Once again, Trump is stepping all over our Constitution. How much longer are we going to let him get away with this? How much longer are we going to put up with this? He can’t just deport or imprison people he doesn’t like, but he’ll certainly try. We need to put a stop to this now!

Durham, N.C. is underwater. Climate change is here. It’s looking like America is going to lose a lot of land to sea rise, maybe a lot more than we thought and a lot sooner. This is serious business. Wake up people! Wake up before there is no more land left, and everyone has drowned in the sea.

Trump and his whole administration are a crime ring of mobsters who all need to be removed from our government immediately. We have a gangster along the order of a modern day Al Capone running our country. This can not continue! It’s high time to do this!

At Camp Mystic, they should have evacuated everyone the day before. You don’t wait until 3 hours before an event hits to get everyone out. Even if you weren’t expecting a lot of flooding, where 8 year old little girls are involved, they shouldn’t have taken any chances.

So there have now been four 100 year rain events in the last seven days. Rivers have flooded to over 20 feet in 45 minute time frames, in Central Hill Country, Texas; Ruidoso, New Mexico; Central North Carolina; and Chicago and Cook county, Illinois. It’s climate change, folks!

Climate change is real, and hundreds of thousands more people will die from it if we don’t start addressing it with our energy policies. The earth doesn’t care whose fault it is, she will have her vengeance on all of us because of Trump with his drill baby drill policies.

Everyone, keep on fighting! Don't lose hope or get discouraged. It takes time to depose a dictator and his government. Be patient, be persistent, be strong! Stay in the fight. We will win. Good will always win out over evil in the end. Never give up or give in. Stay the course. Keep the faith.

I thought you all might be interested in this as the best approach for defeating Trump. I did a Google search on how to defeat an authoritarian government that had already somewhat consolidated their hold on power. The Google search said the following, and I am quoting it: "Challenging an

established authoritarian government is complex and difficult... certain strategies can be potentially effective. These often involve a combination of nonviolent resistance, and utilizing existing institutional avenues."

"Under Nonviolent Resistance:
- Mass Mobilization and Noncooperation.
July 5, 2025 at 11:37 PM
"This is protests, boycotts, and strikes and other forms of civil disobedience. The goal is to disrupt the regimes control and make the country ungovernable for the regime. It is also to show widespread opposition and to challenge the regime."

- "Building Solidarity and Networks
July 5, 2025 at 11:37 PM
- Challenging Propaganda and Censorship
- International Pressure and Support"

"Under Institutional Resistance (when applicable):
- Utilizing Checks and Balances (if they still exist)
- Fortifying Democratic Institutions (for the ones that remain
independent)"
July 5, 2025 at 11:36 PM
"Focusing on nonviolent strategies and leveraging any available institutional avenues are generally considered the most viable and ethical approaches for challenging an established authoritarian government, while minimizing harm."

"Successfully resisting fascism often requires a long-term strategy

and sustained effort."

"The effectiveness of any particular method depends on the specific context and characteristic of the fascist government and the society in which it operates."

"While violence can be a tactic, many advocate for prioritizing nonviolent methods due to their ethical
July 5, 2025 at 11:34 PM
advantages and historical successes."

I'm afraid we should have acted sooner. The longer the authoritarian has to cement his new fascist government in place, the harder it becomes to remove him. And Trump is pretty far along in instituting his destruction of and changes to our democratic government
July 5, 2025 at 11:32 PM
However, it's never too late for us to fight Trump, to fight an authoritarian in power. Better late than never. It just makes it a little harder that's all. But history does prove that nonviolent struggle works against authoritarian governments. That's why I keep saying for everyone who can attend
July 5, 2025 at 11:32 PM
a protest to please do so. It really matters a lot. Ours is a people powered movement. Trump doesn't own America, he never will no matter how hard he tries. We don't even own America as individuals. America is owned collectively by ALL the people, all its citizens. That's what "We The People" means.
July 5, 2025 at 11:31 PM
I've said it before, we far outnumber the MAGA's in this country. There are simply more of us than there are of them. We need to all rise up and roar! We need to make our voices heard, make it clear that we will not tolerate these mafia criminals, these fascists running our country.
July 5, 2025 at 11:30 PM
We will kick them all out. Imagine if we could get 70,000 people all marching on Washington DC! Wouldn't that be a sight, that would really be something! I don't think we will be able to exactly make that happen, but I do want to say that I think we are doing really well in the turnout for these
July 5, 2025 at 11:28 PM
protests. I want to give a great big thank you to everyone who showed up to a protest yesterday for July 4, 2025, and for the whole weekend as well! I appreciate you all so much! You make me feel proud to be an American. I encourage every one of you to keep on fighting for our democracy.
July 5, 2025 at 11:28 PM
America is worth fighting for. Our values are worth fighting for. Let's make the 405,399 soldiers who sacrificed their lives in WW11 proud of us. They died so that we would have a free country to live in, a democracy. They should not have died in vain. Let's prove worthy of their sacrifice for us.

I like to call things as I see them, hence my post directly below this one. I don’t mince words, or if I do, it’s only because of censors that all these social media apps have against posting certain words. I don’t want to get my account suspended, so I’ll look for substitute words.
July 5, 2025 at 8:41 PM
I see a whole lot of people posting and talking on all these social media platforms, but not a single one with any suggested organized actions as to how we might defeat this fascist takeover of our government. I’ve got to admit that I’m tired of all the talk, and want to see some actions that work.
July 5, 2025 at 8:35 PM
Yes, this is tragic, but we should be looking at why it’s happening. Extreme weather events, hurricanes, tornadoes, floods, wildfires, droughts all are happening more frequently and at greater severity. Climate change is real. This makes our Federal forecasting agencies more
July 5, 2025 at 6:10 PM
needed AND FULLY FUNDED than ever. Trump and his Congressional MAGA Republicans have virtually eliminated most of our national agencies designed to notify and protect the public in case of weather emergencies. Of course more people will die as a result. This is shameful! Deadly!
