Resistance to Trump's despotism is growing...and it's working. Earlier this week, Team Big Picture talked with California’s Attorney General Rob Bonta about the important work he's doing to resist Trump in the courts.

WE MUST BAN META AND X, AND INCRIMINATE MUSK AND ZUCKERBERG
It's unclear, imho. Some funding has been restored, got instance. The DoJ is at least pretending to listen. Is it just pretending or is the whole admin so chaotic that it's hard to fix things and know what's going on?
Maybe some groups want to comply and some (like Musk) don't.
Oh, yeah. The law is working great to reign Trump in. Except that he's ignoring any court orders he doesn't like with the DoJ's blessing and a SCOTUS that says he's above the law. Also, he posted this:
In a few weeks, the judicial system will be fully dismantled, I can’t find the logic on pursuing the legal path to resist an unleashed criminal who completely ignores the law, where are we going with this? Let’s change the mindset, how about we organize a counterrevolution ignoring the laws?
Something that few people are talking about is that ALL of our national security agencies are just watching this unfold. That's what has me worried. As an American taxpayer I'm not happy that the CIA, NSA and FBI have gone missing and silent. Paranoia is believing that's on purpose.
In the courts? So what? SCOTUS has given Trump emperor status. The courts are irrelevant. All any of them will do is ignore anything any court anywhere, in any state, in any jurisdiction says. And then what? Buy guns and ammo, ‘cause you’re gonna need ‘em.
Unfortunately wether he speaks for all of you doesn’t matter
It has the same effect on us
Your constitution has pretty big holes in it that allow him to wreck havoc on the rest of the world
I don't doubt you aren't, the island and it's smaller islands are full of aging hippies and ancient peoples, or were. But to be honest I have to see what I posted to know what you are talking about.
It's not worry it's concerned politeness; a desire to understand a possibly unintended slight, a potential knee jerk remnant of bad habit picked up on those sites that shall forever remain nameless, faceless.
HE'S GOING TO IGNORE THE COURTS. HE'S HITLER & HITLER TOOK OVER A COUNTRY WITH A MINORTY PARTY. DEMOCRATS MUST HAUL EVERY MILITARY LEADER BEFORE CONGRESS & ENSURE THEY WILL DISOBEY ANY ILLEGAL ORDERS FROM DONALD TRUMP. IT'S NO LONGER HYPOTHETICAL: LARDASS WILL NOT STOP UNTIL HE'S HORIZONTAL.
Thank you for creating it! It's such a poignant twist on the iconic imagery (and protest). It is sorely needed here in the US. Thank you for your art. Please don't stop.
If you want democracy and protect it Fokking get out and PROTEST.
Freedom is more easily lost than won.
Democracy did not come into existence with peaceful demonstrations.
Civil disobedience, Civil war.
Europe has seen many episodes to install and protect democracy.
Repost and spread the word.
That’s why I am not celebrating court wins. Too little, too late, and they won’t be enforced by the US Marshals if the White House says it won’t comply with the court orders or the law.
Same. 100% same. It blows my mind people get so excited about more court filings. Felons don’t obey the law so, uh, what good is it going to do? Billionaires don’t obey the laws because they don’t pertain to them. I’m not saying stop filing things in court. I’m just saying nothing will come from it
Super weak that a spoiled brat rich tech guy not even from the USA can come here and dictate to all 335 million Americans how they need to live or what they can do or not do. Unbelievable
I wrote my FL Representative, Anna Paulina Luna, and my FL Senator, Rick Scott. I asked them to do their jobs, and call up the military to oust Musk and his muskrats out of our govt.
I wrote FL's Atty General and told him to stop our personal data from being exposed.
WRITE. CALL. HOUND THEM!
Thanks! I'm looking at non-food too, eg Procter & Gamble brands. I try to buy local when I can anyway, but am researching manufacturers to make sure I don't inadvertently buy US.
Doesn't matter. The question was asked: what if Trump doesn't obey the courts? He owns the courts. We're on the road to "Constitutional Crisis" or, the collapse of our government. He wins.
Way way too early to give up! Check your local Democracy now site...or Indivisible site. Both are involved in helping coordinate state and cross state protests, as well marketing and publishing results. Lots of activities to get involved in AND a fighting community to be involved in!
Unfortunately Bonya is doing nothing. He had the chance to remove from ballots all the Jan 6 supporting Republican House candidates & he chose to do nothing.

The courts will not save us.

Cause if we have to send the military to Washington to restore order, that's what he's looking at.
US is becoming
NorthKoreanized.
