Boycotting Amazon / Jeff Bezos, Facebook/ Mark Zuckerberg, and Starlink / Elon Musk the richest of the richest. We are funding MAGA Rats through these Trump supporters. I can do without whatever it is they offer.
The Police have always monitored without involvement our protest here in Kerrville Texas but this time they did stop 3 trucks that sped by, accelerating to blow black diesel smoke on us. No Trump Train that continually circled the Courthouse where we march this time. Lots of middle fingers pointed our way.
I am donating to Palestine and Gaza people. I am boosting voices that are against this illegal war. I am deprogramming myself from capitalism. Thank you!
Defeating the fascists in WWII did not happen without sacrifice from the citizens of the Allied countries. We will have to sacrifice to stop and reverse the fascist takeover of our country. We can sacrifice a little now or a much greater amount later.
Too many in The Resistance and the general public, seem to think that there are still rules and guardrails. That the system will work. That all we have to do is vote in large numbers in the midterm election. Too many looking for an easy fix that will not inconvenience them.
We are in a street fight with the forces of fascism. There are no rules, no guardrails. There is only what His Royal Heinous decrees, and he controls all the levers of power. The system is not working.
How much do you want to stop His Royal Heinous and the fascist takeover of the country?
Enough that you’re willing to make a small sacrifice? Like altering your spending habits for a month or two or three? That could be all it would take to get the attention of the oligarchs (formerly known as The Robber Barons in the first Gilded Age, also The Fat Cats, The Greedy Bastards).
A brief demonstration of We, the People’s, power of the purse could persuade them to quit supporting HRH and the politicians who enable him.
We quit spending, except on essentials, businesses lose money, stock market goes down, Greedy Bastards pay attention to our demands.
Greedy Bastards own most of the politicians of both major parties. GBs start losing money, then they tell the politicians to change course and do what We, the People want.

From Mark Mansour:
Sacrifice has always been the price of renewal. Democracy, if it is to survive, cannot be the cheap luxury item of a populace too comfortable to fight for it. The Trump regime can be resisted through civic courage, legal challenge, and organization. But it can also be starved—one deliberate, withheld dollar at a time.
8M is an undercount. I know I didn’t “RSVP” and attended all No Kings. I also know that in blood red Martin County FL there were at least twice as many people as at previous No Kings protests. Well in excess of 1000 this time around.
Americans, when are you going to get it! The regime doesn't care about how many of you protest. Neither do his billionaire buddies. They'll sit back and drink and expensive brandy at his club and chortle at the "little people" and their demo. Stop buying THEIR products and let them know why. Flood their inboxes with your reasons that you don't like this! Wearing silly costumes is an insult to the people that have died! Like Alex Preddi and Renee Good and the multitude of brown people who have been killed and traumatised in YOUR name. Or forever hold your tongue. He's still killing people in your name just not in your land. Does that not matter to you? 165 little girls in school is your enemy?
Gosh, the numbers were amazing…weren’t they? And…not enough. Not enough to strike that band of Fear into a corrupt government but it’s not because we don’t care—WE care plenty (my own “caring cup” is overflowing)—we just don’t know how to motivate the unmotivated into action. This certainly isn’t the time for Silence and is a time to (finally) meet your neighbors and talk about “stuff”. My farm disappears the surrounding homes so here’s my simple solution: I bake a lot so I decided to become the temporary bakery delivery service to strike up conversations and motivation. True, it can be viewed as Baking Bribery but I don’t see it that way. It’s past time for a visit and what better way than over homemade cookies or bread or a pie? Hey—don’t put it down, it works! Maybe we just need to motivate ourselves enough to become the bell ringers of America for America. We need 20 million Americans Marching peacefully and yes, we Can do it if we all get motivated enough to take one more step out. Or 20+ million Americans taking a May Day off away from buying anything and work—money always makes a statement in America! Imagine the positive outcome from just reaching out in your own community! (Please do use your imagination positively—if you can imagine it the possibilities rise). There is no better time than Spring to Rise Up. We can if we think we can and we act like we can.

Great numbers.
It was great on March 28th to be with so many people that feels the same way I do. It really renews your faith in people!
