We want to apologize if it feels like we’ve been venting a lot lately. It’s just hard to ignore that nearly every move from this administration seems to be illegal, unlawful, or outright unconstitutional and yet nothing happens.

Everyday Americans are held to a higher standard, facing serious consequences for even small mistakes, while those in power from the so-called “party of law and order” keep breaking the rules without accountability.
Most of us share your outrage and frustration.
Thank you. It helps me know I’m not the only one screaming into the wind.
Not only breaking law, rules, constitution – but their actual ability to perform is akin to a carpenter who uses rotten boards to build a floor. Abs incompetent, as is so clear to all of us. So nauseating.
😡😡😡
They aren't just breaking rules. They are breaking laws.
They aren’t just breaking rules and laws. They ripped up the entire system of checks and balances and constitutional order and replaced it with a corrupt historical Gilded Age or old NYC style system of corruption, graft, patronage, spoils to the winner, cheating, attacking political opponents, etc.
Careful to not listen to their cheerleaders in the news. It adds insult (salt) to injury
218 as of Today. The fascists are raging forward. Fascists at all gov't levels. I am being ASKED why I am protesting by TEACHERS!!! They had the summer off, why have they missed what is happening? Please do SOMETHING to save Democracy! youtu.be/O6EzqLPbMt8?...
you noticed the same thing I was noticing. these power hungry asshats are not redeemable anymore.
Feeling's mutual. I get so angry reading/watching news. I just want someone to say, "ok, here goes, we're gonna tear this mother down!" I don't mean that literally but you get it. I don't know what we can do. One thing we need is content that covers just protests. If people see they can engage.
MeidasTouch covers the protests. Major media downplays them if they mention them at all and conservative media calls them fake and says they are hired by George Soros.
Yeah I know they cover some of them. I watch Meidas Touch. They're one of the few reliable sources for news. I have yet to receive a single check from any of the protests I've been to. Lol! I guess I just feel hopeful when I see so many people out there.
They want to start nosing through medical records to punish the doctors and presumably parents of minors who have received gender affirming care, as if HIPPA or the 4th Amendment don't exist. Yet we can't see his fucking tax returns or the Epstein list.
🤬💩☠️
Them! Not you.
👿
We the people will take control of the government and make them pay for ALL of their crimes!
So exactly how the GOP have acted for the last...50 years? The hypocrisy and double standards are party platform positions, right under "domestic terrorist" Reagan prosecuted Crack unfairly harshly based on misinformation while his own CIA protected cocaine dealers and smuggled drugs into the USA
I looked up some of yhe things Reagan did bc I didn't know. In case anyone else is curious. Source: Wikipedia
Here's a source: CIA-Contra-Crack Cocaine Controversy share.google/my72BhNNXGno...
Who is this written by? There's no author listed.
Does this make it easier? en.wikipedia.org/wiki/CIA_inv...
This is a page directly from a government agency website (Office of the Inspector General) and it's a summary of his criminality There's references at the bottom and the body text is full of links to sources with authors listed Did you read it? This doesn't seem harder to read than Wikipedia
With the assent of Reagan's sympathetic National Labor Relations Board appointees, many companies won wage and benefit cutbacks from unions, especially in the manufacturing sector.
During Reagan's presidency, the share of employees who were part of a labor union dropped from approximately one-fourth of the total workforce to approximately one-sixth of the total workforce.[
Reagan signed the Anti-Drug Abuse Act of 1986 and 1988 to specify penalties for drug offenses.[266] Both bills have been criticized in the years since for promoting racial disparities.
Reagan opposed the Voting Rights Act of 1965,[32] which he long-deemed "humiliating to the South". He initially opposed the establishment of Martin Luther King Jr. Day.
He vetoed the Civil Rights Restoration Act of 1987, tlarguing that the bill unreasonably increased the federal government's power and undermined the rights of churches and business owners.
In doing so, Reagan was the first U.S. president to veto civil rights legislation since Andrew Johnson vetoed the Civil Rights Act of 1866, which was also overridden by Congress.
He appointed Clarence M. Pendleton Jr., known for his opposition to affirmative action and equal pay for men and women, as chair of the United States Commission on Civil Rights. Pendleton and Reagan's subsequent appointees greatly eroded the enforcement of civil rights law.
Reagan unsuccessfully nominated Robert Bork to the Supreme Court as a way to achieve his civil rights policy that could not be fulfilled during his presidency; Bork was a judge on the United States Court of Appeals for the District of Columbia Circuit, appointed by President Reagan in 1982...
FYI Opposition to his nomination centered on his perceived willingness to roll back the civil rights rulings of the Warren and Burger courts, and his role in the Saturday Night Massacre during the Watergate scandal.
It is emotionally exhausting. I have to have faith in karma to get through the days and sleepless nights.
Feeling the same way!!I don’t think I’ve slept properly since 2016 myself.It’s doing a number on my aFib and just had to have surgery for it last week.The stress can be overwhelming!! I’m not super religious or anything but I find myself mentally reciting childhood prayers in the wee hours. 🙏
We love you. Please keep yo head up.
No apologies necessary…we all feel the same way.
It can be really discouraging. I appreciate you.
You have every right to feel frustrated and overwhelmed. All of us also feel these emotions as well. We have to learn to take breaks and lett others share in carrying the burden of resisting.
What resistance?
The people saying "what resistance" are clearly sitting it out. If you were engaged, you'd know.
Or they are watching from afar in increasing horror and fear. Like me. I know what IS happening is underreported but maybe that's because as big as they may seem marches just aren't newsworthy anymore. Takes lessons from the French. They know how to protest.
Fill the streets sit down and stay for as long as it takes. India might have some ideas that will help.
The important thing for people to know is that our media is corrupt, and *will not* report on what the Dems or ordinary people are doing in a favorable light. If you're not hearing about it, it doesn't mean it's not happening, it just means your sources of news are failing you. Look closer.
I know marches are happening but what else? I mean you must all know at this point that very extreme actions are required, not violent (although they may lead to violence) but very inconvenient.
So many people are asleep at the wheel. People living their lives blissfully unaware of what a shit show Trump and his administration are conducting. There’s more than enough blame to go around, media included, but I put much of this at the feet of ordinary people including the 90M who didn’t vote.
I’m becoming increasingly convinced that all the protests, court battles, political punditry, and so ‘resistance’ in the end will simply not be enough. It pains me to say it but we need a purging. Violence will be needed to galvanize and awake so many people from their slumber and ignorance.
There are about a 1000 lawsuits unfolding right now, and the lower courts are providing significant relief. Dem Governors are pushing back where they can - but for example, Newsom can't simply expel ICE from California, he doesn't have that power. What he can do, is make Trump look like a fool.
But that's cold comfort for those who are being persecuted by this regime.
Part of the problem is that the Dems simply don't have the power to do what people want. Republicans control the House, the Senate, the Presidency, and the Supreme Court. That's *our* fault, not the pols. WE failed to show up, and it's put them in a terrible situation. What they can do, they are.
It isn't our fault that idiots voted for the maniac despite all we know about him. We aren't responsible for the idiots amongst us.
and they control a lot of states/state govt - also our fault. Americans are not taking their share of the accountability for this mess. Natural at first when something goes this wrong but everyone needs to grow up and get to work
Nothing like Musk paying people to vote his way, neither..but hey, go ahead and blame the invalid etc
Sorry, but I'm still not convinced that Trump won legitimately. All the gerrymandering, voter disenfranchisement, statistical anomalies in voting data, even bomb threats at the polls. We didn't want him in, he forced his way in. We're gonna have to fight like hell to keep the 2026 elections valid
The Dems are losers, who are complicit in this Fascist overhauling of our country.
Court cases are happening nation-wide. Whistleblowers are taking a stand. State and local govt can have an impact, esp if we push them now. Discouragement is what the regime _wants_ you to feel; do you really want to spread what they want?
Yes, there’s still hope. Resistance from Newsom and Pritzker, and a lot of other people speaking out are all encouraging. However, I feel like we need to have a back up plan if they decide to ignore the courts, but I don’t know what that plan is or how we bring it all together.
WE NEED TO STRIKE
abso-fucking-lutely
I don’t think we have enough people yet that care. That really truly get it. I’ve heard the number we need to get to, to make a serious difference, is 3% of the population. I don’t think we’re there. Not enough people are hurt yet. They’re going to have to feel real fucking pain before they’re mad.
Yes we do!

When MSNBC switches to MSNOW, a talking head said that would give the network more Independence. 🤷♀️
It only takes guillotines one time in history for those in power not to soon forget the power of the people. The protests are generally similar but the US is also much bigger and the populace more easily divided over stupid things. It’s unfortunate that many Americans cannot resist the culture war.
Thinking more of the gilet jaune than the guillotine tbh. I've heard the size of the US put forward as problematic. True, but I would have thought strategic targets. Washington being the most strategic hence the fucking Gestapo.
Well thank god that we have you here to tell us what to do. Your tremendous advice of “act like the French” is super helpful. You go first and we’ll all follow since the hundreds of rallies that go on across the country every week don’t meet your high standards.
Rude. They are right. Protests/marches r not stopping the regime, they only show that there r others that think the same way. No one is coming 2save us & courts can’t hold the line for much longer. The only way 2peacefully end this is with a general strike. The other options r revolution or submit.
Rude. You are wrong. I answered the person who admitted that she was watching from afar, had no idea that we are having protests frequently across the country which the media don’t show, and she decided to give instructions from her safe couch. I don’t agree with her. Or you.
No. Calling BS. debnicktom stated that protests/marches were being under reported & that they are ineffective. They are completely correct. The courts can’t hold the line much longer. We’re down to 3 options: revolution, acquiesce & live like North Koreans, or general strike like the French do.
This is how hippie communes started in the 70s
Is it? Not sure I understand your point.
1.in my opinion after the nixon re election the hippies felt like society wasnt theirs and there was this zeitgeist to head out into their own version of a remade frontier americana. Whole earth catalogues. Sunshine family toys. The invention of album rock in america that traded country where glam..
2. ...Took over the world post acid rock. Here we had the birth of AOR with albums from nitty gritty dirt band and brewer n shipley. Eventually as the economy collapsed the hemlines got longer and granny dresses. Shawls. Earth shoes. 1800s glasses became the norm. And as that happened the hippies...
The protests in individual states mean nothing. We ALL need to march on Washington or whatever golf club he's at at the moment. We don't have billionaires footing the bill for US to get to DC like they had to get them there on J6.
I suppose it has little to do w/ what the media reports vs. what "is really happening" because our systems and services are being obliterated. I have eyes, I manage millions in assets, and I'm a ELA/SS educator, and I see what we're losing. The damage is far outrunning the resistance & its impact.
The "Resistance" appears to be people filming ICE Gestapo kidnappings and shouting "Shame" and "Get out of here". THAT is NOT resistance, that is bystanding. Come back when the "Resistance" start throwing rocks and rescuing the oppressed. Impeach Trump.
How about actually doing something about it? This regime is not going to go away with strongly worded letters, protests that they really believe the people are being paid. So they ignore them!! I have been resisting..I have also been arrested for the time honored tradition of a sit in protest.
You need to get arrested for unaliving fascists. Get off your ass
You're doing fuck all. Stop patting yourself on the back for doing fuck all. Lazy cunts
I'm not sitting out; I protest, boycott, limit consumption, contact electeds, tell my local town officials how I feel, & have cut ties with MAGA friends + family. I don't know what more I can do to walk my talk that I've been doing since I was in CORE. This old activist agrees w/ "what resistance?"
Good news FiftyFifty.One is now supporting the upcoming BlackoutTheSystem.com Mass Blackout! BLACKOUT THE SYSTEM is looking for speakers to speak on their behalf at FiftyFifty.Onet's “Workers Over Billionaires” Mass Protests this Monday, Labor Day, September 1, 2025.
Pfft, right?
Haven’t you heard? The super cute “No Kings” parade was REALLY BIG and don’t you dare ask for evidence it had any impact apart from emboldening the fascists who now know exactly how cowardly the opposition is.
We know. We hear about it every day. Do take care of yourselves. ❤️
REPUBLICANS!
Hadn't seen it from that angle.
That is the goal of totalitarians: the law is for others.
Civil war or insurrection?
Accurate
This is what has been pissing me off the most. I feel like I have to be a perfect good little boy while those in power ransack and destroy everything around them while being praised for it.
catch @velshi.com 's 1100am today editorial.. .powerful @altnps.bsky.social
Every day becomes a little bit harder to keep your heart open and your wrists closed
Things are probably much worse than we imagine.
we don't know how right you are... but we're going to find out whether we like it or not.
And the damn thing is, that what we’re imagining is pretty fucked up.
Excellent description of fascism. Americans need to rise up. The sooner you stop it, the easier.
'The party of law & order'? Don't make me laugh! The Republicans defunded the police in DC and Chicago.
youtu.be/cgHxfbrggx0
Winning at any cost with any method is their game. There is a new reality of corruption, patronage, cheating in US government. Their way or the highway. The good guys need to show up in a different way to counter it. Unfortunately, the old system and rules don’t work in the new reality they created.
We have tonl remember whonthe republicans work for and why do what rhey do. Keep us plebes from uniting and bringing down their establishment...
Ugh. It's early...
This recent tariff case gives the Supreme Court an opportunity to stand up to Trump and I hope it takes it!!!
They don’t WANT to stand up to him because they’re on board with #Project2025 which means ALLOWING him TOTAL and unfettered power. What their party doesn’t seem to get is, once he has all that power, WHY would he need them anymore? They NEVER think #ETTD will affect them.
It will be interesting to see what, if any, justification the court can give for Trump to violate the constitution. Appeals Court said the tariffs are illegal but can stay in place as the case proceeds. Weird huh??
They just keep saying POTUS has the power to do it. Not Biden of course when he was POTUS, which is EXACTLY WHY Joe should have tested them and gotten them on record with numerous issues!
Look you need to vent and feel you can in a safe space and feel supported. We have your back that way. We just cannot do much to put the fire out before they burn house down
It’s almost like you have an enormous platform and have spent 8 months absolutely wasting it telling Americans to peacefully take the high road (while getting defensive and bitchy at anyone who points out that you’re basically complicit)
What are you doing for Democracy?
Taking shit from overly defensive do-nothing white neolibs, apparently.
Opinions of others you disagree with are Shit? Freedom of speech is for all or Nobody
What’s your fucking problem? What are you doing, you sanctimonious prick?
Yeah, get defensive at me. That’s where your energy should go right now.
And learn what defensive means.
Listen, you snarky asshole. You don’t come in here with your negative shit, then tell ME what to do. You’re just a pathetic keyboard warrior, out here trolling. GTFOH
Cool. When they’re putting you in one of the unmarked vans you can comfort yourself with the memory of the time you totally told off that person on the internet who insinuated you weren’t doing enough.
it doesn't fix it, but it can be at least less confusing to know that this is authoritarianism. They see themselves as higher in the hierarchy and they can dictate the rules everyone else must adhere to, while they can do whatever they want. Hypocrisy and inequality are features, not bugs.
Completely agree with you. Many of us are frustrated, angry, worried. All the feels. We're with you.
We need to be organized and ready to reverse, protect, investigate, arrest, and improve this country when we get the power back.
He’s learned he can just ignore the courts, and Congress has abdicated.
Ditto
Calling the Trump Regime an "administration" lends it an air of legitimacy. Calling it "The Turd Reich" is much more accurate.
Don’t apologize. We should all be outraged and alarmed and finding ways to resist and not allow this to become normal. Thank you for speaking up and keeping the focus on who wrong these actions are.
If you didn't vent, people would forget. Same way we talk about the Epstein Files.
It helps resolve cognitive dissonance when you accept that the people have no government and that a ruling class partnered with crazies seeking to buy the USA as their "promised land" are in total control of two parties and what claims to be "government."
It's like watching a horror movie and there is nothing that can stop it. I can't even turn the movie off. All American ideals and institutions being destroyed in front of our eyes.
Here’s why www.facebook.com/share/p/1B5P...
So it the Labour Day Weekend , the end of summer . Also looks like the end of democracy in the USA . Trump is doing everything to stay in power . Stack the courts , put his lackeys in , troops on the streets , and trying to rigged the next vote. And Trump was president when Epstein died in jail.
No apologies necessary whatsoever! Your posts have been spot-on and on the right side of history. ✊🇺🇸💙 #KeepGoing
Our "brave" Democrat leaders. www.youtube.com/shorts/__ykr...
Everyone feels this way and does it here.
No apologies necessary. But a straitjacket for the cretin in the WH wouldn’t go smiss.
Where is Wal…..er Trump?
I’m right there with you. I’ve been hitting up the WTF Store every day to replenish my supply.
We are all venting….it’s ok
100% accurate. I truly do not understand why.
We feel ya! Its okay to vent we all have to do it to keep our sanity. Keep up the great work.
Same.
We get it. Kept a list of the court wins. Look at it when you need a lift. We the people are fighting back. See you Monday.
Keep*
No, you're feeling like the rest of us, and you have a platform large enough to get the word out. Good on you!
I agree, anyone who has large platforms should vent, wail, protest, shout out loud, share non stop. The louder, the better!!
We share your frustration
Or hazardous to human life. No apologies needed. You speak the truth and sometimes it's hard to hear.
Strange as it seems...we were here before, from 2017 to 2021. Remember covid? The upside down bible photo shoot? The Black Lives Matter protests? Day after day of violations and Constitutional pilaging? We did it for FOUR YEARS. I don't know HOW we made it, but we DID.
I know what you mean...🤮
NOT ONE f ing THING changes it's all TRUMP, TRUMP WINS, TRUMP HATES AND STILL WINS, AND SOON ENOUGH TRUMP KILLS AND CONTINUES TO WIN!
I stand with you! Keep the posts coming!
Thought January 6, 2021 would have been the end of trump.
It would have if Biden didn’t say at his inauguration,”we should not look back…” and his AG was all hears.
We all feel the same. Thanks for keeping up the good work! They need to be exposed!!
If we don't express our feelings, we're done for – in all ways. Friend just now: "Oh it’s hitting everybody with any sense. Just some of us are more vocal about it." I replied: "People that smile and say things are fine frankly freak me out." Immensely grateful to you, @altnps.bsky.social
I understand how you guys feel... This shit fucking sucks.
I've had to stop watching the evening CBS News because no "Journalist" interviewing these MAGAt LIARS yells in their face "THAT'S A FUCKING LIE!" And, my neighbors are getting tired of me yelling it at the screen.
no apologies necessary, you say what we are all thinking...
We are watching the destruction of our CONSTITUTIONAL rights as the MAGA GOP allows him free rein. Democrats just stand by and watch with few speaking out. It is time for a new center-left party.
Marc Elias and his team work tirelessly to hold them to account. I wish congress would do the same. I constantly have to remind myself of that .
We have ALL been feeling that way. Enough is enough. When will this end?
He can barely walk,severe shortness of breath,confusion, fatigue,sleepiness, lower leg edema likely pitting +4.if he’s worried about heaven-reverse Project 2025, restore legislation,stop tariffs, drop all law suits. build fast trains, libraries.Fund education,national healthcare! APOLOGIZE! BuryGOP
Nothing happens because Conservatives control all 3 branches of government. It's not what's best for the people but what's best for the Republican party and my wallet.
Thank you for all of the work! I appreciate that you’re willing to speak up and share your experiences! We face some fucking horrible news every waking moment and it can get overwhelming, it is frustrating. Keep taking it day by day and we will persist!
The US govt is not the best but it is inherently hard to knock it off stride...even when the damage is from the inside. The extremist rightwing think tanks have been planning this political coup for years.
Vent away! Get it out! We need this. We need to voice our concerns. This administration gives us a lot of content to discuss
Your problem comes down to an absolute failure of your Constitution, Institutions and your political and electoral systems. Many changes needed but first you have to survive this shitshow that GOP been working on through MAGA & Project 2025 for decades. If you can’t see how they have done it you
haven’t been paying attention.
And cruel. Because cruelty is a high point for them
Thank John Roberts
Thank Ronald Reagan and the John Birch Society, the Heritage Foundation, and RW media outlets.
Thank Mitch McConnell, that disgraceful ancient traitor who wouldn't let Obama nominate, who refused to let Republicans vote for convicting Trump in the Senate.
Yes. Current Supreme Court is McConnell’s fault.
They're consistently losing in court, at voting polls, and polling. Cheer up.
And why should the rest of us live lawfully?
...and those were the last words heard before the fall of civilization.
I say general strike, but stay home and off the streets to avoid martial law and the brand new ICE private army. Go out only when absolutely necessary. Stock up on goods and food if you can and shut this MFer down. Kept it shutdown. Guessing a month- 2 month will create the change we need.
Time for a general strike
Don't worry. Felon457 has legalized all of his EOs with the 1% of his mind that hasn't abandoned ship.
Vent away, isn’t that why we are here?
The word you're looking for is "overreaction".If you have Trump Derangement Syndrome everything he does and says will seem horrific and terrible.It's a mindset i suggest you try shaking.Root for your country to succeed no matter who's in charge and you won't have to apologize for your psychosis.
You’re good. You do not need to apologize for anything. Please continue doing what you do. Thank you. 💙
#ReleaseEpsteinTrumpFiles
Sadly, it takes a lot longer to get on a court docket than to sign an illegal executive order. I am encouraged that some of these are getting to court and ruling against Trump's tyranny.
Don’t apologize! You’re a voice of the resistance. It’s exhausting, but you’re saying everything the rest of us are feeling, but at a much larger scale.
I just wish someone could stop this.
That’s odd, cuz I was just thinkin I hadn’t heard much from you lately. Used to show up in my feed very often. I’ll go back and slam some likes, but regardless, I say vent at will!
The 'rule of law' apparently only applies to those the administration wants to control. No wonder so many of us are questioning whether it means anything any more.
😡😡😡
Everyone please find a Labor Day Protest. Just an hour or two. You'll meet nice people. Take a picture of your sign. #WorkersOverBillionaires Labor Day · Mobilize share.google/u1nMdKP5JZsy...
Yes. Exactly.
Republican congress and senate and corrupt roberts court are in lock step with this regime to destroy democracy.
no apologies, keep up the good work.
Please don't just vent on Blue Sky. Please get on the phone or e-mail and vent to your reps in DC. It only takes a few minutes and it doesn't cost any money. We don't need money in politics. We just need people to participate. www.nationalfinancialplan.com
Vent away. It feels good to hear what we are all thinking 💪
Thank you for helping to get the truth out and keeping us in the loop. I appreciate you
The wheels of justice turn slowly, and if we truly believe in the rule of law, many of these battles have to be won in the courts, otherwise we would be just as lawless as they are. I'm putting my faith in attorneys like the Mark Elias Group and solo attorneys like Neal Katyal who know how to win.
A d still the pedophile hides in the oval office. Keeping the epsteon files locked up
And finally someone speaks truth! No apology necessary
Moral injury results in a lot of venting. No apologies are ever necessary when your, and any humans in this case, morals are violated.
Keep up the good work!
It is so frustrating. They get away with everything! We appreciate you.
I think the thing is, just what do we think can happen? Short of civil war that is.
I believe that as long as we have the second amendment, we should be using it and not just talking about it. This country needs to stand up and fight like hell because today it’s the immigrants tomorrow it might be you he might target those who are registered Democrats, then what?
That well-regulated militia seems not to be doing it's job...
No need to apologize, it is overwhelming. This admin is literally vandalizing, destroying and bankrupting American and no one seems to come up with a solution. We know people care but they don’t know what to do, organizations like ACLU, 50501 , GSUS and others need to unite and join their powers.
It's not overwhelming. Get out and fight to save your country. It is very nearly too late. Posting bullshit on bluesky does not count
Oh, that’s very fucking helpful. If you have a useful suggestion to make then say it. We are accustomed, in case you don’t know it, to having legal means to solve our problems and having groups and representatives out there to use the legal system on our behalf. 1/2
Most people are casting about for ways to deal with it. We need useful, workable ideas, not. some smug asshole preaching at us.
Was just musing on this fact today: everything this administration wants to do, good thinking or (too often) bad, they take the illegal route!! Every time! No legal review. No vetting of options, he’s just a toddler demanding satisfaction and legislators pat him on the head. Congress does nothing!
Democrats don’t have the control and Republicans are complicit
Democrats are the Only folks in Congress fighting for us! 🇺🇸💙
Vent away, I'm sorry that you guys have to deal with crap #8647 💙💪
SEEN.
Please don’t worry. It hasn’t felt like that at all but understand the concern. We all do need somewhere to scream and don’t want to ignore. So I’m here for it.
Many of us feel the same way! He just continues to move the goal posts, appealing everything to a higher court, counting on the Supreme Court to allow him to do whatever he wants. Sigh!
Totally understandable
But we agree with you and those that don’t know need to!
I think we are all feeling it -- just pushed to our absolute maximum ability to cope ....
Blue state attorneys general are making plans now for the inevitable clash
Too many people are complicit in the destruction and lawlessness with SCOTUS leading the charge
👆💯 No apologies necessary. You're feelings are the feelings of the ever dwindling same part of America.
It seems every conversation we have in our household leads to what he has been/is doing. You're not alone.
I’m sure I need to apologize to my husband as well for venting. He always apologizes to me for venting. Stay strong.
💯
It's like watching your house burn down while every says, "Yeah, that sucks. My house is burning down too. What can ya do? Eyyy oh."
lol...thats why we are all here
Lots of video footage, though. Lots of mildly outraged yelling, etc.
Because we did nothing to remove the traitors who have taken over our government and military/police force! 🤷🏼♀️
In being the Voice, you take on the stress, the emotion, & the horrors of this reality - observing first hand what is happening, taking the onslaught directly - you are, collectively, allowed your moments, which is part & parcel of heathy strength, ultimately.
It is time to maybe turn from directly ousting the Orange Tumor to putting constant, heavy pressure on every member of Congress and, to whatever extent is possible, on SCOTUS. The tumor is not being removed using any regular channels at this point.
Pressure your state and local reps, too. Governors can get environmental protection laws on the books, AGs can block orders, sheriffs can refuse to cooperate with ICE, constant participation from the bottom-up is what we need to push for.
HEAVY pressure, yes. A few hundred people are holding 100’s of millions hostage!
Thanks for all you do! I never call it an Administration. It’s a Fascist Regime!
This is what I think too.
Do not be so apologetic and nice. Please stand up for what is right and just.
Sue, sue, sue.
That's because the Congressional Republicans are so scared of "being primaried" that they wet their pant(ie)s at the thought of performing their Constitutional duty (which they swore and oath to) as co-equal branches and stand up to the things they know are illegal, stupid and/or wrong. COWARDS!
Dang it all... hee hee I really usually just flat out swear. Bit you are so brave to speak the hard core truth so many just say meh! Love you for this!!
Don't apologize. It's the appropriate tone for the moment.
It’s interesting ngl….
Right there with you. And, he’s positioning troops in Dem cities so they’ll cause enough trouble that people will march, there’ll be an incident, and -bingo- Martial Law and no election in November of ‘26! John Roberts will remain concerned.
Vent all you want. We're wailing too.
Many of us understand your frustration, sympathize, and empathize. I personally don't think you have anything to apologize for :)
This. Is. Precisely. Why. We. Have. The. Second. Amendment. When are we going to start using it?
Because when one party controls everything and they don't believe in the rule of law, what's left?
Agree entirely with your observation.
Right there with you. I hate the feeling of helplessness. I vote. I encourage others to vote. I've attended a few protests. I even sent postcards to voters. None of this has resulted in anybody in power standing up to Trump and taking away his power.
It's crazy-making.
Ikr! Makes no fing sense...this guy is the "epitome" of slimy...
The only thing he’s good at is conning people into believing him how many idiots believed him over and over again and voted for him.
No apologies needed!!! We all need to vent out!!! We all need to protest , because the situations are not acceptable!!! It’s INHUMANE Loud and Clear!!!We all need to stand and fight together to protect ourselves and our country from this Criminal!!!!💕🕊️🇺🇸⚖️🕊️💕
Apology not accepted. We all feel it. We’re in this together.
There must be a lot of hate bottled up in his tiny mind. I wish someone would relieve him of it.
No need to apologize. Keep venting. Do it with clarity and facts. Trump's tariffs are blowing up in his face and he's been MIA for days. No one even knows where he's at. He is a national security threat and the courts are winning. The SCOTUS is paralyzed. No way they'll make a ruling by 10/14.
Because EVERY REPUBLICAN IS BETRAYING THE COUNTRY. Why? Scared? Bought and paid for? Traitors? Or all of the reasons?
I'm sure the Democrat leader has written several strongly worded letters
If you can't vent about the moral decay of a country, then venting serves no purpose. Keep doing it; it's unifying.
Vent as much as you want. When you start lying I’ll tell you to shut up.
You're just saying what the rest of us are thinking
AllHandsOnDeck never give up please never ever give up 👀
I love watching this movie, back when we were still a DEMOCRACY
It is the Republicans that need to apologise for allowing and facilitating the unconstitutional move to a Trump regime. This would not have happened without Republicans efforts to obtain power by any means and it will be difficult to forgive what they have done.
I’m Australian, My Doc and I vented together a few days ago, then he decided to check my BP. He said “Come back in a month when we haven’t been talking about Trump and we’ll do it again!”
We feel the same way. Keep venting!
Very true
No worries, friend. Retired Fed here to offer support. It’s hard for all of us. We Shall Overcome. (Deep breaths…)
The only way something happens is if we make it happen. 85% of the police were on their side to begin, and most of the rest have been replaced with lackeys. So that leaves us. The real question now is - who goes first?
I appreciate all the hard work y’all are putting in to help us save Democracy!! We don’t have a choice but to fight back everyday in every way you are able!! I don’t want my granddaughters to grow up in this hellish nightmare. Idaho!! Let’s make some Music!!
i need a cartoon of trump on the shitter with the constitution as toilet paper with the epstein files and jan. 6 pardons in boxes in the bathtub… what have we done…….
It’s up to us- We all need to Stand Up and Protest to save democracy!
Thank you for venting….continue until things are straightened out.
If congress cared they would hold emergency session on the 25th amendment to oust him.
I totally understand this, but I disagree nothing is happening. He is being pulled into many court battles. Those take more time to see the results of, but it doesn't make it useless. He's gonna cause damage every day. It's a lot to handle, but if we don't lose our determination, I think we got it!
Never apologize for stating genuine feelings & truth. Never.
Yes, the Germans were very passive too!. Remember why you have the 2nd amendment.
Don't apologize. I feel exactly the same as do millions of others.
I keep posting g this dedication to remind blue states that THEY ALL NEED TO RESIST AT ONCE! Nudge: All the guns are in Washington DC at the moment (litter picking, I've heard, as the crime wave is proving to be a little shy).
Where are the people who swore an oath to protect and defend The United States Constitution and We The People from someone exactly like Trump who was “installed” by a rigged election that never should have been tolerated?
A few GOP Senators and Reps could shut this all down if they could just Grow One Pair amongst themselves and say, "NO" to Trump. We know some of them want to, but they're afraid. GOP: What's to fear from Trump after a "no" compared to MAGA after a "yes?" Stop autocracy for your families' futures.
It makes me crazy. I feel totally helpless.
I feel the same way. I vent all the time about this administration
Don’t apologize. That is surrendering
I find it challenging to breathe properly. Thanks to the elimination of the CDC, will likely not improve. By all means, please, carry on.
I feel the same way. It's like constant rejection of the norm / decency. They keep getting their illegal way, and the legal way seems to be unable to stop the criminals. What world is this? MAGA broke the US. The world is so screwed. UGH!
I got stressed, sick even so I had to stop watching the good sources of info On YouTube. Could only muster Trae and pissed off Bar tender. Keep venting , no apology needed.
Venting is healthy!
No apology necessary. We all feel the same!
Thank John Roberts and Leonard Leo first Thank the senate Republicans of 2021 after that Sing an ode to the corruption of Eileen Canon and the rank stupidity of Fani Willis Then the current majority in the house Finally the Biden crew for bad messaging and not releasing Jeff-Ep files themselves

Wow, the parts I’ve gotten into look like good work! Thank you for being so bold as to self-promote! I may never have found your work otherwise. Here’s my most recent if you’ve the time: open.substack.com/pub/noelkeit...
ARREST TRUMP NOW ! ARREST THE SUPREME COURT NOW! ARREST THE ENTIRE REPUBLICAN PARTY IN THE HOUSE & SENATE NOW!! THEY HAVE PROVEN BEYOND ANY DOUBT TO BE TREASONOIUS TO THE CONSTITUTION & THE PEOPLE!! THIS IS WHAT MUST BE DONE NOW ! CALL YOUR REP, TELL THEM IT'S TIME TO GET THE MILITARY INVOLVED !!
People should sue this administration into oblivion. Flood the zone with so many lawsuits they can’t keep up. I would personally like some lawyers or law firm to come up with a class action suit for the mental duress they have caused millions of people
You need to vent and so do we. Abuse with people or places we love is what we are watching. Vent away.
That's THE most mind boggling thing, nothing happens. It shows that all the big talk about the constitution etc was just theory, big talk.
No need to apologize for valid emotions. It feels like March 2020 all over again, but much, much worse. Joe Biden, Nancy Pelosi, Liz Cheney, Hon. Ruth Bader Ginsburg, et al. have left the building. 😟
No apologies needed. We feel the same.
His enablers are firmly in control of the other two branches and the only mechanisms for correction.
You mean like what happened during the Obama and Biden Admins?
Yes. We are now A Fascist state as the military now patrols our cities with more cities to come, per Comrade Agent Orange. It is shocking I agree but this is what it’s like. Its been a few generations since this level of Fascism has been seen, therefore it is highly unfamiliar and numbing to see.
It’s the perfect storm and the US is on a run away rollercoaster it can’t get off!
Nothing happens because the Supreme Court has given Trump immunity for his actions!
We were all warned. Ad nauseam in fact. Remember this moment: it wasn't the pols who failed us: it was we, the people, who failed to take heed, and act accordingly.
Or Elon. 🤷♂️
Hang in there. You are bringing attention to these terrible things; that is important. But to do that, you have to immerse yourself in it. Take a break from it, if you need.
That’s bc that which is illegal moves faster than the courts! And now that we have people in the highest court that bow down (which by the way should all be impeached)- there is no one that will hold him accountable!
In solidarity over here
It’s utterly demoralizing and heartbreaking, but we have to practice self-care and carry on when we can.
It's ok. Two is the loneliest number that you ever knew. If someone could just forward me the invite to the strategic planning session on fighting fascism, I'll block the time.
Nothing happens because a radical bunch of terrorists have taken over the government
Please don’t apologize! You educate and you confirm! Grateful for you!
Vent away. Vent as much as you need.
When Americans start protesting governors and state AGs for ignoring this federal crime spree, perhaps something might happen. I think a few key figures are going to have to be put down or strung up to get the right wings attention. They think they can do anything, and so far, they can.
Sadly "seems to be" is incorrect. It should be "is." Almost every move IS illegal, unlawful, or outright unconstitutional. Acadia to Olympic and Gates of the Arctic to American Samoa...we stand with you and appreciate what the NPS is and does.
It appears most elected Dem officials bent the knee took the money and ran all the way home.
Genocidal blue is complicit
Blue states pay for every red state. Schools, roads, police... Let's stop supporting Trump states. youtu.be/ml9fhJGF59g?....
Seems the only viable resistance rests with blue states. Congress and the Supremes are in the bag for the orange rapist. All that remains is the local courts and holding on by our fingernails in hopes of still having an election in 2026.
I still say second amendment, use it while you still have it
Second amendment is the only thing that won't be taken away bc most of the people using it are white male domestic terrorists. Let's not use the same rhetoric they do.
All authoritarian or totalitarian will do this in the end and that’s when all hell breaks loose so you see it’s just a matter of time
It’s okay to take time out for you mental health. It’s okay to vent, there’s too much for one person to hold inside and it will break you if you try. If anyone makes you feel otherwise; tell them it’s Dogtor’s orders.
Yeah, like, where is our military? They are supposed to protect us from traitors. It's obvious by the casual observer that the DOJ, FBI, ICE, CIA, Homeland security, national guard, US Marshalls, Secret Service, Police Union, and Congress are all in the treanous camp. So many enforcement agencies.
Donald Trump is a Russian asset and a traitor. He's also a liar, a sexual deviant, possibly a pedophile, a convicted felon, a cheater at everything, an adjudicated rapist and an all around bad guy. Release the Epstein files! Keep that war criminal Putin out of our country
With as much work as Trump has put into blocking the release of the Epstein files... how could he not be a pedophile? Be real here: you KNOW he's on the list. He doesn't get the benefit of the doubt anymore
Believe the children.
We need a savior to rise up on the left.
Vent away!
Thank you. You are so appreciated. Vent, say what you need to say as you share the truth and inspire action.
It is maddening.
Vent MORE. Don’t apologize! This is arguably the most critical time in the history of US
Right there with you. No apologies needed here- think most of us feel you with this! Venting is one reason we are all here together. Get each other good and riled to get together and fight for each other, for our Democracy. You are brilliant!!
It's almost unbelievable 😲 if we weren't witnessing it for ourselves... 30573+++ should have been enough 🧐 Epstein Epstein Epstein 🥴
No need to apologize for venting. I'm in a Discord group that has an entire header for "Venting"...
Don’t apologize. I feel like you’ve been a voice of reason amidst the madness. Grateful for you.
