This is awesome! Well said, no matter your political, we should all support the rule of law.

Edit suggestion for your first sentence: replace the word administration with the word regime

rojorurba002.bsky.social•11 days ago

I will not obey this fascist regime!

oand007.bsky.social•11 days ago

You should hear what Americans are already saying amongst ourselves. A wave is coming.

From Sunday's newspaper:

dantansky.bsky.social•11 days ago

It took decades but it’s
happening.

We are destroyed without our rule of law.

Not a single bullet used.

opiniongirl.bsky.social•11 days ago

I’m sorry, but that in itself is a capitulation. All the stuff about being strong & there for each other does not matter a whit as our democracy is being destroyed from within. Where is the dang plan? The action steps? We need to move & move fast, but there is no leadership anywhere I can see. Help!

Really need to yell the obvious parts now, don't we.

julie3500.bsky.social•11 days ago

I will not obey!
I will fight every step of the way!
Never give up!

If the Repugnicans are going to, "Flood the Zone with 💩" then Progressives must be prepared to open their own floodgates to legal challenges. Bog Trump and his Fascist co-conspirators in court, slow down the administration of his orders, and dissent on the streets for the next four years.

jeffroushwriting.bsky.social•11 days ago

Yes. That process is well underway, but we can’t let up.

natecochrane.bsky.social•11 days ago

It’s a marathon; not a sprint. And there are allies all around the world. Americans don’t have to feel they’re alone. What the US does impacts the rest of the world just as much as it does you.

I’m pumped up seeing people around the country showing up and fighting back. It’s powerful and growing daily. Resist fascism

boldbluebunny.bsky.social•11 days ago

I will not obey… In advance or ever.

lilithjade.com•11 days ago

Me neither. I'm fighting like hell.

kanga38.bsky.social•11 days ago

I'd like to complain about JD Vance to the bar association. For threatening to not adhere to the constitution or rule of law. There'll be more complaints to follow.

letthemeatbrioche.bsky.social•11 days ago

Men and women have died so we would have the Constitutional right to decide how we our governed. We the people of the United States of America must defend the rights of all Americans and fairness of justice & law! Nobody is above the law! The DOD&DOJ need to do their jobs!

#TRAITOR #TREASON

letthemeatbrioche.bsky.social•11 days ago

We have to fight their tyranny and CANNOT give up! This is not the United States we love! If we do not stand up for our rights and fairness in justice and the rule of law then we have no right to call ourselves Americans. People will DIE if we do not fight this! We owe it to future generations!

Breaking and burning it all down on purpose. What an effective way to bolster your argument that government is the problem, that politicians can never be trusted. Ever.

goodjuju1010.bsky.social•11 days ago

Very concered...just tired of the same ole shit...and all I hear is talk and no action

jeffroushwriting.bsky.social•11 days ago

There is a lot of action under the talk right now. And we need to keep generating more.

goodjuju1010.bsky.social•11 days ago

Do tell!

jeffroushwriting.bsky.social•11 days ago

This is a decent running tab on the lawsuits. The political pressures are a little harder to see, but they are there too. It all matters right now.

But how much of the #ABA are also #FederalistSociety and #HeritageFoundation members ⁉️

jeffroushwriting.bsky.social•11 days ago

Almost certainly some. But the organization and many of its members are pushing back against this.
