renaming them The Trump Files for obvious reasons…

What do these have in common?

Born Again Salvation

God's Chosen People

'al-Dawlah' (The State)

They all imply that God favors one group over another. It's simulated tribalism using cult techniques to motivate the ignorant to obey an elite.

Abrahamic religion in a nutshell: Nationalism.

America isn’t a result of Trump, Trump is a result of America….

American sprinters Tommie Smith and John Carlos, along with Australian Peter Norman, during the award ceremony of the 200 m race at the Mexican Olympic games. During the awards ceremony, Smith (center) and Carlos protested against racial discrimination: they went barefoot on the podium and listened to their anthem bowing their heads and raising a fist with a black glove. Mexico City, Mexico, 1968. Tags Olympics Protest Rights Human Rights

To every US athlete who makes the podium in Italy:

It is going to be the fight of our lives…

Here is JD boosting the lies of the “trucker” convoy, #FluTruxKlan, while simultaneously pushing Kremlin talking points."the Ukraine" is the term used to refer to it as a province of Russia's. Instead of a sovereign nation

I want to laugh at it but sadly it’s true.

My own theory re #midterms: the weapons-grade data theft by #DOGE, combined with #Palantir & other mass data collection, will target vulnerable precincts with ICE/CBP warrantless arrests, esp voters of color. That means people need to vote with such overwhelming force, the election can’t be rigged.
