For those saying “oh but the cabinet are all sycophants.” Yes. We know.
It’s called PRESSURE. You pressure the system until something gives. Micro cracks in the wall until some bricks start to come loose.

The 25th Amendment must be invoked by the cabinet. I’m all for pressuring them. Congressional Dems should lead the charge. Not on Bluesky or Threads. Let’s do it.
Invoke the 25th Amendment.

22GW of renewables thwarted or in limbo under Trump ‘blockade’
An Interior Department memo is hampering wind and solar on public lands. It’s one of many federal actions slowing the build-out of cheap, clean energy.
