Not exaggerating when I say that the path back is going to be built on people in positions of influence regaining their sense of self-respect.

It seems like it would throw a bigger spanner in their works to just say "No" and then loudly talk to the press about it.

If you're looking for performative, self-serving antics...look no farther than the current regime.
You might have an impact for , like, a day or two...
Really revolutionary stuff...😁
I'm just a guy in Australia who's trying to do my part, are you not compelled to protest this treasonous bs???
You know you won't be working there anyway - make the public understand why.
I would think that being fired for having sound principles widely communicated in the press would also accomplish this.
This gets the actual prosecutors words and reasons out.
No avoiding it like rich people usually do. No kicking it into the long grass. Justice needs to be seen to be done.
It's a gangster administration, and it needs to be treated as such.
Why are pretending this was such an honorable thing?? Its cowardly.. its running..
They voting public should NEVER trust ANY of them EVER again.
Unfortunately, the Power to VOTE is FAILING US.
THE SOLUTION is up to the POWER of the self-respecting non-republicans. We The People WILL prevail and FIGHT this TRUMP/MUSK MENACE.
All this does is save him the trouble of firing her before filling her position with a loyalist
So the difference is the public message a resignation sends. “I’d rather resign publicly than act THAT unethically.”
This is why we resign in protest and resist getting fired.
I wonder what’s in that case file
Drop the charges on one man, round up 10's of thousand (if not millions) of criminals.
It's a solid deal
And while I see and celebrate courage in isolated incidents, what I see overall is careerism uber alles. Can that alone save democracy? No.
In the past it would have been 40 years. Things change a lot faster now, about a ten year cycle for what would have previously been a fifty year cycle. Courage is contagious and it's going to take Trump a few more losses...
We just have to fight it and not give up
They can take over the floor of Congress. Not vote on anything.
His picks were going through anyway...so why not refuse to even entertain them.
They know how to impeach.
They are able to arrest.
They have to step up!
Dems have to find a way!
A senior Trump official awarded *himself* a $400 million no-bid contract and that isn't even the biggest scandal *this week!*
“I have always considered it my obligation to pursue justice impartially, without favor to the wealthy or those who occupy important public office, or harsher treatment for the less powerful,”

Thank you for your service and COURAGE!!
"Your white feather, sir."
Also, disrupt the economy on Feb 28! Pass it on.
This is the type of messaging we need.
Thoughts and prayers might even actually work in this case.
I'm trying it, anyway.
Someone remind that gaslit sycophant that she is the PEOPLE’S LAWYER, not personal legal counsel for #FelonTrump
We NEED people like this in government positions.
No.
It is HISTORY.
IT SHOULD INFLAME.
We are not different. We are not special.

It is a still taken from the video of the Liberation of the Hurlach Concentration Camp.
It is a reminder that we all will face the same consequence.
IT'S TIME FOR ACTION FROM THE STREET LEVEL!!!
Don't get me wrong, that's utter bullshit! but not what the meme indicated.
These good people are losing their careers because she won't act. Her cowardice is as damaging as his corruption at this point.
The Rule of Law is not a partisan issue, and without it, a democracy will crumble.
America had a good run. It's fucking over.
It takes REAL patriotism to tell the commander in chief NO when they're doing things wrongly.
It may not be Normandy beaches, but in 2025 they're fighting a new kind of war.
I’ve never seen anything more pathetic than the Dems in Congress. They couldn’t care less about any of us, they’re happy getting their checks and making insider stock trades while shutting down anyone who vaguely *might* threaten their gerontocracy.
🤔
Are you sure you aren't a bot?
Republican propagandist maybe?
Are the Dems sucking? Yeah, kinda, but that is the LEAST of the problems.
