    Somebody needs to do something. It hasn't even been a month and this has gotten really really bad (understatement)

    And remember, if you voted for Trump, this is all your fault. No one will feel bad for you when you have nothing left.

    Here’s something you can do to fight back: Write reasonable, professional comments as a cis person on these, discussing the points made in the top comments.

    I tried but after putting in 5 different possible user names (crandc, my emails, my last 3 cats) I kept getting already in use. What are the odds, since I never did Reddit?

    Click on forgot my password, enter your email address and see what gets sent to you. Either you did sign up with reddit and just forgot about it or someone signed up to Reddit using your email address and you can take over their account. Either way, it's a win.

    Josh Shapiro gets his 2 billion gov funding because of law suit!

    He could been President now imo, if the whole Joe deal was handled differently. He would have beaten Trump easily.

    We can debate the hypothetical of whether Americans would vote for a Jewish president.

    Any other East Bay folks, rally Saturday in Dublin. Plan to reopen former women's prison, shut down due to rampant sexual abuse of inmates (guards called it rape factory) to hold immigrants. Say no.

    It's funny, because you can't really set up a better message for finally getting big money out of politics than the world's richest man buying the president of the united states because he's bored and mad at his trans daughter. If Democrats can organize around some very basic examples, they can win so much more than Republicans counted on. Because Elon rigged the presidential election, suddenly Democrats have a lot more state and local representation than we usually do, and now you have this ground game where maybe we can un-gerrymand some districts, and unfuck some things.

    Big protest today in Dublin over plans to reopen closed women's prison and use it to lock up immigrants. We started on one corner, then two, then all four. We had no permit for street protest so rally security volunteers, including yours truly, had to keep it on sidewalks. Four Trump supporters showed up. Outnumbered about 100 to one. They stood on island with flags. A woman started screaming at them, we persuaded her to concentrate on our message.

    Security volunteers stay on until crowd disperses because problems are actually more likely to happen when rally breaks up and someone wants to scrape with counter protesters. Glad crowd was enthused enough to stick around singing and chanting but oi feet hurt and needed to pee.

    Always a bit of family reunion atmosphere. Hey, didn't I see you at [insert name of protest]. Singing songs I heard in my cradle.
