On day 1 of the 2nd term, Trump signed an executive order that asked for a report due 90 days in on additional actions on the southern border. It specifically asked them to write if they thought the Insurrection Act should be invoked.
They aren’t going to recommend invoking it. If you heard people concerned about April 20th, this was the report they were talking about
Keep the pressure up. They’re starting to feel the pushback. Join the nationwide protests tomorrow April 19th
It is not an eventuality, it is a possibility that he tries
Thinking that everything is 100% certain to happen is how we get ourselves too paralyzed to act. We can reduce the odds of many things from happening by showing up and building pressure
Join protests, boycotts, strikes, etc.
EDIT: or maybe I apparently have misunderstood how the word eventuality is supposed to be a synonymy of possibility. My bad on that one
Even if the probability is less than 100% it is a good idea to prepare while there’s still time to do so. Its not about paralysis, its about emergency preparedness and taking necessary precautions.
Such as?
Here are some examples that come to mind:
Basically the same sort of disaster preparedness you would have normally, except the last bullet point
That’s literally what “eventuality” means:
Oh hmm, maybe I had just heard people misuse it in the past? Had only heard it being used as a synonym for possibility in the context of “every eventuality” but other times meaning something definitive. Looking it up I see that it’s supposed to just always refer to possibility
I think people get confused because it sounds so similar to “eventually”—i.e., something bound to occur given enough time.
An eventuality, but not inevitably
Found these two, which seem to cloud the issue. These don’t say “possible”, the first even says “eventual”.
