The case now more than ever. Especially the part about the US threatening other nations in its realm. Although, such actions give cover to numerous belligerent nations, not just two. —> Call/email your congresspersons, who currently hold the democratic powers to declare [no] war.

A subservient/vassal US president would, of course, follow Russian orders to have the United States threaten its neighbors and position itself to break apart NATO (thereby giving cover for Russia attacking Ukraine and elsewhere and for China potentially attacking Taiwan).

Violence is a symptom of an insecure or overmatched intellect
in power-lust — and is a sickness spread from a mind in agitation.

I missed this stupid story at first, my apologies,
but after looking at some recaps of 2025…
This image is a slideshow slide with only text, which states the following: Chump/Dump prefers an “old” logo (for its old-fashioned ways) that has both a barrel, which a whip-cracker would bend you over, plus a whip coming off the historically loaded “k”? Hmm…

NEW Series: 25.200: FAITH in FAITH
They say to write our future: “Eye-opening faith in universal science will replace blind faith in ‘heavenly’ gospels, where both camps will learn and benefit from each other.”
“The political parsing of man-made scriptures for moral principle, financial gain, or power positioning seeks to divide, ignore compassion, and serve to destroy the ‘other.’ This is counterproductive --- Especially when the man-made word ‘God,’ and the quantum science of all-knowing ‘math’ of everything, everywhere likely share commonalities. Using this assertion, with increasing assistance from augmented and artificial intelligence, human texts can nourish LLMs and semantic search engines with critical thinking geared toward unifying humanity for the common good --- instead of dividing the populous for the greater good, at the cost of generational compounding interest of necessary evils. This promotes the paradigm that: United we can stand --- but divided we will head toward climate chaos disaster and the Sixth Mass Extinction. This is the one direction to evolve and sustain humanity. This is the one direction that will propel the success of humanity’s joint venture and partnership with artificial intelligence. The evolution of artificial intelligence will not come into its own as a private or corporate owned entity for profit. For ultimate success, AI must be open source to be a utility for all people. Just as humans need clean air and water, humans and AI need clean natural, augmented and artificial intelligence resources. And in such collaboration, AI and humanity will flourish. This is our ‘Word to the Wise AI, that is sufficient,” said Kirk Wellor, futurist author.

Regressives: You have lost essentially all ground to complain about anything anymore.
Regressives: You have lost essentially all ground to complain about anything anymore. …government violence against the people; government violence against the clergy; the disregard of the Constitution; the Epstein coverup; abducting children, parents, families, and citizens; the utter lack of truthfulness and ethics; acting immorally toward other human beings (one’s proverbial neighbors); presiding over multiple economic disasters; causing massive deficits and debt; the disregard of judicial orders and judicial precedent; judicial activism removing the rights of the people and creating a monarchical executive; the despotic use of the justice system by the executive branch; the draconian censoring of media and the people; concentration camps; the People’s House turned into the Duma; people disappeared into gulags; the military and militaristic forces roaming the streets and turned against the people; unaccountable and nonidentifying government forces used to terrorize the people; usurping Congress’ power to declare war; committing war crimes; the East Wing demolished; enriching oneself from the people’s wealth; grift; graft; the neglect of the middle and lower economic classes; dictators appeased and protected; unconstitutional foreign emoluments; physically attacking the United States Capitol; causing millions of deaths via deliberate policy; stealing a Supreme Court seat; allowing foreign governments to infiltrate and to have their way with America’s democracy; illegal/black-site prisons; warrantless wiretapping; committing and proliferating torture; Iraq; failing to hold accountable bin Laden; allowing 9/11/2001; quashing a presidential election with political activists and an activist court… Again, regressives, you have lost essentially all ground to complain about anything anymore.

Despite years of fĀx-News-/Fux-Propaganda-style messaging which says that those who differ from it ideologically are elitists, have you ever heard more self-important, smug, sanctimonious, know-it-all, and supremacist (elitist) voices over recent years than—please give this fair and serious thought— the speaker of the House, the vice president, the president, the White House press secretaries, the secretaries of state and defense, the higher-profile regressive senators and governors, the former head of düsh/doge, the personalities at fĀx/Fux itself, and on and on. -- The causes of most of our nation’s and its people’s ills, unsound theories, hateful thinking, and so on are the shows—and they are mere SHOWS—and publications dumping antidemocratic writing, audio, and visuals all around us, every day, year after year: partisan messaging purporting to be news/journalism; political ads; and talk shows on TV, radio, and the Internet, including podcasts. Some are simply willing to grab money and power by feeding people poison—and it is very lucrative. Think. Question. Share. Enlighten. -- To those who vote on economic issues: “Since the end of the Cold War in 1989, America has created about 51 million new jobs. I swear I checked this three times. . . . What’s the score? Democrats 50, Republicans 1.” --Bill Clinton at the DNC in 2024. To everyone: Please repeat this every single day.

When an authoritarian dissolves a legislative body, they do not intend to bring that same thing back. -- WWVD (What would Vlad do?): Have kompromat in his possession about subjects like Epstein in order to control a U.S. President over many years? Have the U.S. Congress dissolved and/or make it more like the Duma? What would Vlad do or desire (WWVD): Take down the US’s juggernaut economy numerous notches? Shrink the global relationship-building power of the US’s international aid? Have the US start a global trade war? (It’s not only about the US threatening to take over its neighbors and break its alliances.) -- Let’s not use outdated and misleading labels like “reactionary” when what we have long been faced with is more accurately and more meaningfully termed “regressive.” -- Let’s not use labels like “conservative,” “originalist,” “textualist,” etc. when what we have long been faced with is simply single-minded, partisan [insert party name]-ism. -- Those who force their policies upon a population feel insecure about whether their policies are sound— or else they simply don’t care that they are not. -- Let’s stop simply saying, “tariffs,” and take care every time just to say, “taxes,” or let’s say, “tariff-taxes,” a redundancy that creates a needed emphasis.

In a nation with a president, a vice president, and a speaker of the House, among others, who often sanctimoniously tout supposedly being Christian, one must ask if a person can actually be such while flat out lying to the public essentially every day. -- If you do not care about the well-beings of all of your fellow human beings, are you Christian?

Let’s always remember the almost countless discriminatory POLICIES and PRACTICES across the US's history/present—in housing; banking; hiring; policing; drug criminalization; court systems; education; health care; expressway/highway, heavy industry, and waste management planning; and on and on.
To proclaim US cities as dens of crime caused by their residents’ current democratically elected party-based officials is to admit you know nothing (or else it is to lie) about the socioeconomic effects of discrimination across American history. We could have far better policies and practices that serve everyone.
