Text the word RESIST to 50409.
In case anyone's thinking along similar lines, this is what I just sent to Biden & Congress:
Support Ukraine! Freeze or seize the bank accounts and assets of Putin and Russian oligarchs. Hit them where it hurts - in the pocketbook.
I doubt any truly serious effort of the sort will happen because anything attacking the one percent's money will scare the one percent, and everyone powerful in the US is in the one percent. The Russian oligarchs and US politicians have a hell of a lot more common interests than either of them have with ordinary people in either country. (Certain exceptions excluded, but, well, exceptions.) Still, maybe they'll make some efforts that they think won't endanger their own dirty money and offshore accounts, and maybe that will be helpful.
