Every rule possible, and this was a fundamental error of the Biden administration and not enforcing in the most vigorous of ways, the harshest punishments possible coming out of J six. And that's what's led us.
To what we're facing today,
the Republican party and the Trump administration are clearly and obviously violating the constitution in every which way possible. And just calling it out is no longer going to be enough.

Their vision, and I've talked about this before, is a technocratic, theocratic dictatorship, and that is what they're going for. So the quicker we understand the rules of the game, The better equipped we'll be to play the game properly.
So what does this mean for us? What it means is that when we are looking five, six months down the road, we need to get really comfortable with asking ourselves the question, what's the sort of America that we want to live in? What's the sort of America that we want our kids to live in?

That agency has no constitutional authority, no congressional authority to do anything. And yet what are they doing? They're trying to do anything and everything to dismantle anything that protects workers rights.
And on top of that, that agency is covering up and deleting any evidence that is associated with pending litigation against Elon Musk. Let's keep in mind USAID being taken down, the Consumer Finance Protection Bureau being taken down, the FAA being taken down. All three of these agencies had open investigations on Elon Musk's business and they are getting taken down as a way for him to enrich himself.

We have Pam Bondi's ties to middle Eastern countries, and we have a collection of billionaires who have not disclosed their financial interests.
And we have an executive order. That was rescinded that prevented members of the executive branch from enriching themselves through lobbyists and lobbying efforts. And we haven't even talked about the crypto conflicts of interest that exists within this administration, this is a giant scam that is being run, and this is a speed run to a dictatorship that is being run.

Where this goes is going to be tied directly to what we do. So we need to get moving on every available action that we can take, whether that is economic protests, outright protests, Using all of our talents to mobilize everybody else and mobilize all of the various factions within the U S for a single purpose.

They've told you repeatedly what they plan on doing. They've told you that their plan is to fundamentally transform this into a white Christian nationalist nation.
We're long overdue to start taking them seriously, believe what they say and act accordingly. And if we fail to do that generations from now, people will be reading the history books and wondering. Why did the people of America not act when it was so obvious what was happening
