Remember, the resistance won’t be televised.
Tomorrow, there will be more of us!
After playing a fictional member of the Resistance a long time ago, I never could have imagined it ever happening in real life, but here we are.

“Mark my words. … They are going to basically tell the U.S. Marshals Service, do not enforce any of these orders, we will not obey them, … and, once that happens—I hope it doesn't … but I know in my heart that it will—our 236-year experiment … in American constitutionalism, is over.”

This is about tampering with the structure of our government, which will ultimately undermine its ability to protect the freedom of our citizens.

Elon Musk’s team is set to delve into the nation’s aviation system, with his 20-year-old staffers utilizing AI to assist the FAA in a rapid overhaul of aviation technology. However, a more practical solution would be to simply hire more workers, as the FAA is severely short-staffed.

Republicans blocked my motion without allowing any debate.
They will stop at nothing to cover up Elon Musk's lawlessness.
White evangelicals are marinated in a foundational theology that sacralizes authoritarian male power unchecked by accountability.
This explains a lot about where we're at. Theology has consequences.
The next Democratic President (if we survive) is gonna have to spend their entire first term just trying to rebuild the federal government — and voters are gonna hate them for it.

“The really dangerous American fascist... is the man who wants to do in the United States in an American way what Hitler did in Germany in a Prussian way. The American fascist would prefer not to use violence. His method is to poison the channels of public information. With a fascist the problem is never how best to present the truth to the public but how best to use the news to deceive the public into giving the fascist and his group more money or more power... They claim to be super-patriots, but they would destroy every liberty guaranteed by the Constitution. They demand free enterprise, but are the spokesmen for monopoly and vested interest. Their final objective, toward which all their deceit is directed, is to capture political power so that, using the power of the state and the power of the market simultaneously, they may keep the common man in eternal subjection. ~quoted in the New York Times, April 9, 1944” ― Henry A. Wallace
