I'm afraid that the #USAnians who are out organizing and trying to prevent a slide into #fascism are fighting the wrong war -- the last war, in fact.
That slide is over; the USA is now a fascist, #autocratic state. They need to be working as a #resistance, a #rebellion, an #insurgency, trying to put fascism down and restore a lawful state - not trying to be good citizens, writing letters of complaint or holding up signs of disapproval or expecting organs of the state to do the right thing..
If you don't believe the #USA is #fascist yet...
The administration has been illegally #impounding #funds allocated by #Congress since inauguration day. They keep adding to the list. This is a violation of black-letter law, and also a violation of the US Constitution's separation of powers. #Courts have issued multiple orders directing the administration to resume disbursing those funds as allocated, and are essentially ignoring those orders.
The administration is violating - outright abrogating - lawful contracts it has signed to pay for various services. They are refusing to continue abiding by these contracts. They are refusing to make contractually obligated payments without following any of the procedures in these contracts for cancelling those services. Courts have issued multiple orders to rectify this too. The administration has ignored those orders.
The administration is refusing to make payments for services *already rendered*. Illegal.
