The United States presidential policy has become Al Capone’s Chicago in my grandfather’s time.
My grandfather had a cigar store. Capone used to come in. There’s a photo of my mother as a child sitting on the floor between Capone’s legs. He wore white spats. My grandfather paid him or his representatives regularly. Thus we are alive today.
We need to get rid of this gang of thieves before we become Russians - sure we are Numba One, the greatest, afraid of chaos, wanting only to be allowed to have private lives, while the world burns and floods around us.
I do not hate. If most of you didn’t vote for this shit show, I.e. you mean over 50%, then how did he claim the President’s throne? So he just swooped in and claimed it illegally. And you are letting him get away with it?!
I'm not sure the majority have a clue. I don't know your age, but Civics has been gone from public education for years. And, unless you looks for it, where else will a young person learn these things?
The revealing sentence in your comment is, "I feel no sympathy." That describes pathology. Additionally, sympathy is not something sought or needed. And as for your reply to Francesca Cee, for someone to say they do not hate and at the same time do not feel sympathy describes an automaton - or just a bullshitter.
I agree, but all of you writers keep saying the same thing, WE have to do something, and millions of people are, but constantly blaming “The people” is disingenuous! We vote for all the members of congress…and all of the representatives voted into office are bound by the oath they took to defend the constitution against exactly what is happening! No democrat has done anything except whine and stamp their feet! Impeach the Supreme Court, impeach trump. We have all these checks and balances and no body does a damn thing!
Tempertantrump, the PR man for Project 2025 doesn’t outlaw voting for MAGA but block all others. Press is not made illegal for those he chooses, but closes the door for all others. Fascism 101. Free speech is not illegal, but is now behind paywalls.

It’s on us, people. This is on us.

Precisely correct.

“There comes a time when silence means betrayal” Martin Luther King
At this time in history each of us needs to speak up and speak out— otherwise
remaining Silent Bystanders will be a betrayal of our country and democracy.
America deserves what it gets. With its eyes wide open and knowing full well, it voted for fascism. I feel no sympathy.
How nice. Most of us didn't vote for this shit show. Do you hate all the people of any country with a dictator? Ignorant.

And it sounds like what you're advocating for us collective punishment. You're no better than the fascists in Washington.

How much are you willing to give up? Which child? Which freedom?
