"The feeling that nothing matters, the system is fucked, there’s no point in engaging or organizing - that is the most powerful weapon they have right now. Because that feeling stops you from opposing them. From interrupting as they reach out, yet again, to take something you love or need."
We failed to stop fascism's rise. Now it's dancing about on the White House lawn. I don't know how to fix all this but I do know that the shit we've been doing won't get us out of this one.

The new "sex and gender" executive order does nothing but make trans people's lives more difficult than they already are. Trans prisoners will be raped more, trans federal employees will be discriminated against more, and trans travelers will be subject to unneeded hassle.

For nothing.

Don't forget that just hours before he took office, Trump became a crypto billionaire by shilling a worthless meme coin.

And of course he didn't divest from any of his other businesses.

Is it any wonder that ethics are out the window in the second Trump administration?
Trump has repealed a Biden executive order mandating ethical behavior from administration employees.

The order told federal workers to:
-Not accept gifts from lobbyists
-Not take other bribes
-Not lobby for two years after government work
-And more

Now those rules are gone.

If you’re feeling despair today, I understand.

But Trump’s second term will expose a reality that's been hidden from many Americans: the raw, stinking power of the American oligarchy.

I’m hopeful that America will see this reality for what it is and respond to it. youtu.be/bepjl3orz1A?...

Withdrawal requires the president to submit a letter to the U.N. and would take effect in one year.
