I am scared. I am currently subscribed to tiktok and get my news from some of the folks there and I am genuinely frightened for this country, for its people (even the idiots who voted for all of this).
my brother...whom I don't speak with (aftermath of the 2016 election results) no doubt voted against himself and his family. his wife (my sister in law) is from Mexico and only has a green card. they are stopping people with green cards. she is in Mexico visiting her mom who is sick. most likely she will be stuck in Mexico until this admin is removed...and my bro - because ny is apparently too blue for him, moved to South Carolina - he's currently in the path of the wildfires that are hitting myrtle beach at this time. he had to evacuate, this effing govt took away FEMAs disaster relief funding.
--------- hope the vote against the brown woman is working out for you brother....--------------
cybersecurity is being dismantled
medicaid, medicare, social security is in the crosshairs
states like Iowa and Idaho are overturning civil rights for transgender people and also have the laws protecting same sex marriage in the crosshairs.
massive firings from numerous govt agencies
and throw in a measles outbreak with one fatality (a child no less) brewing in Texas and New Mexico
and the loss of support from the EU...
mother fuckers.
I hope the name change from Gulf of Mexico to gulf of america is worth all of this shit.
this country has been sold to russia.
I truly hope that all parts of our military put an end to this coup.
