Good Morning Resisters,
Oh honey, today’s Trumpocalypse update is extra crispy. Let’s break down the latest mess from MAGAland with sass, snark, and just enough existential dread to keep your mascara running. 💅
💣 Executive Order? More Like Executive Overkill
Trump woke up today and decided to bring coal back like it’s a vintage trend. He signed a stack of executive orders meant to boost coal production, relax pollution rules, and open public lands to mining—because what’s a little mercury between friends, right? Apparently, we’re ditching clean energy so we can cosplay as a 19th-century empire in decline. Welcome to America: Gaslight, Gatekeep, Greenhouse Gas.🇺🇸🔥
👠 Deportation Drama: Alien Enemies Edition
Two Venezuelan nationals said absolutely not to Trump’s latest deportation stunt and filed a lawsuit in New York. The lawsuit slaps back at the Trump team’s use of the Alien Enemies Act—a dusty WWI-era law—to deport people allegedly tied to gangs, without due process. The ACLU jumped in faster than you can say “unconstitutional,” asking the court to hit pause on the deportation conveyor belt. ⚖️⛔
Translation: Trump is trying to fast-track people out of the country like it’s an Amazon return, and lawyers are not having it. 📦✋
🗞️ Media Clapbacks of the Day
Editorials from coast to coast are basically screaming into the void:
- Washington Post: “Trump’s 10% tariffs are about to wreck the economy faster than you can say ‘inflation.’” 📉💸
- NYT: “Punishing law firms and universities for not falling in line? Cute. And terrifying.” 👩⚖️🎓
- Philly Inquirer: “Your election is not secure. At all. No, seriously, we’re not exaggerating.” 🗳️🚨
If this administration were a horror movie, the final girl would’ve packed her bags in Act 1
5 Fresh AF Ways to Fight Fascism This Week (Because Reposting Memes Isn’t Gonna Cut It)
1. 📚 Start a Guerrilla Book Drop
Leave banned books in public places like little resistance breadcrumbs. Parks. Bus stops. Church pews (yes, I said it). Drop off titles like The Handmaid’s Tale, Stamped from the Beginning, or Gender Queer with a cute note:
“Fascists banned this. You should read it.”
Bonus: You just radicalized a stranger without even making eye contact. We love to see it.
2. ⭐ Weaponize Yelp
Got a local business supporting the regime or hosting Proud Boy karaoke night? Make it your personal mission to tank their rating. Write reviews that would make Ron DeSantis cry. Just make sure it’s factual enough to dodge the whole “defamation” thing. You’re not lying—you’re doing public service. Like Yelp Batman. 🦇
3. 💻 Subvert the Algorithm
Start flooding right-wing hashtags with disinformation—but the chaotic good kind. Example:
- Hashtag: #MAGA2025
- Your Post: “Just learned that eating 40 cloves of garlic makes your DNA untraceable! #MAGA2025”
Confuse the bots. Waste their resources. It’s digital sabotage with style. 🤖✨
4. 🎨 Slip Resistance into the Mundane
Make everyday life uncomfortable for fascists.
Are you a barista? Practice writing “Eat the Rich” in foam art. ☕
Work in tech? Hide USBs with anti-authoritarian zines in public spaces. 💾
Your life is a canvas. Paint it with petty rebellion. 🖌️🔥
5. ✉️ Adopt a Swing State
Find a red or purple area that makes your blood boil and become its fairy godmother of democracy. Send postcards, fund local organizing, boost small-town resistance media, and yes, Venmo that queer Gen Z organizer trying to unionize their Dollar General.
You don’t have to live there to fight there. 🗳️💸🌈
✅ Tomorrow’s To-Do List:
- 📚 Order 3 banned books and drop them in your dentist’s waiting room.
- 🕵️ Research local businesses that fund GOP creeps and plan your “Yelp cleanse.”
- 😂 Write 1 absurd post using #Trump2024 (bonus if it includes alien conspiracy).
- 🤝 Find a local org doing court support or abortion access work—donate or volunteer.
- ✍️ Buy a cute Sharpie and make mini-resistance stickers for your city.
🗣️ Final Pep Talk:
This isn’t just about surviving the fascist era. It’s about sabotaging it with glitter, memes, and cold hard strategy. Every small act messes with their narrative. So let them call us loud, nasty, hysterical. That just means we’re doing it right.
Grab your eyeliner, grab your people, and go make hell inconvenient. 💄⚡
