Susan, I understand where you’re coming from, but Democrats should recognize our part in allowing this. We didn’t ask for a verified recount, even in ANY of the Swing states. We didn’t push for legal action as soon as we could have. We are finally engaging, thankfully, and some Republicans have also come to their senses enough to be outraged, and courageous. But the fault lies with all of us.
Speak for yourself. I have been demanding better from my representatives for decades. At the national level, the only “good” Democrats are the Progressives who are castigated by the DNC and “old guard” wealthy “conservatives” of their party
Just speaking generally. I tend to agree with you about the Progressives. They represent the level of change that people were asking for, perhaps a different type, but the energy of movement. We have to take advantage of that energy and clarity, and the new perspectives. We need term limits, and a standard retirement age. They can move to another position, but not run for the House or Senate. We have work to do!
Because they love to toe thr line with stoicsim and professionalism when they don't need to. They didn't want to seem like the party that is now denying that there are fair elections. This was done by the republican regime on purpose so that the Democrats couldn't fight back.
How do we know what really happened in the 2024 election? How do we know what they were able to pull off? Yes the Democrats were in a bad position having to role model, how to accept election results because of what T did in the 2020 election.
How do we even know? Maybe Elon Musk will expose and tell all.
I agree it has all been deliberate. But I disagree with “couldn’t.” What we couldn’t do, was believe that there were that many heartless, ignorant, “me, me, me,” cowards, who wouldn’t keep their oath of allegiance to the Constitution of the United States, but instead to a person who has never fought a battle in his life, where he wasn’t a stinkin’ bully, full of hate for everyone. We could’ve been fighting back all along, but we didn’t. He’s a paper tiger, and we may have waited, but he and his presidency and his sycophant boot lickers will be shredded. The wheel of karma moves slowly sometimes, but ALWAYS gets it right.
I'm afraid we're passing the point of being able to cause "good trouble". With the american gestapo in full force with nothing to stop them, thanks to the unsupreme Court!!!
Not “nothing to stop them”. The “people” outnumber the “Gestapo” by more than 500-to-one, if the MAGAts don’t assist the thugs. Even so, the non-MAGAts outnumber the MAGAts by at least 2-to-1.
I agree. A national strike, for as long as it takes, will work. Impeachment was always the solution, and it should be the goal and mission of every citizen. After impeachment, indictments, convictions and prison should follow.🙏
Of course. Each time the impeachment process is exercised, the cumulative weight of unconstitutional, criminal behavior is greater. Giving the removers more reason, and more cover, another opportunity, to convict and remove. At this time there appear to be no other good options.
“A former President of the United States—currently the Republican front-runner—is threatening a private citizen for exercising a constitutional right: donating to the political party of his choice.”
Chicken in Chief is out of control. I'm no fan of Elon, but if he gets this fool out of the WH, more power to him. Back to petition. The A - Z of crimes is listed. Please Sign and share, donation not mandatory. Thank you in advance.
Chicken in Chief admitted in his NBC Interview, that there are twenty or so in the WH, who will carry out the agenda. General Michael Flynn appears to be in command of various Malitas. Remember Flynn from the first administration?
Ummm yeah. I just went to your thing here to sign all that and it says no donation but then you got your hand out saying chip in three bucks which one is it?
Use/share this spreadsheet as a resource to call/email/write members of Congress, the Cabinet and news organizations. Reach out to your own reps, as well as those in other states on a specific committee important to a topic you’re sharing. Use your voice and make some “good trouble.”
Starlink satellites(LEO), allows for faster data transfer. These satellites operate 342 miles above earth. There are 7,578 satellites currently in orbit. Starlink can directly communicate with mobile devices by bypassing cell towers. The Starlink are designed to be pushed out of orbit in five years time, where they will burn. When Elon said that he helped Trump to win the election, maybe Starlink helped as well.
Starlink is an expensive and perishable system with limited lifespan satellites that pollute the upper atmosphere. As far as I know, there are no federal regulations regarding the disposal of the spent satellites. Some may burn. Some may crash. Who will pay for any related damages?
Not just this administration. Every Administration after Jimmy Carter’s has not been too serious about environmental protection and justice. The polluters are major contributors to political campaigns of all contenders.
On a road trip through Canada, last year, I noticed that many fast food restaurants no longer have disposable plastic forks, spoons, drinking straws and cups. Disposable/reusable forks, spoons, knives are made of wood. Cups and straws are paper— like the ones in the USA, 60 years ago.
I understand that Parks Canada will be banning all plastic bags, cups, tableware, bottles, etc., from their national parks. That could work in the USA but is opposed by the fossil fuels industry that produces plastics.
Also note that “compostable” plastics from corn do not decompose in compost piles. They can be recycled in special industrial “composting” chambers (ovens) that aren’t ubiquitous. Ironically, the corn is typically grown with artificial fertilizers, herbicides and insecticides derived from government subsidized fossil fuels.
The U.S. is extremely short-sighted where the environment is concerned. Environmental disasters will increase to catastrophic levels. Climate refugees will be on the move in an attempt to find a safe haven. Fema being refunded wil result in continued trama for the American people.
Do you mean FEMA being defunded? NOAA and the EPA are also being defunded.
Ironically, the Pentagon planners have been aware of the possible consequences of climate change and environmental destruction since at least the 1960s. The planners strive to ensure that the armed forces personnel and equipment can function effectively in any anticipated environments. They understand the need for transitioning to clean energy. They know that plastics pollution in the oceans interferes with naval navigation systems.
Wait a minute……. You say “A former President of the United States—currently the Republican front-runner” as a preface to your supposedly brand spanking new revelation of a Trump threat to Elon Musk?
You better clarify this pronto or lose all credibility.
Where are the Republicans ? The party of Lincoln, Eisenhower, Reagan and John McCain ? Are they are so afraid of their DEAR LEADER they cannot show courage to take him down ?
“A former President of the United States—currently the Republican front-runner—is threatening a private citizen for exercising a constitutional right: donating to the political party of his choice.”
Um, the last time I checked, he unfortunately is still the president.
Trump knows DOGE stole gigabytes of classified data, and sent a chunk to Russia.
Only Trump can pardon Musk and the 90 or so young DOGE data miners for their espionage crimes against the US.
Then there are those many billions in federal contracts for Musk’s companies, including tossing out the Verizon Communications contract with the FAA and replacing it with Starlink.
TDUMP Threatens the man who BOUGHT him the Presidency ???
There is no bar too low that President Worm will not wriggle under
Exactly
Congratulations, Republicans….look what you’ve wrought on our country!!!

We don’t want them to become lobbyists or executives in the military-industrial complex. We don’t want them to become lobbyists’
executive consultants”.
They can retire in luxury or seek entry level retail jobs or work in “hospitality” services.
They brag about how many new jobs they have created. Surely they can each get one of those.

Organize. Unionize. Strike.

Impeachment only works if the impeachers are not loyal to the “impeachee”.
Impeachment is only the first step toward “removal”. Removal only works if the removers are not loyal to the “removee”.

Don't be afraid continue to oppose however you can. Never obey in advance.
Why do you refer to Trump as the former President and Republican front runner? Did I just fall through a time warp or did you?
Did AI write this? Former President?
Ummm… Who actually wrote this?
“A former President of the United States—currently the Republican front-runner—is threatening a private citizen for exercising a constitutional right: donating to the political party of his choice.”
I've launched a Neremberg Style Global Petition.

The Orange One is not the real problem. His sponsors are the problem.
Chicken in Chief admitted in his NBC Interview, that there are twenty or so in the WH, who will carry out the agenda. General Michael Flynn appears to be in command of various Malitas. Remember Flynn from the first administration?
That should be interesting. The disgraced Flynn was retired from the Army, years ago. Has he been vetted for a new job in government?
I believe Trump has added him to his staff again, because what's more Trumpian than to pack the house with his thug mafia?
As I mentioned not sure it's him but their seems to be ties to T - L - S
G - A - B
No idea, but General Flynn is mentioned many, many times in postings on the Far Side.
I'm assuming it's Michael Flynn. He was an advisor at one point, for I believe Erdogan
Ummm yeah. I just went to your thing here to sign all that and it says no donation but then you got your hand out saying chip in three bucks which one is it?
It's standard on all the change.org petitions.
But as I mentioned there is a " I can't chip in clause"
Thank you for taking the time to read the petition and thank you for your feed back.
You give the TACO way too much credit. He's all tough behind a keyboard at 3am. But he always chickens out. And there is only so much he can do
I refer to him as Chicken in Chief more appropriate for his position.
I launched a Neremberg Style Global Petition any one can sign. A - Z of crimes by this admin. Please share and sign. Thank you in advance.

“Starlink satellites(LEO), allows for faster data transfer.” Faster than what?
In my area, Starlink service is terrible — only a choice of last resort .
We’ll see how many of the depleted satellites “burn” vs. stay in orbit vs. crash into some random place on Earth.
I believe Starlink's objective was to cover vast areas, including rural areas, in order to have access to every cellular device.
Starlink is an expensive and perishable system with limited lifespan satellites that pollute the upper atmosphere. As far as I know, there are no federal regulations regarding the disposal of the spent satellites. Some may burn. Some may crash. Who will pay for any related damages?
This administration cares nothing about environmental damage of any kind. The people will be left dealing with Musk's space junk.

I’m waiting……..
Where are the Republicans ? The party of Lincoln, Eisenhower, Reagan and John McCain ? Are they are so afraid of their DEAR LEADER they cannot show courage to take him down ?
They don’t want to offend their sponsors who are also sponsors of the king.
“A former President of the United States—currently the Republican front-runner—is threatening a private citizen for exercising a constitutional right: donating to the political party of his choice.”
Um, the last time I checked, he unfortunately is still the president.
Trump has got to go. Our only hope is Congress and judiciary. Everything he does goes against the constitution and settled law.
Well, he’s just doing what all dictators do.
So if Musk gives to a Democrat, will Trump throw him in jail? What is the threat specifically?
Trump knows DOGE stole gigabytes of classified data, and sent a chunk to Russia.
Only Trump can pardon Musk and the 90 or so young DOGE data miners for their espionage crimes against the US.
