As a non-lawyer or politician, I don't understand why we don't hold Trump's minions responsible for following Trump's illegal actions? You do notice that he has time only for posting lies on social media and someone else is carrying out his latest whim, don't you?

This may be an oldish message but it's important to see and remember how conservatives act, their belief systems, and how they want our society to look like. No thanks, Republicans. You don't have to force it on the rest of us.

We can all agree on this: Trump is a consummate liar and a con artist. He wants to retain power in order to continue dismantling our infrastructures and enriching his family and, of course, himself. Make no mistake — he cares nothing about the common man.

So infuriating to live in such a racist and unjust country. Absolutely abhor the conservatives on the Supreme Court. Our democracy will not survive this evil.

Aren’t people completely fed up with Trump’s lies and his petulance for greed and destruction? This is your country he is destroying. If you think anyone will be spared the consequences, you are not facing reality.

Resistance works. Maybe not instantly but persistent, courageous resistance is absolutely necessary. Do what you can, but do something.

Snopes verifying Hegseth's outrageous spending. Are Republicans still thinking that Trump is even remotely interested in them? Republicans are a complete disgrace and should be run out of public office.

What’s interesting is that the Christian values that they would espouse are very “unchristian” in their actual practice. The “family values” that MAGA/Republicans/Evangelicals actually embrace are hate, discrimination, inequity, lawlessness, greed and complete lack of compassion. Uberhypocrites.

Instead of being consumed by hate, revenge — or apathy — we must fight for what we want, what we value, what is good for us but also good for others. We live in families, groups, communities — not just ourselves 100% of the time.

As the Administration continues its war on American citizens, military personnel needs to think carefully what their values and responsibilities are.

If the GOP Congress abdicates their responsibilities, why should they receive salaries and benefits while the rest of us are suffering from Trump/GOP budget cuts?

It would be great if our own government officials were law abiding if they expect citizens to act accordingly.

If you are hiding out hoping someone will fix things, you are part of the problem. Not because you’re a terrible person but because dictators count on your indifference to gain their power. A warning from NYT:

Don’t be waiting on the ONE solution to do the work that needs to be done. Do everything you can to resist. But whatever you do, don’t give up! That’s the one thing that will ensure Trump’s success.

The Trump Administration is consistent about their ambitions: reach as many people as possible who are willing to believe their lies. Because the fact of the matter is that most of the time they are lying to the public. Sadly, look how many people are gullible….

The Trump Nightmare will not go away without our involvement and resistance. We have a choice to act or to ignore our reality. Just remember, to ignore reality usually doesn't work too well in the long run.

The oath taken by the military means that they take an oath to NOT support a would-be dictator who has been trampling our rule of law since he took office.
010
Edie @edeebee.bsky.social · 28/09/2025
In these turbulent times, military personnel have a lot of soul searching to do about their responsibilities. Do they support a would-be dictator or do they follow their oath of office to defend the Constitution. I know it’s not as easy as that but in some ways, isn’t that the most important thing?

Edie @edeebee.bsky.social · 28/09/2025
Trump is completely out of control, thanks to his Supreme Court wins and a Republican Congress who have abdicated all their power to this want-to-be-dictator. Just as we should be contacting public officials, we should also be letting SCOTUS know our concerns. (from AI - sorry)
010
Edie @edeebee.bsky.social · 28/09/2025
We are in this dire situation of an empowered Trump primarily because of the Supreme Court. Sure there are other factors, but if SCOTUS had not given Trump so many victories, he would not be flagrantly violating laws. We need to think about replacing current SCOTUS structure to prevent tyranny.
