RONALD REAGAN (1988): We should be aware of the demagogues who are ready to declare a trade war against our friends, weakening our economy, our national security, and the entire free world—all while cynically waving the American flag.

Jasmine Crockett: "The problem is that Americans thought it was okay to take a full fledged criminal and make him the President of the US and then they want to act aghast when he does criminal things. Let me tell you, we have a thug in charge of the US and if we don't wake up we may not have a US"

Cannot stop thinking about how Octavia Butler wrote a book in 1993 about climate change. It opens with deadly fires in LA in 2025. In the story, a fascist President has just won office with the campaign slogan "Make America Great Again."
She was a modern day Nostradamus. If only we'd listened.

When you look at the world events taking place you do get the feel that all it will take is one provocation and we will have a world conflict on our hands.

And you’re a liar if you say you wouldn’t do the same.

We thought the chains of societal control would be forced upon us.
Instead we have willingly took them and embraced them.

Is it possible that the billionaires have overplayed their hand?
Has their greed overshot their ability to keep the masses controlled by social media?
They used to have to recruit politicians to do their bidding.
Now they just run for office themselves and raid the national coffers firsthand.

Nate Silver is the smart guy that wants to be liked by the “Alpha” crowd.

I hate that we as a citizenry hand over the levers of power of our nation to the wealthy, repeatedly.
Trump, Musk and RFK are going to use and abuse our most sacred institutions for their own amusement while dismantling the programs that benefit millions and millions of needy Americans.

While I love and follow a lot of progressive talking heads I must admit that it’s time for a change or at least an opening up of the stage to new voices.
Red state Dem voices are often overlooked by talking heads from the east & west coast.
If we are to expand the map it has to start in the Midwest.
