The United States, for me, officially becomes a failed state today. To get here we had to pass a few milestones. Reagan tax cuts. The Contract With America. Invading Afghanistan and Iraq. Citizen’s United. Trump’s first term. Trump’s vast crimes. Trump’s failed coup attempt. And then finally the great paradox of Joe Biden’s ability to defeat Trump, but not prevent Trump’s return.
So we’re doing this. And it is happening quickly. We’re going to destroy what’s left of the republic as quickly as possible. We’re going to invade allies. We’re going to give what’s left of our nation to the billionaires. We’re going to burn all the fossil fuels we can. And we’re going to make sure people alive today witness the end of the United States in their lifetimes.
Biden, on his way out, preemptively pardoned people who didn’t commit any Federal crimes. That was foolish. All it does is invite Republicans to invent crimes against them after today’s date. I don’t think it’s even constitutional to pardon someone who hasn’t been convicted yet. Many legal scholars say it is, but I have to agree with Marcy Wheeler that it’s a bit idiotic and and bad idea overall.
Biden also let Leonard Peltier go home, at the end of his life. That’s better than nothing.
In his two, unscripted speeches, Trump continued his dark, violent tone that he adopted in 2022. His presidency is going to work very fast and dirty. Big crises are going to come and go at lightning speed. Our news media has never been equipped to handle it objectively. And millions of Americans are going to suffer greatly.
I’m a mess, mentally. A lot of us are. We just got a month’s worth of news in half a day. The bottom line is that must resist Trump and all Republicans. They are an evil cult. I don’t use the word evil lightly. I never user the word cult lightly. They are evil. They want to destroy us. We must not let them. We can split up the US if we must. We can war against them figuratively and physically. But we can never allow them to win.
Hate them. It’s more than okay to do so. Then hate them more. Sue them. Make them toxic. Drown them, in their toxicity. Slow their March and push them away, out of the Northeast and West Coast.
And yeah, secede. Eastern Canada, New England and Greenland ought to become the Republic of Atlantica.
