"Saying no" is the 1st step in bringing change as it unleashes your personal power and contributes to the collective power of all people. History has shown that collective power has the ability to bring down governments! VOTE!

Maybe the administration can find a national security justification for putting Trump’s name on the Kennedy Center. But until then, they’re just intent on violating the law and dishonoring a slain president.

Superpower suicide - The country is rapidly deflating its own power, both immediately, by torching alliances and losing wars, and over the long term, by hollowing out the economy, social mobility, and the research and educational base that power actually rests on.

"Trump’s lies have been legitimised in the public sphere for over a decade by mainstream journalists too weak, too scared, too cowed to call them out. Those helping him to lie, like Fox News, are likewise never held responsible for their deceit."
