Description

Ruth Ben Ghiat reminds us that unless we want America to become a white, christian ethno-state, we need to be engaging now. Now is the best time as the administration sets everything on fire and people start to feel the pain. According to Ruth, we’re actually ahead of the curve in terms of resistance, so we need to ramp it up, if anything overcompensate with positive action. Autocrats want us to feel helpless and hopeless, but we’re not. Getting out of this mess is going to be an uphill battle, but it’s not a lost cause. In fact, if we play our cards right, we might even be able to build something way better than we had before.

The first thing Dems must do is to cancel Musk's & Theil's government contracts and those of all the billionaires in with Trump and investigate them.

The GOP has gone down the path that leads to their humiliation and renunciation. And history will remember.
