I’ve always expected there to be the silent shitheads. But the high volume stupidity on display in these United States is like watching drowning people refuse a life raft because they don’t like the color.

You wanted a culture war?
Good.
Now you’ve got one.

Every politician who calls this β€œfreedom” should be dragged back to the dirt roads they forgot. We are not the fringe. We are the foundation.
The working class is not your ATM, your cannon fodder, or your political theater. We are the muscle behind the myth … and we are wide awake now.

Trump needs the show. America doesn’t.

We’ve never bowed to kings, and we’re not starting for a man in a paper crown.

Real strength is quiet. It builds communities, defends liberty, and walks away from fights it knows it could win. A military parade is just theater for the insecure … a coward screaming in a bar fight, hoping the noise will keep the punches from landing.

Trump’s fragile little ego might need a parade to feel powerful … but America doesn’t. We don’t need tanks in the street or troops marching past golden stages to know who we are. Real strength doesn’t come with fireworks and forced applause. It doesn’t throw a birthday parade to feel relevant.

We are watching the slow rot of the republic, friends… one pardon at a time.

The Founders warned us about kings. They didn’t expect we’d elect one who golfs badly and pardons like a mafia boss after three bourbons and a Fox News binge.

Scott Jenkins, corrupt to the bone and baptized in the unholy waters of political patronage, got his sins wiped clean by Rev. Donβ€”high priest of vengeance and victimhood. Ten years? Too long, says Trump, in this new America, loyalty trumps law, and justice is just a four-letter word spelled β€œdeal.”

Ah yes… nothing says banana republic in a smoking jacket like a convicted sheriff peddling badges for bribesβ€”and then getting a golden get-out-of-jail-free card from the same man who once sold steaks and universities like snake oil.

Sanders and Cotton, champions of β€œsmall government,” now want FEMA in a helicopter with a checkbook.

Every man is independent until his roof is gone

God sent the wind … trump sent nothing

Sanders says Arkansas in 'dire need of federal assistance,' but Trump says no - Arkansas Times The state of Arkansas has appealed the federal government's denial of a request for assistance following disasters in North Arkansas.

Voted the right way and yet…can’t depend on Trump no matter how much you try. arktimes.com/arkansas-blo...

But here’s the good news:
Spring still comes.
Truth still flowers.
And every tyrant falls eventually … often beneath the weight of their own absurdity.
We remember that too, this Easter.

Amen, and pass the subpoenas.

You have not saved the nation … you’ve looted it with the flourish of a bankrupt Caesar wearing a red tie long enough to strangle the Bill of Rights.

So no, Mr. Trump, your Easter blessing rings hollow.
You are not the risen. You are the rot.

He dares invoke the sacred while laying siege to the First Amendment, the separation of powers, and the basic tenets of democracy like Herod with a Twitter handle.

The man who pardons war criminals and dines with demagogues now invokes the Prince of Peace with the greasy sincerity of a huckster in a tent revival. He dares post Happy Easter after plotting to send American citizens to foreign prisons without trial.

He offers thoughts and prayers always prayers, never policy while public schools rot, while teachers dig into their own pockets for pencils and paper towels.

This man talks of resurrection while building detention camps in the shadow of the Statue of Liberty.
He blesses families while tearing children from their mothers’ arms in the name of β€œsecurity.”

Thou shalt cut taxes for billionaires while the working class gnaws on the bones of trickle-down theology.

Let us not forget the commandments written in executive orders:
Thou shalt slash environmental protections to please the oil barons. Thou shalt impose tariffs that crucify American farmers while bowing to the whims of foreign strongmen.

Blessings to the lambs, he says after selling them to the highest bidder. Blessings to America after gutting her institutions, selling off the bones, and draping the carcass in golden drapes stamped TRUMP.

Ah yes, Happy Easter, to the man who treats the Constitution like a used napkin at Mar-a-Lago’s buffet line.

RFK Jr., now Health Secretary in name and folklore, says autism is caused by toxins in our food, water, and maybe…ultrasound. No data. No scientists. Just a crusade against shadows with a federally funded spotlight.

This is public health hijacked by a man who thinks epidemiology is a witch trial.

At Marjorie Taylor Greene’s town hall, stun guns crackled, protesters were dragged out, and she smiled through it all-blaming the media and denying she profited from tariffs she cheered in Congress and traded on in private.

She defends liberty like a butcher defends sheep.
