Mass movements is what works - general strikes and mass demonstrations. Filling the streets. It serves notice on the oppressors that you're not at home cowering - and you get high being around thousands who're just as committed as you. Doesn't take special equipment, doesn't cost anything and it feels GREAT to be doing the right thing...
As a Canadian, I am watching your nation with horror. If Trump manages to turn your country into an autocracy, I fear that he will then turn his sights here (he has already expressed that desire). We will resist, but let's face it, we are a nation of 39,000,000 people and probably the results would be disastrous for us. Your citizens would suffer as well. Rise up, make yourselves heard and stand up for your democracy. Reclaim your place in the world as a symbol of liberty, hope, and compassion.
We need to stand up too! We have power! We need to wield it. YOUR money is a great to protest. See the following.
Please SHARE: Time to stand up Canadians!
Make your voice heard. There are currently 3 petitions in Canada regarding Donald Trump and Elon Musk. You can sign these petitions online. Your signatures will be recorded in the Canadian House of Commons. It will take about 10 minutes to do all three. Please forward to everyone you know. Our voices matter!
1. E 5345 would forbid Donald Trump from entering Canada based on his criminal record and his threat to our sovereignty.
2. E 5353 is asking the Canadian Government to revoke Elon Musk’s Canadian Citizenship and revoke his passport based on his threats toward our sovereignty.
Keep spreading the petition. I just checked the numbers again this morning and they are going up! I will be meeting with my MP on Friday to try to keep these petitions live! Wish me luck!
Remember, we are a founding member of NATO. Any war declared on Canada is a violation of international law, and it is a war declared on all 30+ countries in NATO.
This is an excellent article, thank you for writing it! It is good news indeed. America needs to wake up! There is full-blown autocrat in the White House. You need to fight back hard, and spring is coming! BIG Protests like the ones in Hungary & Serbia are needed everywhere in America! Hopefully they will spread further, into Eastern Europe, Western Europe, Canada, Australia, Greenland, Panama & the rest of the democratic countries! — You must not let Trump serve his full-term. His Administration is so corrupt they will not allow an opposition leader win again, fearing disclosure and prosecution. Please Read & Share!
Americans remember the Declaration of Independence says this: "Governments are instituted among men, deriving their just powers from the consent of the governed, --that whenever any form of Government becomes destructive of these ends, it is the Right of the People to alter or to abolish it, and to institute new Government"
This regime is beyond destructive. It's time we kick them out and install a new administration. That is our right. We need to do this! The election was rigged. We can't lose hope. Be brave and lets fight to save our country from suffering the same fate as current and previous dictatorships ✊️
Election truth alliance .org has proof that musk rigged the election so trump could win. They have charts and graphs and have chief statisticians verify the proof along with other professionals. They used an algorithm to cheat. There's videos in their own words where they admit to cheating. both of them were headed to prison. They're criminals of course they're going to cheat.
Jessica denson - podcasts - lights on, has done podcasts about it too. Jessica said in the constitution an insurrectionist cannot be president, she wants him disqualified and so does everyone else. He is an illegal president. I've emailed jasmine Crockett and a few other reps as well. The American people did not vote for this nightmare.
Please try to help us to get him removed. He should not be President. How can any elections in the future be fair and honest if they get away with what they've done. No elections will be fair in future bc they're cheats. Please help get rid of them before he brings on WW 3
Just filing lawsuits is not enough anymore! We need to do a reverse of January 6th on the White House! These oligarchs don't care about the law and they're doing it anyway! It's finally time to have our boots hit the ground and start flooding their houses! I thought occurred to me, that when we have all of this unity during protests, we should all say a collective prayer at the same time and watch them melt and scream on their way to hell! Prayer is extremely powerful
Sorry, but to paraphrase an old saw, "prayer changes nothing" and neither do thoughts, without action. I am too old to lead this, but someone needs to be organizing action now. I will certainly join and support. The Democratic politicians show no signs that they have a clue. But a lot of us do.
Yes! It’s a very sad day to call for “taking to the streets in massive numbers!
Let’s also hope more plain-spoken leaders like Tim Walz, Bernie, Pete, Murphy, Warren and AOC, can meet people where they live and work!
Get around the country and speak simply, without shouting platitudes, about common problems we face together!
We must overcome the lack of meaningful media coverage, as the mainstream media is controlled by the same forces we are now fighting against!
We must bring our message to the people!
The more people around the country that understand that a conspiracy of wealth is taking over our government, the greater our chance of defending our democracy!
Time is NOT on our side!
We must generate enough public outrage yoyo keep the Supreme Court accountable to the people, to the CONSTITUTION!
Sad is one way to see it. I sure am sad for the targets of this criminality and victims of this mayhem.
I have been holding my breath since Dobbs leaked, expecting Americans to stand up and use the Constitution’s vehicle for redress, non-violent protest. It’s a proven method that got us women’s suffrage, civil rights and the end to the Vietnam War.
I believe that if Democrats had been in the streets for the final 2 years of Biden’s term, letting SCOTUS and the world know that stripping us of well established rights will not stand, we’d have won an electoral victory as well.
Not protesting is what is sad to me. Feeling powerless, or letting other Americans do the hard stuff for us is pathetic.
This is exactly what the gentleman has been talking about.We need massive massive marches in Washington.1 day millions of people.Let's do it America.We need to do it
We citizens must RESIST. It's going to get worse. We need 15 million to march on Congress, the WH, and state Capitols. RESIST. Be Brave. Be Strong. Be Vocal. Have Courage when you speak out like others have done.
Trump is following a take-over playbook from Hungarian dictator Viktor Orban: HUGE marches there! The oligarchy got filthy rich & the masses are Very poor and ill! Yet marches in 6 figures!
I’m old as dirt and twice as dusty and have stood witness to the crimes against humanity by the Republicons for over 50 years. I’ve also seen the complete incompetence and unwillingness of the Democrats to effect a change that would have stopped this coup in its tracks.
But never, NEVER in my life did I think that our Supreme Court, the last bastion of democracy, would be so blatantly corrupt that they would contribute MIGHTILY to the destruction of the U.S. Constitution and all it was supposed to stand for.
Let's not blame groups based on their immutable characteristics (age, gender, race, etc). There are plenty in each of these groups who will support efforts to stop the right wing menace (its not a "Phantom") ;) Generalization, denigration and demonization are their tools, not ours.

Filled this one out a few days ago. Wish more people had seen it.

Lots of voters suppression too, as Greg Palast puts it 'STOLEN' votes. Everyone needs to watch Vigilates, Inc.

I will pray with you! Thanks for this! LOL
Watch and learn, America!
Your turn to march in massive protest in the streets is coming sooner than you think!
Trump is ignoring lower federal court orders in the hopes that the more friendly Supreme Court will save him!
He may be right! The Supreme Court is ultra conservative and stacked in his favor for eroding Congressional authority!
Yet, Trump isgoing far beyond overstepping Congressional authority!
Trump is “disappearing” hundreds of people without due process AND IN VIOLATION OF LOWER COURT ORDERS!
Trump is allowing Musk to use armed force to break into government agencies!
Such Presidential overreach will force the lower courts to start enforcement proceedings under their own powers!
Trump will hand his friends on the SUPREME COURT a choice, me or the judiciary!
How will they vote?
If they support such extreme Presidential powers it will be the end of the Republic!
Wr must take to the streets in enormous numbers before the Supreme Court makes such a terrible mistake !
"We must take to the streets...." Yes! yes!
Yes! It’s a very sad day to call for “taking to the streets in massive numbers!
Let’s also hope more plain-spoken leaders like Tim Walz, Bernie, Pete, Murphy, Warren and AOC, can meet people where they live and work!
Get around the country and speak simply, without shouting platitudes, about common problems we face together!

Not protesting is what is sad to me. Feeling powerless, or letting other Americans do the hard stuff for us is pathetic.
Get Up, Stand Up!
Yes! I agree with you!
We do need to stand up and protest to protect our rights and the rights of others who are more vulnerable!
What’s sad about it is the possibility that Trump will call out his goons and thugs, or the military! Innocent protestors may die!
This is exactly what the gentleman has been talking about.We need massive massive marches in Washington.1 day millions of people.Let's do it America.We need to do it

I am getting old. I hope I live long enough to see the oligarchs fail , to see democracy reign, to see trump and his enablers imprisoned fir life.
Trump is following a take-over playbook from Hungarian dictator Viktor Orban: HUGE marches there! The oligarchy got filthy rich & the masses are Very poor and ill! Yet marches in 6 figures!
Hope you’re right. The Republican Party is in charge and has totally capitulated to TFGs madness and project 2025s authoritarianism.
They’ve started ignoring court orders. Is impeaching and locking up judges next? Because I think it is.
They’ve stripped universities of funding and threaten them with wholesale destruction of said institutions unless they follow the autocratic laws.
They’ve decapitated the heads of all government agencies and military and installed loyalists.
Tell me, who’s left to fight?
The old folks who voted for this?
I’m an old folk and don’t blame this 💩 on me or my friends. We didn’t vote for it and are working against it.
I’m old as dirt and twice as dusty and have stood witness to the crimes against humanity by the Republicons for over 50 years. I’ve also seen the complete incompetence and unwillingness of the Democrats to effect a change that would have stopped this coup in its tracks.
But never, NEVER in my life did I think that our Supreme Court, the last bastion of democracy, would be so blatantly corrupt that they would contribute MIGHTILY to the destruction of the U.S. Constitution and all it was supposed to stand for.
They absolutely, positively, will not stop…unless We the People, do the stopping, Lynn.
Right now the Democratic Party is at 29% approval. TFG is almost 20 points higher.
Drastic changes must be made or the Dems will not reclaim the Senate or the House in 26.
Actually Forget the Senate. It’s never going to happen with this disorganized party.
An independent has a better chance.
The Democrats are completely incapable of stopping this coup! It’s up to US.
Let's not blame groups based on their immutable characteristics (age, gender, race, etc). There are plenty in each of these groups who will support efforts to stop the right wing menace (its not a "Phantom") ;) Generalization, denigration and demonization are their tools, not ours.
Ding dong the Musk has fled,
The cruel Musk,
To Moscow bed.
Ding dong the cruel musk has fled!
Ding dong the Musk has fled,
The cruel Musk,
To planet red.
Ding dong the cruel Musk has fled!
#muskfleestoavoidarrest. #muskovitesjailedforcybercrimes
Great job thank you! Helped me turn my frown upside down ☮️
Orbán’s guest role at the Republican greet and meet your local dictator is a stain on our democracy. Trump lifted this guy up.
Some of us have been out on the streets, even in red states. There have been excellent speakers and a lot of energy.
But there are not enough people. I keep waiting for others to realise this is really happening. Don’t wait until it’s late. ⏰
~15,000–20,000 elected Democrats in the U.S.
Why aren’t they protesting Trump every day?
Cuz they are SCARED little chickenshits.
Yep!👍
Bye Bye MAGA
