Summary
Donald Trump criticized federal judges who blocked his administration’s funding cuts, suggesting they should be “looked at.”
His comments followed a ruling that halted a $4 billion NIH budget cut targeting biomedical research. Scientists warned the cuts would cripple labs and cost jobs.
Trump also signed an order supporting Elon Musk’s plan to reduce the federal workforce, though courts have blocked several of Musk’s initiatives.
Musk defended Trump’s efforts, arguing the judiciary and bureaucracy undermine democracy, despite not being an elected official himself.
How, though? I’m not really sure what to do, even though I want to fight for my country.
You need to look local. Check local co-ops. They understand more community mindset and you might be able to meet people there.

Without knowing specific details I can’t make specific answers, but there are websites that try to organize local events. Not political, but you can use that as a jumping off point since everything is political even if people don’t want to admit it. Eventbrite.com has some local events get together for different areas. Usually anyone volunteering at local ‘clean the bay’ events would have better guidance.
My point is go do those things and ask people there. Community and organizing is how we will get through this. It’s tough and I’m just trying to talk to people that I know that are struggling and help them anyway I can.

I wish I had the answer. Short of staying with a group of like minded friends to help weather the storm.
And protecting those friends from the blatant gaslighting that’s coming.
