That’s why they’re using Signal. If this while thing collapses on them, they don’t want written records of their criminal conspiracies.

I think the important thing here is to not get distracted and focus on what’s really important:

Hillary’s emails.

Never do a sinple short. The maximum possible gain is whatever the current price is at, but there is no cap on the potential loss.

Especially don’t do this when Trump may order the federal government to buy a bunch of Teslas and make the stock surge again.

You expect unions to remain “legal” if that happens?

Trump’s team very carefully which Court orders to initially openly defy. Lots of people don’t see the urgency in defending the rights of “gang members.” But what he’s doing is setting the precedent that people can be sent to overseas labor camps without ANY due process.

Lots of American citizens may soon find themselves being accused of being Venezuelan gang members or agents of foreign “terrorist” groups.

No, this one is pretty clear. The FTC chairs very specifically cannot be made up of members of a single party, with a maximum ratio of 3 members of one party to 2 of others.

If he really wanted to skirt the law without ipenly defying it, he could invent a new, fake, political party for replacement commissioners. But Trump has zero interest in obeying the law now that he’s been specifically granted immunity from prosecution for violation of the law.

He shouldn’t be letting those attorneys leave the courtroom free men. Hold them in contempt and issue bench warrants for administration officials and anyone carrying out these illegal orders.

It’s not Trump you’re negotiating with with that kind of strategy. It’s the GOP.

If Trump backs down on the tariffs, Canada should only back down halfway. Make it clear there are permanent consequences every time he fucks with the world economy on a whim.

People don’t have to be part of an organized, traceable resistance when everyone has guns and the targets aren’t military in nature.

United Healthcare lost its CEO to a random dude lone gunman while he was walking down the street.

The idea is to make everybody a potential threat to those who abuse power. But one side of the political spectrum decided that guns are bad and disarmed themselves, so 90% of the guns are owned by fascists.

They probably have truly damning evidence of something. Like video of him with a child prostitute, or evidence of him being involved in a murder.

Refusing to pay people and honor contracts has been Trump’s MO for decades.

Tanks, jets, and rocket launchers are good against other armies. They’re pretty shitty against anonymous civilians. It’s why the US lost in Iraq and Afghanistan.

And in the US, the civilians would have 2 other advantages:

1. A military that would be more reluctant to kill other Americans on American soil
2. The enemy wouldn’t be the military, but poloticians.

They had word of mouth AND the difficulty of getting a film made and distributed. That meant very few movies existed. It’s easier to stand out in a small crowd.

Now anybody with a phone can film and distribute. Marketing is more important for getting your idea in front of people than anything else these days.

The better solution is targeted rolling medium-ter. boycots of specific companies/products that we won’t realistically drop entirely.

Roll between boycots of Amazon, Walmart, etc for month each to impact their quarterly reports and fuck up their stocks.

There’s lots of “I bought this before I knew he was crazy” variants out there.

But if you’re really committed and want to design something unique, I’ll laser engrave it on something for you for free. I can do plastics, wood, and metal that can be attached with glue or magnets. Or I can laze a template for you if you’d like to paint it on.

May I suggest a bumper sticker indicating you don’t support him or the company any longer?

Trump is still important. He’s the person at the center of the cult they’ve built their power on.

That’s literally a threat to their sovereignty.

They should say “fuck that”, block Meta, and seize all his European assets until he falls in line.

Lots of things like grey hair, moving more slowly, injuries that I would have bounced away from before instead hurting for weeks or months.

But the one that hit hardest was a breakup I had a little while back. She was the love of my life and I fully intended to marry her, and when she ended it out of nowhere I was sad, but fine. She dumped me, and it sucked, but I also needed to finish a staff report for a Planning and Zoning Commission meeting that night. So I moved on.

The thing that upset me most was that I wasn’t that upset. There was a time in my life when I would have been a mess. But as I’ve aged, my emotions have become more regulated.

I miss being capable of that level of joy and pain.
