My pinned post has the blueprint for how We the People can rescue our country by demanding & achieving a political agenda that serves OUR interests, not the interests of politicians/parties/oligarchs.
I admit that I am most concerned with the possibility that Trump will cancel the midterm elections, especially if it looks like Congress will turn Blue. He has the DOJ, FBI, and Congress to back up any lies about unsecure elections, etc. #WeAreScrewed #ProtectDemocracy #SaveAmerica
He didn't shut down the election. He tried to shut down the certification vote in Congress. And he may well try again if he runs in 2028 and loses -- but he can't shut down elections run by the states.
Treaties torn, allies scorned, aid withdrawn, trust eroding faster than a sandcastle at high tide. Like a drunk after yet another all night bender we awake to sadly realize,
America is no longer part of the solution -we're part of the problem...
Hey Canada and Mexico are you listening? It’s time to build that wall. You can make good money by charging to look at the circus through the peep halls.
https://petebuttigieg.bsky.social Please start a class action suit against Trump/Musk as Raskin described on Sunday. Millions are waiting for a leader and event that will bring us together in force.This would generate huge energy and could be a beginning of the end - our SOLIDARITY! Be our Lech Walesa!
Indeed. Whatever these past four weeks have been it was them testing the waters. Like at the beginning of Jurassic Park. Testing the fences. Looking for the chinks in the armor. If they succeed now we won’t be ready for what’s coming.
I anticipated last year that if the judiciary doesn't get in line, then Trump will get rid of them. Possibly with treason type charges so that the usual impeachment rules can be bent.
Some say the three tiers protect America as if an autocrat cares. I think a rubber stamp judiciary will come.
I'm fine standing back, watching the house burn to the foundation so Dems and progressive Independents can come rebuild the nation, in 4 years, again. Trump thinks he can eliminate democracy and the Constitution, he can't, it'll never happen.

USA once was the country of my dreams. Freedom, liberty, peace. Orange and the MAGAs destroyed everything including the ties with Europe. They are Russian Agents!
All anyone has to do is look at Project 2025 for a roadmap on where we are headed if millions and millions of people across the country rise up to stop it.
The common refrain was they're "misunderstood, joking, etc". Even now when there's tons of evidence that they're serious.
Also, Republicans publish conflicting info, it helps supporters keep the faith because they put pick what they want to believe. It also lets them discredit and confuse.
This is full regime change, and their plan is a white male utopia. If they achieve their goals, hundreds of millions will die, and the Magas/USA will replace the Nazis/Germany as the world's worst international pariah. They can not be allowed to succeed. Do whatever it takes. Literally whatever.
Resist? Haven't we been paying the Democrats to resist for all of us? And, they are not resisting, so what the f'nhemier should the fleeced DNC donors do that the Dems themselves are unwilling to do?
Have you ever been in a real fight and been hit really hard? My experience is that the first couple of punches hurt. From then on adrenaline kicks in and I didn’t feel much until after it was over.
Get in there and throw a few punches.
I’m of course using poetic language.
At this point I am not sure God is listening anymore; perhaps he feels that the only way to get our full undivided attention is to let it all burn to the ground..
IMO, God sees people walked away from Him. He needs to see people support Him, trust Him, before He was act.
On the other hand, God knows the end, the timing. Maybe it doesn't matter if people support Him, except that when God acts, His supporters will be rewarded, others wont.
Wheat/shaff.
This is so true and not only for Americans, true democracy loving countries need to stand up and pay attention, this brand of lunacy could be headed your way real soon if you don't take a stand now. You know how they say when the US sneezes, Europe catches a cold? well replace the cold with Ebola!!
I would argue too that we're no longer fighting for a return to normal. The old normal had the seeds of our current situation already planted in it. We're not fighting for a return to normal. We're fighting for something better now.
My biggest worry is Musk’s Tesla tanks, as well as possible Tesla drones that are possibly armed. They’re clearly planning to invade Canada and Mexico by force. We have to either destroy those vehicles at the source, or prepare for them with stuff that can screw them up.
"Normal" fucking sucked and gave rise to the fascist movement currently making things worse.
Stop this "back to normal" sentiment. Kamala/Pete/Newsom are going to save you, they aren't the solution they are part of the original problem. Demand something BETTER. Demand a post-capitalist world.
People are not getting it.
Everybody is too comfortable in their life. They love their Netflix, Starbucks, scrolling online..
a lot of people are about to have a reality check .. a dangerous one.
It’s about to get very ugly
Yea well when ppl get drowned in ice cold water, trust me, that feeling of comfort is going to dissipate real fast.. it is just a matter of whether it will be too late by that time or not.
I’ve been saying this since 2020.
People are too comfortable to give up their Starbucks and haircuts.
People think reposting memes is “enough” to protest what is occurring in the White House as we speak.
US people were tired of paying too much and dying too soon so they started looting Walmarts and Targets, took bats to Teslas and chargers, cut brake lines on Amazon delivery trucks and were surrounding police stations. 1st night without a nightmare since 1/20/25
For the older folks? Remember 2008? Your 401ks+? Start to move your $$ around or w/d entirely. Take the tax loss now because there will not be an IRS Agency in existence in about a month or less because DOGE will steal it. Put all your cash on hand under your mattress just like Mr. Joe Dimaggio did.
I bought 3 dozen eggs a month ago. You can freeze them. Crack them, put them in a cupcake tin or ice tray. They suck to get out but they do come out with some work. Then place in a freezer bag. They’ll keep for 4-5 months and I will use for cooking/baking.
With the shutdown of NIH, CDC, and FDA public information sources and data release to Health and Medical research teams, we may never know about the next pandemic until a neighbor or family member dies.
Keep learning about effects of Bird Flu. So far millions of egg layers killed, raising prices. But lurking soon will be its spread to cattle, people. AND INCOMPETENTS running our PUBLIC HEALTH system!
My wife was one of them. About 6 months prior to our 20th anniversary. 5 days after her birthday. This shit is FUCKING personal!

I'm terrified.
So many rely on those meals, on SNAP, Medicaid etc.
If my Social Security disappears I'll be living in my car. Probably not, I have family but how many people don't?

Persist and resist together.
Resist away! 🤣
*Those* are the slaves.
We're just in the way.
And like anything broken, we may be able to glue it back together, but it will never look the same or act the same.
We lost part of humanity and decency forever.
America is no longer part of the solution -we're part of the problem...
Our pain is the point, hurting the 80% until they capitulate and give the parasite class total monarchical control is the goal.
They want to undo everything the founding fathers did and spit on everything our veterans died for.
We need fear based in reality, and the anger that comes with it.
This fight is personal. We have to make it feel like it.
Some say the three tiers protect America as if an autocrat cares. I think a rubber stamp judiciary will come.
As their damage will take decades to fix, if at all.
This is a scorched earth plan to start at year zero. It’s not going to all go back to normal in 4 years.

Just sayin'
I am exasperated by those who say we are overreacting. WTF?
Also, Republicans publish conflicting info, it helps supporters keep the faith because they put pick what they want to believe. It also lets them discredit and confuse.
Next for me was plugging in to volunteer and resistance groups & talking to anyone I can about doing more, with more people.
Now, I bring people to protests, building toward the general strike.
I hope something here is helpful.
Get in there and throw a few punches.
I’m of course using poetic language.
For now at least.
It's gonna get real and this old lady will not sit back and watch.
Maybe it's time to get get on your knees and pray and support God.
On the other hand, God knows the end, the timing. Maybe it doesn't matter if people support Him, except that when God acts, His supporters will be rewarded, others wont.

Gonna bank me some trickle down
Yeah …. Trickle Down

YOU AIN'T SEEN NOTHING YET!!!
You would reach more people, when you add a good description into the Alt-text field.
That is pretty easy, especially, when your image just contain text.
This way, you support visually impaired people and everyone else, who rely on a good filled Alt-text.

South Koreans know how to protest!
I tutored a couple students in public school in Arkansas that were in the free meal program. They were still hungry, it’s gonna get real bad now!
