This Is Not Normal,This Is Not OK! :Day 85

Trump Watch:

The people of South Dakota democratically pass a sweeping anti-corruption bill. Republican legislature calls for “emergency” measures, cancels law, and blocks it from appearing on future ballots.  Well people of South Dakota,  are you going to take this from the sniveling cowards in your elected body?  Or are you going to kick the bums out?

It looks like Donald Trump is trying to bomb his way to popularity.  Jesus christ, this is what happens when TV news personalities cum in their pants every time he flings some missiles around.  Please for the love of god, don’t let him watch television anymore.

Stay Woke: While the US Was Bombing Afghanistan, Trump Was Secretly Signing Bill to Block Planned Parenthood Money

Behind closed doors, Trump signs bill allowing states to strip federal family planning dollars from abortion providers

Republicans Love the Same Attack on Syria They Hated When Obama Considered It

US drops largest non-nuclear bomb in Afghanistan – Trump has swung from “dangerously incompetent” to “dangerous” seemingly overnight. There is no strategy, other than making things explode to win applause. This man needs to be removed from office, because this seems to be deteriorating rapidly.

“Non-interventionist” Trump considering sending up to 50,000 troops to Syria. This is bullshit. We. Don’t. Want. Any. More. Wars.——————————

Ivanka Trump: Majority of young US women view Donald Trump’s daughter negatively, poll finds.  Dear Trump family, NO ONE LIKES YOU!  Seriously just take your money, and move to some off shore tax haven where we will never have to hear from you ever again.

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
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)
