A coalition of over 280 organizations has announced what it says is a multimillion-dollar legal initiative to challenge policies from the incoming Trump administration. The coalition, "Democracy 2025,” includes legal, advocacy, and policy groups to "disrupt far-right attacks on the American people," according to its website.

According to a press release by the coalition, Democracy 2025 is spearheaded by Democracy Forward, a legal advocacy organization to promote "transparent and accountable governance.” The coalition says more than 800 individuals are involved, including "litigators, strategists, advocates, academics, policy experts, and faith leaders."

The coalition said it will use its litigation fund to "ensure swift and effective responses to any executive actions deemed harmful or unlawful."

2. Huge amounts of money will be spent in fighting Trump.

And they will most likely lose.

8. Sadly true.

SCOTUS ignored the text of the Constitution and allowed a known insurrectionist to run for office; then granted that traitor immunity out of "whole cloth". Maga has infested all levels of our government.

It's impossible for me to believe the courts will be of any help.

9. SCOTUS makes it up as they go.

The goal is to install a white male Christian dictatorship.
They have succeeded in their goal.

10. Not feelin' it. Sounds weak. Too many "deemers" and too few hard evidence investigators and trial prosecutors.

Nevertheless the resistance has to have all the fronts it can get, even if some of it looks to be treadmills.
Good luck getting evidence and winning cases that get endlessly appealed.

11. The ACLU and others won many court battles with the idiot in his first term. I refuse to go doom and gloom!

13. Okay. Thanks, I needed the cold water on this. I heard Lawrence about the ACLU. I'll join you.

[PortTack]

14. That a way! All hands on deck

[Joe_Gadway]

16. Go ACLU

I agree.
I am making a recurring donation to the ACLU.
It is great when they win cases, but even if they just slow the fascist down that is a good accomplishment.

We’ve got to get the word out about it.
