yeah!

Stop surrendering

Oh, fuck off with this

Pointing out that rights have to be fought for isn't giving up. It's demanding people take their heads out of their asses and stop saying "he can't do that" while he does it.

Who is supposed to stop him?, and why aren't they?

You John.

You are supposed to stop him! Are you donating to groups like ACLU, Common Cause, First Amendment Foundation, or Free Speech for People? Lawsuits can be very expensive.

Due to the ever increasing cost of living l have nothing left to give.

Well, the way our founding father put it Congress would impeach his ass and remove him, short of that, they hoped that the courts would stop him, but as Thomas Jefferson stated, "The tree of liberty must be refreshed from time to time by the blood of tyrants and patriots."

Well said

Shit like this is actually being stopped right now routinely by our courts. It just happens a month later and the media never covers it. Its why they keep ranting about the "woke liberal judges" ruining their plans.

We will be hearing all about the "judicial coup" soon enough

Yup. Inevitable

And it’s exactly why he keeps pushing this shit with EOs instead of actual bills. It’s why the only bill he has tried it with was crammed with bs. He’s a narcissist and they only know how to win by overwhelming and skirting boundaries because they know the real system stops them

Democratic Party leadership is doing that not regular Bluesky posters

No. That's just a story you've told yourself and is not true. Surrendering is assuming Trump will get away with everything, for whatever reason. Don't fall for it. It drives people away from opposition to Trump, which is the last thing we should be doing.

“surrendering is pointing out that the Democratic Party Leadership has been surrendering and continues to do so” um ok

Who slash where do you think you are bud

Let me personally go up to the machine with blood on the gears and tell them they can't. It's not surrendering to point out that the systems with power to stop this are actively choosing not to. Pointing that out is just as important. There's a full chain of power that bears responsibility.

No. You are surrendering by shrugging your oh-so-cynical-and-hip shoulders and assuming they can't be stopped. That just greases the skids. Allow yourself to be wrong and to be shocked. THAT'S how you draw more people in who don't already agree.
