They sent him to military school to get him under control but it clearly had no effect. He is as out of control as ever and we will pay the price for it.
IMPEACH the orange rapist! This will get his many, many offenses on the record. I will call my reps & senators--it matters; they definitely tally all the calls & emails. Blaming Biden for the world's ills is misguided and clearly tRump is MUCH worse. And Musk must also be stopped--noone elected him.
Forget about anything on the Federal level... Senators, Congress people, law enforcement, etc. They are all ineffective or compromised.
This needs to be taken to the States. State Governors and Attorneys General need to start the movement. If key parts of the Constitution are being violated by the people beholden to enforce it, then it has been made null and void.
Forget about any of the parts of the Constitution addressing secession. It would all be void anyways. If enough states declare that they are taking their toys and going home it would be unstoppable. It wouldn't even take a majority of states, just the right states.
Not possible? Sure it is. The Soviet Union fell with very little violence. No one could have ever conceived of that.
It may be the only way to remove so much power from a dictator and his oligarchs.
The states that pay in to federal coffers and support the (red) states that don't. In other words, the blue states. Their governors should have ongoing meetings and travel abroad to meet with world leaders, get their state national guards on-call, have the AGs confabbing, close down all federal office buildings, and do all the things that mirror Musk/Trump lawlessness. The Big Snub works both ways. States have constitutions too.
Why won't secession be a option? Plus they have half of what the blue States own I didn't work my whole life to have 2 strokes and be disabled which they now call retirement? To loose my Social Security Medicare and other benefits not everyone was able to put a nest egg away and invest in the stock market! I'm freaked out and maybe we need younger people who are freaked out with nothing to loose to pull this off! Religious my ass!
Secession is a process defined in the Constitution. If the Constitution is voided, by words or actions, that option is gone. But it wouldn't be needed anyways. The Constitution defines the Union between the states, without it there is no union - just individual states.
Yes, this is a frightening time. We are all screwed. Mitch McConnell said a few times that people should work until they die. I believe it may also say that in Project 2025. Many people can't work beyond their 60's, and some can't work even younger than that.
They want to turn Medicare over to private insurance companies. Medicare was created many years ago because private insurance companies wouldn't cover anyone over 65 due to the cost and volume of care needed by people over 65. Private health insurance for seniors will be in the thousands of dollars PER MONTH!
Aren't those Christian values, held by Christian Nationalists, just so Christ-like? 😡
All those advantage plans advertised or a trick is to call it Medicare C is all the big insurance companies that partner with your state Medicaid that's why they say call this number and give them your zip code and see if a Medicare C plan. Is available in your area of course there is usually only 5 have a contract with Medicare and like it says check every year because more plans might be better ya it's because it's usually only good for a year they figure you'll get used to the doctor and want to stay so you'll be paying premium for you're benefits this was the government plan that everyone would be on an advantage plan by 2025 which the States Medicaid pay's for it's portion so I'm betting those big insurance companies are absolutely furious that he messed up their plan's to become even more wealthy neither one knows how these systems work and that the government also has loans which he'll try to not pay!
I need to get off Substack now as I'm absolutely sick reading this and the levels of evil that is not making America great again, which I doubt if he carried as it was just a pitch to get in those door's so he had access to what he started to steal his first term! Since they are illegally pushing for complete financial control and this is against are constitutional rights I'd have security drag him by his feet and toss him out! Musk has 0 without Trump I'd get some good hacker's and bring his systems down and make them unfixable
Is there anyone listing the lawsuits being filed against all this, as Snell is listing the crimes. It would be really useful to know who the plaintiff's and their lawyers are, so we can have some idea of who we can donate to. I've already found a couple, but it would be good to know who is suing about what so I can allocate my limited resources on the ones that most interest me?
Law Dork brings us some, but it would be heartening to have a list that shows us HOW MANY there are--to assure us that despite everything SOMEone is doing SOMEthing.
So far the DOJ does seem to be honoring injunctions, TRO's, and administrative stays. They agreed to one proposed order yesterday on the Treasury Invasion--and out comes Bondi's godawful letter advising them that US Policy all belongs to trump, and doing anything to thwart pursuit of it will get them fired.
Yea the letters threatening people who "don't comply" are also unconstitutional I would think. Bondi's letter wasn't the first. I thought there was one stating that members of Congress "must vote yes" on all his immigration bills (or some such wording). There has been so much it's hard to keep up
and the mere thought that "all US Policy belongs to trump" also unconstitutional. But page 1 of P2025- install loyalists who don't care about the law
Law suit's only work if you're a law abiding citizen and you play by the rules, not going over the speed limit as you fear a ticket! He doesn't fear the law plus who on God's green earth is going to enforce the law! He changed that day one! Fight this like it's worse then the California wildfires Cuz it is who the F shows off by dumping water that the farmers needed! He's back in highschool and dreaming of the next kid to be mean too and showing the school I can do this and your not sending me home! I would get the best hacker's and remove the incentive ($$) take away access reroute it freeze it, then the normal part of the whitehouse needs to get outta their and start over! Protect and remove what they can and sabotage the rest! We can do without the red States who don't believe they lost the civil war! Who else does civil war reenactments cuz that's normal and unfortunate for those stuck in a red State I'm in a blue one but surrounded by Red townships! This needs to be like a black opps thing by Dem's not afraid which I believe a lot are! Can't be afraid of a job he's going to eliminate? He'll get rid of Dem's soon
If you abandon any hope that the courts can do anything, then might as well just emigrate to somewhere. I'll wait to see them violate injunctions or other court orders, and then reevaluate. I don't think there IS a normal part of this white house.
Eventually, our courts must recognize that they are the last hope to defeat this ridiculous and cruel administration as it tries to destroy our freedom and democracy. Someone's got to shout "Enough"!!
What's weird to me is that people thought somehow that electing Trump would go well. Like, we saw this movie already. So now, it's like, ok welcome to the real world which we all told you would come.
I saw soooo many people justifying their votes with "Project 2025 can't and will not happen here" as well as "He said he doesn't support it" (you know, because he's never lied before). It's sickening
I imagined it. Honestly it's worse than I imagined, I thought he would somehow get some pushback from someone with a spine in Congress. Guess that was a pipe dream.
I wonder if any of them are looking at what is happening and regretting that decision? They are judges first after all, or they are supposed to be. Yes I know had they been judges when deciding immunity we wouldn't be here
He was given immunity for anything done as official presidential business. So far the complete shitshow that he has started with muskrat and all his BS EO's is "official business". I'm hoping that when SCOTUS gave him this blanket immunity they didn't foresee burning down the government as something he would do and try to walk some of this back.
One of the things I haven’t seen covered much yet is how much USAID purchases from US farmers snd ranchers, although one claim is that it amounts to $2B in wheat, rice, lentils and peas annually and so far as I can determine that number may be accurate. It doesn’t say anything about other goods and services USAID buys in the US. Since they announced today that 300 of the roughly 13,000 positions at USAID will be exempt from the administrative leave set to happen tomorrow a minute before midnight, I want to know if those 300 are going to somehow continue to purchase those US products and if not what the effect on the economy will be.
It's amusing to hear Karoline Leavitt declare that illegal immigrants are not subject to the jurisdiction of the laws of the United States.
Not being subject to jurisdiction would, of course, mean the US couldn't arrest or prosecute them; for illegal entry or for any other criminal matters. Talk about an own-goal legal theorem.
They sent him to military school to get him under control but it clearly had no effect. He is as out of control as ever and we will pay the price for it.

I am not saying we shouldn't try. But Republicans have no spine. I don't think they'll go for it.

States Rights!
It's true, so much important resistance is happening at the state level! Save us Governors!
The states that pay in to federal coffers and support the (red) states that don't. In other words, the blue states. Their governors should have ongoing meetings and travel abroad to meet with world leaders, get their state national guards on-call, have the AGs confabbing, close down all federal office buildings, and do all the things that mirror Musk/Trump lawlessness.

F yes orange oompa loompa should be impeached!! Even if it doesn’t pass it’s in the record yes?
I loathe that guy. I wish I wish I wish.
Carry on.
I need to get off Substack now as I'm absolutely sick reading this and the levels of evil that is not making America great again, which I doubt if he carried as it was just a pitch to get in those door's so he had access to what he started to steal his first term!

Sounds like a plan.

Good point. Not sure if that is being compiled in one place somewhere. Marc Elias is also a good resource! https://bsky.app/profile/marcelias.bsky.social

This will take a concerted, non-stop effort by the Ds to hold things together for 2 more years!
Eventually, our courts must recognize that they are the last hope to defeat this ridiculous and cruel administration as it tries to destroy our freedom and democracy. Someone's got to shout "Enough"!!
“Keeping on Keepin’ On.”
Did we imagine that things would get so bad?
We had our suspicions.
After all our parents were first generation Americans and we know how complicated world affairs can get.
In honesty we weren’t considering Mars as a point of contention.
We’ve revised our agenda!
What's weird to me is that people thought somehow that electing Trump would go well. Like, we saw this movie already. So now, it's like, ok welcome to the real world which we all told you would come.

I imagined it. Honestly it's worse than I imagined, I thought he would somehow get some pushback from someone with a spine in Congress. Guess that was a pipe dream.
This SJC has given him free rein to do whatever he wants as president with no consequences!
I wonder if any of them are looking at what is happening and regretting that decision? They are judges first after all, or they are supposed to be. Yes I know had they been judges when deciding immunity we wouldn't be here
Technically he wasn't given immunity for everything!
He was given immunity for anything done as official presidential business. So far the complete shitshow that he has started with muskrat and all his BS EO's is "official business". I'm hoping that when SCOTUS gave him this blanket immunity they didn't foresee burning down the government as something he would do and try to walk some of this back.

Rachel Maddow did a thing where it was mentioned but I hadn't seen it anywhere else
