yesterday felt like a pretty dark day. T is emboldened by Israel & Iran’s ceasefire compliance…for now (BUT we can’t get one for the Palestinians who continue to be killed & starved??). T is also emboldened by NATO countries’ increase in spending. but mostly, i think he is emboldened by SCOTUS’ decision, which seen in the light of their previous presidential immunity ruling, gives T almost king like power & even though it doesn’t quite go so far, he believes it does & will act as if so.

ugh.

BUT we still have the rights of speech & assembly even though they are being attacked. we still have a free press for now, & political opposition power – though it too is under attack with DHS already taking a swing at detaining & arresting Democratic Reps, Senators, Mayors, etc. & more than this, the vast majority of Americans, even some who voted for T, are deeply unhappy, concerned, & fearful of what is happening.

this is the time to speak out, to pressure lawmakers, to stand up, & participate in whatever activism we are able to participate in.
