TOMORROW IS national Shut down day. It's also the last chance for the congress to approve the ongoing budget so there have been calls for a budget shutdown. Anyway No work, no school, no businesses, no purchasing.
I'm not sure where to put this, but I have not seen the original WSJ arcticle:

@anya maybe we the people should file a class action lawsuit for a trillion against him and his gang for what they have done to our country and us.
I do remember around late 2019 and 2020 I kept hearing/seeing visions of " Caponing" him... I thought at that time? It was meant for his first term. It may have been for now.
@journeywithme Has this led to lasting change? My feeling is that class action lawsuits only lead to around 40 dollars payouts. Don't the lawyers make bank, and everyone else basically gets Macchiato money?
Here we go, the economic strikes are starting to happen.

@anya financial gain by individuals? Is not the point... it's about restoring our governmental boundaries.
This is for you... could not find the post you made about pine tree sharing a trunk ... but here's mine, in my front yard.
I am not completely against it, but I would put the most energy in defending freedom of the press and making sure ICE and the individuals within ICE follow the law. I personally would put all efforts on that until everything shifts to something that resembles a democracy.
If anyone goes that route, I would get the best and whitest male lawyer available so there will be no distractions to the case.
@anya I put my energy in fighting any way and every way that I can. I am a Domestic Violence survivor and have fought many times to get laws changed and women heard and protected. I may be a septuagenarian? but I will always speak up and help every way I can any time I can.
In Chicago, cyclists bought out immigration-threatened street venders early in the morning, so the vendors could take their earnings and go home early rather than be exposed to ICE.
