By the time major media agree that it's a dictatorship, it will be so far along that they'll be afraid to call it a dictatorship.

He’s threatening media companies who are critical of him.

He’s talking about sending Americans to foreign prisons.

He’s signing executive orders to investigate former staff members who spoke out against him.

He’s defying the Supreme Court.

Don’t you see what’s happening here?

Pope Francis’ letter to U.S. Bishops is incedibly powerful. This stands out to me especially. Every purported Christian faith leader who has endorsed or stood silent before Trump’s ugly immigration policies needs to be confronted with this statement.

In light of Trump II’s first 18 days of mayhem — including his and Musk’s coup against our system of government — many are asking: “What can I do now?”

Here’s a revised and expanded list, in rough order of importance.

Yes, this administration is dangerous and cruel, but they are also shockingly dim and incompetent.

Opportunities are everywhere.

Make everything as hard as possible. Resist every demand. Refuse entry without a warrant. Don’t take the buyout. Their problem solving skills are 📉

One voice can be very very loud.

And by being so, it can inspire others to speak up too.
Would very much like to thank Joanne Freeman @jbf1755.bsky.social for her pointing out that Bishop Budde was one voice, just one, speaking to power and it was amplified across the media.

Don't give up.
Don't stop speaking the truth.

Resistance is NOT futile.

All judges MUST READ this thoughtful description of how Donald Trump’s unprecedented threats of selective and indeed vindictive federal prosecution should refocus the lens through which they assess all requests and actions by Trump’s Department of Justice or his FBI:

I’m not in a very charitable mood with them either, to tell the truth.

There’s a devastating feeling of déjà vu right now. Mainstream institutions are too eager to do Trump’s bidding and too many Democrats have gone skittish instead of fighting back against MAGA.

But once again, there’s reason for hope. It’s all of us: indivisibleproject.formstack.com/forms/organi...

Really don’t recall a lot of talk about a giant national shift to the left in 2008. And Obama didn’t even win by vomiting lies as if demon possessed.
This is not a mandate.
