The argument that Trump will do whatever he wants and no one can stop him is really fucking boring

Then go protest at a news room.
Blockade them so all the satellite cars are on their parking lot. Then there is nothing to report about except you.
Be disruptive.
Be creative.

From here it seems you’re all pretty much fine with it.

ELON MUSK is running the treasury?

Any American not on some doorstep protesting this deserves to have his social security paid out in DOGE coin. (And pay taxes in Yuan)

I think you’ll find this isn’t true. People have been criticizing him since he stepped on to a public stage. All it does is draw his fire. We need something a lot more effective.

“Draw his fire” ?

The guy is hardly heavy artillery. If you guys aren’t standing up to some guy’s mean tweets, I think you should start to despair.

Ask a trans person or an immigrant (really any recent immigrant) if Trump is ‘hardly heavy artillery’.

Anyway, in the despair department, I’m, like, the queen. Despair doesn’t mean you don’t fight.

I have been daily emailing my congress idiots.
No replies though.

I thought that maybe for once we could get some of those affluent, white, cis dudes to stand up.

That may be still true in Brussels, and I envy you. People not in the MAGA camp realized on DAY ONE when T***p got handed the keys, that he and MAGA aren’t working for anyone but themselves.

I am full-on terrified, and I apologize again to the rest of the world, especially Canada and Latin America.

Call your representatives.
Anything digital is easyto ignore.

All of the calls go to full voice mails
Tried that Monday

If you’re expecting the same media which made it its goal to get Trump reelected to honestly cover the state of public sentiment about him, you’re going to be disappointed.

It may be boring, but it’s getting more and more true every day.

I bit the bullet and sent messages to my reps via snail mail. I also used “FOREVER” stamps with a U.S. flag on them, and put them on upside down.

I’m in red Florida, and not sure I should paint a target on myself by contacting my “representatives”.

Lame. I’m in northern FL and I contacted my (red) congressman this afternoon, specifically to object to Musk’s involvement in people’s personal business. So did some of my neighbors.

I don’t want the families of the primary hackers to get doxxed, unless they were responsible for these young people getting the jobs, but here are their names, via the National Park Service.

Well, out of anyone who can potentially stop Trump, you can count the CIA out:

At what point can we declare the OP to be painfully wrong?

2 months seems optimistic at this point.

Last week?

I find it hard to believe it matters.

I know, but it made me feel a little better.

It turns out it’s not boring, it’s “interesting times”
