SUMMARY:MAY DAY: National Day of Action
DESCRIPTION:Clerk of the Circuit Court & Comptroller\, Palm Beach County\n\n\n205 N Dixie Hwy\nDetails + RSVP if you wish:\nWest Palm Beach\, FL 33401\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nAcross the country—from fruit fields in California to classrooms in Chicago\, from kitchens in Queens to loading docks in Atlanta—working people are rising up. We are demanding a country that puts our families over their fortunes—public schools over private profits\, healthcare over hedge funds\, housing over homelessness. \nMusk\, Trump and their fellow profiteers are trying to create a race to the bottom—on wages\, on benefits\, on dignity itself. They want to erase labor rights\, break our unions\, and silence immigrant voices. \nMay Day 2025 we are standing united. We’re organizing for a world where every family has housing\, healthcare\, fair wages\, union protection\, and safety—regardless of race\, zip code\, or immigration status. \nThey’re defunding our schools\, privatizing public services\, attacking unions\, and targeting immigrant families with fear and violence. This is a war on working people—and we will not stand down. Using the principles of nonviolence and peaceful protest\, we will stand together and stand strong. \nThis May Day\, we will turn the page. This is the beginning of a new era—one where working families lead\, immigrants are protected\, and no one is left behind. This is not charity. This is not a request. We are reclaiming our power from corporate elites\, and we will not be intimidated by Trump\, Musk\, or their billionaire backers. They’ve ruled for too long. Their time is up. \nSTOP THE BILLIONAIRE TAKEOVER. WE ARE THE MANY. THEY ARE THE FEW. THIS IS MAY DAY. JOIN US. \nOrganized by 50501: \n\n50 protests.50 states.1 movement.\n\n\nJoin us in the fight to uphold the Constitution and end executive overreach.

SUMMARY:Finding Trusted News Sources in the Disinformation Era with Red Wine & Blue
DESCRIPTION:Several newspapers recently reported that U.S. Senator Josh Hawley is sounding the alarm about a new report on the abortion pill\, mifepristone. \nThere is just one problem – the report Sen. Hawley repeated is totally bogus.1 But many media outlets left that part out.2 \nWith AI\, deepfakes\, and flat out lies spreading widely online\, how do we know which media news sources to trust? How do we tell bad information from good? \nRed Wine & Blue members have asked for help\, and by popular demand\, we have the answer! Veteran journalist and Stanford professor Janine Zacharia is going to show us how to separate disinformation from the facts and which outlets are really reporting the news. Join the conversation about finding trusted news sources on Thursday with Red Wine & Blue. \nRSVP for “Finding Trusted News Sources in the Disinformation Era” on Thursday\, May 22\, at 7:30PM ET. \n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nRSVP\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nWant to know more?

SUMMARY:Indivisible phone bank
DESCRIPTION:From The Invisibles: \n\n\n\nTime\n\n\nWednesdays and Thursdays\n11am – 12:30pm EDT\n\n\n\n\n\n\nLocation\n\n\nVirtual event \nJoin from anywhere\nHosted in Washington\, DC 20001\n\n\n\nAbout this event\n\n\n\n\n\n\nWe certainly have lots to do. I’ve enclosed a link to the Indivisible phone bank to connect voters directly to their senators to vote against the BBB ( Big Beautiful Bill) [Big Ugly Bill].\n\nhttps://www.mobilize.us/indivisible/event/792462/\nEvery Wednesday and Thursday in June\, join Indivisible for a phonebank where we’ll be calling voters and connecting them directly to their Senator. Together\, we’ll urge Republicans to oppose the Trump Tax Scam—a reckless GOP tax plan that prioritizes billionaires like Elon Musk while selling out working families. \nRepublicans in Congress are trying to ram this through using budget reconciliation\, bypassing bipartisan support to give trillions in tax breaks to the ultra-wealthy. Their plan? Slash Medicaid\, SNAP\, and early education programs—all so billionaires can hoard more wealth while everyday Americans pay more. \nWe’ll be using Scale to Win\, our easy-to-use calling tool\, to make sure voters can speak out and be heard. \nLet’s stand up for economic justice. Let’s stop this scam in its tracks. RSVP now and make your voice heard! \n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nAccessibility\n\n\n\n\n\nHave accessibility questions? Reply to your registration email to confirm your requirements or request more information. \n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nWe certainly have lots to do. I’ve enclosed a link to the Indivisible phone bank to connect voters directly to their senators to vote against the BBB ( Big Beautiful Bill) [Big Ugly Bill].\n\nhttps://www.mobilize.us/indivisible/event/792462/\n\nAnd we must continue to call our own Senators to tell them to vote no. We only need to switch 4 R’s. And BTW Moody needs to run for the seat to which she was appointed in ‘26. So there’s that threat to leave with her. Even if we can’t convince them\, they need to hear from their constituents.\n\nAnd finally for today is a reminder of our rally at Mast’s office tomorrow. It maybe our last for the summer because Ginger is heading north. If anyone (or ones) want to volunteer to be “hosts”\, we can continue. Otherwise we will be back in September. [more info on Mast]  https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Brian_Mast\n\nWe can do this.\nBarbara and Ginger [and Beck]

SUMMARY:THE PLAN TO BAN THE ABORTION PILL
DESCRIPTION:  \nJoin Red Wine & Blue\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nReproductive rights remain under unprecedented attack nationwide but some of the most dangerous actions are happening quietly without headlines. At the heart of the strategy is a coordinated effort by extremist lawmakers and anti-abortion organizations to restrict and ultimately ban access to the abortion pill. It’s time for us to get loud about this blatant attack on our reproductive health. Join us to learn about the full scope of their strategy\, who’s behind it\, and how we can fight back to protect our rights. \n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nSIGN UP NOW

Professional piano entertainer Katie Pinder Brown plays and sings live the iconic songs that defined a generation. These are all the classic favorites you’ve loved since the ’60s and ’70s\, like the groundbreaking Brill Building chart-topping pop mega hits conceived in a tiny Times Square cubicle\, the timeless tunes you know by heart but possibly never knew Carole created\, and of course the masterpieces from the record-shattering phenomenon Tapestry\, the emblem of the singer/songwriter era that solidified Carole King’s position as a trailblazing woman to watch.
