State of Emergency and Beyond “Indivisible"

WE MUST FIND ANY AND ALL EFFECTIVE WAYS TO EXERT ENOUGH PRESSURE TO DIMINISH THE HARM OF THE TRUMP/REPUBLICAN AGENDA.

With the Trump Administration past the initial inauguration stage, Americans will be negatively impacted by more and more actions and policies, either executive or Congressional, that harm our democracy, undermine hard won norms of respect in our multicultural society and, generally, further disadvantage the 99%.

Trump's strategic vision of chaos: Inventing a
non-existent crisis  so he can "solve" it
by Heather Digby Parton, Salon, February 22, 2017

In particular, given the ineptitude of the Trump Administration and the President's deception and emotional volatility, we are now at a vastly increased risk for many different kinds of crises, domestic and international. Also, the Trump Administration increases the real possibility of profound worldwide economic decline, heightened levels of international tensions, and increased, outright military conflicts. 

THIS IS A STATE OF EMERGENCY AND IF IT IS MADE TO SEEM NORMAL, 

IT IS DONE SO AT OUR PERIL.

What can we do to avoid a dark future under an incompetent, deceitful, mentally unstable President and Republican Congress? 

How do we deal with the “Donald” and his GOP supporters who are concerned with promoting the well-being of the economic elite and demonstrate an absence of sympathy/concern for the 99%? 

Our hope is an on-going and growing,
active and popular resistance movement.

The Resistance movement has to move beyond attempts to lobby/pressure the Republican Congress to be responsive to the MANDATE OF THE MAJORITY OF AMERICANS WHO VOTED AGAINST TRUMP -  AND THE EVEN LARGER MAJORITY OPPOSED TO TRUMP (as measured by all the National voter surveys before the election).

A permanent resistance is needed and this permanent resistance must use varied creative ways of mobilizing more voters to oppose the radically backward attack upon central American values and hard won gains!

• frequent, regular, (and spontaneous) protest demonstrations (including work stoppages, etc.)
• “ town hall meetings”
• community political education meetings
• teach-ins
• coordinate efforts with other like-minded groups - locally, statewide, nationwide
