“How will we know when we’ve lost our democracy?” The short answer—when we have to ask if speaking up against government injustice puts us in danger, and have to debate whether it is easier to appease than oppose? This is the line we as Americans are quickly approaching…..”

As major law firms capitulate to Trump & offer up $100M in free legal services to appease him—I am refusing to bend the knee to intimidation & instead speaking out publicly.

A definition of normalcy bias: “a cognitive bias which leads people to disbelieve or minimize threat warnings. Consequently, individuals underestimate the likelihood of a disaster, when it might affect them, and its potential adverse effects.”
Regarding the markets plunging abd Trump’s desire to fire Fed Chair Jerome Powell, far too many people still think they’re dealing with a sane person and that he won’t destroy the American economy to feed his own ego and delusions of singular brilliance.

The only thing that’s going to get you fired from a Trump 2.0 cabinet is disloyalty to Trump. No act of incompetence, mismanagement, criminality, or malfeasance can get you fired. As long as you are loyal to Trump, you can pretty much do anything.

This is the state of the media today:
If you state the simple, obvious truth—that the president of the United States is mentally unstable and engages in mentally unstable behavior injurious to the nation and the world—you have to fear for your job.
Pathetic.

Truth. It does not feel good at all.
The truth is, none of us really know what the next four years will look like. It’s incredibly difficult to predict what happens next. It does not feel good.
