Trump can’t be restrained, or reasoned with, or babysat for the next four years. The only way to bring power back under the rule of law is to remove a lawless man from power.

If you ever find yourself about to post something that is important to you, but then hesitate…fearing it might piss someone off….you MUST post it. Those are the very posts that count the most right now. Someone has got to say it. Let it be you.

Trump's in full retreat today as his poll numbers slip: He convened the cabinet to limit Elon after voters pressured Congress. He delayed the tariffs b/c the market dropped out & created fears of a recession. He's losing in court b/c DOGE didn't follow the law. Keep fighting.

“Clearcutting these beautiful places will increase fire risk, drive species to extinction, pollute our rivers and streams, and destroy world-class recreation sites.” Trump’s timber order is based on nothing but lies, greed, hatred, and monumental ignorance. www.theguardian.com/us-news/2025...

These republicans are getting more than their noses brown with this type of psychophant bs. They’ve probably even got shit in their teeth by now.

Never in our history has the US voted w/ Dictatorships at the expense of our Democratic allies—that is until today.  Trump has not only just ruined US credibility as a global leader, but set back the global fight for democratic values and peace.

Selecting another right-wing Fox personality and internet troll — Dan Bongino — as Deputy FBI Director means two things: Trump installs another loyalist who won’t say no to any immoral or unethical act. And our law enforcement agencies — and the public safety — are further degraded.
