Trump Watch:
The scandal that just wont stop. Russia and Trump. Now it seems the FBI got a warrant to monitor Carter Page. Trumps former adviser. This guy is a real piece of work, and dumb as rocks. Can we just get this over with and throw the lot of them in jail already. They are clearly breaking several corruption laws as we speak, the rest of whatever shakes out in the investigation will just be icing on the impeachment cake.

Besty DeVos just undid Obama era student loan protections…because she wants to destroy education. Just like the head of the EPA wants to destroy the environment. And Rex Tillerson is destroying the state department. Jeff Sessions is destroying the justice department. We have allowed the worst people to be in charge of things.

People are still giving republicans hell at town halls, the latest is Joe Wilson you might remember him as the jackass that was so racist he couldn’t keep from screaming “you lied” at Obama during a state of the union, back when things like that were shocking. How far we have fallen in the era of the pussy grabber. Paul Ryan would get the business as well, but he is avoiding town halls, by going to theme parks.

Trump’s modeling agency to shut down after exploiting illegal immigrants. Basically anything Trump says, he is doing the opposite.

North Carolina bill looks to ban gay marriage…seriously we need to get some councilors into that state house. No one is this angry at LGBT people who is not deeply closeted. This has all the earmarks of someone who is very gay trying very hard to push that fact deep down until is burns into hatred. Its ok, come out, stop being such a dick, we all want you to be happy. Stop trying to pass laws like this!

James Thompson got very close to beating a republican in a DEEP red district. I applaud his fight, and think that this shows that republicans and corporate democrats are vulnerable all over the country.

Call your Attorney General
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).
Do a little Slacktivism:
Send Some Text Messages for progressive causes (I know it says textforbernie, but its for a range of progressive candidates) Or you can have your texts turned into faxes by the ResistBot
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)
