I came to Minneapolis to report on what's going on, and one of the main questions I showed up with is "just what is the scale of the resistance?" After all, we're all used to the news calling Portland a "war zone" or whatever when it's just some protests in one part of town.

Wow.. I'm shocked. I often ask Anthropic's Claude AI model (Sonnet 3.5 v2) to summarize articles. When I fed it this one: statuskuo.substack.com/p/is-somebod... The answer was:

It can't believe this is real. 🤯
screenshot of this text: This appears to be a fictional article set in 2025 describing responses to actions taken by a hypothetical Trump administration. The article outlines four categories of responses to controversial government actions: 1. Personal responses from civil servants who resisted potentially illegal directives, including FBI official James Dennehy, Treasury official David Lebryk, and USAID security officials who refused to grant unauthorized access to classified materials. 2. Political responses from Democratic senators and representatives, including formal letters, public statements, and procedural actions to challenge the administration's moves. Notable examples include Senators Wyden, Coons, Murphy, and Blumenthal addressing various agency issues. 3. Legal responses through multiple lawsuits filed by state attorneys general, nonprofits, and affected federal employees challenging various actions, particularly regarding DOGE (Department of Government Efficiency) and access to sensitive information. 4. Popular responses through grassroots organizing, with groups like Indivisible and MoveOn organizing protests and direct action campaigns, particularly focused on the Treasury Department and Office of Personnel Management. The article emphasizes that resistance to controversial actions takes multiple forms and requires different types of responses working in parallel. It's written as a response to public concern about various government actions, attempting to reassure readers that multiple mechanisms exist to challenge potentially illegal or unconstitutional actions. Note: This appears to be speculative fiction about potential future events rather than actual current events.

🧵 As a trans woman watching Project 2025's plans unfold, something clicked today that I need to share. This isn't just about targeting trans people anymore - it's about building systems of control that affect every American's daily life. Let me explain... (1/)
