Honestly, the constitutional crisis happened when an insurrectionist, an election denier was not held accountable and then allowed to run for office again. America will need to have a national and global reckoning. They have not protected their democracy and now we all pay that price.

Yes, exactly!!! There were panels out there discussing it on news and independent media, but the denial of it by the Trump Campaign was incessant. My son visited Missouri. He told me that the Americans he spoke to at an event had no idea DJT was threatening to annex Canada. They were shocked. :(

The book banning is a problem, for sure. Ira Wells wrote a book called On Book Banning. SO GOOD. Book Banning is a symptom of the larger problem. I had heard that the education system is the US was a problem. DJT scrubbing history is a serious threat too: very 1984 Orwellian. :(

2/2 People had access to the Project 2025 documents but there was a continual denial in the Trump Campaign about it.Also that document is massive, most won't take the time to read through it.

Yes! There is a trilogy of books I am reading called: Binding Chaos by Heather Marsh. They are excellent reads. I honestly believe that if folks have access to accurate and truthful info, they could and would make better decisions. The Echo Machine by David Packman is also excellent.

Yes. It's blatant now. The information bubbles are so concerning. Disinformation is rampant. When DJT denied knowing about Project 2025, I knew he was lying so I read through it.

Absolutely, none of you can give up. Independent media, helping people get out of their information bubbles is a must. They're still Americans who can't see what is happening.
