Dueling ideas...

This really hasn’t gotten enough attention this week.

Obama: When I think back to a year ago, I remember talking to some people, who would say, this election doesn't matter all that much. That however the next president ended up being, it wasn't going to matter to them. If nothing else, the last nine months should have cured us of that idea.

Obama: "The weird videos of a US president with a crown on his head flying a fighter jet & dumping poop on American citizens - that's not even worth booing about. Because all of that is a distraction from the fact that your situation, your life has not gotten better. They do it so you won't notice"

I laughed so hard at this I will send him another twenty bucks.

The President of the United States is so upset about his failed campaign for a Nobel Prize that he's now trying to claim someone else's prize as his own.

Pathetic.

Trump Threatens to Resume Nuclear Weapons Testing, Minutes Before Xi Meeting Just minutes before he was scheduled to meet President Xi Jinping of China, the president threatened on social media to resume nuclear testing for the first time in 33 years.

Breaking News: President Trump threatened on social media to resume nuclear weapons testing for the first time in 33 years.

WTH?

YouTube video by Reagan Library President Reagan's Radio Address on Free and Fair Trade on April 25, 1987

So they didn’t like the ad. Let’s just post Reagan’s 5 min speech against tariffs as it appears on YouTube.

Over and over. On all platforms (some of y’all are still on X).

*1981 Sherrilyn horrified by 2025 Sherrilyn saying “let’s post Reagan’s speech.”

Well, at least it doesn't mention stabbing (f-word meaning gay men)

They only work if sustained beyond single-day stunts. Montgomery Bus Boycott, fir instance, lasted over 350 days.

The phone number for the U.S. Capitol switchboard is (202) 224-3121. #epstein

Trump and Stephen Miller’s authoritarian playbook is painfully predictable:

1️⃣ Target a Democratic city
2️⃣ Lie about crime
3️⃣ Deploy heavily armed agents to aggressively detain innocent people and violate their rights
4️⃣ Create stress and chaos
5️⃣ Use self-created chaos as excuse for militarization

The Constitution is not self-enforcing.

The only thing holding our Republic together are our norms.

And the only thing that enforces those norms is The People.

No one is coming to save us.

It's entirely up to us.

FYI :“Destruction of federal property is a federal crime. 18 U.S. Code § 1361 defines the crime as willfully injuring or committing any depredation against U.S. government property. If the damage exceeds $1k it is a felony with a fine, up to ten years in prison or both.”

Awaiting law enforcement.

If the National Guard is really in D.C. to protect federal
property, they should probably have been at 1600 Pennsylvania Ave. two days ago

We have just over two weeks to pass Prop 50. And when we do, it will send a message of hope across the country, that change is possible if we do the work.

So, let’s get to it. linktr.ee/cadem
