It strikes me today that because of what is happening in Minnesota and other states, we may no longer be the "land of the free," but we are still the "home of the brave." Less brutality is demonstrated in an NFL football game than by ICE in Minneapolis, which is difficult to achieve these days.

I'm listening to the Trump lecture at Davos. He brings a new dimension to the term "The Ugly American" and this display of lies and bullying is truly an embarrassment. I have to turn it off; it's too humiliating...

Renee Nichol Good was an innocent person, mother of 3 with no animus towards anyone, gunned down by an ICE person just because he could. Now we're to ignore what our eyes see. George Orwell's "1984" declares this method a key part of the dystopian society. Believe what we tell you, not what you see.

In George Orwell's book "1984," a daily led 2 minutes of "Hatespeak" occurs during which all manner of lies and vicious speech is required of citizens, according to "Big Brother."

In the US, the "Hatespeak" is instead coming daily from White House's "Big Brother Is Watching You."

Sound familiar?

The Trump administration is demonstrating a targeted effort on harming/killing children by withdrawing pediatric cancer and other research funding and drawing parents away from immunizing their children. What a terrible level of cruelty. Today, funding for the American Academy of Pediatrics is gone.

Virginia Guiffre's family should be given a copy of the signed bill to release the Epstein files, framed preferably, in honour of her valiant efforts on behalf of Epstein's victims.

I am assuming, however, that the bill was indeed signed by Trump...

F. Scott Fitzgerald's "The Great Gatsby" regularly appears on top 10 banned or challenged booklists for misogyny, sexual language, profanity, negative portrayals of high society and the pursuit of wealth. Perhaps the host of the Mar-a-Lago Great Gatsby party should be banned or at least challenged.

First, US Navy ships in the Caribbean and then US Navy ships in the Pacific. Now HUGE ship heading from Europe to Caribbean. Trump wants to take over Panama Canal. Believe him the first time!
October 24, 2025 at 9:01 PM
I wonder why, instead of murdering suspects in boats in the Caribbean and now the Pacific, the Trump Administration doesn't follow the boats they suspect contain narcotics traffickers to learn their ultimate destination and capture more links in the opioid delivery system?

$230,000,000 TRUMP request for compensation for supposed damages !!!!!!

If DJT is aware that that much money is laying around for him to request, then the federal employees should be paid FIRST!!!! After all, It's our taxpayer money he's referencing. PAY THE FEDERAL EMPLOYEES!!! 📣

First Venezuela, then Colombia; next it will be Bolivia. What Trump is setting up is his ultimate goal of controlling the Panama Canal.

Congress is AWOL and opting to be impotent to stop these illegal actions.

I AM PRO-DIVERSITY
I AM PRO-EQUITY
I AM PRO-INCLUSION

WHICH MEANS I AM PRO-AMERICAN !!!!

Time to rip up and burn my copy of JD Vance's "Hillbilly Elegy" - it's probably full of lies as his VP interview/speech performances pointedly reveal. I'd feel better, but I know it won't change anything.

Better to donate several copies of "The Book Thief" and "Fahrenheit 451" to our local library.

A bully is immature, insecure, incapable, and intellectually challenged.

Citizens of all political leanings sang "The Star Spangled Banner" at a Raleigh music concert today in unison to open the season. Trump doesn't even know the words to that or "America the Beautiful," mis-mouthing the words.

My daughter had to pay not one but TWO tariffs to replace her cracked windshield on Thursday in addition to her deductible. Really expensive.

Born in Washington DC., I want to return before I pass but the current admin wants me to deal with the claim of violent crime-which isn't true. Can't return

USA is a predominantly rural country. I flew from RDU to STL and saw how truly rural our country is, with larger cities rare. Healthcare in small hospitals will be challenged if not eliminated by Medicaid cuts. Congress should have taken the same flight if they wanted to make an informed decision.

Why do news journalists on MSNBC continue to say that Mr. Trump swore to uphold the U. S. Constitution with his hand on the Bible? He did NOT place his hand in the Bible which Melania dutifully held. He refused to do so. Watch the swearing in again. He now says he's not sure he has to uphold it.

Dr. Bernadine Healy initiated the Women's Health Initiative which has saved hundreds of thousands of women's lives. Program has been eliminated. Annual administrative cost is $10 million, less than HALF what the Golfer-in-Chief has spent on golf in his FIRST 90 DAYS. Waste and abuse? Ya think???
April 24, 2025 at 7:10 PM
The pleased smirk on Mr. Trump's face when El Presidente of El Salvadore said he couldn't 'smuggle' Md father back to US said it all. He's manipulating another country with financial support, and his minions are acting accordingly. Their values (if any) are un-American, selfish, illegal & criminal!!
April 14, 2025 at 6:45 PM
Golfing again?! Between the plane cost and downtime from doing his elected job, Mr. Trump abandons his responsibilities to America while incurring unnecessary $$ waste and abuse for our country. He doesn't give it a second thought; he is focused on himself, not We the People. He couldn't care less!
April 4, 2025 at 8:31 PM
Is Mr. Trump that impotent that he can't bring back wrongly deported and innocent people rounded up by his domestic terrorist masked plain clothes immigration officers? He brags about beautiful relationships with San Salvadore, so why can't he correct these admitted mistakes right? Ask him!!!
April 2, 2025 at 8:15 PM
The Immigration undercover agents kidnapping students and faculty from college campuses IS DOMESTIC TERRORISM! While Trump plays golf (again), deportation orders target individuals from other nations who may have expressed opinions other than his own. Due process/free speech eliminated. Who's next?

Hegseth in Guam? Well, if info he shared about Houthi strike had been ditto in WWII, my Dad, a US Navy officer, & immigrant, and service personnel who set up Pacific theatre communications on Guam, hugh # USA soldiers would have been outted/killed and Japan would have won WWII.
Think about it!!!!!

Jeffrey Goldberg is a world class HERO; an outstanding journalist, contrary to the injected scenario and self-serving lies being told. I'll now subscribe to The Atlantic!
Truth, which could interfere with the Trump program of twisted reality, is 'verboten.' Trump lies only allowed!!!!
Hitler again..
