this is why i follow DEFIANCE religiously! TY MILES! Yes, elections must be the focus. Meanwhile, i've been trying to spread your article about the problems with the 25th amendment anytime I see comments calling for it. You might specifically reach out to DR BANDY X LEE, one of the psychs who coordinated the first report from all the psych pros diagnosing drümpf's mental illness. She's got a big following and is making a LOUD push for the 25th. maybe you should have her on! 🤷🏻‍♀️🙏🏻‼️

🧚🏽‍♂️LINK FAIRY EDIT for your convenience, Dr Lee's article on the 25th: https://bandyxlee.substack.com/p/the-25th-amendment-should-have-been?r=60kbqc&utm_medium=ios&shareImageVariant=overlay

I like the way you think Miles: “defy the destruction of our democracy!”

Miles, Donald Trump has frontal lobe dementia, behavioral variant. It is as clear as day and I believe that we need to put all hands on deck informing the American public and everyone in Congress. It is not a political issue....it's a functional health issue, one that puts the entire world in danger. He needs to be removed from office. To my way of thinking, we need to educate people and especially, educate Republicans that they are supporting a man who is incapable of performing any kind of work that requires decision making. Please help educate ... Barbara Hawkins, retired gerontologist

Donald Trump has been a useful idiot to Putin, Netanyahu and many others over the years. He didn’t have dementia then but does now. He is a clear and present danger but there isn’t any body to stop him! They are complicit and in for the long haul, hoping to retain power.

Elections must be the focus. We must take over House and Senate in November and everywhere there is an election.

Yes we are defiant together against the Trump Regime - this entire enabler group of do-nothings and/or asskissers! Let’s also hold to account the do-nothing and no leadership democrats.

I just joined because of the respect I have for you. You’re standing up to this tyrant. How I wish the GOP senators would grow some balls.

Mine from 2016. Despised that low life then, and sure as shit despise him now.

Also tomorrow.

Can we induce any Republicans to retire early? Any jobs or promises not to press charges? If we can get them to leave early we get the House and maybe the Senate? Now!

Thank you Miles. My subscription to Defiance.org is literally the best money I have ever spent. I mention you and this movement every chance I get on social media to try and bring more people here. I worked polls in the midterms in 2022. I am working the polls at the primaries this year and hopefully these midterms. I will do all I can to do my part to make sure these elections are free and fair. Thank you for the hard work you do, and putting yourself out there.

All of your live events interfere with my work schedule (I’m a psychotherapist, which is a pretty badly needed profession right now), but I appreciate being able to read your Substack newsletters. I am grateful for the work you do. I understand his pathology and know we will never be able to sigh with relief and go on with life as usual while he occupies the White House. This is a new and nihilistic ball game.

Reminding me of a favorite expression I first heard back in my Hippie days -

If you aren't part of the solution, you are part of the problem.

We each need to find ALL the ways best suited to us individually to be part of the solution and DO IT!

How do you plan on doing that, I suggest a Crew of bouncer's and several pairs of cuff's flex or otherwise. The only way I've played this out in my head is to physically take him and the rest.
