Boycott US

Overview:
The community dedicated to boycotting the US until they stop fascism, restore full democracy and start following international law.
Americans have a moral obligation to resist Donald Trump and project 2025 at every turn.
America is a flawed democracy currently being ruled by oligarchs. Stop the backslide! Dont let America become the next Hungary.
America needs to challenge the court rulings of citizens united v. fec and shelby county v. holder, protect the media, implement independent district drawing, and the single transferable vote so they don't end up having people stay home in life-changing elections because they cannot vote for their favourite candidate.

That's like saying the New York Giants play in NJ
It's about 8 miles from the stadium to midtown.
It's about 26 miles from Dulles to DC.
My daily commute?
Toronto's main international airport is in Mississauga, about 17 miles (28km) from downtown Toronto.
It's pretty normal for metropolitan areas to span more than one state, and many municipalities, served by a single international airport that is in the suburbs of that major city.
The point is that if you're flying international in or out of DC, IAD is literally your closest option. And if you're flying there, it's probably because you're visiting DC and not some Civil War battlefield in rural Virginia. Functionally speaking, it's DC's airport.
