I no longer feel safe on social media from here in the U.S. under MAGA fascism… this will be my FINAL political post. If you are a foreigner please do NOT come here… To my international friends, please remember 75,017,613 people (48.3% of voters) tried to stop this dark slide into authoritarianism.

Today we march, from the Atlantic / Gulf of Mexico, to the Pacific… from our Northern borders with our Canadian cousins, to the Rio Grande and our partners in the South. We reject MAGA hate, fascism, and xeonophobia! We will not give up our Democracy, rule of law, and Constitutional rights! 🇺🇸 🗽

What a lovely day! Elon Musk is leaving Government and a Federal Court ruled Trump doesn’t have the constitutional authority to issue tariffs under his made up “State of Emergency.” This isn’t over, and it will go to the Supreme Court, but let’s at least relish this moment while it lasts.

Despite some isolated counter-protestors in cybertrucks, we had far more people driving by waving, smiling, cheering, honking approval, and giving us thumbs up signals. Colorado proud! 🇺🇸 🗽 ⚖️ #RejectMAGA #ResistFascism #RuleofLaw #RockyMountainHigh

To quote: “The homegrowns are next," Trump told Bukele in the Oval Office “You gotta build about five more places. ... It's not big enough." To be clear, Trump intends to send U.S. citizens to overseas concentration camps with little to no due process or judicial review.😱 #RejectMAGA #ResistFascism

I don’t think I can handle watching any more of this MAGA fascist pep rally… the lies, hate, and ignorance on display are literally making me sick to my stomach. (Made it over an hour but am turning this Mussolini nut job and his disgusting enablers off.) 😡 #MakeAmericaIntelligentAgain #FightFascism

Sorry Donny, but there is no such thing as “illegal protestors” - I think this little post just gave a hell of a lot of people even more reason to excercise their constitutional right under the First Amendment- (Despite what Elon thinks, this isn’t apartheid South Africa - doesn’t work that way.)

As the United States descends into authoritarianism and embraces fascism, here are some international news sources to consider. I would also add in France24 (in English), Al Jazeera, and CNN en Espanol (Spanish speakers) if helpful.
