      We can make it. There’s a limit what the senate can get passed. Unless the GOP upends senate rules. There’s limits to what permanently can be done. And they are focused on taxes now.

      I’m sorry to say but that’s delusional. 18 more months of the current program and the US is likely ungovernable. DOGE is dismantling the bureaucracy, rendering its institutions useless right now. It will be extremely hard even to undo the damge done so far, rebuilding the IRS, USAID, NOAA, EPA, etc.

      The head of Project 2025 let out this, in July of last year:

      We are in the process of the second American Revolution, which will remain bloodless ― if the left allows it to be.

      – Kevin Roberts

      They are declaring states of emergency left and right, just because last year 2kg of fentanyl was intercepted at the border or something like that. The don’t need any excuse to wipe their ass with norms, rules and regulations.

      Sorry mate, but it’s too late.

      Even if you protest peacefully, your chances of getting hurt are still very high. That’s kinda the way these things usually happen. So I’ll just ask you this: Would you rather go down holding a sign or next to a burning building? lol You’ll be a terrorist either way, what with Trump blanket labeling protests as illegal.

      Also: The police are already armed like the military. We’re already at the full scale escalation. They have weapons you paid for, and they’re ready to use them on you. Just think about how regular every day cops make shit up so they can have a little fun. It’s over homie.

      Get a gun before you can’t.
