Rule 1: Posts have the following requirements:
▪️ Post articles about the US only

▪️ Title must match the article headline

▪️ Recent (Past 30 Days)

▪️ No Screenshots/links to other social media sites or link shorteners

Rule 2: Do not copy the entire article into your post. One or two small paragraphs are okay.

Rule 3: Articles based on opinion (unless clearly marked and from a serious publication-No Fox News or equal), misinformation or propaganda will be removed.

Rule 4: Keep it civil. It’s OK to say the subject of an article is behaving like a jerk. It’s not acceptable to say another user is a jerk. Cussing is fine.

who does this guy think is listening? who does he imagine he's talking to? what does he imagine can be done about it now? democrats have no power to stop this, and republicans are lockstep behind trump. none of trump cabinet nominees are suited, educated, or experienced, and their only remit is to destroy the government agencies they're assigned to, so that in the chaos of dysfunction and death, trump can steal everything that isn't nailed down. he's get to the nailed down shit later, he's got plenty of time.

This is how you start a grass roots call for protest. You have someone who is respected call out the agency and see who joins the protest.
