This has nothing to do with ā€œfighting crime,ā€ Senator. Trump is trying to normalize troops in our streets, checkpoints in our cities. And when he feels himself losing next November, he’ll grab the Insurrection Act and declare martial law. These fools take us for fools.

Disgusting. As I’ve said many times before the media is complicit in normalising everything outrageous to do with the present regime and that is a huge problem for America. Unbiased news reading went long ago, paying to watch idiots expressing their small minded opinions is what it’s about now.

Corporate media is all Trump, All the Time. That is by design. Their goal is to help Trump suck up all the oxygen. That is why need independent media now more than ever. My new article on what corporate media ignored this week that was great for Dems deanobeidallah.substack.com/p/great-news...

Trump’s "state capitalism" has nothing whatever to do with public ownership, socialism, helping the working class, or improving national security. There is no real industrial policy. It’s all about centralizing ever more control over America in the Oval Office.

That’s unacceptable and very wrong. Terrible.

Trump lashed out after an Utah judge ordered state lawmakers to redraw the congressional map, calling the ruling ā€œabsolutely unconstitutional.ā€ But the decision is firmly rooted in Utah’s democratic process.

Everyone watches Trump’s circus. Few see the man behind the curtain: Stephen Miller, the architect of America’s authoritarian future.šŸ‘‡ www.jackhopkinsnow.com

ā€œThe recent change in the adult and children’s immunization schedule threaten the lives of the youngest Americans and pregnant people.ā€ This should be one of the biggest scandals in America right now. And every Democrat should be loudly calling for RFK Jr’s resignation

We’re going to go on a rant for a minute, and yes we’re bringing some history with us. Back in 1755, Benjamin Franklin wrote words that still echo today: ā€œThose who would give up essential Liberty, to purchase a little temporary Safety, deserve neither Liberty nor Safety.ā€

According to federal data, 13 of the top 20 cities in homicide rates have Republican governors. None of those cities are Chicago. 8 of the top 10 states in homicide rates are led by Republicans. None of those states are Illinois. And yet Trump is sending troops here.

Post from Donald Trump on Truth Social: A really deadly weekend in Chicago. 6 dead, 27 hurt in crime sprees all over the city. Panic stricken Governor Pritzker says that crime is under control, when in fact it is just the opposite. He is an incompetent governor who should call me for help. Mayor Johnson is no better. Make Chicago great again!

The story of the human race is a story of refusing to accept violence as ordinary and normal. But Donald Trump celebrates and uses violence - and the threat of violence - everyday. Our nation under him is bathed in violence. We are heading backwards.
