It's now past 100 days.  And, oh how "wonderful" we all must feel.  Judges are reversing Trump  at breakneck speed. But have no fear.  Trump is ignoring them.  And a certain judge is jailed (with ridiculous trumped-up charges).  Canada, Greenland, and Panama are in Trump's trigger.  We transgender folks are in Trump's trigger also.  And immigrants?  Bye, see ya later (or not!).  Even citizens are not safe.  And the Dow Jones?  Can you sing free fallin'?  You wanna see a movie, just to relax?  If it's produced anywhere outside the United States, you'll pay a 100 percent tax!!!  Oh, yeah - he's gonna get a 400 dollar graft - uh, 'gift'  of a 400 dollar 747 from Qatar! 




And Trump blames Joe Biden???, 

But you CAN do something.   Hands Off is a great place  to start. Indivisible  is another great place.  If  you want to get to a really adventurous trek, start your own protest! It doesn't matter whether it's  five people or 100,000. It doesn't matter if you're from ColchesterCromwell , East GranbyEast Haven  or Easton in Connecticut - or anywhere in the United States - just do it!!!   

   


By the way, the second  nominates her/himself on the anti-trans bandwagon, offer your services in opposition  immediately!!! I can't make any promises, but the sooner you're working, the better the chances!  Oh, if no one sticks their toe out, YOU can do it!!!



T.A.C.O. Trump!

PROTEST!!!

 


protest in Northfield, MN (example)


ezs note:  Here in West Hartford, Connecticut, there will be a MAJOR protest/rally by LGBTQIA+ folks and their allies.  Connecticut is a small state, and West Hartford is centrally located, so folks should have little problem getting here.  Go to the Blue Back square (West Hartford center) and look for The Cheesecake Factory (Isham Road).

day/time:  11:00 am, Sunday the 17th

ezs note:  Here in Connecticut, although overall things are better, there are pockets of woe.  If you are a parent, do your best to your Board of Ed meeting and SPEAK.  If they give you a blind eye, do your best to turn them on their ear..
