Say it with me sisters and brothers!

“The MAGA gang [is] desperately trying to characterize this kid who murdered Charlie Kirk as anything other than one of them, and doing everything they can to score political points from it.”

It’s been 19 days since Adelita Grijalva won—and Mike Johnson still refuses to swear her in. The government’s been shut down for 12 days. They can delay, lie, and hide—but the Epstein files aren’t going anywhere. The cover-up is cracking, and they know it.

“I spent three nights and three days in federal custody. During that time, I was never told what I was charged with, was not allowed to shower despite being covered in tear gas and pepper spray, had no phone call to my family, and no access to an attorney.” - George Retes, U.S. citizen and veteran.

I’m a US citizen and a veteran. ICE arrested me for no reason.

Jailed for three days without an explanation or ability to notify anyone, George Retes argues the only path to healing starts with the government taking accountability for its actions.

Every day that passes I am more convinced of two things:

1) This regime’s attempt to consolidate and hold power is going to collapse in truly spectacular fashion

2) That collapse is going to be astoundingly dangerous and destructive

The only way we save our country is through our numbers.

Trump and MAGA don't have the majority, not even close.

Overwhelm them with numbers. Resist everywhere. They are too reckless, incompetent, and self-destructive.

Also, divide and conquer. Many fissures, especially around Epstein.

Go. Be seen, be counted.
The more that show, the more frightened the administration becomes.

Your mere presence may be the straw that breaks the camel’s back.

If you would have described the traits of hard core MAGAs and Trump ten years ago…. Those very same people would have called those people SNOWFLAKES.

Constantly whining, always the victim, always angry at everyone else.

Even the cult knows DonOld was POTUS then.
The lies are so obvious now that even his most ardent support staff cannot convince the crowd.

We are witnessing the death rattle of a pedophile criminal and his cult in real-time.

The President using the military as his personal police force to intimidate American citizens is deeply un-American. This is the behavior of an autocrat. Full stop.

It’s a pattern I’ve recognized in myself and others throughout my adulthood. It’s the ones with enough means that actually follow through, and there are far fewer of them than any would like to admit.

They will “walk” the same way that Hollywood actors “leave” the country. Hint: They won’t; they’re just as addicted to paychecks as you and I.

What if, hear me out, but what would happen if an 85% majority of the courts JUST BELOW SCOTUS overrule and IGNORE their rulings? Push SCOTUS out from underneath.
