Yosemite National Park’s annual budget is around $30 million, as of 2021.
They spent $25 million just so POSOTUS could attend the Super Bowl and Daytona 500.

Face the death penalty.
Despite all of this, the German people didn't have a similar historical parallel to look upon as a warning.
Most Germans never acted like the sky was falling.
Most just went along with their lives as usual, until many of their lives were snuffed out. By the time /12

Read history. Oligarchs have owned and controlled our government before. They’ve attacked oppressed groups, gone after migrants, and enacted mass violence against workers who dared resist. But people kept fighting. They organized. They built power. What we need to do is not unprecedented.

Trump acting like he is the CEO of the U.S. doesn’t mean he is. He literally is not allowed to do much of what he is declaring. He is neither the CEO nor king. Do not comply in advance.

When you feel yourself becoming complacent or surrendering to hopelessness or apathy, remember that everything that exists today exists because someone(s) dreamt it up and decided to put in the work to make it a reality. We can create new ways of doing things, new ways of being, new worlds.
