INDIVISIBLE has a strategy to resist SCOTUS reimagining by tRump.

You may have seen this on Rachel Maddow two nights ago. We have done this before (with the ACA) and it can be done again!

We have the winning strategy. Now, here’s how we do it.
Call. Show up. Call again. This is our bread and butter as a movement, and how we most effectively put pressure on our Senators. Each and every senator needs to hear from their constituents. Indivisibles in Alaska, Indiana, Maine, North Dakota, and West Virginia: your Senators are key votes in this fight. We need to let both Republicans and Democrats know that a ‘yes’ vote on Trump’s nominee is politically toxic, and it’ll follow them for the rest of their careers. Use our resource and call script to prepare, and then make your call. We’ve set up a toll-free number at 1-844-778-3056. Use it. Share it. Keep. On. Calling.

Your Senators will be on recess beginning today, until July 8. They’ll be home for a week working from their district offices and they’ll be at 4th of July parades, town halls, and barbeques. Read up on our resource to use these local public events to get facetime with your Senators.

Commit to volunteer to target voters in our five target states to flip the Senate -- AZ, MS, NV, TN, and TX. Indivisibles are e-v-e-r-y-w-h-e-r-e, and they’re already working to take back power and flip the Senate. And the stakes have never been higher. Are you ready to get to work? Sign up and commit to volunteer now. We’re building out a national phonebank to begin reaching progressive voters in these deep red states.

We continue fighting across different issues, our advocacy is linked by a common cause. The Trump administration does not serve the will of the people, and we have a moral imperative to use our power to demand our leaders listen to us -- or else, we elect ones who will.
We’re fighting to save American democracy. Let’s do this.

No president under federal investigation should get to appoint judges that will hear cases on that investigation.

It is basic conflict of interest.

Moreover no president under investigation for espionage and conspiracy to harm the United States should get to appoint judges. Let the investigation run its course.
