I know not everyone can leave a fascist country. Many can, though, and for them the question is fight or flight. In recent weeks, it’s become more of a hot topic. Where some liken the hour to 1933 Nazi Germany as they tell people to make exit plans, others insist that because some can’t leave,

I keep waiting, and waiting, and waiting for more people to be outraged to action against this fascist Trump regime. At one time a ways back, I was sure that Americans would collectively scoff at the scapegoating of immigrants in our modern age. I was wrong. So many rabidly agreed with Trump, and so many

I’m going to be a bit bold here. I think the National Education Association, America’s largest union of ~3 million members, should be kicking the tires on a national teacher strike. A mid-year national teacher strike against the elimination of the Department of Education would be one of the most actionable disrupters to the fascist

Lets call this what it is so we can stop it in its tracks. This is a fascist coup on American soil. Media must call it out. The people must demand its end. And Congress must fulfill its oath to this beautiful country. Will the patriots rise up to unseat this would be despot?
