So what do we do? Open to ideas, but:

- Support the ACLU & other orgs.

- Local officials matter more than ever. City Council. Local prosecutors. They are our last line of defense. VOTE.

- Encourage vulnerable people in places like TX, FL, LA, MS to consider moving. Seriously. Heartbreaking.

The guardrails are off.

Imagine: In July Trump issues an order to ban all Muslims from entering the US. MA, NYC, and other local jurisdictions might be able to pause the order. But in Texas? Louisiana?

In short, this a huge win for lawless power. And a terrifying moment for the rule of law.

When Trump tried to rip kids from their parents at the southern border, it was a nationwide injunction that helped stop it.

When he tried to end DACA, sabotage the census, ban Muslims, and gut environmental laws national injunctions saved lives and stopped irreparable harm.

Now? It’s chaos.
