Future or fiction? #Jericho

Honestly, he has no power to do this. Yes, the VP is on the board, but there are 17 other people that are mandated by congress to run the Smithsonian. Why do we give his feckless EOs any airplay? Quit obeying. Quit obeying unenforceable orders.

cute. you still think courts will save the US ?
Trump/Musk fascists wont care what courts will say.

If courts can’t control this freak then civil war it is

It would be the worst of all possibilities, but the only one against the insane who are followed by crazy people.

salz.bsky.social•3 days ago

True.

yvesinthecity.bsky.social•3 days ago

Save it all as much as you can- back up copies or storage before he destroys it. Single worst thing to humanity was Donald J Trump. Destroy everything beautiful. Destroy happiness and hope. Destroy truth.

Straight up fascism

frausofa.bsky.social•3 days ago

The whole thing resembles the National Socialist cultural policy under Hitler!

If you work at a museum, would you consider borrowing some of our art for an exhibition to protect it? Thanks

Time for any institution with state funding to backup their shit.

Enough talk. Do something about it, already!

Control all government institutions ✔️
Purge the armed forces ✔️
Control the media ✔️
Blame foreigners ✔️
Create fear✔️
Expansionist foreign policy ✔️
Eliminate cultural opposition ✔️
Lie ✔️

If it walks and talks like a fascist, chances are it is a fascist

Fascists be facistin'

Is this the death of America? Seriously at this point what are we doing? Are we headed towards a civil war because I am not about to live in a country that is ripping apart the constitution. I swore an oath and I am getting spit on. Can someone tell me what is the next likely step?

joemuff.bsky.social•2 days ago

Nonviolent resistance! Start a demonstration every Monday shouting: „we are the people“! In a democracy, state power emanates from the people. #resist #3e #usprotests https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Nonviolent_resistance?wprov=sfti1#

aahrens430.bsky.social•3 days ago

This is utterly ridiculous. What are these people afraid of? Honestly, what? (rhetorical question, of course) Those museums are national treasures and we should be bursting with pride for the work they've done, work that calls us to be better people.

queenofbabble.bsky.social•3 days ago

He wants to remake it in the image of whiteness.

jackinec.bsky.social•3 days ago

Trump doesn't think all of history is anti-America.

He knows American history is anti-MAGA and against its philosphy. We literally fought a World War to stop his brand of fascism, and Trump thinks he can erase that victory from our memory.

regshoe.bsky.social•2 days ago

It is called „Gleichschaltung“. Established 1933 in Germany. Deportation to camps is also happening. Expansionist foreign policy too. Some kind of Hitler-Stalin-Pact is tearing Ukraine apart.
Americans, if you tolerate this your children will be next. First their minds then their bodies.

This is What Happens!
90 years ago and today.
And in all this time it is always the one white man problem:

This is a distraction so we stop talking about signalgate

snavar.bsky.social•3 days ago

This EO itself is pure ideology and anti-American to boot

christine-lee.bsky.social•3 days ago

What is anti-American ideology anyway? The Smithsonian is an internationally respected archive and resource. As a UK publishing professional, who has accessed Smithsonian files many times, I find this disturbing. What does this mean? Just Ronald McDonald gifs and MAGA logos from now on?

Fascist doing fascist things

rosarosae.bsky.social•3 days ago

If he wants to “restore truth and sanity to American history” he should remove himself from Office

Hang together or hang separately, bro.

Oh look ... "Degenerate art"

Hmmm. It's 1939 kids.

annienewbie.bsky.social•3 days ago

You know what it sounds like? Germans, particulary nazis, and especially Hitler. You have your own little gestapo. Congrats #MAGA

Presumably this will be put on permanent display. https://youtu.be/LasrD6SZkZk?si=4uHE3wrngrhbYDhV

There is no sanity in the oval office. This is now Trumps version of fascism.

Does this guy need to ruin EVERYTHING??

heartsapien.bsky.social•3 days ago

The “Anti-American ideology” just being actual American history of course.

martinreich.bsky.social•2 days ago

How hitler-like it has to become until finally a large alliance of resistance forms? He eliminates your institutions one by one and soon nothing remains that could form a strong movement of resistance.

silverside.bsky.social•3 days ago

Trump is anti-American.

Reeducation.

Sh#tler, at it again.

Its called FASCISM. FUCKING NAME IT HYPOCRITES.

edhirsch.bsky.social•3 days ago

The predominate pro-Trump ambassadors in America are the strategically aligned U.S. Mainstream Media and Press corporations who have empowered all of his crimes, lies, and both of his presidencies
