Too late. Joe Biden has invited Orange Foolius to tea at the White House and can’t wait to hand over the keys to the kingdom. Our Democratic Party is doing absolutely nothing. @dncjaimeharrison.bsky.social
You have $7.31 for the pocket paperback! If a Resister in the Resistance you must know what Dictators and Authoritarians do to seize more power and take more Freedoms!

After the last few years on X, I was hoping never to see the word “tyranny” again. I’m so sick of Americans - who have NEVER known a day’s actual oppression - talking about tyranny.
What can they do at this point. We’re getting sucked into the shiny object syndrome just as we did in his first term. He’s trolling us and succeeding in provoking outrage. We can’t react hair on fire to everything.
Remember Sean Connery "The Untouchables"? What he says to Ness? "What are you prepared to do? And then what are you going to do?" It's all very easy to say, "oh, I'm not going to kiss the ring up front ", but what are we prepared to actually DO?
The answer is, I'm in the process of divorcing my MAGA wife, getting house ready for sale (and am over 1000 miles away from DC). Also, this march is actually called the "People's March" and has 5 groups participating. I've signed up to march with the Woman's group, scheduled for 1/18
@morningjoe-msnbc.bsky.social and @mika-brzezinski kissed Trump’s ass like all R traitors to America did. Exactly the opposite of what was right. Cowards who only worry about themselves. Despicable behaviour.
Oh they're already at it! You have all the big accounts in trump complaints mode, and yet, not one mentions anything about stopping him or demanding an investigation or even a recount!, its sickening!
Don’t believe your lying eyes. Trump’s mask is off and his dystopian fascist reality is taking shape. There are disaffected Magalites getting disillusioned every passing day. Help them onward to join the pro-Democracy coalition and turn it into a supermajority-this is how you turn the tides blue. 💙🌊
Ask not what your country can do for you -ask what you can do for your country. When “We the People” stand United, under the hallowed banners of liberty, equality and justice for all and fight “BIGLY”, we will not only prevail, but we will WIN to let freedom ring loud, clear and blue. LFG! 💙💙🌊🌊
It’s FAFO time for them- they are starting to feel distraught, insecure and panicked-this is the opportune time to “demagafy.” This way when Mango Mussolini tries to sing his pied-piper song again,(he will) they will not only be immune/but will vociferously reject his mesmerizing beckoning call.
Just roll up the “truth” newspapers NOW and smack them around mercilessly and we won’t go back!! We have until 1/20/2025” where “We the People” have immense power to change the course of our collective manifest destinies. When we fight “BIGLY” we will not only prevail, but we will win!

Strong 🦻HEARtS💙💙 Clear eyes👀. It ain’t over until the fat Orange convict singsings on 1/20/2025! We are not going back! Divide-conquer and convert the MA.GA.
I have heard repeated warnings about this, obeying in advance, but I genuinely struggle in a democracy where the people voted, with what to do in the meantime, especially on the local scale. I don’t like the term “not my president”, because that undermines democracy as well.
Well, I do think there was a lot of advance preparation for those who what to defend democracy and democratic values. Democracy Docket is just one of them, but there are many, many others. I mean, it's almost like the Left had it's own Project 2025 going. It helped that the other told them...
This country is a no obeying zone.
What makes non-obeyers like RedHats think for one minute that they will be able to force anyone to do anything?
RedHats don’t understand and never will.
You can get a copy of Snyder's book, " On Tyranny" for $7 on Amazon. Yes, I know it's Amazon, but for that price, you should get your own copy. It's a small, brief book with just the basics you need. Take time to ponder each step as you read it and decide what steps you have seen already.
Decided I need to read the entire thing so I just picked up a copy. Ya, a little late, but it wouldn't change my feelings about what just won the election on 11/5. Suffice it to say, it was NOT for I voted for. Still sad that Kamala won't be taking office.
public fell for the con from the convicted felon. They're about to find out just what they voted for. The rest of us, well, we'll just be standing up to whatever BS he tries to pull, which is beginning with his cabinet choices.
Saw a post yesterday where a fella asked if people understood that resistance means they’ll kill us. My thinking is well, yes, that’s exactly what I plan to do. If my last act is protecting someone from tyranny, then my death will be worth it.
* Believe the autocrat. He means what he says. Whenever you find yourself thinking that he is exaggerating, that is our innate tendency to reach for a rationalization.
* Do not be taken in by small signs of normality.
* Institutions will not save you (continued)
We do not roll over and obey the winner who wins by 1.5% of votes we start petitions removing corrupt politicians from office the next day and each requires 50,000 signatures to cause them to have a new election.
Give them ulcers.
Force re run election.
Sign, create options to recall elected members

If you don't obey in advance, they will use commands.
If you don't obey commands, you will lose your job and you may not find a new one.
Later they will use physical punishment as well, if you don't obey.
That's dictatorship and that's what Trump wants.

Do what you can!

Let's see how strong you are when they are pounding at your door...screwing with your business and income...
Our leaders failed us and why we are here...

Acts of resistance can be large or small. What matters is that we act!

Don't feed them, don't clothe them. Don't fuel their trucks, don't build their camps.
They can't make you be fascist with them. 😡
