Both of the co-founders of Turning Point USA died from things that were preventable, but which they mocked and urged this nation to ignore. Bill Montgomery was killed in 2020 by COVID and Charlie Kirk was killed in 2025 by gun violence.

Does anyone else worry about the shrinking middle class? The rising corporate profits that somehow never get shared with the employees who make it happen?

You know what feels like a crime against humanity? That Elon Musk is about to be a trillionaire and there are people in America that have to create a gofundme page to help them pay for cancer treatment, people in America who are hungry, homeless.

“Corruption, in the Republican lexicon, meant pursuing self interest, rather than the public good, accumulating power at popular expense, manipulating the people for private gain. Power unchecked.-Illiberal America by Steven Hahn. Speaking of the revolutionary period-or maybe…Trump.

Evidently people are no longer concerned about subversive power- since the ringleader is in the White House.

Animal farm was supposed to be about communist Russia- but maybe a new interpretation could make links to the current administration…just saying.

And to think some troll on blue sky tried to claim that those Epstein files were “on the internet” and released already. That there was no investigation because all the brouhaha was just “conspiracy” theories gone wild. Sure guy, sure.

Just read the anxious generation.

And it looks like more to come from Epstein.

America for the richest- don’t they need more govt contracts, more tax cuts, I mean it’s simply not enough until the rest of us are left with nothing. Except the bill.

The result of hate and violent rhetoric being normalized- who here feels safe?

Hillary Clinton and Bill Clinton owe Monica Lewinsky an apology and compensation.

DEI like everything created by human beings is not always perfect, but I believe it’s important and will always be critical to try to make sure no one is left out, outcast, or alone. And don’t we want that for everyone?

In the aftermath of the Oklahoma bombing and the 9/11 attacks Americans came together to show in actions our core values: unity, equity, equality - everyone helped everyone. Diversity, equity, and inclusion was not just to help overcome a racist past, but to ensure that we intentionally avoid it.

Watching the Oklahoma bombing explains and links far right conspiracy theorists that link hyper gun ownership/gun right folks to anti-government mentality. While this happened in the 90’s it definitely helped set the stage for those rabid folks who eagerly elected the current administration.
April 28, 2025 at 10:06 PM
Our country was founded on principals of freedom and equality. So, why exactly are DEI programs anathema? I mean, doesn’t diversity, equity, and inclusion line up with those core values?

Corporate greed by health insurance companies, chain stores, and politicians is destroying the America I love.

How on earth did the greed and grift administration get elected? Hate and fear robbed otherwise decent people of compassion and decency. How can we get decency back?

In spite of today’s hands off protests, the Trump world still refuses to actively engage or attempt to understand what people are protesting blindly convinced that any news that challenges their belief system is a lie.

Feeling like we are on a path to WW3. Courtesy of the current administration. And who will be our allies?
