I fear by the time the American people wake up and realise the damage that has been done, it will be far too late
ReplyDeleteAfter four years it will be impossible to get back to square one.
DeleteLarson is spot on! We need more like him.
ReplyDeleteHis articulation of the anger he feels was very impressive. Hopefully it will inspire many others to join the fightback.
DeleteKeep up the resistance and pressure.
ReplyDeleteAll power to our American brothers and sisters.
DeleteGood words from Bernie Sanders and Mr Larson. I'm beginning to wonder when the people's rebellion is going to begin, surely there are enough people by now who have had enough of Trump and Musk? Enough people who decide it is time to start fighting back? There has to be something that can be done to stop this insane takeover of people's rights.
ReplyDeleteI sense that a real fightback is brewing. Trump's popularity has plunged rather like the graph of Tesla sales in the USA.
DeleteThe push back is good, but how long will it take?
ReplyDeleteI don't know but it is heartening to see that many Americans are not just lying down and taking it.
DeleteTwo very strong speeches, Larson expresses the anger at the whole injustice of it. How did it happen all so quickly? A coup of the worst kind.
ReplyDeleteIt happened and continues to happen in plain sight.
DeleteIt's going to be a long four years to the next presidential election sadly.
ReplyDeleteYou are right. The damage caused by Trump and his gang will be dire by then.
DeleteIt is my greatest fear that in four years - nay, in two years - public participation in nationwide elections will not take place, then or ever again!
DeleteWill the MAGAts mind as they bow to their king?
DeleteBut will the people on the other side of the fence bother listening to it?
ReplyDeleteWell the hardline Trumpians and MAGAts may not listen but gradually the majority of ordinary Americans will understand what is happening to their once beloved country.
DeleteGood to know there are official protests going on as well!
ReplyDeleteWhat happens in the USA impacts on Sweden and Great Britain.
DeleteIt is remarkable and appalling how quickly things are being changed in the USA. I fear there will be blood in the streets before too long. Trump and his ilk will be remembered for destroying America.
ReplyDeleteAlready Tesla cars are being vandalised in protest. The fight-back is happening though news media give it very little coverage. Fox News is like Trump's mouthpiece.
DeleteWoman behind Larson is yawning.
ReplyDeleteShe is young and does not understand.
DeleteOr was perhaps up all night, preparing notes. One never knows.
DeleteGood point.
DeleteThere have been many, many protests across the country and many town hall meetings where people are speaking out. More and more news outlets are reporting on the illegal actions of this administration. Many, many lawsuits to stop what has been done and so I still have hope that they will be stopped. They have ruined our reputation and I am glad other countries are speaking out against them.
ReplyDeleteCancelling "Voice of America" is an act of wanton vandalism.
DeleteRemember Vance's rant about Europe and our supression of free speech? What a loud-mouthed hypocrite he is.
DeleteThank you for posting those videos. I had heard Bernie Sanders talking about this, but hadn't heard the Connecticut's representative. His anger was well directed. I am just so sick about what is happening here.
