These are not some silly side plots. This drumbeat of accommodation and acquiescence legitimizes the Trump regime. It signals normalcy. How bad could it possibly be if Democratic leaders and liberal elites act friendly while continuing politics as usual? We need better.

A short thread on what refusal to comply can look like, with specifics, examples, and ideas for what the future may hold. Actually IDK if it's gonna be short, but it's gonna be specific, so read on if you're curious.

Remember, by elevating incompetent fascists like Hegseth, Gabbard, and Gaetz, the aim is to demoralize us. It's ok to be horrified by the injustice and insanity of it all, but instead of feeling helpless and withdrawing, let’s get angry and fight.

In 2012 Republicans lost an election they were convinced they were going to win. It resulted in the famous ‘autopsy’ It’s time Democrats did the same thing with the fastest shifting group of voters open.substack.com/pub/greatt…

Democrats, we need your help now. Many Democrats’ ballots were rejected mostly for signatures not “matching”. We can keep the US House—and control the BUDGET—if we get these ballots counted. Phone bank to let these voters know, get them counted, win those House seats!

The great genius of the Putin-Musk-Trump ticket was to disguise historical geopolitical capture as standard partisan conflict. The bulk of Republicans and indeed the overwhelming majority of the American public has no idea of the severity or consequences of what has happened.

Within the last 2 weeks they promised mass deportation, no vaccines, eliminating the department of education, and economic pain, and folks are like “she should’ve ran a better campaign.”

Our nation’s democratic system functioned last night and we have a new President-elect.  All Americans are bound, whether we like the outcome or not, to accept the results of our elections. We now have a special responsibility, as citizens of the greatest nation on earth, to do everything we can to support and defend our Constitution, preserve the rule of law, and ensure that our institutions hold over these coming four years. Citizens across this country, our courts, members of the press and those serving in our federal, state and local governments must now be the guardrails of democracy.
