As an outsider (I live in Belgium) it feels very weird and dystopian to see everything happening in American politics with Trump and Musk.

On one side, it’s very interesting and almost entertaining; on the other side, it’s scary. I can’t imagine what it must be like to live in the USA.

Americans, how do you cope? What’s your take on the situation?

    Where can I find info on the people fighting back. I have found some judges, but the workers and people like that is hard to find in mainstream media.

      Democracy Docket is a good source for court battles. They cover all kinds of court cases and the updates on them you hardly find in other media

      The other action is harder to find concentrated in one source, but there’s people on various social media that try to signal boost the limited media coverage of that stuff. For instance, Ariella Elm (@ariellaelm.bsky.social), various activism groups like Indivisible, the r/fednews and r/50501 subreddit, etc.
