Was talking to a disabled vet, she was scared like the rest of us and wondered allowed what happened to the guardrails in our system of government, and I realized: WE (the Great Unwashed, the millions of ordinary American citizens) ARE THE GUARDRAILS NOW. Nobody is going to intervene and save the United States except for us. We're it.

EDIT: I meant to add this link (fixed now). If anybody wants to help organize, DM me. You don't have to be in or near DC to volunteer.

The orange tyrant is on track to spend over $50M this year on security for his many recreational outings (golf, NASCAR, Superbowl) and millions more for his many trips from DC to FL. Based on his record from first presidency, it works out to be about $4M per golf outing for fuel security, etc.. This is outrageous and unfair. Paying for these unnecessary activities with money taken from now jobless federal workers from Parks, NOAA, EPA, etc.. And this hipocrit chided Obama for one golf outing! Why pay our taxes if that is where the $ is going?!
And why is he recreating when he is supposed to be performing an very important FT job for all Americans?! How does he have the time? Perhaps his time would be better spent reading his briefings so he would learn useful information (e.g., where is Lesotho, how gravity works re: water supply, etc.) and stop embarrassing the USA on the world stage.

There are multiple sources of his expenditure data. See the links for examples sources. https://www.theguardian.com/us-news/2025/mar/09/trump-golf-trips

“NEW YORK (AP) — Federal immigration authorities arrested a Palestinian activist Saturday who played a prominent role in Columbia University’s protests against Israel, a significant escalation in the Trump administration’s pledge to detain and deport student activists.

Mahmoud Khalil, a graduate student at Columbia until this past December, was inside his university-owned apartment Saturday night when several Immigration and Customs Enforcement agents entered and took him into custody, his attorney, Amy Greer, told The Associated Press.

Greer said she spoke by phone with one of the ICE agents during the arrest, who said they were acting on State Department orders to revoke Khalil’s student visa. Informed by the attorney that Khalil was in the United States as a permanent resident with a green card, the agent said they were revoking that instead, according to the lawyer.”

WE SHOULD BE OUTRAGED! THIS IS NOT OK OR NORMAL!
