This Is Not Normal,This Is Not OK! :Day 36

Trump’s Daily Crime Roundup:

—————–

In sad but predictable news, almost all of Trump Cabinet gave him huge sums of money either before or shortly after the election.  If you ever wanted to know why these people got the jobs they are clearly not qualified for, its because they just purchased the positions.

—————-

Trump doesn’t take the presidency seriously.

—————–

Corporate democrats are still voting with Trump.  They must be be replaced with real progressives, we need strong populist opposition party or none of this will ever get better.

————–

Scott Pruitt the shit ball head of the EPA, is a puppet for the oil companies.  They literally had him “copy and paste” their views into lawsuits.  And to anyone that got upset about Clinton’s emails, he seems to be having trouble with his as well.

Make sure your senators know you are not happy about this.

—————

Trump plans to enforce federal weed laws.  Returning to the bad old days of arresting people for weed, mostly black and brown people, continuing the failed war on drugs.  Obama should have de-scheduled this drug, should have fought harder to decriminalize it.  What about state rights?

Could it be that Jeff Sessions is a big supporter of private prisons, and decriminalizing weed will cut into their profits?

—————-

Betsy DeVos went right along with Trump’s removal of Trans rights, even though she apparently didn’t want to.  No courage, no honor, no morals.   She should have resigned in protest if she really cared about this.  These people are not qualified in any sense for these positions.

—————–

Trump is government of the rich, for the rich, by the rich.  Ivanka Trump (who apparently gets to propose laws now) has proposed a half trillion dollar child care plan, that only helps the wealthy.

—————

Trump plans to bypass the court and deport as many people as possible.  This mass deportation started under Obama, and Trump is picking up all the tools left to him by a feckless “republican light” administration and running wild with them.

————–

No big deal, Trump just might start a nuclear war…

The Resistance!

Saturday feb 25th!  Start your own rally to save The Affordable Care Act!

Science March! April 22nd!

Women’s General Strike March 8th! (international Women’s day)

—————–

Marko Rubio is scared to have a town hall because his constituents are super pissed off at him.  What a coward, Gabby Giffords was shot in the face and still had town halls.  Marko Rubio doesn’t have the backbone to be an elected leader.

—————-

You want to know why Planned Parenthood funding is important, because birth control has saved 200,000 lives since 2006.

————–

Europe plans to get rid of all its coal plants.

————–

Thank God for the Notorious RGB.  She has vowed to stay on the court as long as possible.

————–

Even republicans are asking Trump to release his tax returns now.

————–

Spain is actually jailing its bankers that commit crimes.  Note to the US, this is how its done.

————

Tools of change:

Feel like this is all a bunch of bullshit?  Want to do something about it?

Calling your government representative:

Call your Senator
Call your House Rep (Or use this spreadsheet)
Call your Governor
Or try this website
Fax Congress here (free!)

You can also use 5Calls.org if you are having a hard time figuring out what to say.

Tell them in no uncertain terms that you want them to fight to stop Trump from doing these things. Tell them you will be watching them closely on how they vote, and will hold them accountable during the next election if they cave to Trump.  You can also call other states congress people and threaten to donate to their opponent if they don’t do what you want.

Call the “White House”:

Use this  website to call one of Trump’s many properties he has not put into a blind trust yet, and let them know how you feel (be polite, they are workers just like us, but be firm).

Go to a town hall and talk to your congress person in person:

Check when the next town hall is here

Monitor your congressperson:

Keep track of how your senator is voting on cabinet picks here, so you can call them up and give them hell if they vote for any of these worthless fuckers.

See how your elected representatives are voting for or against Trump.

Also be sure to keep track if you live in a district with an upcoming flip-able seat (flip to the left that is)
