Twelve years ago today, we lost 20 children and six educators in Sandy Hook to a tragic and senseless act of gun violence. Today, we honor their memory and continue the fight for a safer future.

These cabinet nominees are basically a demand that the Senate hand over a chunk of its power to the President-elect.

Here’s how that might happen:

In response to the Trump election, @reproequity_now, in collaboration with @AGWilliamTong, launched a free, confidential hotline for patients, providers & helpers looking for legal advice when trying to obtain or offer abortions in #Connecticut. https://t.co/2ubWW2JLes

Remember, by elevating incompetent fascists like Hegseth, Gabbard, and Gaetz, the aim is to demoralize us.

It's ok to be horrified by the injustice and insanity of it all, but instead of feeling helpless and withdrawing, let’s get angry and fight.

Project 2025 architect Tom Homan is Trump’s pick for Border Czar. The former ICE director who designed the family separation policy said the military will be involved in mass deportation and supports deporting kids who were born & raised in the U.S. to undocumented immigrants

[Ed Krassenstein @EdKrassen]

Say hello to Trump’s new Border Czar, Tom Homan.

He’s the man who pushed for family separation at the border.

Could you imagine suggesting taken children away from their parents? These are human beings looking for a better life and innocent children who have no say in the matter.

This is evangelical Christian preacher Mike Huckabee, Trump’s pick for U.S. ambassador to Israel. A devout believer of "End Times" theology, Huckabee has said that there’s no such thing as a West Bank (or a Palestinian) and has a long history of Islamophobic rhetoric.

[Eli Kowaz - איליי קואז @elikowaz]

"There is no such thing as the West Bank - it's Judea and Samaria. There is no such thing as settlements - they're communities, they're neighborhoods, they're cities. There is no such thing as an occupation."

-Mike Huckabee, Incoming US Ambassador to Israel

[Fairfield Democrats @FairfieldCTDems]

Fox News host Pete Hegseth is Trump’s shockingly unqualified pick for Secretary of Defense. Hegseth has said women don't belong in combat, that veterans who use their military benefits lack personal integrity, and he's opposed to 'woke' equity & inclusion measures in the military

[CALL TO ACTIVISM @CalltoActivism]

MAJOR BREAKING NEWS:

In an absolutely stunning and disqualifying resurfaced clip, Trump’s selection for Secretary of Defense Pete Hegseth said America “should not have women in combat roles.”

RT so every American sees how awful Donald Trump’s decisions are.

[Fairfield Democrats @FairfieldCTDems]

Tulsi Gabbard is Trump’s disastrously unqualified and incredibly dangerous pick for Director of National Intelligence. A known Russian asset and Bashar al-Assad apologist, she will ensure Putin's unfettered access to US intelligence.

[VoteVets @votevets]

NEW: VoteVets Responds To Tulsi Gabbard Being Put In Charge Of Intelligence

"Putting Tulsi Gabbard in charge of our intelligence, which keeps Americans safe here and abroad, is dangerous and reckless...Many warned that Trump would dispense of all guardrails in a second term, so every whim of his would be carried out without question or protest. We are now seeing exactly what that looks like."
