GUARDRAIL #5
2026 Election.
Wait it out, and hope we survive 2 years. Then work like hell to elect Democratic Congress People to replace the Rubber Stamp weβre likely to have for the next 2 years.

BAD NEWS: Trump owns SCOTUS 6-3, as well as much of the Federal bench. We wonβt get much help here, though the ACLU is girded for action, and will not likely go down without a fight. Consider a donation!

BAD NEWS: The Senate and House are both controlled by Republicans who are likely to give Trump whatever he wants. This Guardrail may be shot.
GUARDRAIL #4
The Courts.

GUARDRAIL #3
Congress.
See Guardrail #2. Get on a First Name basis with your Senator and Congress Person. Write them an email, letter, or text PER DAY so they know what you want.
/4
WHAT YOU CAN DO: Contact your Senators (especially Republican ones.) Tell them to NOT APPROVE the most egregious MAGA Zealots who will rubber stamp Trumpβs every whim.

GUARDRAIL #2
The Cabinet.
Adults in the Room. Trump has appointed precious few. The Senate gets advise and consent on theseβ¦ unless they allow Trump to issue βrecess appointments.β (Free ride!)

Well, here we are. Trump is President, with a Republican Senate, House, and Supreme Court. Here are the Guardrails as I see them - such as they are. Letβs go our part to strengthen them as we can.
GUARDRAIL #1
The election.
Oops. No longer an option.
