Stating the obvious: one big reason Donald's maniacal actions seem so psychotic is because he's reacting to pervasive MAGAsphere myths: invasion at the border, children being mutilated, vaccines are toxic, climate crisis is a hoax, government is the problem etc. His agenda is a reaction to fantasy.

And this is why I want a @generalstrikeus.bsky.social Because whether we live in a modern America or 1780's France depends on whether we can organize a general strike before one of the cases challenging the Executive Orders hits a court corrupt enough to legitimize it, and that's coming soon.

A thousand times this.

Well said.

Another BROKEN campaign SCAM promise by felon/GOP/oligarchs!💔 Felon/GOP/oligarchs are NOT lowering costs! They’re SCREWING millions of their own constituents; stripping America for parts; laying off workers; breaking contracts U.S. farmers need to survive! USA RECESSION looms & skyrocketing costs!

Say the quiet part out loud. IT’S A COUP!

What do you think will happen first, plagues, famine, economic collapse or war? With Musk/Trump and MAGA in charge it will all come our way. The people in charge are certifiably insane, and the people that put them in power confirm my assessment of the lack of intelligence in the human species.

Today I am glad I am old because I won’t have to suffer in Musk/Trump’s America for as long as younger people.

Republicans will go down in history like the fascists of Europe, but that is little consolation for the great suffering that has begun. A new Dark Age of human history rises as the sun sets on the ideals of the country called the United States of America.

With the election of Donald J. Trump the South that fought a war to keep slavery and instigated the system of Jim Crow has finally won and taken power. The democratic republic is no more. We are all slaves now.

I am a 75 year old women with plenty of health issues. I shouldn’t have to be the one to call you out. I shouldn’t have to be the one who has to put this all together. Rise up! Do the work together to put Musk/Trump and their cronies where they belong, which is not at the head of our government.

We have to hit the billionaire bros where it hurts, in their pocketbooks and in their bloated egos. I am calling on every American who believes in our constitutionally enshrined rights to stand up for those rights no matter their social class, sex, ethnicity or religious stance.

Active union members get this. National unions should also be coordinating and cooperating. The courts may slow things down, but alone will not save us. We the people together are what will be required to stop the lawlessness of the Musk/Trump fascist takeover.

The leaders of the center and left members of our failing democratic republic should have had a well-developed plan for informing, educating and organizing its members. All the organizations exhorting me to do this or that should have been ready to coordinate and cooperate with each other on day 1.

And it will not be effective enough to stop the push for autocracy presently being made by Musk/Trump aided and abetted by their billionaire buddies and the Republican, white Christian nationalist neofascists. It’s not like we couldn’t see this making America into Russia coming our way.

I have been receiving and responding to all kinds of organizations’ emails and texts asking me to sign petitions and write and call my federal representatives to stand up to Musk/Trump. I have also been invited to protests that are too difficult or far away for me to attend. It’s all scattershot.

People don’t stand up for what is right because history tells us that such people get mowed down. They lose their positions, their status, even their lives. Those that do are rare among human being and easily ostracized and destroyed by the cowardice of most and cruel sadism of a few.

Those who voted for Trump are no different than the non slave owning men that fought in the Civil War to preserve slavery and the subjugation of women, the non binary and the immigrant other. Today the billionaire oligarchs control them rather than plantation owners. All for a facade of status.

Jeff Bezos never wanted this cartoon to become public. He killed it, and as a result, pulitzer prize editorial cartoonist Ann Telnaes quit. Make sure everyone sees this cartoon.
