Boycott US

Overview:

The community dedicated to boycotting the US until they stop fascism, restore full democracy and start following international law.

Americans have a moral obligation to resist Donald Trump and project 2025 at every turn.

America is a flawed democracy currently being ruled by oligarchs. Stop the backslide! Dont let America become the next Hungary.

America needs to get rid of citizen's united and implement independent district drawing and the single transferable vote so they don't end up having people stay home in life-changing elections because they cannot vote for their favourite candidate.

Shares in Franco-British satellite operator Eutelsat (ETL.PA), opens new tab soared as much as 650% during the week ending March 7, due to speculation the company could replace Starlink in providing internet access to Ukraine. The shares pulled back on Friday to end the week up around 380%.

One analysis of the current Trump regime is that its very unpredictability is a way of demonstrating its power.

But if someone could predict the next moronic thing the Trump regime would do, they could make an absolute killing on the markets.

Which makes me wonder if someone in the regime is making a killing on the markets...

I've already thought if Trump's Tariffs On-Off Bullshit is for him to profit through insider trading

IIRC during his first administration, he at least felt the need put his shares in The Trump Organization into a trust run by his kids. But I don't think he's even bothered pretending to divest (or follow any other conflict-of-interest procedures) this time around, has he?

I would love for Ford to demand trump thank Canada for the electricity or he turns it off. (Not really but a man can dream, right?)

The Republicans are suddenly very concerned about demanding the world thank it for its self-centred meddling.

They have to know what the reaction is going to be. This has to be a pretense for something.

It's the new catchphrase. At least they've moved on from 'they're eating the cats...' Etc.
