Hopefully the tide is turning. I am sensing major outrage in this Repuglican stronghold in Florida, and it is bringing people closer together, with a common enemy. Hope it lasts. The harm that has been done was done quickly and senselessly. It may take years for us to return to "normal," if ever. And we know who to blame.

Those of us with sense to see beyond our pulpits and security gates and conscientious enough to care were definitely NOT pro-Tramp.

Me, too! Thanks for letting me (us?) know. Seldom hear about that--or at least--not enough of it.

People need to speak out & admit they were lied to by the Republican party, right wing radio like Limbaugh & FAUX "news" for years. Regan got rid of the Fairness Doctrine that led directly to Limbaugh & FAUX. His tax code changes led directly to billionaires controlling 80+% of the wealth in the USA & now serious power in the government. The consolidation of most of the wealth by the few has led to the Authoritarian Oligarchy & corruption that is happening now.

JD Vance once believed & publicly called Trump a fascist. Now he's his VP in lock step after working for & being turned by billionaire Thiel.

We're not going back to "normal" anytime soon. We have a big problem in this country and it's NOT the economy nor immigration. It's that we've allowed a President to ascend to the White House with the help of our enemy, who now has control of our country. I can't say it strongly enough, Trump is compromised by Putin and is attacking this country from within! Why do you think we have a drunk at DOD, a spy in Intelligence, a QANON quack with Russian ties over the FBI, while PURGING the patriots who served this country for decades? These are PUTIN'S choices. These are Putin's tactics. If we don't stop it soon, before Putin gets the rest of the patriots out, and our national secrets and data in his hands, (whatever is left from the last data dump Trump gave him from Mar-a-lago), Putin will have the entire world over a barrel..

Get MAD America, we are under ATTACK!

Well they're doing something with all that data.. Personally I think they're going to hand it off to Putin for use in the new world order they envision. But who really knows with these evil thinkers..

The answer to this rogue fascist regime is not legislative, that's lost It's up to us WE THE PEOPLE!!! If Kings Trump and Musk want to take down the people's republic then come at us

I say that WE THE PEOPLE take his government down by a DEBT STRIKE On the street protests are fine but an ECONOMIC PROTEST would collapse King Trump We need to organize like we did in 1776

The People's Union could be the coordination force needed for a DEBT STRIKE.....economic power lies in the hands of THE PEOPLE Worthwhile for everyone to join and link arms together!! https://jointhepeoplesunion.com/

My kids still use my Amazon account because they are professionals who have hectic lives. I, on the other hand, have not bought anything since December and will continue to boycott.

Screw weeklong boycott of Amazon. Just delete your account altogether and learn to shop local. It’s not that difficult. Underconsume and stop buying crap. Get rid of Meta and gmail if you have it. Just learn to live more simply and stop supporting oligarchs through their companies. Not just a week but forever.

This is easier said than done. The way I've handled this is that i shop local wherever I can. Then i shop online in ANY store other than Amazon. I only shop Amazon when I can't get it anywhere else. This has allowed me to significantly curtail my Amazon shopping.

I already canceled my Amazon membership FJB. I canceled my Twitter account when Musk said he was going to buy it. FEM.

Our Prime Minister Trudeau has mentioned Red states will be targeted with boycotts. One has to punch back immediatly when dealing with a narcissitic,rapist,felon,dictator,bully,child molester and a leader that hates the very people who voted for him.

We welcome the Blue states....who must be tired of supporting Red states that hate them so totally.........it is mindboggeling.........

Everyone needs to call their congress rep & senator & remind them they are there to represent their constituents & if they refuse to do their job, standing by & allow/ condone Trump & Musk tearing the government apart without one word or action to stop it they will very likely be primaried & voted out of office by the voters.

That would not be the redneck northwest of the state, who will fight to the death to defend their MAGA messiah, but from all the transplanted retirees in their manufactured home communities and elite "villages" who see their Social Security incomes in jeopardy.
