It's time for a long and peaceful protest near the Whitehouse until Trump steps down.

This guy is a real piece of shit.
"I don't care what the judges think"
So this means you're voluntarily outlawing yourself, right?
We HAVE to start referring to this guy as a Pakled.
"We are smart. Make us Strong."
I mean, look at him, and listen to him talk. He could be the guy that Star Trek modeled the Pakleds after.
If we survive, the Constitution is going to need a major overhaul. The judiciary and the legislative branches need to have their own enforcement arms.
Sure. That's the answer.
More competing security agencies.
Yeah. I wrote that in a pique of anger but I will let it stay. There need to be some major changes.
Why the fuck are Americans calling their officials czars now? Russia really got their claws in.
According to this article, it's been ongoing since the early 20th century.

Trump taps a border czar. What's a czar and how do they work?

It's an intended insult.
That's what cool people read it as.
That's not how the media and politicians mean it.
No that's what it is, an idiot thinking a nazi tattoo is a point of pride does not make it something to be proud of.
Even though it's correct, what is this AI slob?
You can kiss American democracy goodbye.
It's gone. Whether our society is ready to accept it or not.
Those of us who were repeating ad nauseum that the last 2 elections were really, really important were not fucking around.
Our quality of life is set to decline for the remainder of our lives.
The 2030s are going to be ugly.
Very.
Whether we get rid of Trump and Republicans in 4 years is irrelevant. The nation is still overflowing with stupid people. It won't be long before we vote in another traitorous Republican and we won't have repaired all the damage from this administration by then. So we'll continue trending downwards no matter what. The speed at which we do so might just fluctuate a little.
Violent protests are going to start becoming commonplace in this nation. Homelessness will skyrocket. Retirement will be a thing of the past. It's going to get very, very ugly.
All because Americans can't be bothered to vote responsibly.
Sigh... you wish violent protest would be common.
This country is so neutered on peace messages and frazzled in disinformation we can't even march in a single direction together.
Everyone is one paycheck away from losing everything, and don't want to bank it on the fact that the protest they skip work for will change anything... Because so far they haven't.
Maybe it's time to go door to door asking people to join a march to DC and every capitol?
Sad to say that's right.
