Hey Lev & Zev, when the Mueller report came out, there were people who went around AND ORALLY READ THE REPORT! Could the group of women hold a press conference with 50,000 people & read Virginia's book OUT LOUD WITH SPEAKERS ON!!! TAKE ALL THE EPSTEIN FILES THAT WE HAVE AND READ THE DOCUMENTS OUT LOUD!!

I like that idea! We could take it further: Publc book club with deep commentary, live participants plus social media broadcast, perhaps?

Sounds good. Perhaps Lev or maybe Indivisible could help. It would be a combination of Lev’s & Zev’s idea. The Epstein files are the ONE thing MAGA & we agree on. They are trump’s kryptonite. Throw those Congress members in that were a part of the press conference of Epstein’s survivors. Lev could help bring them together again.

Trump was able to strike enough blows to democracy that he turned the GOP towards authoritarianism & anti-democracy. Remember Thiel & others are anti-democracy!! DENY is a tactic of Roy Cohn. TRUMP & GOP ARE DENYING HISTORY & REWRITING IT! According to Ruth Ben Ghiat, a huge part of authoritarianism is MORAL COLLAPSE! That's what you have with the GOP.

The republicans personify moral collapse. Vile, the lot of them.

You can tell how much Zev and Lev love our country and want our democracy back in this Substack. Their passion is on full display! 💙

I really don't think Putin has to tell trump what tactics to use. Trump is using the tactics taught to him by Roy Cohn: delay delay delay, distract distract distract, deny deny deny, rinse & repeat. Stone has also used these tactics. They both have used them since the 70's. I think you're right, Zev, about concentrating in DC. Adam P camped down in DC (called it the Kremlin annex) during trump's first term. It was just a small group who were present at least every weekend, with music, speeches, etc. We know trump doesn't care about COTUS. Question is does SCOTUS still care. Meidas Touch has said trump has to be stopped as far as tearing down the WH. It's illegal & unconstitutional. Trump has NO intention of leaving, unless he's carried out in a casket. He's like a toddler, angry about No Kings2 , so he has a tantrum & starts bulldozing the WH!!

Methinks you’ve hit the nail on the head re no kings/tear down the White House. It’s infuriating and I’m with Ben’s call to get a lawsuit against it.

I disagree with Lev; Zev’s idea isn’t rah rah rah. The data about sustained protest toppling dictatorship is based on Maidan style protest. And yes, there are volunteers who would hungrily volunteer in shifts.

Today’s Five Stack became way too heated for my liking. When I felt my blood pressure rising because Lev was yelling and yelling and yelling, I had to turn it off I couldn’t even understand the points he was making for all the yelling.

Thank you for remaining calm through it.

You came on boldly, initially, making your points about protesting more and protesting daily.

I don’t know exactly what set Lev off, but it was not the side of him I wanted to see, nor hear.

Personally, I’d prefer to laugh and cringe with you and Dean, than to witness that again. Not what I tune in for.

Just saying.

And Zev’s daily sustained protest can be a broadcast of the Trump Tyranny Tracker!!!

Zev’s idea of protest using the Constitution to support ousting the government: yes, do it like the Maidan. Make it like Occupy Wall Street, but with a constitutional/regime change endpoint. Sign up in shifts like the Maidan, 24h/d, volunteers, food for protesters, healthcare if needed, a sustained protest which will not end until…goal achieved.

TRUMP DECLARED WAR ON WE THE PEOPLE-DEMOLISHING THE WHITE HOUSE, ILLEGALLY. HE HAS COMMITTED HIGH TREASON BY OVERTHROWING DEMOCRACY. ALL TRUMP SUPPORTERS ARE TRAITORS SUPPORTING DICTATORSHIP. WE THE PEOPLE -TRUE PATRIOTS-WILL HOLD MILITARY TRIBUNAL & HOLD ALL TO THE CONSTITUTION

What are the steps to get to this point? Do we need to convince the military they have the majority of people behind them? Are they the leaders in this?
