Musk knows how to play that game. He saw it in South Africa.

Will this be Donald's next step with Canada? Navarro has said Canada has been infiltrated by Mexico cartels. Why?

My god, I'm really afraid we're all going to hang together. Those of us who are critical and reasonable thinkers warned this would happen. Now, as Goering put it, we are being dragged along against our will. I'm so frightened.

Do we have "leaders"?

I wake up exhausted & worried everyday. Every day there is a new horrifying executive order. We have 1415 days left of this lunatic’s presidency. I’m 100% convinced that our country won’t survive. I’m just as convinced that after 1415 days he won’t leave office. And republicans will let it happen.

Do we continue to fight utilizing legal channels and knowing they will get nothing accomplished, if the opposition has zero respect for rules?

The question that demands some very serious thought:

Knowing what we know of fascist rule, how far are we willing to go?

No need to get upset. There will be uncertainty, but it will work itself out. A little pain to get through before the kill.

So what position it’s Trump giving this Goering fellow? I assume he’s one of the Project 2025 alums.

"All you have to do is tell them they're being attacked..."
I would like to imagine that today, with our enhanced ability to get nearly immediate news reports & LIVE Video, we wouldn't be as susceptible to being "dragged along". 😢 Unfortunately, not the case.🫣😵
