When the “greatest economy in the world” leaves millions struggling to eat, it’s not great … it’s broken.

It’s honestly heartbreaking that feeding people has become a political fight. No one in this country should have to beg their government for basic compassion.

In other words: Democrats will show up, listen, and put Americans first … then start fixing what’s been broken.

Sounds like what he’s describing is a chance for Democrats to focus on rebuilding … restoring integrity, protecting rights, and putting people first again.

Right? You can’t just tell people everything’s great when they’re still struggling to afford basics. Folks live the economy every day … they don’t need a lecture about it.

This is exactly why we need leaders who understand that “governing” means protecting people’s livelihoods, not holding them hostage for political points.

But hey, I get it ... for Republicans, it’s like a dog spotting a squirrel. "Treason! Obama! Deep State!" the usual dopamine hit. But don’t get played. Trump promised to release the Epstein files. He hasn't. Ask yourself why. If he’s got nothing to hide, then open the damn vault.

That’s not just political theater, that’s DEFCON-level desperation. You don’t roll out the DNI to toss red meat unless the kitchen is on fire. And Obama? Really? That’s the distraction of choice? Not exactly subtle.

Today we watched U.S. Senator Alex Padilla slammed to the pavement and cuffed for simply exercising his constitutional right. If that doesn’t ignite your anger, your outrage, your utter disgust at the direction this country is barreling toward, what will?

This isn’t about the Army’s 250th anniversary. It isn’t about Flag Day. It’s a grotesque vanity spectacle for a wannabe strongman, and it reeks of the authoritarian rot seeping into our institutions.

So, step in. Speak up. Do the work. Be the difference. The world doesn't need more bystanders ... it needs builders, healers, and fighters for what's right…

When someone from Pakistan looks at the U.S. and thinks, ‘Nah, that’s too unstable for me,’ maybe, just maybe, we should take a hard look at how things are going.
