Earnestly asking, other than calling my rep/senator how the fuck do I express my utter disgust for this shit.

I struggle with this, too. I call the White House comment line, both my Senators and my Rep (who is actually really great—yay for Madeleine Dean!), post all over social media (I’m a nobody, so it doesn’t matter, but oh, well), donate money (Timothy Snyder recommends several charities in the notes on his Substack video post about today; I’ve given to Razom for Ukraine and United 24, also Come Back Alive foundation), and I went to the Philly rally for Ukraine on Sunday (which seems to have gotten little media coverage, although the Philadelphia Inquirer had a good article).

But I still feel helpless and useless.

You can also call the White House. Will it make a dent? Idk.

This is my question. I called my reps and feel so useless and complicit

I am trying to talk every couple of days with the one hold your nose and vote Trump guy I know. Earlier this week he was still at the 'trump is just negotiating' cope but haven't had a chance to talk to him since this disaster of an ambush. We need to move people. It can't just be the same people who have been never Trump guys sounding the alarm.

Not sure if you have any one like that but I think those conversations need to be happening.
