DOGE has broken into the United States Institute of Peace, the Trump Administration works to remove Judge Boasberg from overseeing the deportation case, and the National Archives refutes Trump.
There are people who are bipartisan, and in the name of the constitution, could step up. They need to be courageous, and need to organize, they need to be American. Didn’t Trump say “it is not illegal if it saves the country”. Your country needs a leader…
Why are people with voices, who carry weight speaking out? Like Obama, Bush etc. Anyone who has an important role should be going public! not just a few!
Obama has. He also did a comedy skit recently. Bernie, AOC, Jasmine Crockett, Beto O'Rourk, Elizabeth Warren, Robert Reich, MOST (former) military commanders, MOST judges, MOST scientists, MOST historians, MOST economists, MOST educators, ALL civil and human rights advocates, MOST Veterans advocates, MOST former cabinet members, lawyers, and Generals, dozens of women, a couple adolescent boys, the Pope, MOST former allies and democratic nations, ...
Another group about which you might not have are the Resistance Rangers. They are 800 staff/former staff of the NPS/USFS. This Sat is the next set of national protests at mostly National Parks.
I do recommend watching Rachel Maddow (MSNBC) even if after the fact on YouTube. She is covering the first 100 days (well, M-F) and has actually been documenting the resistance. We need to see some of this to keep our spirits up. It is heartening.
Rachel Maddow has always been a trustworthy source for news and information. She is especially helpful in her reporting through this national nightmare.
Can we please all agree to some form of massive protest?? We can use the comments to agree to gather somehow.. maybe through TikTok? He has 3.3 million followers. There’s a lot of strength in these creator’s numbers.
I vote for everyone to print a picture of yourself, blurring out the face and inserting "Give me back my Country. Impeach Trump and remove the Goon and his Goonies" on the back print out the Actual Laws and Constitutional Reference on the back of the photo. Send to Supreme Court Justices and Congress. Send a copy to AOC, Jasmin Crockett, Bernie Sanders, Tim Walz and others who are fighting our fight.
He will never release the EPSTEIN files though! Bet! There would more proof of his sexual proclivities even the illegal ones. He can’t have that right?!?
It’s all a distraction! He is throwing spaghetti on the wall to see what sticks. Whilst having closed door meetings and side deals with the dirty politicians of every country. They have the money to buy them and make sure “” YOU’LL NEVER HAVE TO VOTE AGAIN “ he believes he is the king & will attempt to just pass down the crown to his kids or whomever. 😞
Our government has been infiltrated by terrorists and no one is left to stand up to them. We are it, America. We are all we have. Let’s get to work before we have nothing left.
Arrest them too, for dereliction of duty under the colors of authority. Every appointment Trump has made must be removed. If the staff can not supply the changes or information obtained illegally they will be imprisoned for life.
So we're pulling protection away from former presidential families now? Who's family is next? Republicans and the Supreme Court better pay attention, if he keeps having unchecked power he WILL get rid of them very very soon..
I think he did that so they can be set up for the January 6ers to go after. I hope they're careful or hire their own security this is so dangerous for them. He's so cruel.
It’s the pure absolute hate and retaliation that gets me!
Biden will always have protection but Trump can go after his kids. Whilst running his campaign on religion and good family values.
Changing laws against women, children, aging community, LGBTQIA, poc, anyone not white and/or extremely rich, (if you have enough $ you can buy a green card now 🤔) he cares not about the planet, or anyone on it. 🙄
Give it a few more years when corporations don’t have to worry about the toxins they are pouring out, which leads to a crisis when the Christian Nationalist women can no longer get pregnant/carry babies. Then they will turn it into the Handmaid’s Tale. Sadly, we’re so much closer to this than we can see. Especially if they remove all birth control.
Just want to say thank you to all of you who have become paid subscribers or venmoed (Aaron-parnas) me to show support.
I’m exhausted too, trust me. But, together, we are redefining the media landscape and I’m grateful to all of you!
I was a full-time journalist for years. You are doing a great job, and I trust your reporting. Thank you for your service in pursuit of the truth!
What do do? There is no one to enforce the law
There are people who are bipartisan, and in the name of the constitution, could step up. They need to be courageous, and need to organize, they need to be American. Didn’t Trump say “it is not illegal if it saves the country”. Your country needs a leader…

We need each other—we are for each other. Hang in there…
so flippin exhausted and we aren’t even 60 days in
EXHAUSTED! Starting to take an antidepressant as recommended by many in this wonderful group, so I can keep up with the Good Trouble.
I get it…
Mine was just upped! The happy bubble started to feel 😕

If only she’d stick around for the next 1,360 days after that…
Agree! Sitting down now to watch Rachel. 💙👍🏼
I also posted quick links on my Substack.
You are absolutely right. Rachel Maddow is doing a great of reporting. Somehow, she's keeping a sense of humor.
That (having a sense of humor) is getting harder and harder to do. The “oopsie” tweet from the El Salvador Prez was a new low for me today…

We cannot stand for this!
I encourage you to look into the general strike which is seeking to do just that: generalstrikeus.com
Not enough people signing up for this. It’s been weeks and only 300,000.
I agree and it’s more reason to keep pushing it with people you know or blast on all platforms. 300k is a lot but is definitely not enough

We don’t know and should not believe anything released by this administration on anything.. jfk files tomorrow is a distraction from something…
Yet another deflection so he can turn our heads instead of on all this illegal stuff he’s doing🙄
BINGO.
And can we really trust what the files say to be true? I think not.
Agreed that the jfk files are a distraction.
He will never release the EPSTEIN files though! Bet! There would more proof of his sexual proclivities even the illegal ones. He can’t have that right?!?

🎯 EXACTLY.
We need to arrest tRump & Felon ! Please now!!
Sadly he is immune. The SCOTIS granted him this immunity. He knows he will never be prosecuted for any crimes.
Agreed but only people that can is the DOJ and he has them in his pocket
Arrest them too, for dereliction of duty under the colors of authority. Every appointment Trump has made must be removed. If the staff can not supply the changes or information obtained illegally they will be imprisoned for life.
IMPEACH-REMOVE-TREASON- What are we doing people?!?!
So we're pulling protection away from former presidential families now? Who's family is next? Republicans and the Supreme Court better pay attention, if he keeps having unchecked power he WILL get rid of them very very soon..
I keep asking what the Supreme Court is doing and if they will continue to let him get away with this nonsense
They can only act on cases that come to them through the court system (appeals).
They cant speak out or issue statements?
They can but they can't. They are supposed to stay neutral to issues until it comes before them for judgement "allegedly".
It seems that they're not neutral. Because that last ruling was 5-4 and it should've been cut and dry. This is all a disaster!
As long as he keeps paying enough of them off.
I think he did that so they can be set up for the January 6ers to go after. I hope they're careful or hire their own security this is so dangerous for them. He's so cruel.

This just keeps getting worse and worse. It’s time to take a stand and get our country back on track!!
I totally agree, but aren't we doing the most we can?
I fear it’s just not enough. We need bigger numbers, strikes, and if we need to go there fight it with strength!
I swear I feel like I am in an episode of The Simpson Show!🤦🏽♀️
I feel more like I’m living in the Twilight Zone…
That too! Orrrrr….Handmaiden Tale???🤔

Breaking into the Institute of Peace is just wrong on so many levels. These people are out of control. 🤦🏻♀️
Indivisible, 50501 and other groups are organizing nationwide protests on April 5. Looks like their focus is getting as many people as possible to DC.
This administration is as corrupt as russia and north korea 🙄
How much more evidence do we need that Trump is a Russian asset?
'COULD BE" Held in contempt. Where the hell are our laws??
Lock all the trump administration up and throw away the keys.
