Republicans since Reagan have envisioned a Project 2025 America. Now that they have it, they aren't giving it up. Expect the shutdown to last and end badly.

True leadership, according to Sun Tzu, arises from moral rectitude and selflessnessโ€”concentrating power solely in the service of the mission and people. The leaders in that room other than Trump and his Secretary of War have these traits.

The lesson of history is that tyrants cannot be appeased.

Appeasement only feeds their insatiable hunger for power.

Tyrants prey on people who feel unsafe and vulnerable.

But without mass submission, a tyrant is powerless.

Charlie Kirk understood something crucial:
Young voters arenโ€™t tuning into cableโ€”theyโ€™re scrolling through TikTok, Instagram, and YouTube.

If Democrats want to reach the next generation, they need to start mastering the platforms where ideas actually spread.

Thanking God for sparing you in a natural disaster is a bit like sending a thank you note to a serial killer for murdering the family next door.

Heโ€™s wanted to declare martial law from day one.

Bypass all checks and rule as a tyrant.

Many have speculated how heโ€™d do it.

Now his gambit is clear.

DC was a test.

Heโ€™s using manufactured crime stats to send troops into blue states & cities.

This is not a drill.

Democracy is at defcon 1.

I honestly don't know what I did to deserve this incredible tribute. I can only say I'm honored, flattered, and humbledโ€”and, of course, deeply grateful to everyone who made this accolade possible. I pledge to do my utmost to live up to it. ๐Ÿ™๐Ÿผ๐Ÿค—

The State of Illinois at this time has received no requests or outreach from the federal government asking if we need assistance, and we have made no requests for federal intervention.

Trump is compromised.
On Epstein.
And with Putin.
Almost every person I know outside the US finds this obvious.
Almost everything I've learned in behavioral psychology, supports this.
HIS behavior supports this, daily.
Occam's Razor supports this.

Trump IS compromised.

Mortified that the leadership of... Europe... has to come here b/c we couldn't bother to hire a competent woman for the job & instead re-hired a child rapist insurrectionist felon who happens to be Putin's little lap bitch.

What Zelenskyy must sit through is now our eternal shame.

The American Experiment became one of the truly greatest success stories in the history of Planet Earth.

We cannot allow it to be undone by grifters, ideologues, macho morons, and keystone kops - led by a madman.

I may be wrong โ€ฆ. and itโ€™s fine.
But I do believe the pendulum is starting to swing the other way .
MAGA/GOP is freaking out about it .

The oil industry buys off Congress. No action on climate.

The NRA buys off Congress. No action on guns.

Insurance companies buy off Congress. No action on health care.

The list goes on and on.

Money in politics is the root of our dysfunction.

It was reported yesterday that an Arizona resident near Flagstaff died from pneumonic plague (same bacterium as bubonic plague). Bubonic plague killed tens of millions in 14th century Europe. Today itโ€™s easily treated with antibiotics. But cannot be treated with Ivermectin or prayer. MAGA look out.

Elon Musk posted that if the GOP Big Bill passes, he will form a new political party. He will call it "The America Party."

Of course, if it wasn't for Musk, there would be no Big Bill and Trump would be facing multiple criminal trials.
