  • The Power of We

    Like many of you, I am exhausted. Not so much physically, but emotionally drained. That quote, “Oh, I am very weary, Though tears no longer flow; My eyes are tired of weeping, My heart is sick of woe” (Anne Bronte), says a lot for me, maybe for you too.  Looking back to January 20, 2025,…

  • Good Morning, Card Campaigners!

    Card Campaign’s mission is straightforward: share facts about the current state of America’s democracy and highlight the impact of this administration’s actions and decisions so more people understand what is really happening in our nation. When we know the facts, we can make better choices for ourselves, families, and communities. As the atmosphere pulses bluer…

  • Take Time to Breathe

    So much BS comes at us throughout the day. Between whiskey Pete promising obliteration and Trump promising he’ll know when to end the senseless war he started when he feels it in his bones. That’s Trump babble 101; he never graduated to 102 because his brain fell out when he won the presidency through Project…

  • Card 35: Postcard to Congress

    CONGRESS, LISTEN UP: RECLAIM YOUR POWER To Our Senators and Representatives: Congress holds the highest authority in our government and the responsibility to act swiftly against a reckless administration and a volatile president. Right now we have a dangerously unstable leader who threatens genocide and war crimes that put our national security at grave risk….

  • Card 34: Voter Suppression

    VOTER SUPPRESSION: What Does It Mean for Your Vote? Everyone wants to have free and fair elections and to know that their votes count. Everyone, that is, except political operatives who want power and control over others. Voter fraud is extremely rare: For example, in swing state Pennsylvania, Heritage Foundation data from over 30 years…

  • What’s Next?

    Indivisible has some ideas. Note: Indivisible and their partners are calling for a National Day of Economic Disruption on Friday, May 1 – no work, no school, no shopping. We at Card Campaign are aware not everyone can take part. Some people can’t afford to miss work. Some people, like medical staff and first responders,…

  • Where Do We Go From Here?

    We had a phenomenal day with the turnout at the No Kings rallies yesterday from small towns to big cities in every state. Every Congressional district in the country was represented, with supporting rallies in many other countries (16, I think). It was energizing and fun and hopeful. But, over and over I also heard…

  • Card 33: No Kings in America

    NO KINGS IN AMERICA
    SOLDIERS OFF OUR STREETS
    ICE OUT, CBP FIXED

    On January 20, 2025, Donald Trump began his first day in office as a dictator, as he had promised, and he has remained a dictator ever since.

    The Trump government, in less than a year, has transformed our country into a fledgling authoritarian regime, altering the fundamental principles of our democracy.

  • Welcome Democracy Defenders

    Today, the Card Campaign released two important cards, both addressing the abuses of the regime’s secret police, also known as ICE and CBP (Customs and Border Protection). Since the murders of Renee Good and Alex Pretti, it’s become clear that we need to not only know our rights but also learn how to stay safe…

  • Card 32: Protesting

    PROTESTING:Stand Strong, Stay Safe, Make an Impact! Nonviolent protest is a Constitutional right.  History shows us that nonviolent protests are more successful than violent ones. Peaceful movements inspire change, boost morale, and foster unity in ways that aggression cannot. Regardless of location or reason, protests can be peaceful, safe, and effective while achieving our goals….
