigger than an โ€œI only represent my constituentsโ€ issue.

Use/share this spreadsheet (bit.ly/Goodtrouble) as a resource to call/email/write members of Congress, the Cabinet and news organizations. Reach out to those in your own state, and those in a committee that fits your topic. Call. Write. Email. Protest. Unrelentingly. We deserve better โค๏ธโ€๐Ÿฉน๐Ÿค๐Ÿ’™

Stars and Stripes Daily Headlines

October 5, 2025

https://www.stripes.com/theaters/us/2025-10-04/chicago-illinois-national-guard-called-up-300-19319073.html

https://www.stripes.com/theaters/us/2025-10-05/trump-national-guard-portland-oregon-19328394.html

https://www.stripes.com/theaters/us/2025-10-05/trump-national-guard-chicago-deployment-19326140.html

It is very, very unusual for Stars and Stripes to run three related stories like this on the same day.

Keep in mind, not a leftist rag, Stars and Stripes, founded 1861, is the official Department of Defense news publication under federal law (32 CFR Part 246) having authority and responsibility to provide First Amendment-type reporting and editorially independent media products for the benefit of the U.S. military community, including current service members and veterans and their families, and including DoD civilian employees and contractor personnel, particularly those serving overseas. Stars and Stripes reporters are DoD employees.

Thanks, Allison, for going live with this news. I was having a bad night thinking about all the stuff thatโ€™s going on, and the news of Trump/Miller/Hegseth sending the CA Guard to Portland made me want to just shut down. Then you and Adam came online with the results of the hearing, and I was able to uncurl from my fetal position on the couch and finish getting ready for the work week. Thank you.

Great, I got out of bed and turned on MSNBC and theyโ€™re airing reruns while our republic is under attack.

Is it just me, or does it seem like Trumpโ€™s staff is taking advantage of his greatly diminished mental capacity? Perhaps someone needs to point this out to him. Just saying.

Itโ€™s such a relief to hear about these cases!

Also, extremely entertaining ๐Ÿฟ๐Ÿฟ

Toddler in chief chucked a tanty and ordered the National Guard from Cali to Oregon! ๐Ÿ˜†

Hapless Harrison probably told him that wouldnโ€™t work but Donnyboy canโ€™t take โ€œnoโ€ for an answer.

I could almost feel sorry for Harrison, having to argue with a Judge like a 5yo. But I donโ€™t ๐Ÿ˜‚

Heโ€™s made a tit of himself and is going to be in bigly trouble when he gets home!

DJ probably hurled his dummy out of the cot ๐Ÿคฃ๐Ÿ˜ตโ€๐Ÿ’ซ

I'd love to know if the judges are aware of your work and if they appreciate the support (well, the ones that make lawful decisions at least!) I hope so. Read about one judge's house being set fire earlier, and her husband having to jump to escape. He's in the hospital. And after the Michigan assassin... They are always brave, but especially now.

Thank you I needed this!

One of the things I love about independent journalism is while the professionalism is still there. The flexibility definitely is and itโ€™s a much more casual environment, ripe for intimacy and connection thank you thank you thank you.
