So the question of the day regarding the protests planned in the United States is how will they be covered by the media? My guess is that you will not see this as a top story in the news. Ignored by the mainstream media.

A bit of a personal dive into what those big numbers really mean to a lot of people in the United States and to you when they talk about cutting Social Security, Medicare, and Medicaid. My latest. Hope you'll check it out and subscribe.
This discussion about cutting Social Security, Medicare, and Medicaid is all theoretical and full of big numbers. The impact for average Americans will be unreal even if you personally aren't drawing from those programs now. I tried to dive deeper in my latest: open.substack.com/pub/fpwellma...
You are about to get screwed
Cutting Social Security, Medicare, and Medicaid is much worse than you realize

This 100 times over. The lottery indeed. For a range of reasons we have neighbors who do never and can never threaten us and we have enough shared interests that we mostly get along great. Basically no power has ever had anything like that. It takes a lot of fuck to fuck things up like this.
The US won the geopolitical lottery having Canada and Mexico as neighbors. This kind of offensive nonsense is doing so much damage, not just to America's standing in the world, but to our security.
Trump: "When you take away that artificial line that looks like it was done by a ruler ... you look at that beautiful formation of Canada and the US, there is no place anywhere in the world that looks like that. And then if you add Greenland, that's pretty good."
