I hate this so much this stupid fucking country never learns, you people voted for a fascist, a literal bigot. “The golden age of America begins” no it’s the fucking downfall, the downfall that has been happening for decades. “Oh maybe he’s gonna help America you never know! Maybe he’s changed.” Have you heard the immensely racist, xenophobic, sexist, homophobic, etc things he has said?! If this country would rather have cheaper gas than safety for minorities, I would like to fucking leave.

🎶Well, maybe I am the fa**ot, America

I'm not a part of a redneck agenda

Now everybody do the propaganda

And sing along in the age of paranoia🎶

Waiting for gas to get expensive enough that the city-job people stop buying the country.

Suburbs should be more dense, rural should mean farm country, public transportation should be literally everywhere and suburbs walkable.

Also for god sakes, cap rents with a ratio of wage rates / inflation. Make being a landlord a service, not a paycheck. If they suddenly sell the properties they can't afford, guess wwhahaaaaat, house prices will drop!!

But seriously!! Get out of the back country! I will build from scratch or rebuild your lame McMansions when they're abandoned.

Please, I just want to be able to have a garden (without city toxins) and a tiny house, is that too much to ask T_T

One of the goals of Project 2025 was to consolidate power to the Executive Branch. Trump's newest Executive Order has done just that.

All federal agencies, including independent regulatory commissions, are now subject to direct White House control.

Regulations cannot be issued without presidential approval.

The Office of Management and Budget (OMB) can now withhold funding from independent agencies if they don’t align with White House priorities.

All federal employees must follow the President’s and Attorney General’s interpretation of the law, eliminating legal independence.

A White House Liaison is to be installed in every independent regulatory agency to enforce direct presidential control.

⚠️ This is the biggest executive power grab in U.S. history. ⚠️

This formally ends the concept of an “independent” regulatory agency, dismantling one of the last barriers to absolute executive power.

This order effectively erases the last major restraints on executive power. The federal government no longer operates with checks and balances. Regulations and laws are now dictated solely by the President. If left unchecked, this is the moment the U.S. ceases to function as a democratic republic.

1️⃣ The President Now Controls All Regulatory Agencies

The SEC, FTC, FCC, and FEC are no longer independent.

The Stock Market is now subject to White House control, enabling insider trading, favoritism, and targeting of political opponents. Antitrust laws can be selectively enforced, allowing administration-friendly monopolies to expand unchecked. Political opponents in the tech sector, media, or finance can be targeted with regulatory action while allies are protected. Elections are now influenced by direct White House oversight of the Federal Election Commission (FEC).

The FDA, EPA, and consumer protection agencies are fully politicized.

Drug approvals, food safety regulations, and environmental policies can be rewritten for political or corporate interests. Climate change regulations can be erased overnight. Scientific research is now subject to White House approval before public release.

🚨 Implication: There is no longer any neutral enforcement of economic, environmental, or election laws. Everything is now dictated by political loyalty.

2️⃣ The White House Can Block Agency Budgets or Direct Funds Elsewhere

The OMB can now adjust funding allocations for independent agencies.

This gives the President the power to defund agencies without needing Congress. Regulatory agencies that challenge presidential policies will be quietly strangled of resources. Agencies loyal to the President will receive full funding—even illegally. 🚨 Implication: Congress no longer controls federal spending on regulatory enforcement. The executive branch can choke out opposition agencies and reward allies.

3️⃣ The President & Attorney General Have Final Say on All Legal Interpretations. All federal employees must follow White House interpretations of the law.

The Attorney General’s opinions override agency lawyers, inspectors general, and independent counsel. Agencies cannot adopt their own interpretations of legal statutes—everything must align with the President’s views. The President can rewrite federal legal interpretations overnight. 🚨 Implication: Legal consistency is gone. Agencies cannot push back against corrupt, illegal, or unconstitutional directives because the President’s interpretation is the only interpretation allowed.

4️⃣ Installing White House Liaisons in All Regulatory Agencies. A “White House Liaison” will be placed in every independent agency.

This ensures constant presidential oversight of daily operations. These liaisons will report agency actions back to the White House and enforce political compliance. Agency directors will no longer have the ability to act without White House approval.

🚨 Implication: There is now a direct enforcement arm inside every regulatory body. Even agencies that resist presidential control will be internally monitored and controlled.

Every regulatory body—from financial markets to environmental protections—is now politicized. Congress no longer controls federal funding—agencies must obey the White House or risk defunding. The President’s legal interpretations override all agency autonomy, eliminating independent enforcement of federal laws. The federal bureaucracy, once designed to be resistant to corruption, is now completely subject to presidential loyalty.

oh fuck trump's getting into office on Monday. OH FUCK WE'RE SCREWED. OH FUCK-

genuinely so concerned for anyone living in the USA right now, this isn't you fault (unless you voted for trump, in which case get out of here you're not welcome here in the slightest) and I hope you can live safely in the next few years

[sleazybag]

Americas healthcare system is a fucking joke and Luigi is the modern-day robin hood

[duststromofthought]

For once, I can't just roll with this shit.

I am will be in active danger for the next four years or more of my life. My boyfriend will be in danger.

And I can't just pack it under some fucking rug can kick it into the basement of my brain.

I might have to marry my boyfriend next month for citizenship to another country and we might have to move there once this (school) year is over.

And what is worse is I can't help but think about how my parents probably voted. About the fact they probably voted third party or Republic about how my grandparents voted.

TW BELOW: suicide

I am thinking that if my boyfriend and I can't get out in time, we will just have to die. And that I will have to supply what kills us because it will be less painful than any other method and I don't want him to suffer.

I hate this.

I hate the people who are afraid because they were told that we were here to harm them and then didn't listen to our side.

I hate those who claim to love those in the LGBTQA+ or that are POC or that are disabled or that are woman and then go vote Republican.

I hate America.

I hate humanity.

I hate what we have become.

I hate what this is.

I hate.

I hate.

I hate.

I hate I hate I hate

That I am a person too, yet the majority of people in my life that I have cared for since a young age deny me my right to life.

I hate being an American in this trying time.

I want to not exist.

Fuck you.

Peace was never an option after you wanted me to die.

We need to bury the infected corpse that is America.
