Six Easy Things You Can Do Today to Drain the Trump Swamp

Image
Notice how Trump hasn't said anything about "draining the swamp" lately? He claimed to be a champion for the little guy against government corruption. We now know that he is the spearhead for the corruption. He was on the verge of going bust, but thanks to YOUR tax dollars, he's flush. Not only that, but his family is vacuuming up lucrative deals and every time his ICE Gestapo gets sued, we pay in lives, lawyer fees, and settlements. And don't you worry - it won't end when he dies. Both lawmakers and corporations have seen how much money they can leech out of consumer wallets. But let's get to the point here.

How to Replace Trumped Services with Good Ones

 As you may have heard, one of the most potent tools we have for fighting the Trump kleptocracy right now is to unsubscribe from services like ChatGPT, Amazon Prime, Google Workspace, and Apple TV.

How to Blast Protest Jams WITHOUT A SPEAKER!

You don't need a giant speaker to blast protest songs at your next rally! How? It's appropriately people power: you get everyone to play the jams out of their cellphones! TOGETHER. Democracy at work.

BEATSYNC IS OUR #1 SOLUTION How do you get everyone on the same tracklist? Use a site called beatsync.gg. It's free and easy to use. You will need a net connection and a phone, tablet or computer. No registration or download needed. Once you set up a "room" for...
