Let’s show support for the federal workers who were fired like we did during covid 19 for healthcare workers.
Post signs that say I love usps or va or any agency.
Most of us have windows and doors.
That would make it very visible.
These are photoshopped
My signs are out!

I was thinking of taking up stress baking as a hobby. If I succeed I will put you on my list of lucky cake recipients:) 🤞 The last time I made a cake from scratch it had a wallpaper glue quality but I'm hopeful this time will be better. I need a challenging hobby badly.

This simple fucker doesn't realize that Trump and Musk are the most Anti-labor duo in American history. Unions are done for, they just haven't got to them yet.

It's really not worth staying IMO. I'll be leaving.

part but there are only so many characters & it is hard to explain all that. All the training the people have, all the work experience, the data, methods, archives, etc. it is a HUGE THEFT from decades of ppl working there, ppl paying taxes to support it all that. I wish an economist would tally it.

yep. My daughter is right in the middle of a Biostats doctorate & doing cancer research. She has been in school since she was 3. So that's 21 years w/ 2 more years. Her program & cancer research is funded by the NIH. I'm encouraging her to consider leaving the US. I wanted to inc. the ppl expertise

Well it is pretty uncommon for that to happen. He would have to also have to control the Metro PD which I don't think he does. Would he shoot to kill a massive amount of people? I kinda doubt it but I have no real idea what might happen. I'd still expect it to be similar to Portland/DC protests.

When you consider how Alabama is, it makes sense he'd be their leader.

But not because of your or anyone else's failure of optimism. You are blaming the victims for their own suffering. Cheer up you Debby Downers is not the profound self-help tweak you think it is. It's denying reality.

You may be right. It is hard to guess. I wouldn't think they'd act differently than in early protests but who can say. Maybe they would gun down a million people. I have felt the boycotts may work. But no one knows until it's tried.

I've watched how a lot of people on SM, including liberals, have a very imaginary view of "the military." They watch Fox & listen to RW podcasts every day, often all day. That stuff blares away on most, if not all, military bases. It's not like the grandpas who fought in Vietnam, etc.

I bet Trump will pardon Diddy if he gives him all his money.

This idea that everything will be okay is why there has been so little fightback. It is weak and stupid. But think your happy thoughts to make yourself feel better if you can't cope with the truth.

Well I could just pretend but I'm more comfortable seeing things the way they are. To be honest one of the reasons liberals tend to fail so miserably is because they do not. They seem to think they can "manifest" reality with their extra-special positive thinking. If only magical thinking were true.

No. I worked for the military for years & have veteran family members. They won't stick their necks out. The idea that they're heroes is a myth that people enjoy believing - it gives them comfort. And most of them are MAGA so their already on board with a dictatorship. It will give them more power.

It is. By firing all the JAG lawyers they've captured the military who will do what they tell them. The vast majority are MAGA so that will be easy.

This is exactly what the Republicans are doing. They are trying to pass the SAVE act which prevents women from voting and taking over the USPS to end mail-in voting which helps seniors and Americans overseas.

Yes but does he care? If the elections are fixed in 2026/2028 what will it matter?
Russia has 'elections' and trump has been schooled for years, how to show the appearance of a free election that has a predetermined outcome

Unfortunately, it's too late. The military is gone.
