    Are we now officially in a dictatorship?

    The MAGA crew call an awful lot of their fellow Americans “whiners”. Maybe they think we just can’t recognize Trump’s greatness? Well, the “whiners” seem to be growing in number, and it would appear MAGA is projecting. It would appear that MAGA is butting their heads up against a reality that...

    The Growing Thirst for Cruelty

    The Growing Thirst for Cruelty

    He appeals to the emotions of anger and fear, and people respond by echoing his love of cruelty. https://news.sky.com/story/donald-trump-celebrates-100-days-in-office-with-campaign-style-rally-13358441 “He played a video of migrants his administration claims are gang members arriving at a...

    They Came From….Somewhere

    Yeah, don’t know what to make of the whistleblower claims. Both Grusch and yes, Jake Barber. I am following it as a real world event. But I’m not convinced it’s not a PsyOp. Because of fantastical claims they make that common sense demands I have to doubt. But, it’s a lifelong interest of mine...

    Are we now officially in a dictatorship?

    I know I’ve said in the past, in trying to hone in more, to distill the essence of Trumpism, that one way may be to say Trump is the State. A quote from the just published Atlantic interview stands out. And why wouldn’t he think this? Isn’t his egomania expansive enough to believe he is the...

    Trump Dictatorship and All Things Politics

    Not sure if this has been posted yet. But, this is one very, very different kind of Attorney General we have at the moment! https://newrepublic.com/post/194481/karoline-leavitt-arrest-supreme-court-judges

    Trump Dictatorship and All Things Politics

    Nah. It looks to me like the American people are waking up. You, but of course, want them to remain sound asleep. What on Earth is wrong with you? I cannot honestly predict what will come. But, I can be hopeful for my nation. Why would you want to take that hope away from me? What….on Earth….is...

    Trump Dictatorship and All Things Politics

    This is a fun listen. This is why, in the long run, if we have to put 3/4 of the American people in the streets, if we need another million man walk on Washington, this monster is going to fail. When all is said and done, we will do ourselves proud again. The greater majority of the American...

    Trump Dictatorship and All Things Politics

    So much winning. And the tide is turning. It’s going to be a battle royal, but I believe, in the long run, Trumpism will be rejected. I believe we will reassert who we are as a people. We are not cruelty incarnate...

    Bernie’s Anti-oligarchy Tour/Anti-Trump Resistance

    Maybe we’ll have one of these moments. Thanks to groups like 50501. Seeing thousands of homemade signs, personal messages of resistence, is inspiring. Each person took the time to think “what do I want to say to authority?” Trump helped stir people’s darker angels. Maybe we the people will turn...

    Bernie’s Anti-oligarchy Tour/Anti-Trump Resistance

    So do I, hopefully. I’ve been watching Maddow in the evenings. She always starts off showing scenes from protests around the nation. Usually ends her show that way as well. Love reading all the signs, and feel encouraged watching. Like what I’m seeing in the polls as well. Has to have a...

    The Climate Change Thread

    I’m in New England, and it’s fairly easy to see a couple of effects rendered by climate change. The lobster industry is not as big, here in RI, as it is in Maine, but it’s declining in both states. In RI, lobsters can only be found in the very deepest waters of our bays, because that’s where the...

    Bernie’s Anti-oligarchy Tour/Anti-Trump Resistance
