Help is not coming, Epstein is a distraction: if MAGA can accept dead kids why do you think they’d balk at raped kids? While dem leaders focused on the Epstein files, Trump systematically destroyed democracy on step at a time. States need to act. Soft Secession NOW

The article argues that Americans shouldn’t just “wait for the next election”
Instead the piece calls for practical, legal, and systemic strategies that state governments and citizens can use to assert autonomy

Enlightening insight about what this illegal action is really about And no it’s not drugs, and why oust Maduro but keep his regime and NOT the popularly elected Edmundo Gonzalo/Maria Machado

It was never about fentanyl or drugs or freedom

Funny how “regime change” shows up right on time when Citgo’s on the table.

Wild concept, but if someone supports a pedo, maybe daycares aren’t the place for them.
This isn’t “cancel culture,” it’s called basic safeguarding.

Former Special Counsel Jack Smith testifies how he had Trump in his cross-hairs and could prove beyond a reasonable doubt that he was responsible for the insurrection on January 6, 2021. Man things would have been so different if Garland didn’t slow walk this case. Ugh‼️‼️

My hat is off to DaWokeFarmer and the job he’s doing. He is uniquely qualified to irritate the piss out of these ICE hoods. I’m glad he’s on our side. Keep it up, my dear man. Everyone in my family got ICE whistles in their stockings this year, so we’re doing our part!

Affordable Care Act? Premiums up, help gone — and somehow MAGA voters are shocked after voting for the people who promised to gut it. This wasn’t an accident. This was the ballot.”

In a classified meeting with Congress, Hegseth and Rubio said,”the administration had no intelligence indicating that fentanyl was coming out of Venezuela, but rather that some of the boats were believed to be carrying cocaine.”
No drugs.

Been listing all day. Gotcha didn’t work for the Majority, as hard as they tried. Jack Smith proved he is indeed a formidable public servant.

2025 Sucked
In 2026 : it’s time to lace up your most comfortable shoes, charge your phones, fact-check your uncle, and show up like democracy depends on because, it does. Our weapons are ballots, jokes, mutual aid, and the stubborn refusal to shut up. Oh and mockery
