This is a really fantastic, actionable, and readable guide. It's an effort by Congressional staffers to reverse-engineer what was so effective about the Tea Party.
Another good next step is to make a sizable contribution to the ACLU.
Also, support newspapers. Pay the cost of a few drinks to subscribe to the digital edition instead of working around their paywall.
It's much more on the personal impact scale, but I built http://offsettrump.com for trying to get people to make things the tiniest bit better.

So maybe Trump really will make America great again. It's just that he'll do it by being the counterexample which spurs people to action.
Something something entropy
Where were you when Obama, who got elected primarily by people who opposed to the recklessness of Wall St, continued with the Bush bailouts, ordered the murder of thousands via drones, and supported policies that increased the transfer of wealth to the top 1%?
Trump is horrible, but so was Obama...How come all these HN "progressives" did little Obama was screwing the country over?
P.S. I like your site, awesome job!
