When someone like Vindman is saying this, things are dark. He’s not posting 4th hand information.
Don’t consult your hope when assessing what’s up ahead. It will lead you astray. Base your plans on reality.

Not all resistance wears a bullhorn.
Some write letters.
Some carry water.
Some raise their voices.
Some raise the spirits.
Some paint banners, others hold them.
Every role matters.
This is a chorus, not a solo.
Show up how you can.
We need you all.

I want to take a moment to share an excerpt from the Declaration of Independence's grievances against King George III.

If social security payments stop going out, the pitchforks and torches are going to come out. The real test is whether hardcore Trumpers will turn on him over not getting checks. I'm not convinced they will.
The former head of the Social Security Administration says he expects the agency to miss on some payments over the next three months, interrupting some people's benefits, for the first time in Social Security's history of eight decades: www.cnbc.com/2025/03/01/d...
Social Security has never missed a payment. DOGE actions threaten 'interruption of benefits,' ex-agency head says
New changes at the U.S. Social Security Administration may put its ability to deliver monthly benefit checks at risk, former agency head says.

We’ve been hearing from many you that when you call your reps about the budget resolution, Republican staffers are now pushing back to claim the budget does NOT cut Medicaid, Medicare, SNAP, etc. Clearly a memo went out to all Republicans to have their staff gaslight their constituents... (1/x)
