Anti-fascism, pro-democracy, informed, and fighting for our children's future! Also love museums, ethnic food, Svalbard, and the Oxford comma. Will not follow crypto, gems, fake accounts, etc!

Much as I would not dare to predict the consequences of this war, I do think we can summarize it thusly so far:

A smart and evil man manipulated a stupid and evil man into a war against a fanatical and evil regime.

I could hardly read this. It's quite frankly terrifying. But it's also motivating! No way will they achieve all of this, without the fight of their lives!

Mike Pence just reposted an old article he wrote about the limitations on the powers of a president. For some reason. Here is a part of it.

I am so ashamed to be a US citizen right now. Trump won't stop until we're in an alliance with Russia, and European nations have turned against us. Trump wanted to look strong, instead he accomplished the opposite. Zelensky showed tremendous strength and class, while Trump looked like a baby!

Sure it's heading that way. 😑

I'm really starting to wonder if it's true, that Trump has been a Russian asset for many years, as I've been reading recently. He's incredibly stupid, yet he craves adulation above all else. It would be extremely easy for them to stroke his ego, and get him to do any bidding they wanted. Shudder.

That's wonderful! Grassroots efforts are so important! Thanks for the idea.

It’s not a coincidenceβ€”it’s a warning.

God bless you Mary. As I'm writing this I'm watching your show, which is another thing that keeps me sane. I appreciate your intelligence, forthrightness, and I grimace with you at the horror. But you have beautiful things too! Your guitar, flowers, the sunny window. Thank you for it all!

OMG. I still wonder if the orange ass is responsible. Could a lack of, or shoddy maintenance work due to understaffing, have contributed?

So sad. I would not be surprised to see public executions. The Magas are thirsty for doing away with the "libtards", and if Trump celebrated that, they would too.

I agree, but how? We've all fought so hard, and it feels hopeless. I want to fight, I just seriously don't know how.

It makes me sick how people still worship Trump and Elon, and feel they can do no wrong. I'm horrified that our founding fathers sacrifices are in vain. So tragic.

Hmm, Elon obviously can't take the heat! Like Trump, his enormous ego is fragile and he can't handle the tiniest negativity. What a weird guy!

So Vance wants him to be free to have him destroy our lives instead. Got it!

If I had a dollar for all of the Magas who thought Trump would lower the cost of gas and groceries, I'd be rich! Such delusion!

It's about time! While I appreciate his idealism in wanting to work across the aisle, there's no room for compromising with evil!

What's up with Karoline Leavitt's rapid blinking today? She looked petrified, and as if she didn't believe a word she was saying.

Oops I changed what I was writing, and didn't correct my sentence. I started to write that he may as well turn Maga and be done with it, then I changed it to him being a wolf in sheep's clothing. I don't think he's Maga? Yet πŸ˜“

Yup! I quit following him, and subscribing to his newsletter. He may as well turned into a wolf in sheep's clothing!

Remember:

The tariffs aren’t about economics, and DOGE isn’t about fiscal responsibility.

They are both about β€’β€’psychopathology**.

This sums it up, aside from fighting with the majority of people in the US as well.

I was at a restaurant two days ago, and a guy at the bar was talking loudly about wanting to see migrants getting shot at the border, live streamed. The bartender laughed, and said they needed to have the news on. Last time I give them my business! So sick of the zero empathy, HS bully mentality!

The past several days have proven without a shadow of a doubt that Project 2025 is real and underway.

And those who warned America about it were right.
