Thinking & Thankful 💪💙🤗🏳️‍🌈

The Republican & Trump administration‘s destruction of everything in America: democracy, economy, environment, healthcare, education & science, international relations, civil & personal rights, justice, security, ethics / common decency, etc. will take democratic administrations years to clean up!

Who benefits from Trump’s war in Iran? The answer is disturbingly clear There's no four-dimensional chess here. There's just the president, and what we know he's like.

Why has Trump started this illegal war with Iran? It’s because Saudi Arabia, the United Arab Emirates and Qatar want a regime change in Iran and have bribed Trump with billions of dollars to make it happen. Oh, and the oil of course.

Tell Congress there’s no time for food waste Over 30% of food in the US ends up in the trash instead of feeding people. And this waste is costing us money and hurting the planet.

@barackobama.bsky.social: "When I was POTUS, I suppose I could have simply unilaterally ordered the military to go into some red state and harass and intimidate a governor or cut off funding for states that didn't vote for me... but that is contrary to how I think our democracy is supposed to work."

Exactly! Bottom line, the oligarchs do not care about democracy, civil rights, the environment, income equality or the rest of us; Just as long as they can operate above the law, continue to consume all our resources and make billions more.

It’s simple: they live in fear & a scarcity mindset but you live in hope & an abundance mindset.

And it’s time for blue regions of the country to seriously consider secession and/or looking into a different federal system of government like a more loosely affiliated state system similar to the EU. This rot runs deep in the entire Republican Party and their supporters. We are two countries.

The fascist, corruption going on in this country is being supported by the entire Republican Party and their supporters. The only solution at this point is to split the country and implement a loosely affiliated state system similar to the EU.

The fascist corruption runs deep in the republican party. We need to focus on weakening the federal government & moving towards a more loosely affiliated union of states; Similar to the EU & the original Articles of Confederation. Abolish SCOTUS & Senate. We can’t go back.

Future administrations need to focus on weakening the federal government & becoming a more loosely system of affiliated states. Similar to the original Articles of Confederation & the EU. Abolish SCOTUS & Senate. There is no coming back from this fascist corruption supported by republican voters.

Once this regime is deposed, America will never be the same. Republicans and their supporters have gone beyond redemption. We need to focus on becoming a very loosely affiliated state system with a weak federal government. Similar to the original Articles of Confederation.

Yes, that would be a great place to start 👍

The fascist, corrupt rot runs deep in the United States. Again, this is not just Trump, this is the entire Republican Party and their supporters who continue to support this regime. The only long-term solution is to split the country. EU type loose affiliation of states.

I can't put into words the feeling of watching our government, a hive of evil antisocial filth, the absolute worst humanity has to offer, colliding with the best. Ordinary people trying to help each other, risking everything to stand up for what's plainly, unambiguously fair and right. It's unreal

All local law-enforcement in blue states need to be trained on how to counter the fascist, lawless federal governments invasion and protect their citizens. Yes, we are at that point… and blue State governors and local officials in cities need to prepare for the front line.

They only hate anyone that is not in their cult having any rights to anything.

Trump has declared war on blue states: withholding federal funds illegally, attacking our self-determination & occupying our cities with military force. Democratic governors need to fight back more: withhold federal taxes, local law enforcement defend citizens, etc.

The real question is what actions need to be taken now? It’s time for the blue resistance to up the ante & start ignoring this lawless, fascist regime, & start protecting its blue state citizens at all costs. We are in a new era & asking for permission is no longer valid.

We are beyond the regular situation of coordination between law-enforcement. ICE is not a legitimate arm of law-enforcement. State national guards and local law-enforcement need to protect regular citizens against the untrained ICE goons now.
