Arthur Schopenhauer
(*22.02.1788 / †21.09.1860)
What you’re seeing is earlier—closer to the SA phase:
– arbitrary arrests
– coercion
– detention without due process, backed politically
BUT this is getting WORSE — if you ALLOW it to continue.

I’m far from the U.S., but I care deeply about what happens to democracy there. It shapes the world we live in.
Voices like Major (Ret.) Richard Ojeda remind me what civic courage still looks like.

🇨🇭 In Switzerland’s direct democracy, people vote often — on local to national issues.
🇺🇸 In the U.S., most could vote every two years.
Most important in EVERY democracy: make yourself heard — and VOTE!
In Switzerland, you think will I survive?
In the U.S., it’s can I afford to?
Every Swiss, even the poorest, is covered by insurance.
No ideology — a wealthy, conservative nation that cares.
Caring for people isn’t radical — it’s what civilization looks like.

“There is simply no way we would have been able to afford the lifesaving care that our child received because of Medicaid.”
Republican Medicaid cuts are cruel and shameful.

What a day of betrayal!
Senator Murkowski fears the MAGA GOP more than her own constituents.
Says one thing, votes another.
She had her chance. Get rid of her!

We spoke to several lawmakers yesterday and touched on a host of important topics, which you'll see soon on both our channels.

Let’s forget the $400,000 Trump gets for making your life harder.
Cabinet secretaries make $250,000+
- not doing their job.
Congress members earn $170,000+
- yet Republicans just follow Trump.
You ’d be fired working like this.
So, FIRE THEM!

The highest administrative court ruled political detentions were
NOT subject to appeal
NOT open to legal review
NOT protected by due process
That’s HOW the RULE OF LAW was DISMANTLED — from the BENCH.

A 6 to 3 Supreme Court ruling grants the executive branch the power to deport migrants to third countries.
WITHOUT notice
WITHOUT hearing
WITHOUT judicial review
This is the JUDICIAL SUSPENSION of DUE PROCESS – in PLAIN SIGHT.

Didn’t vote?
Maybe you just couldn’t be bothered.
He just sent Marines to LA!
NO REBELLION, NO MANDATE, JUST POWER!

To lie so boldly it drowns the facts—then present false context as truth.

On some top airlines, they might even hand you one during the safety briefing.

But don’t forget to take it off right after you clear the airport.

Because he promised more food, blamed the farmer for everything bad, and mooed just like them.
But:
The farmer cared for them - the butcher wooed them.
Now some already bleed. The rest still cheer.

“He’s a lunatic.”
That’s what a conservative, federal judge gets called by a U.S. president —
for upholding the law.
For not surrendering to threats.
What a shame!
And what a warning!

“Radical left lunatic judge“ - is what Trumpists say.
Like in Russia. Hungary.
History warns:
Freedom dies in small steps.
NO DUE PROCESS -
NO FREEDOM
Not for YOU. Not for ANYONE.
Do you still watch in silence?
