Father. Liberal. American. News-Obsessed. Internet Junkie. Trying to make sense of it all.
Last night was great, but it’s not win.

If you’re tired of this corrupt, authoritarian administration, show up and vote in the midterms. We have to get people out to the polls and show them that their vote matters.

Speak up, vote more. We don't have to live like this.

For like the fifth year in a row, Arctic Monkeys takes the cake for my Spotify 2025 wrapped.

Easily one of my all time favorite bands can’t get enough of their music.

But is Spotify trying to call me an unc?

“Narco terrorist” isn’t a magic word that strips people of protection once they’re out of combat.

No one is standing up for “narco terrorists.” We’re standing up for the laws of war.

We shouldn't let grief for our dead be a blank check for the government to kill without accountability.

If the President can yank granted presidential pardons now, then every J6er, drug trafficker, and fraudster can go ahead and pack their bags for prison.

Woke up proud, knowing a Trump +22 district in Tennessee just shrank to about +6.

Keep showing up.

Keep spreading the message.

Keep registering voters.

STOP IT.

THESE LIVE-ACTION REMAKES HAVE BEEN SO DAMN BAD.

Aftyn was always on the road to a loss in a deep red state, so this isn’t exactly shocking.

But shoutout to everyone who showed up and tried to flip the district.

Most of this is never happening, and a lot of it’s illegal.

So there’s that.

Pete Hegseth (2016): “If you’re doing something that is just completely unlawful and ruthless, then there is a consequence for that. That’s why the military said it won’t follow unlawful orders from their commander in chief.”

Same words.
Same message.
Different party.

Black Americans, get ready for even more racial profiling.

Trump’s push to kick out Somalis just gave racists and fascists another excuse to harass our communities and tear this country even further apart.

How to become apart of the Regime's Pentagon press:

Swear loyalty, not truth.

Sign the gag order with a smile.

Show you can “yes man” on command.

Be loudly biased, proudly uninformed.

Attack real reporters.

You don’t get to call yourself the party of “family values” while cheering on policies that destroy families.

That’s not conservative. That’s not Christian.

And it’s definitely not the American way.

SMH, you know it's bad when Costco gotta sue.
December 2, 2025 at 2:13 AM
If it’s not apparent yet, Trump’s administration treats “the law” like a suggestion.

This is the kind of illegal orders our patriots warned us about.

MAKE WHITE HOUSE CHRISTMAS DECORATIONS POLITICAL AGAIN!

Right or left?

I prefer the right, it looks way better.

Pretty funny, but not coming from the Secretary of War.
December 1, 2025 at 3:45 PM
They lose their minds and demand the full force of government, blame Biden, or immigrants when these terrible crimes happen.

But when it’s one of their own?

Silence.

If your representative isn’t on this list and is suddenly mad about Afghans being vetted ‘too fast,’ that’s not concern, that’s gaslighting.

BREAKING: The DC shooter was granted asylum under Trump this year.

Crazy, right?

No. It doesn’t matter just like it doesn’t matter he was vetted in 2021 under Biden. I'm more interested in solutions not which side dropped the ball.
November 27, 2025 at 2:08 AM
If your first reaction is to blame “the left,” you’re missing the point.

Let the facts come out. In the meantime, focus on what we know and who we lost.

Pray for those soldiers’ and their families.

This is wild.

If you actually want to flip this district for Aftyn, go vote!

Early voting ends today, and Election Day is Dec 2.

God, I love being gaslit in the mornings.

Keeping Confederate statues up is actually based.

They’re a permanent reminder of what happens when you choose to be traitorous losers who tried to destroy the Union to protect slavery.

HOPE!
