This is a monumental post by Marcy Wheeler with an incredible list of focal topics to fight the attempted destruction of our country. Please go to the original post for the full content.

At the beginning of 2026, I did a post piggybacking on what had succeed against Trump last year, laying out ways to use Trump's own conspiracism and grievance against him. That post linked an assessment of our success in five ways fighting fascism, and also explained why I think we need to fight Trump using his own tools against him.

This page repeats the same categories from that post, and fleshes out developments that accord with my original framework.

Treat Epstein as the base layer

Focus on the Broligarchs and AI

Emphasize Trump’s loser stench

Visualize Trump's corruption


Brand Trump as the criminal he is

Hold Stephen Miller accountable for his failures

Visualize how Stephen Miller took money for cancer research and veterans care to pay for a goon army snatching grandmothers

Discredit Key Spokespeople

Use Trump's claimed opposition to antisemitism against him

Reclaim disinformation research

1. All political ideas, good ones, but

we need to get out and protest now.

My opinion is that we go to Indivisible, Join, or donate to them.
