Gemini AI ginned up...

They are already ignoring vast tracts of the Bill of Rights -- it's going to get worse.

Once ICE and the DEA come for your guns, whatcha gonna do?

America is the Bill of Rights - without it - we're just like Venezuela, Hungary, Russia, or China.

a cartoon like illustration showing an animated Bill of Rights crying on the remains of a building with a crumblng set of buildings in the background: the Capitol, Washington Monument, Lincoln Memorial and other government buildings.

Yeah, sadly. Yes. But i truly hope the patriotic men and women in the services that remain, will, when pushed over the cliff of legality and moral propriety stiffen and resist. ( naive I know)

Assuming that live ammunition was issued, it is just a matter of time until some group panics and fires live rounds into unarmed civilian protesters .. I am quickly losing faith in our soldiers and agents to not follow illegal orders.

Same mentality that does this will certainly fabricate violence to justify live round gunfire.

This video from Portland is a metaphor for what is going on in America. ICE trying so hard to get Americans to cross a line and if they don't, dragging them across the line and violently attacking.

I am surprised that they didn't grab the rebar, melt it down, and make a statue of some Republican iron-man or another.

Too, they didn't merchandize it by selling chunks of concrete?

Oh wait .. that would convey the idea that they think it has value.

Trump and his goons hate it when their tactics and methods are used by others and reflected back on MAGA bs. Bunch of thin-skinned ghouls.

Today, the White House Press Secretary told the country that this ridiculous damn ballroom is “the president’s main priority”…not reopening the government, not lowering the cost of groceries, not lowering the cost of housing, not lowering the cost of healthcare….building a ballroom

I suspect not one of them would so much as whimper in public and they would all gather there when he put up the massive statue of himself as the grand westward facing winged victory.

As you said toward the end... the middle ground between democracy and authoritarianism is dangerous.

Imo Instability caused by run away egotistical klepocratic singlemndedness.

Gras Lux @graslux.bsky.social · 7d

I now live in a country where leaders demand loyalty but give none,

where leaders demand ethics and honor from their enemies, but practice none themselves,

where lies are pushed to truths and truths to lies,

where innocents are punished and guilty are given the keys to the prison.

He doesn't want independent producers of anything. Every farm or ranch needs to owned by big AG. Workers become sharecroppers. He oligarch buds to control all the means of production.

Chosen few will be elite consumers. Rest of us: wage slaves.

So sad we let this continue. Thanks for the insight.

Destroying a part of the whitehouse to build a monument to arrogance and egotism... one which we the people will destroy with glee once he is gone.

it hurts me that he does this without even a vote in congress to approve it or a public request for comment on the idea...

his country, not ours.

Since the GOP are colluding and coordinating across the country to make our vote irrelevant, the only peaceful thing they understand now are dollar$.

Hit the mega corporations where it hurts the most, so they stop pushing us into tyranny.

Don't buy Don't scroll day. Let's do it!

Chicago Mayor Issues Defiant Call For A General Strike

It was an audacious proposal, given that the U.S. has never held a true, nationwide general strike.

Wasting my time listening to the non answer talking point spewage comig from Katie Britt on CNN.

The greatest source of fraud, waste, and abuse is the GOP.

They have filled rather than drained the swamp with leeches, ticks, and Asian carp.

More proof CNN becomes a megaphone of the regime.

Yup. This. Energy was so positive and determined yesterday. Turnout was hard to believe for my small deep red town. It was great to see so many standing up for America.

Although classified as carnivores, wolves may sometimes follow an omnivorous diet. They can eat meat, eggs and even fruit!

This time of year, pumpkins are a special treat for our ambassador wolves.🎃 #wolffact

A real estate slum lord's personal vision of Welthauptstadt Germania, his new capital?

Or just an attempt at last legacy? One day the people will topple it like some sad Saddam statue?

Removing last bits of mandated artificial imperial greatness?

When his reign is over, how many generations will it take for the civil service to recover from the Trump Trauma?

Efficient, non-partisan, patriotic civil service is over.

The Swamp will be an actual thing.

Should we expect an even faster destruction of democracy as a way to block a vote on the Epstein files?

Will this all come to head on No Kings day? Will ICE and the NG attack or god forbid fire into peaceful no kings protesters? (We will be millions!)

Trumpie: Norway? You think Norway will bend the knee? What? Really?

They know what occupation and pressure by fascists is. Been there.

They have sovereign fund that make Americans swoon. No econ pressure will work fast.

They are karate kid. Bully at your own risk.
