There aren't many things that can be done to inconvenience the rich that doesn't inconvenience everyone else. Going after private jets would probably be the best, and most popular way to fight back. I just hope there's an administration someday that's actually on the side of the people.

I didn't know grounding private planes specifically was a power the executive branch had, but apparently it does, so that's something that a future progressive administration could use to fight back when the oligarchs try to destroy the social safety net. If we ever get there.

If he's ever removed from office, everything should be taken away from him except being honorary chair of the Kennedy Center. The rest of the board should be returned to normal people, and he should be made to welcome the most LGBT+ friendly lineup of performances in the institution's history.

This is the worst of all outcomes. Services, events, organizations, and jobs that depend on local public funding will cease to exist. Landowners will get wealthier at the expense of renters and new housing. Juneau will become a worse place to live for all of us.
