What does “Trump regime collaborator” mean?
A “Trump regime collaborator” is a person, corporation, or institution that materially enables anti-democratic behavior—through money, platforms, contracts, legal cover, or legitimizing appearances—especially when they have the power to resist and choose not to.
So, let’s get something straight: regimes don’t run on one loud figurehead (Trumphole). They run on a support class. The people who normalize. The people who benefit. The people who smile for the camera and pretend the sirens in the background are just “ambience.”
And if that sentence makes certain wealthy executives and influence-merchants feel itchy? Good. That’s your conscience trying to reconnect to the network. But don’t worry, when you’re dragged in front of a military tribunal, they’ll scratch that itch for you.
The Collaborator Class is Not “Neutral”
A collaborator doesn’t have to wear a uniform. Most don’t.
They show up in the VIP photos.
They bankroll the narrative.
They provide the platforms, the money pipelines, the legal shields, the PR perfume, the “just business” excuses.
And yes—this is exactly how societies slide: not in one dramatic leap, but in a thousand elegant little concessions.
“But I didn’t do anything…”
Yeah, asshole. That’s the problem.
When a government crosses into open lawlessness, the absence of resistance from powerful institutions and individuals the public looks up to, becomes participation and endorsement. Not always criminal. Not always prosecutable. But absolutely historical.
History is a brutal accountant. It doesn’t care about your brand mission statement. It cares about your behavior when it mattered. And it sure as hell remembers who you stood with when American citizens were being gunned down in the streets.
Some of you we admired; some of you we respected. But when you stand with a criminal dictator, you go down with him.
(And don’t worry. We may not be able to prosecute you under current laws, but we can damned well pass new ones that allow us to confiscate your wealth, your corporations, biotechs, drug companies, oil companies, insurance companies, Fox News, etc., and use your money to fund child care, Medicare for all, education, Social Security, and pay off the national debt.)
Problem solved.
And here’s the thing. When the majority is back in power and Trump’s thugs are rotting in prison, your money won’t protect you.
The Jews didn’t stop chasing the Nazis after WWII just because they took their money and ran. The French didn’t stop prosecuting collaborators just because they didn’t break a specific law. When you benefit from brutality, you get pay-back with change.
Hope you look good in orange!
A Real-World Example of “Legitimacy Laundering”
When the White House hosts glamorous cultural events while the country is boiling, it isn’t just “a party.” It’s a strategy: legitimacy laundering—wrapping corruption and power in velvet so people forget to notice the stomp of Totalitarian boots.
And while I’m not here to litigate every attendee list, credible reporting shows that a White House screening of an Amazon (Jeff Bezos bending the knee) and MGM (who are the decision-makers at MGM?) documentary about Melania Trump (Jeffrey Epstein’s former girlfriend), drew high-profile guests including Apple CEO Tim Cook and Tony Robbins, among others. (EW.com)
That contrast isn’t just “optics.” It’s the point.
A regime wants the wealthy and famous smiling in the frame because it tells the public: Relax. The important people aren’t worried.
Another Minneapolis murder by Trump “brown shirts”
At the same time Cook and Robbins were thumbing their noses at the public, Minneapolis saw mass protest activity and violent abuse by federal agents. Not surprisingly, a Veterans Administration ICU nurse, Alex Pretti, was shot 10 times in the back as he lay pinned to the ground by ICE agents because he had the audacity to help a woman up from the pavement after an ICE goon shoved her there. (Guess he would have been nice and safe at the documentary screening.)
If you don’t believe me, watch any of the multiple videos from several angles of his murder. This is what a guy who dedicated his life to helping wounded veterans got in return. (Hacker News) And what are Bezos, Cook, and Robbins getting in return for their collaboration?
Do you think you’ll be safe when ICE get’s to your community?
Right now ICE is terrorizing Democrat states. But a lot of people here voted for Trump. I know a few of them. Most of them just wanted secure borders and cheaper prices. But they didn’t vote for violent thugs gunning down citizens in their streets.
But here’s the thing. Did ICE ask Pretti how he voted before they pinned him to the ground and shot him? Doubt it. Ten bullets in the back.
They didn’t give a damn about who Renee Good was either. Just another soccer mom coming home from dropping off her kids at school. Three bullets to the face.
Who’s next? Your mom? Your sister? Your dad? Your spouse? Your child? ICE doesn’t ask. They just draw, shoot, then hide.
The French Revolution Lesson (without the Guillotine)
The Ancien Régime didn’t fall because poor people suddenly got cranky. It fell because an elite class behaved like consequences were for other people.
Lavish parties. Closed circles. Open contempt for the public. A belief that wealth equals immunity.
Sound familiar?
Here’s the modern version: the collaborator class thinks the public is a streaming subscription—annoying, but ignorable. Cancelable, even.
They’re wrong.
The NWP Rule: No Vigilantes. All Receipts.
If you want accountability that lasts, you do it the way democracies do it (when they remember how): document, expose, organize, vote, litigate, investigate, prosecute. And since Trump and his insanely rich minions don’t care about the law, when we prosecute them, we shouldn’t be worrying about the “letter of the law”.
We’ve got the public records that will make people in power sweat through their expensive shirts.
When Trump’s Gestapo openly shoots people and then lies about it, even when the Internet is flooded with blatant evidence that they’re lying, they want you frightened and looking over your shoulder for who’s coming for you.
Instead, they should be looking over their shoulder because the American public is coming for them!
Because the most terrifying words to an enabler aren’t “we’ll find you.” That’s a done deal.
They’re: “Here’s the paper trail.”
The US Government has never been worried about accountability
The Democrats in office right now are completely worthless. They were simply put in office by a different group of billionaires and powerful corporations.
They don’t represent the majority. If they did, they would BE the majority party. Why are they sitting in their comfortable chairs with their thumbs up their ass arguing with the Republicans who are openly supporting Trump?
They should be out in the streets, at the front of every protest. They should be filing lawsuits, building coalitions.
They should be protecting the Epstein survivors and encouraging them to release a list of their victimizers.
How long has it been since Donald Trump signed a law to release the Epstein files within 30 days, and then calmly ignored it. He doesn’t give a shit about the law. He actually thinks he has immunity because a few corrupt Supreme Court judges told him he did. We increase the judges to 13 and suddenly, no more immunity!
Additionally, a democratic government doesn’t work when most of the representatives (Republicans) refuse to do anything but whatever the dictator tells them to do (just like China and Russia). So, stop acting like democratic “norms” should be obeyed.
Receipt Vault
There should be a website with a database where all the evidence is being collected and stored with multiple secret, secure backups so when it’s time to drop the hammer, we’ve got the anvil.
Don’t expect the CIA or any other “American intelligence” organization to help. In 1962, the South African government couldn’t find Nelson Mandela. That is, until the CIA tipped them off. Nelson Mandela, the leader of the African protestors trying to take back their country from the ruling White elite, spent the next 27 years in custody.
The intelligence agencies aren’t there to support democracy; they are there to keep the current regime in power. And that’s Trump and his murderous thugs.
And the military has already broken the law in support of Trump. If he orders them into the streets to “put down the protestors,” don’t believe for a second they won’t do it. What do you think Kent State was?
Call To Action
A lot of angry American’s want to know what they can do to tear down the Trump regime and their wealthy collaborators besides just protest and help their neighbors.
Here’s a list with some real teeth in it:
Build the Collaborator Ledger
The “List of Shame,” needs to be:
- Sourced
- Correctable
- Focused on actions
- Legally boring (which is how you win)
What qualifies someone for the Ledger?
Pick observable behaviors, like:
- Funding: major donations, bundling, PAC ties (public records).
- Platforming: algorithm boosts, moderation carve-outs, special access.
- Contracts: sweetheart deals (these are Musk’s bread and butter), emergency procurement, “private partnerships.”
- Legitimizing appearances: high-profile attendance that signals approval while abuses escalate.
- Enabling silence: executives who know and refuse to act when their action would matter.
The entry format (simple and powerful)
For each person or institution:
- Name / Role
- What they did (one sentence)
- Why it matters (one sentence)
- Sources (links + screenshots archived, video)
- Date added
- Update log (corrections, new facts, reversals)
That last part—the update log—is your armor. If you’re going to call people out, you keep your own house clean.

Scott Galloway had an impressive suggestion. The only thing that matters to the rich is staying rich and getting richer. Bust their wallet. Just cut your budget by 10 percent and stuff the money in a jar.
- Cut back on using Amazon
- Cancel one cable network
- Don’t shop at Target or Walmart or at least cut back
- Cancel an AI.
- Don’t buy groceries at Cub Foods. There are plenty of local alternatives if you look.
- Support the people online that are fighting the good fight. Listen and learn.

The Line Everyone Pretends Not to See
A government doesn’t get to act like laws are optional. A country doesn’t stay free by hoping powerful people will “self-correct.” And nobody gets a lifetime moral exemption because they built an app, delivered packages fast, or sells motivation in a microphone.
If you stand next to authoritarian power and grin, you’re not “above politics.”
You’re inside politics.
And the public is done being gaslit into silence.
What you can do this week (No Wimps Army “Wolverines” edition)
Shoutout to the organizers, reporters, legal advocates, and everyday people showing up in bitter weather with nothing but courage and a phone battery. You’re doing the work that keeps the lights on.
Wolverines — here’s the mission:
- Start a Collaborator Ledger page on NWP with the entry format above.
- Add five entries based only on verifiable, linkable public records.
- Share the Ledger with a simple line: “Receipts only. Corrections welcome. Silence is collaboration.”
That’s how you build something that can’t be waved away as “just vibes.”
Supporting the ordinary people fighting for you (Resources):
Where to invest your money you saved from corporate coffers or invest your time, so you don’t have to answer awkward questions from your children like, “What did you do to stop the bad people?”:
1) Legal orgs actually fighting in court
Civil liberties + constitutional “heavy hitters”
- ACLU (American Civil Liberties Union) — One of the biggest litigation engines in the country; they’re in court constantly on voting rules, speech, due process, immigration, reproductive care, etc. Example: ACLU press releases detail wins/blocks against parts of Trump-era voting orders and other actions.
- Public Citizen (Litigation Group) — Runs a public case list and has been suing the Trump administration repeatedly (their own reporting says “30 times since the inauguration”).
- Protect Democracy — A “rule of law / democracy protection” legal shop; they run active litigation challenging executive overreach and related governance issues.
Democracy + voting rights litigation
- Campaign Legal Center (CLC) — Election law specialists; they track what the administration can/can’t legally do and bring/assist cases.
- League of Women Voters (LWV) — Not just education: LWV explicitly does litigation and has filed major suits (including challenges to federal data-consolidation / voter-roll purge efforts).
- Fair Elections Center — Voting rights litigation + election protection; involved in the LWV data-consolidation case.
- Brennan Center for Justice — Less “join a march,” more “legal research + policy + court-facing work”; they track and analyze election litigation and governance risks.
Government accountability, FOIA, ethics, corruption (the “paper-cut” assassins)
- CREW (Citizens for Responsibility and Ethics in Washington) — Pure accountability litigation; they also appear as counsel in major democracy/privacy cases.
- American Oversight — FOIA + records preservation + litigation designed to force transparency; they explicitly describe filing FOIA requests and lawsuits tied to Trump administration actions.
- Democracy Forward — Big litigation shop that’s involved in high-impact democracy/oversight cases; also appears as counsel in the LWV v. DHS suit per EPIC’s case page.
Civil rights & equal protection litigators
- NAACP Legal Defense Fund (LDF) — Impact litigation; for example, LDF partnered with Lambda Legal on a federal challenge to anti-equity executive orders. And if you’re White and wondering why you should support the NAACP? Any victory they win for People of Color is a victory for everyone’s freedom. Another punch to the regime’s gut.
- Lawyers’ Committee for Civil Rights Under Law — Voting rights + civil rights enforcement via litigation and related legal actions.
- MALDEF (Mexican American Legal Defense and Educational Fund) — Civil rights and immigrants’ rights litigation; actively intervening/engaged in suits responding to DOJ actions. (If you have to ask, when Trump’s goons are done terrorizing immigrants, they’ll be coming after you. I know, I live in Minneapolis.)
Issue-area legal armies (immigration, environment, bodily autonomy, LGBTQ rights)
- National Immigration Law Center (NILC) — Immigrants’ rights litigation and policy; maintains litigation/casework around federal actions.
- National Immigrant Justice Center (NIJC) — Litigation + direct legal services; tracks active legal fights and cases.
- Earthjustice — Environmental litigation powerhouse; they maintain an “our lawsuits” posture against federal actions.
- Lambda Legal — LGBTQ+ civil rights litigation; they filed suits challenging specific Trump administration policies (e.g., passport policy).
- Center for Reproductive Rights — Litigation + FOIA; they list active suits against Trump administration decisions and enforcement changes.
2) National organizing networks (move people, build pressure)
These are the “distributed nervous system” groups — local chapters + action toolkits + rapid response.
- Indivisible — Nationwide local groups in all 50 states; they explicitly organize locally to apply constituent pressure and mobilize people.
- For those of us who want local Minnesota flavor: Indivisible Twin Cities exists as a local chapter/site.
- Common Cause — Nonpartisan democracy reform + grassroots power; active across the country and constantly running actions.
- League of Women Voters — Yes, also organizing; they explicitly operate grassroots leagues across all 50 states and do advocacy + litigation + organizing.
- MoveOn — Mass email/petition and campaign mobilization; runs active campaigns aimed at pressuring decision-makers.
- Swing Left — Election-focused volunteer mobilization (field ops, phone banks, canvassing, local groups).
FAQ
Is this calling for violence or revenge?
No. This is calling for lawful accountability and public documentation.
Is it fair to criticize people for showing up at events?
Attendance alone isn’t a crime. But in moments of democratic rupture, high-profile presence can function as endorsement. The Ledger should focus on patterns and documented actions.
How do we avoid getting sued?
Stick to verifiable facts, label opinions as opinions, cite sources, correct fast, and avoid accusing anyone of specific crimes unless credible evidence and reporting supports it.
FAIR WARNING: Your government is spying on you. The Tech Bros are in Trump’s pocket. You better believe they are on his side and giving him whatever intelligence he wants on you. Palantir is the ultimate spy agency supporting the Trump regime. Do what you can for your country but remember, it’s not your country anymore. It’s theirs until we take it back…
