In the meantime while everyone is looking at Elon Donald is signing executive orders to

  • Grant top secret security clearances to White House staff without going through traditional vetting procedures.
  • Open the Alaska wilderness to more oil and gas drilling.
  • Eliminate environmental justice programs across the government, which are aimed at protecting poor communities from excess pollution.
  • Move to end birthright citizenship, which is guaranteed by the 14th Amendment, for the children of undocumented immigrants.
  • Declare migrant crossings along the U.S.-Mexico border to be a national emergency
  • Remove protections for transgender people in federal prisons.
  • Ensure that states carrying out the death penalty have a “sufficient supply” of lethal injection drugs.

Donate to ACLU if you can. Their legal fees are going to be massive for the next 4 years.
