Resist: It's Time

We are still in this together, but "this" is going to be real different in the very near future. This demands a different kind of "we."

The French Resistance during Nazi occupation played important roles delivering downed Allied airmen back to safety, supplying military intelligence, and acts of sabotage.

The Underground Railroad is estimated to have brought 100,000 freedom seekers to safety between 1810 and 1850.

It's time.

Is it weird that the whois information for that site has the registrant contact address in Iceland?

EVERY WORKER A MEMBER OF THE BOARD

This sounds like a terrible idea honestly. Also not within the realm of possibility.

How can you be protecting democracy when democracy chose Trump to lead it? There was an election and you lost.

He was democratically elected through voter suppression. The more people that vote, the worse the GOP performs.

Overall voter turnout was 63.7%. Voter turnout in states where Trump won was 63.4% Voter turnout in states where Harris won was 66.4%. States with the lowest turnout included Hawaii, Texas , West Virgina, Arkansas, and Oklahoma - almost all red states.

Texas is my favorite example of voter suppression. Texas should be a swing state. The GOP never held a majority in the Texas legislature until 2002. In 2003, they went all-in on redistricting, flipping Texas from a majority-Democrat Congressional delegation to 2/3 Republican between 2002 and 2004, with the dems never recovering. They also have laws written specifically to make it harder to vote in Houston, since it's 20% black and reliably votes blue.

I still think he cheated, and even if he didn't, he is breaking the law.

If only a few people show up and do this protest no one will care.

So do your part and make sure it's many.
