Orel Protopopescu please add to this: massive cuts to scientific research, US Aid, & money already appropriated for after school & summer programs. Deportations of asylum seekers, green card holders & foreign students, cuts to student loans & grants, arrests of people exercising their free speech rights, firing of experts & replacing them with loyalists, hiring of Jan 6 pardoned thugs for weaponization of “homeland security” & desertion of Ukraine & complicity in the starvation of families trapped in Gaza. Peddling access to the White House, crypto meme coins, etc.

This will not happen on my watch. I am with you. We must fight for our rights and so much more to be returned to us, the people.

This will not happen on my watch. Not in my name. He is not my President. Not now, not ever. He is not Presidential. The rest of the unprofessional clowns 🤡 in his unprofessional circus 🎪 aren’t fit to hold office! Give me 5 minutes with any one of them! This MURDER BILL will ruin my life & that of my family & millions more. It’s the worst day in American 🇺🇸 history.

Thank you, thank you for an articulate condemnation of trump; a neww Declaration of Human Rights. We will remain determined to obliterate him and his administration. Every cruelty will be our fuel to break through and take back our nation. We will not be stopped.

My 6x great-grandfather answered the call to arms at Lexington & Concord. I refuse to stand by and watch Trump and his minions tear apart the fabric of our precious democracy! We must resist, in every way possible, “securing the blessings of Liberty for ourselves, and our posterity”.

Thank you for this beautifully written piece, on what has turned out to be not a day of celebration, but one of mourning for the country we used to be.
