The torching of the United States of America and the Globe can only be explained as the manic scorched earth policy of a twisted-demonic-resentful-insane-rotting weak man in his dying years, as fully supported and propped up by individualistic cowards, whose very political quests, can only be viewed as self-serving and antagonistic to the very people they promised to serve.

Donald J. Trump and his REPUBLICAN MAGA accomplices took hold of the White House and Congress 100 days ago, reflecting the lowest approval rating of an American presidency in recent history.

He has nuked what was a healthy Biden economy, and launched a barrage of attacks on freedoms, free speech, health, environment, social protections, education, asylum seekers, refugees, minorities, LGBTQI+, women, people of color, immigrants, journalists, foreign aid, humanitarian assistance. He has attacked and defied the rule of law, in his clear determination to decimate due process and democracy.

His administration, oozing with white supremacist ideology, is set to enable racist practices with its attacks on diversity, equity, and inclusion (DEI) programs.

Lest we forget how he has presided over and failed on so many of his promises: return of the hostages, ending the war in Ukraine and Gaza. During his this time he as served to enhance rather than improve antisemitism.

His destructive policies are reverberating globally as well, as the administration abruptly ended US foreign aid programs, cut life-saving assistance for hundreds of thousands of people in conflict zones, and abandoned efforts to support human rights defenders, independent journalists, and fact-finding groups.

He has turned trade and strategic alliances upside down and is rocking the world dangerously – leading us into an abyss of the unknown. We are no longer a world power in the way we once understood it.

He thought he could align with our enemies – the cruel dictators – and even they are rejecting his advances. By turning on our allies, the U.S. is now wading in the icy waters of isolation. In another 100 days, if this continues, we will be treading those waters, and then by years end, drowning!
The reality reflects that with our resistance, his MAGA intention can be defeated, as while in some cases, the administration’s policies are moving ahead, in others, they are being reviewed or have been stopped by our courts. And in many more, they are being resisted by us – the ordinary people.

It is up to us to stay vigilant and not give up – and to work even harder to thwart this horror – by showing up at every opportunity for the resistance.

Every morning when we awake to this hell, with its potential for so much worse, we have to ask ourselves – ‘what can I do today that will serve to resist the fascism I am living through in real time. What “never again” am I witnessing that I can push back against?’

Do not wait for leadership – As WE THE PEOPLE – share equal responsibility – we all lead – with our humanity our consciences our smarts our dollars and our duty toward each other, our family, our ancestry, our country and the globe.

DO NOT BE SILENT… We cannot afford it – the more of us who show courage to speak out, the harder it will become to shut us up! SHARE THIS if you DARE!
