The history of the present King of ̶G̶r̶e̶a̶t̶ ̶B̶r̶i̶t̶a̶i̶n̶ ̶ America is a history of repeated injuries and usurpations, all having in direct object the establishment of an absolute Tyranny over these States.
King of MAKE BELIEVE - no beauty there. NO HAPPY ENDINGS…
However, there is a REAL HOWEVER & it’s YOU & 🚫 TRUMP. We have the real power for our happy ending... WE CAN ALL FIGHT THE GOOD FIGHT… start now. MAKE THE ☎️
202-224-3121 - straight to CAPITOL HILL SWITCHBOARD & ur CONGRESS. MAKE THE CALL ☎️
Imagine Lincoln, having heard his soldiers had been defeated at Bull Run in July of 1861. At that point, he knew the thing would not be over in 90 days...or that he would die immediately following the end of it.
Thank you. Find community where you can and do what you can. And take note…food banks that Sept on USDA grants, etc., will suffer greatly as need grows 😢😢😢😢
Volunteering at them will help offset costs and you will be “in community”.
None of this would be happening at all, if the American Justice system would apply the law to the affluent in the same way they apply it to the poor. We are all being forced to reap, what injustice has sown.
right. and when we are free of him, we need to focus on getting our country back, and better, than what it was before turd. NO opinions, articles, opeds, theses, analysis, etc. of turd and his evil and why it went wrong.
We Democrats have rightly focused on truth, facts, and the law since DJT first descended that escalator. Maybe instead prioritize educating the public that republicans are engaged in a disinfo op exactly as was done wrt Brexit.
I don’t think NATO has an account on here. My mistake using their xtwitter ID.
See, that’s why leaving the other place is effective to silence the truth. Yes, the bots are terrible over there. True that Elon is suppressing Dem accounts.
Lawyers need to shut the fuck up because the judicial system failed us. Judge Juan Merchan is a traitorous bribe taking criminal. Trump should have been in prison and merchant sucked Trump’s dick.
I do but how do you fix the brainwashed? I don't see a solution. I think Biden had an opportunity to do that and missed it. Now the propaganda is even worse.
There is no leader. Jeffries and Schumer are worthless. Someone has to step up and lead the resistance. I don't know who that leader will be but they need to reveal themselves soon.
GOP power is a mirage. Nobody votes for them. The decades old voting machines hacked by their comrades all over the country put them in power. The computer scientists have proved this in Las Vegas every year Georgia was the worst until they put the paper trail machines in. Look what happened!
I think you’re in denial about what is happening. You will not be able to turn this around in a year. If this turns into a long slog then it means too many people have succumbed to fear. It’s now or never.
Civilian & military leaders, who have sworn an oath to "support and defend the Constitution of the United States against all enemies, foreign and domestic,” must mount a decisive pro-democracy, pro-rule-of-law intervention. NOW!
They must arrest & charge Trump and his regime with treason. NOW!
Where is "Deep Throat"we need her or him? No American Bank would loan Trump money 2 keep his business afloat. Russian Banks&Oligarchs loaned him$Putin has "Kompromadt"on himRussian FSB&Computer Hackers2x helped Trump win setting up"Astroturf"Groups,laundering moneyThruFacebook&the NRA&disinformation
End ALL discretionary spending now. The Dow is the only thing that moves Trump/GOP. 2/3 of all US economic activity is consumer spending. Gives blue states an equal voice. Can’t fire/arrest/dox you for not spending. Wartime rationing to save democracy. Our savings will be our war chest #stopthespend
Look at the people of Ukraine. They are not giving up. They are witnessing horrors. They are still fighting. On top of all that Hell they have to fight OUR PRESIDENT. I think we 🇺🇸can have the strength to NOT GIVE UP OR GIVE IN! We are fighting in comfort. They are in rubble. Chin up BLUE.
RISE🔥✊🏽
Settling in for a marathon sounds like a nice sentiment. The problem is that Musk is sprinting and his servants are sprinting. We are being left behind by using archaic tactics and messaging.
The fight is long and hard, but I’m energized. We must organize and mobilize. We support each other because “We the people” have a voice and we will be heard.
What they have destroyed in a month might take decades to repair. Sad. But you know what? We are Sisyphus and life is the daily process of rolling the rock back up the steep hill. So, fuck ‘em and keep on pushing that boulder. Our value might be in the defiant act of rolling, not the destination.
One thing is certain, once the 🟠💩 is dead, impeached or deposed, it is going to take a LOT of hard work to remove the shit stain from the White House and the Presidency.
It will be quicker if judges would interpret the pleas of plaintiffs against the despot's actions as being a clear and present danger. They are making plaintiffs prove harm. Clearly, there will be catastrophic harm if the despot is allowed to remain unfettered. Judges SHOULD be part of our hope.
Joyce, we don't have the luxury of time. We either FIGHT RIGHT NOW
or hand it all over. We will be forced to camps just for being democrats. So, shut up a out the marathon. This is a sprint and whoever wins this round sets the PRECEDENT
🎯You KNOW! Most ppl, still don't have any idea what's in store. I read "Mandate for Leadership" 20 years ago, on the GOP platform website. I warned ppl then, of course we were on the drip, drip schedule to fascism until Trump entered the scene they thought they could control him. Putin compromised
2/ Trump decades ago, back in the 80s. He was still KGB and caught wind of Trump because of Trumps crooked deals in real estate, especially in Miami. Putin studied him. I was navy intel during the 80s, we were warned then how Russia tries compromising Americans, especially military. Commonly
3/ revolves around money...of course. Trump was the perfect mark and once Apprentice became a thing, everything points to Trump 'becoming' the tycoon billionaire businessman Mark Burnett made a fortune. He's got tapes and it's time to show the American public. Perhaps @anonymous can help us here.
4/ Trump BECAME the Apprentice persona, which was nowhere near the truth. His dad had bailed him out of bankrupting the casinos. Fred's dementia must've started setting in by then bc, as Suzanne Craig & co-author (?) reported in "Lucky Loser: How Donald Trump Squandered His Father's Fortune and
5/ ....Created an Illusion of Success," Trump repeatedly & publicly boasted about one new acquisition after another. He'd talk up all the glitz and glamor of his new project, and mixed use, with shopping and condos. The views - he'd create an image in his mind and exploit it as being the best,
You are correct. Democrats sitting around with fingers crossed, spouting quant democracy laden soliloquies, hoping they don't have to really risk anything to find the comfort they used to enjoy.
we have been fighting to keep our republic for 249 years. the problem is this is different. like if hitler were in america instead of germany in 1938. we handled it, but it wasnt here. it was there. we need to do here what we did there i recon. buckle up buttercup
Can we, Americans, as injured party, nusance sue FOX news....them having settled once before, therefore put on notice...for continuing to lie...in one egregious example...having to do with Ukraine...making world less safe.
It's more like 8 marathons over the course of a single week with a wannabe dictator, a drug-addled psychopath and his crew of Lost Boys, and a completely impotent Congress loaded with some of the most sycophantic cretins on the planet.
A real problem here remains "leadership". Many I know are very very down on the weakness and old, ineffective, tactics and messaging from Democrats that we continue to see. It's feeling like a party with no future quite honestly.
the people cheering shackled deportations

Well… the longer this goes on the more entrenched it becomes. Once the regime has solidified all its people in powerful positions - very difficult to imagine a way out. Hoping for fair midterms and future elections is tragically naive. The rule of law will not hold - history tells that story.
Trump has been trained over the last 20 years in his relationship with Putin in business deals and the beauty pageant.
He wants what Putin has.
Read how Putin got it, as it looks very similar to what’s happening now in America.
IDK- I resent what little time is left, that I am once again fighting fights I already fought. I have a grandchild, I guess I have to keep fighting. So hard to find balance.
I agree that sadly it will be a long haul to a return to normalcy. However, it's a 5-alarm fire with musk and his boys. I hope some of the alarming things happening can be stopped quickly and prevented before they happen again. Settling in for a long haul seems like a cousin to passively accepting.
I hope that this time we eradicate the GOP/Republican party. It's not a democratic party & our democracy will never fully recover as long as they have any opportunity to take over again. Granted, they'll just form a new party. But it takes time to do that vs being fully prepared & organized
Truth. No one decided we should be free of Tyranny and everyone on both sides said, "Okay, that's good enough." We had to fight lengthy wars, and lose our lives, to defend our positions. Nothing happens instantly and not giving up in the face of struggle is a key component. Thanks Joyce!
The thing this gets the most wrong is that there is a finish line. When democracy is flourishing is often when it is most vulnerable because of the mistaken beliefs that it stretches into an eternally furture, that it is the default and once had cannot be lost.
Fuck.
I don’t was to wait 12 years to get the ver the shit MAGAts got us in.
12 years is how long it took for Hitler to destroy the world and put a bullet to his head.
Fuck MAGAts.
Some of us will have the fortune of reading the orange poodle's obituary, but in the meantime, we need a charismatic leader to rise from the ashes to destroy Trumpism and Muskism and get us back to where America is respected, and not hated by everyone other than the Putins of the world.
History taught us that violence occurs while social and technological disruptions happen.

No kidding. Trump has been chipping away at democracy for 10 years now. When is his old man body going to stop functioning. Can’t happen soon enough. We need him off the planet
Exactly. If it helps people who feel overwhelmed, consider the marathon a relay instead - bring your talents, abilities, and resources to this relay, no matter how small, to get the team across the finish line.
Yes, as much as we want to deny it, this plan (project 2025) has been developing for decades. The architects just needed a brainwashed populace committed to a brainless leader who had no morals and, of course, a sociopathic billionaire to usher it in.
Saw a post a while back that stated "It's a relay, not a marathon." Burnout will be real. Lean into your community. Eat snacks. Take breaks. Love your friends. Live a life worth fighting for!
Thank you, Joyce, for this critical message. Our addition to your list: high school voter registration. Teens are eligible to register to vote BEFORE they turn 18, making high schools the time and place to get it done. The power of preregistration: https://thecivicscenter.substack.com/p/preregistration-is-power
I need to remind everyone that even as we scream for justice, we will have to be willing to take the pain of actually getting it. There is no way around the pain that we will suffer. Take the hit, keep your eyes on the goal. 💪🇺🇲🤓
Believe in second chances. @gayforcongress.bsky.social ... @joshweil.bsky.social .,Democrats from Florida, @blakegendebien.bsky.social New York 21, Stefanik's seat.. Donate to them, $support them, repost everything they post. Get their names onto everyone's feed. Democrats can retake the House!!
@joshweil.bsky.social , do the three of you plan to do a virtual town hall session together? Or any of you, for that matter? So we can get the word out? Are you reaching out to Meidas, PodSaveAmerica, and the other freedom podcasters?
Blake is in NY, and that election is on hold for now. Whatever they do, they need money to do it and the billionaires know full well how important these seats are. Anything help$
Wish I COULD vote..California girl here. I see all of your emails, some of your posts..hopefully you're getting some TV time locally. Are you on Threads?
It’s like a bad cancer. Eliminating it with the pretense that it may return. Now it has returned and we must drive it back.
Also, we don’t look backwards and mourn ourselves endlessly. We grieve, and we move forward.
Some use the term new normal. Not my preference. No such thing as normal.
I don't accept this as either normal or new normal. You are correct it's exactly like a cancer that requires not only complete eradication but also ongoing vigilance to keep it from recurring.
We need to embrace what is being done wrong, and campaign on what we (Dems) are going to do right for ALL of America! Don’t campaign in 2026/2028 in the rear view mirror!
Seniors, our wake up mornings may be FAR ( I hope) & FEW ( hope longer), but regardless we are the voices of wisdom. IF YOU HAD THAT SENIOR MOMENT & BELIEVED THE GOLDEN GOOSE (who is tarnished orange, beneath the FAKE gold paint), we forgive you💙. COME on HOME-where FREEDOM RINGS. OUR AMERICA🇺🇸 🚫😡🚫
Imagine voting for MAGA and having Donald Trump take away your benefits, entitlements, and right, because you got tired of seeing social media posts with the words "Black Girl Magic".
Which is what we should have done in 2020. Instead we collectively sighed and just went about business as if this was just a blip. That's how we find ourselves here now
I'm hopeful they are sowing the seeds of their own destruction. A movement this extreme is ultimately doomed. My biggest fear is that future Trump Supreme Court appointments will shape the country for generations.
Trump and his MAGA cult are a great example to the world that the fight for liberal democracy around the globe is a constant effort against forces both dark and sinister. We never thought it would happen, that America would never abandon it's quest for equality under the law, but here we are.
Part is critical thinking. Thereby knowing comments by Trump fit the exact definition of gas lighting. A powerful psychological trauma inflicted on Zelenskyy, Ukraine and Europe.
Yeah, a long, slow, hard fight sounds the opposite of what will succeed. Once the Dark MAGA technogarchy is fully entrenched, they'll have absolute control over finance, the economy, legal system, law enforcement, transportation, commerce, property rights, bodily autonomy... Almost too late already
It has long been my belief that Putin has been grooming Trump to be his asset for decades. Trump has exceeded all of his nefarious expectations. Can we call it what it is please.
One thing I firmly believe is that collaborators & obfuscators shouldn’t be welcome in polite society when this is all sorted through, as difficult/awkward as that might be in some cases. People like Chuck Todd have been jeered for happily bothsidesing, but Katy Tur is still cheerily chugging along.

If we work tirelessly, and if we are fortunate, we'll have the right and the responsibility of the re-institution of the Constitution.

Treasonous judge Juan Merchan gave Trump I get out of jail free card. The son of a bitch is one of the best judges money can buy.

It won't be enough to defeat Trump's lackeys at the ballot box in the next ew elections.
Trumpism must be hunted down, rooted out, & wiped off the face of the Earth, in ways that will ring out for a hundred years or more.

Create Blue State auxiliary positions in veterans services, environmental protection, health care, inspections, bio science, etc.
Put together a sworn FBI, US Atty, IRS aux in every state to investigate Trump violations of their laws. Blue Force!

Supremacists believe that "We the People" should not include the poor or other races.
Why has supremacist ideologies been ignored as the cause?
