This is resistance. This is not obeying the illegitimate dictatorship in advance, unlike @JoeBiden & Merrick Garland dropping federal prosecution of Trump, which no Constitutional provision requires them to do. www.newsweek.com/wyoming-repu...

NEW: In order to offset the enormous cost for their tax cuts for the wealthy, Trump's advisers and congressional Republicans have begun preliminary discussions about making significant cuts to Medicaid, food stamps, and other federal safety net programs. wapo.st/40SuTMR

Over 130 civil liberties and other organizations oppose a bill that would allow any administration to target nonprofits without due process. Tell your Representative they must vote no on this dangerous expansion of executive power:

Now entering stage 5: nihilism. 'Woohoo, watch it all burn!' 'Teehee, the Democrats are getting what they deserve!' 'Haha, you think you can stop it?' 'Let's go smash windows and burn police cars!' + bsky.app/profile/nvre...

Project Underdog organizes immigrants and fights deportations. This will be a test of the resistance. They are coming for the immigrants first.

Based on many conversation with our neighbors we believe that most support mass deportations. We fear that the arrival of ICE agents & the US army on Roosevelt Ave on Jan 20 will be celebrated-not resisted by locals-just like Operation Restore Roosevelt was welcomed by most. #FightDeportationsNYC

Immigrants, their families and communities are likely to be the first targets for MAGA's planned regime of violence & terror. Organizing US citizens to nonviolently confront Trump's shock troops should perhaps be the highest priority for NVR. We can shelter, shield, confront, document & witness.

The programs highlighted in this WP report are not necessarily high priorities for demolition by Trump, but they are vulnerable under the slogan of "defunding programs that Congress no longer authorizes." Turns out our government has been held together with ductape, string and good faith.

Every time they show a picture of this guy with his shirt on, they are hiding the truth. "his nomination's viability" depends on whether the Senate, Democrats included, rolls over and lets Trump push this putz in. Which may also depend on whether we do too. Sometimes calling your Senator is NVR.

Gene Sharp taught that to fight dictatorship you need to identify its pillars of support. Right now the main pillar of support for the nascent MAGA dictatorship is the false narrative that America "shifted" to the right in this election and gave Trump a mandate. Stop believing and repeating it.

Trump's nominees for Justice & Defense are the most dangerous to democracy. Matt Gaetz for AG means he intends to use the DoJ as his weapon, and is naming a disgraced national clown to be his yes-man. Hegseth's mission is to fire the generals & replace them with willing tools. Will Democrats obey?

Democrats are supporting a GOP bill that would enable Trump to crush nonprofits accused of supporting "terrorism," whether that means protesting Israeli atrocities or engaging in nonviolent confrontation and civil disobedience. This is a Dictatorship Enabling Law. They will push many more.

Some groups are pushing to use the Alien Enemies Act as a turbocharged deportation and detention power. We explain the law, why it’s ripe for abuse, and why lawmakers must repeal it now.

You heard it from Senator Wyden! Call your US senators and tell them to pass the PRESS Act before Trump takes over! www.wired.com/story/press-...

Can shaming the world’s worst ‘climate criminals’ save the planet? Climate Defiance activists direct their fury at the rich and powerful. They’ve also started working with them. grist.org/protest/clim...

A guide to various flavors of transhumanist fascism under which various billionaires and insane ideological extremists are plotting to rule America and the world.

Gene Sharp taught that to fight dictatorship you need to identify its pillars of support. Right now, the main pillar of support for the nascent MAGA dictatorship is the Big Spin, the false narrative that America "shifted" to the right in this election. Stop believing it. Stop repeating it.

This was last night, but Indivisible has more events lined up, click on link. Indivisible organizes at mass scale and has a coherent political strategy. Whether they are prepared to meet the challenge of violent authoritarianism remains to be seen. www.mobilize.us/indivisible/

First the shock and disbelief. Then, the finger pointing and score settling. Now the worst: the popcorn, as we watch Trump name a rogues' gallery of thugs, extremists, foreign assets and incompetent toadies to run our federal government. Don't give in to dictatorship. Resist!

MAGAs claim a mandate for their violent extremist plans. Too many of us seem ready to give them that power. It's not their country, it's still ours. MAGA did not grow. Join and help organize the nonviolent resistance.

Oh hey, HR 9495 didn't pass in the House! Shout out to anyone who took the time to call or write their reps about this: www.aljazeera.com/news/2024/11...

Here are the Dems who voted yes on HR 9495:

from:@car0linehaskins X Hours after Trump won, ICE asked companies to submit plans for how they’d expand ICE’s system of GPS trackers + databases surveilling “noncitizens” awaiting trial or deportation. Gov contractors said ICE’s timing was probably not a coincidence: www.wired.com/story/ice-su...

Do not grieve. Do not give up on America just because the same number of assholes who voted for Trump in 2020 did it again in 2024. Do not expect the Democrats to lead the resistance. Do not stay home and await further information. Study nonviolence. Organize. Be the resistance.
