So many of my Twitter friends have migrated here, so I decided to take the plunge. I still haven’t left Twitter yet, but I wanted to have a backup in case it becomes too dangerous to stay there. I hope I can connect with my Twitter peeps here!

Between unprovoked and foolish trade wars, threatening our allies, eliminating foreign aid, gutting our civil service, preparing to weaken the intel community and FBI, placing inexperienced clowns in key nat sec positions, and supporting our enemies’s agenda, we are weaker by far today than on 1/19.

We'll have to learn what people before us did in similar situations. And what people today in other countries are doing (see Serbia)
Relentless protests everywhere, every day will be part of the solution. Strikes. Civil disobedience too...
But people seem more numb than outraged. We just gotta start

This is not just a coup and a Constitutional crisis. It is a national security catastrophe for the United States from which there is no assurance we will ever fully recover. Not hyperbole. If foreign enemies had landed troops on our shores it’s unlikely they would’ve done as much damage as fast.

Make no mistake, America is under attack. Our rivals are gaining strength. Russian support for Trump is paying off exactly as they had planned. This is not merely a bonus associated with their election interference. It is phase 2 of the same operation.

It is quite the fragile god who needs political power to preserve and enforce their will.
It is quite the powerful God who is born in poverty, partners with the poor, washes feet, heals the sick, advocates for the oppressed, is unjustly killed and still changes the entire world.

There will only be a showdown if someone stands up to Trump. So far, all I see is that everyone entrusted with the role of being “guardrails” is simply rolling over.
🚨 Big scoop: Trump team is considering using Elon Musk’s efficiency commission to slash spending unilaterally — without Congress needing to vote.
That’d set up a major constitutional showdown over the power of the purse.

Actual serious countries that are democracies require someone to be a government employee, & confirmed by the parliament, in order to conduct foreign policy. We, however, don’t seem to any longer care about the law, constitution, or democratic accountability, bc we are a deeply unserious country.
