It begins
I don’t think any democrat can say they were excited about the results of the 2024 election. In fact there are a lot worse things you can say. But we held our noses and tried to be some form of patient as we waited for the president to do some of those things he said on the campaign trial. Something something unite America, bring down grocery prices, not be project 2025, and make us great. But right off the bat the orders started flowing in firing the inspectors generals, abolishing Congressionally mandated departments of the government, ignoring judges orders, redirecting government payments, and recommending unqualified cabinet members.
He has ignored the first article of the constitution by choosing what funds to not pay.
He has ignored the second article of the constitution by oversteeping his bounds.
He has ignored the third article of the constitution by ignoring multiple federal judges orders.
He has ignored the fifth article of the constitution when he ordered an end to birthright citizenship by executive order as well as other executive orders such as the one on Feb 14th saying only the DOJ can interpret constitutional law among other things.
He is waging a battle against the first amendment of free speech by telling publishers not to publish certain books or not get government contracts and his war against protesters at universities.
He ignored the fifth amendment of due process when he sent migrants to a different country without trial.
He has ignored the 14th amendment when he ordered an end to birthright citizenship.
And there’s so much more.
At what point do we ignore the constitution that gives him power?
But far from using this as a medium to list the things the current administration is doing I would like to use this as a place to talk of the things the democrats are doing to help the state we live in.
Starting with Cory Booker standing to speak for 25 hours.
With Senator Ron Wyden holding town halls across Oregon.
With Bernie Sanders and Alexandria Ocasio Cortez holding Stop the Oligarchy rallies across the red states.
With millions of people showing up for rallies across america.
With local communities growing and building support.
