6. Beware of false attacks
Bondi is an election denier. Patel has an enemies list. Trump has promised retribution. When a Trump foe is under investigation, be skeptical. When you read leaks against pro-democracy leaders, consider that it may be part of an effort to discredit their work.

A resolution condemning the words of a cleric. The first amendment has just been threatened by elected fundagelicals who can't hear the truth, especially if it offends the Felon in the oval. Tell your congressional representatives this can't stand

Imagine watching that sermon and thinking it was "nasty." We elected a man who thinks mercy has no place in a house of worship. God help us.

Am I the only one predicting that Clarence Thomas is going to resign during the Trump term and Trump will be selecting the highly compromised Judge Aileen Cannon to fill that seat? She has already proven her value to him in the Florida confidential documents case. Am I wrong? #supremecourt

X has ~18m daily USA users. @bsky.app, ~1.5m.
Is it worth 20 MINS a day to proactively recruit and bring your friends, neighbors,relatives, businesses, anyone who is or could be a user, to @bsky.app?
If Bluesky ends up with more users than the others, you destabilize musk, zuck, trump.

Don’t ever forget this: In the moment, on January 6, 2021, EVERY American knew what they were witnessing was wrong. EVERY American knew in real time what was happening was so very wrong.
Sadly, four years later, way too many Americans have erased what they saw, knew, & believed that day.

In 1979, Jimmy Carter installed solar panels on the White House. In 1986, Ronald Reagan tore them down along w/Carter’s clean energy funding.
This sums up the difference between the two men & political parties. Investing in solutions for the future vs canceling progress to score political points.

You know what you won't see tomorrow? A riot at the U.S. Capitol. A violent attempt to overthrow an American election. You know WHY you won't see that tomorrow? Because Kamala Harris did what Donald Trump is humanly incapable of doing. She put her country first and accepted the will of the people.
