Good Trouble - https://near.tl/sm/ik-ZushRa
Our Good Trouble Today Comes From Jess Craven over at Chop Wood Carry Water
In the wake of yet another Mass Shooting at a School - Call your Senators and House Reps and call to reopen the Gun Violence Prevention Office which Trump Shut down in his first week of office. She provides a handy script to follow:

Hi, I’m a constituent calling from [zip]. My name is ______.
I’m calling to demand that Congress act on gun violence NOW. Australia saw a horrific mass shooting this weekend and their government is already in action, preparing a special session in which they will tighten their gun laws. What are we doing here? 46,000 people die from gun violence every year in our country and Congress keeps refusing to act. It’s unconscionable. We want an assault weapons ban. We want universal background checks. We want safe storage laws. And we want the office of Gun Violence Prevention, which Trump shut down in his first week in office, to be reopened immediately. Nothing less will do.”

Good Trouble - https://near.tl/sm/ik-ZushRa

From Joyce Vance - a way to file a formal complaint against Emil Bove:
https://joycevance.substack.com/p/judicial-ethics
“According to The Judicial Conduct and Disability Act of 1980 … anyone can file a complaint about a federal judge. The Act establishes the process for making them. The Code of Conduct for federal judges says “a judge should refrain from political activity” and shouldn’t attend any events “sponsored by a political organization or candidate.” Judges are also charged with upholding the integrity and independence of the judiciary and avoiding impropriety and the appearance of impropriety in all activities….”
"ANY person can file a complaint" Seems perfect for Beans listeners.
