I just decided to donate to Act Blue. I'm calling my elected officials every day, going to protests, donating. With my limited resources and skills, I don't know what else to do. We need massive protests + bombarding politicians. I'm angry about the complacency and apathy, too.

Anyone with a functioning brain and a sound moral compass knew it would come to this, and these tyrants and bigots are just warming up. They've been champing at the bit for years to pummel into the ground their usual targets--minorities, women, LGBTQ people.

I'm a US citizen. I support this wholeheartedly. I am mortified that roughly half of our citizens voted for this sadistic mobster, and now the world faces his abuse and danger.

I've been saying since 2017 "It won't stop here." Our citizens need to fill the streets. We need the visuals of massive protests. We need to be contacting elected officials every day.

I'm a US citizen. I've seen this for years, not just about Donald, but also about the Republican Party. It stuns me that so many people didn't see how dangerous Newt Gingrich was in the 1990s.

I cheer for Rep. Green. Every Democrat there should have shouted and walked out. When will they see what they're up against?

I'm a US citizen, 73YO, need to watch my budget. I'm calling my elected officials every day, writing letters to the editor, going to protests, and I donated to two investigative reporting publications. What else do you suggest we do? Please don't assume we're doing nothing.

I'm a US citizen. I stand with Canada, Europe, and Ukraine. The current regime in power in the US is a disgrace. I'm doing what I can to oppose them as a private citizen. All the best to Canada and Canadians! 🫂💔

That was the whole reason for that performance extortion in front of a TASS reporter, and not AP or Reuters. It was a set-up to justify suspension of aid. We have a cabal of sadistic mobsters controlling the US. They have help from outside the US.

A week ago. Would have today, but the march in Philly was rescheduled at the last minute from noon to 6 p.m. I will be at the March 8 protest, and any others I can attend.

This won't stop with students, university students, or protests involving Palestinians, Gaza, or Israel. This should alarm every citizen.

It's to leave Ukraine defenseless against Putin's savagery. Putin isn't interested in a negotiation. He wants to help himself to Ukraine, and then to Europe. Donald the Monster intends to help him do that.

I'm finding conflicting info about Philadelphia PA. Do you know if there is a protest at City Hall on March 4? TIA.

Thank you. It's Sunday evening. I will get to this tomorrow morning.

Handing the country over to Putin. Not even trying to hide it. Flipping us all off---"Who's going to stop us? What're you gonna do about it?"

Sorry, to make clear, I am not a federal employee. I'm a gravely worried citizen. I knew that critical materials were going to start to disappear under this regime, so I save those materials on a flash drive, as many as I can.

Sorry, I wasn't clear, I'm not a federal employee. I just saw this coming a long time ago, materials disappearing, so I save materials on a flash drive that I think this regime could scrub.

Thanks but sorry, I wasn't clear. I'm not a federal employee, I was just expecting in general that materials were going to be blacked out and scrubbed by this regime, so I began saving materials on a flash drive to have a record.

I expected this. I downloaded all of the J6 Committee Report files onto a flash drive. Did likewise with a lot of other files. Documents and all kinds of materials are going to vanish. I hope others have been doing the same.

It looks like he's on his phone. But if Biden had done that, the major "news" media would have been flooding the air waves and Internet with it non-stop for days.

Nice, but they've been defying court orders until now. What evidence is there that they're going to change and comply?

If it looks like Republicans are going to get shellacked in an election, Republicans likely won't let an election take place, at least anything we recognize as an election. GOP voters were warned. I hope it isn't too late, but likely it is.

Time to do a BBC Victoria Derbyshire on these liars. Stop them. Tell them you're not going to let them lie to the nation, and you're going to cut their mic. Then do it. And have security escort them out of the building.

And I'm going to post this cartoon by @anntelnaes.bsky.social so the world never forget what Trump did.

I don't watch TV so I don't know, but I keep wondering if there are any reporters pinning down Republicans in front of cameras and demanding to know why they want to take people's Social Security money to pay for billionaire tax cuts.

I'm glad to see this ruling, but I don't have a lot of faith in it having an effect if this monster and his co-monster just ignore the rulings and defy the law.

I question that "unconventional" is a strong enough characterization of this--what I'd call a regime, not an administration. It's a grave global danger. The goal is the destruction of our democratic republic.

It's a tightrope but you have to pay attention to the things that matter that you're informed about, and the distractions they're putting out to flood the zone.

I'm not so sure we're going to be having elections in the sense that anyone means a free, functioning election. When the regime sees the widespread anger and opposition, they won't want to let those people vote them out of office. Might allow the kind of farce Russia had a while ago.

I'm an American. I'm horrified and mortified at what my country is doing. I apologize to the world and I'm disgusted with the people who voted for this monster. We have to follow Governor Pritzker's example and denounce this regime. All the best to Canadians, I stand in solidarity with you.

Thank you, governor. I'm afraid of how courageous we're going to have to be, as this regime's repressive, destructive wrongs grow and become more grave. But I will be as courageous as I can be. I dread the consequences.
