This political cartoon from 200 years ago is an poignant echo of what's happening today with Trump. King George III leaving the British treasury, his pockets overflowing with taxpayers' money which he helped himself to and getting praised for it while the amputated common man watches on helplessly

I'm probably on the spectrum, I've long suspected I'm high functioning #autistic But for my own safety, I will not bother testing, not with the current situation the USA is in. Not with RFK running that literal copycat Nazi eugenics program, which also is likely a cover for euthanasia.

Congrats Canada. Getting a sane leader in and getting the mini-Trump out of his seat, hope in humanity has been slightly restored. But alas, we still have our Trump and prospects of getting him out is fading as he consolidates ever more power.

THIS! I'm so sick of hearing "Trump doesn't care." You know who does care? The people who have never protested before but now see how many of us are out there. Those people get PUMPED and start doing work they didn't have the courage to do before. PROTESTS MATTER. #50501movement

MAGA is claiming Trump rallies make the #Handsoff #protests look like tiny BBQ cookouts. Sure, buddy. You'll probably try to have a Trump rally and only a few dozen people will show up. Then you'll pass around doctored pictures of the Hands Off protests and claim they're Trump rallies.

Now, as our country spirals into totalitarian authoritarianism, I believe it's high time to reignite the calls for the states that still support democracy and rule of law to secede. Otherwise they face a relentless pressure to be subjugated and converted to Trumpism. Looking at you, New York.

We’re not living through a “wow this is a bad administration” moment. It’s a “there may not be another administration” moment. It’s not just politics.

Well now MAGA is aware of the planned April 19 #HandsOff protest and you can bet your ass they'll try to disrupt them. Including bringing megaphones to scream out their MAGA nonsense to try to drown you out. So as an reminder, bring your megaphones if you're able to, to counter them.

The Hands Off Movement brought 5.2 million Americans into the streets on Saturday. But NYT and WaPo didn't want anyone to know about it. Local papers, however, demonstrated what a reporter is supposed to do, namely report the news.

Local news outlets show the New York Times how to cover the growing pro-democracy movement.
The NYTimes leadership is still indifferent to democracy. Just look at its front page.

We often look back on the seminal moments in our history and wonder "What would I have done?" This is our moment. This is our time. We must stand up. We must speak out. We must do everything we can to stop a President who has every intention of destroying our democracy.

Not my picture, but I saw this at my local #Handsoff protest, didn't have my phone with me as precaution, so couldn't snap. Very poignant. We've pretty much shamed and disappointed our ancestors who died fighting against fascism and authoritarianism. We all ought do our part #Resist #Tariffs

Well, here's what's likely to happen in Trump's checklist as he seizes total power and ensures authoritarian rule. Read this and recognize the steps. medium.com/@aletheisthe... #Resist #Resistance #Handsoff

On April 20th, 2025, the United States will Cross the Point of No Return.
That’s the day Donald Trump’s advisory committee is expected to release its findings on whether he should invoke the Insurrection Act — a move that would allow him to deploy the military domestically…

This could be any of us. This week, the House votes on the “No Rogue Rulings Act” (NORRA), H.R. 1526. If it passes, courts won't be able to block Trump’s illegal actions. Unchecked power. — Our new dictator. They must be stopped! @georgetakei.bsky.social please share with your network.

I'm seeing a massive echo from the past here. Trump stole from the people to fund his golf and etc. Nero stole from the people to build fancy theaters. Nero playing fiddle as Rome burns. Trump playing golf as America collapses. 🤔 #FuckTrump #Protest #Handsoff

Tom Homan, Trump's psychotic boss of Homeland Security on today's Hands Off protests. "Protests and rallies, they don't mean anything, so go ahead and exercise your first amendment rights. It's not going to change anything." Ooh such manly man bravado. Scared much? #HandsOff #Protest

Rep Pramila Jayapal today at #HandsOff Seattle “I want to be clear, trans kids didn’t hike your rent, billionaires did,” Jayapal said. “Immigrants did not make your groceries more expensive, billionaires did. Federal workers did not take away your health care, billionaires did.”

Well attended my local protest. Saw all kinds of interesting signs. And yet despite all the anger and indignation, Trump is telling us to 'Hang Tough' as he golfs and slaps even more damaging tariffs. Maybe we should start destroying golf supplies to deny Trump his pleasures?

Well, I took a gander at the Grassley-Cantwell bill... Gives me some hope since it's bipartisan but I'm not holding my breath given the current makeup of Congress. Also the number of GOPers telling us to suck up the economical pain. Kudos to Maria Cantwell though, she's my senator!

Oh for gods sake. News media treating Trump's handling of the economy as 'clumsy' but completely not saying what it is. Trump's crashing of the economy is *intentional* not clumsy, or idiotic. Purely malicious intent. He and his billionaire friends stand to gain from this. #tariffs #tariff
