In one of Bannon's first interviews right before Rump's first term is said he was using Rump as a vehicle to get his message out, kind of like the villain who explains his plan right before the hero finishes him off. I'm still waiting for that hero.
“The so-called ‘Department of Government Efficiency,’” or DOGE, led by Musk and his cronies, is working its way through the federal government like malware.” -- Senator Tim Kaine
What I do is continuously contact my representatives, both federal and state, to express my opinions on what's going on and what they might (or might not) be doing about it. I give $ judiciously, but I donate to candidates individually for the most part. I used to give to the DNC, but not lately.
I am wondering if there is a "what you need to protect your mental health this week against the batsheit that is going to happen this week 1. Chocolate 2. Patience 3. Crayon coloring book for 15 minutes a day 4. Your favorite juice..."
Symbolic: Trump has ordered to ceasing of distributing new pennies to Americans. But he now has displayed a big penny on his credenza behind Resolute Desk in the Oval Office.
Strategy question for @joycewhitevance.bsky.social: could states pursue criminal charges against Musk and individual members of DOGE? If there were warrants for their arrest and they faced trials in Maine, California, etc, it seems like that would keep them out of federal IT systems for a while?
Surely SOME republicans understand if you let Trump ignore and violate the rule of law we have no democratic government. We have a dictatorship. And republican representatives will be accountable for it.
The ongoing discourse continues to effectively point out what is happening & what should be happening. But when 47 decides to ignore the court, what then? We need experts to go to the darkest place possible, because that's where 47 is willing to go. Plan for the worst and hope for the best. Help us.
