Broligarchs like Elon Musk and Peter Thiel are going to have a heavy hand in crafting Trump's policies to concentrate their wealth and power and f*** everyone else, the country, and the global economy. [🎁 Article]

I have a bullhorn, so I will be leading chants at today's rally. Do you? Or perhaps you have a good loud voice...we need you.

I'm going to include a few ideas & hope you'll add some chants in this thread, too.

“I’m not really a protest kind of person.”

I get it! Me too!

And of course there are other ways to resist. But, the project to save America will require more of us to get out of our comfort zones and make ourselves seen and heard.

There is POWER in our numbers.
We’ve got this!

MAGA still not understanding what is on the horizon because of Trump’s tariffs. Here is information about price increases by Canon & Nikon.

Anyone applauding these tariffs is either completely ignorant or gaslighting the public.

Dan Satterfield o 9h • ©
Both Canon and Nikon are going to have to raise prices by 24 to 49%! This will only apply to customers in the USA.
Since most of their manufacturing is in Japan, and Vietnam, and China the tariffs will be steep. Cameras in stock now and other equipment like lenses, camera bags and tripods are all going to really jump.
IF you are thinking of buying camera gear, then get it TOMORROW. Items in stock will not be subject to the tariffs.
Note: Canon or Nikon could get around the tariff by manufacturing here in America. To do that would require building a separate factory here and that could not possibly be done in under 4 years.
Japan hourly wage is around 7.50 per hour. 6.50 in China, and $28.50 in the USA.
Those cameras are going to be very expensive if made in America.
They won't be though, because Canon and Nikon know the tariffs will be gone in 4 years.
Also, they sell cameras globally, and they are not going to build a special factory in America.
We are just are not that big of a country.
China, India? Yes.

Looking at this sign shows how overwhelming the attacks have been by Trump& Musk.

There doesn’t seem to be one part of our lives & Government that they haven’t touched.

I’m already seeing videos from rallies & it makes me so proud.

What seems like chaos is often by design. Every so-called mistake distracts while someone else profits. This isn’t ignorance—it’s a strategy wrapped in confusion. The joke isn’t on them. It’s on us. #MomSky !
