Remember the first few months of this year, when all we talked about was DOGE and spending cuts and waste, and this administration gutted USAID?

And now they’re giving $40 billion (!) to Argentina.

Insane the amount of amnesia in this country and in our politics and media.

The spoiled majority (non-voters) are so beyond taking one for the team, but I like the idea. Keep ‘em coming 🐸🪧

Powerful ad from @gavinnewsom.bsky.social. Hard to believe this is America now, but it is.

California, please vote yes on Prop 50. And we need other states to follow. Every seat counts. DT must be stopped.

Amen.

Reporting live from Chicago, there’s no “hellscape” I’d rather be in.

Pope Leo blasts economy that marginalizes poor while wealthy live in bubble of luxury Pope Leo XIV has blasted how wealthy people live in a “bubble of comfort and luxury” while the poor suffer.

Pope Leo XIV has blasted how wealthy people live in a “bubble of comfort and luxury” while the poor suffer. In his first teaching document Thursday, Leo confirms that he is in perfect lockstep with Pope Francis on matters of social injustice.

When the media does not question these actions, they are COMPLICIT‼️ KEEP POSTING THEIR ABUSES AND CRIMINAL BEHAVIOR‼️

We need to have a general strike in front of the Supreme Court.

The Constitution is not a memorandum of "suggestions."

It is the most supreme rule of the rule of law.

I Refuse to Stay Silent. Will You? Read more here.

I refuse to let hopelessness prevail. This may just be one essay, by a lawyer few have heard of, in a newsletter read by a fraction of the public. But I will not stay silent.

Will you?

Pathological Abuse is not love. It is performance, power, and pretense. What survivors must eventually confess is not guilt or regret, but truth. The hope they clung to was built on illusion. The bond they once fought to preserve was never love, but control disguised as devotion. Why abusers create these illusions is to secure absolute power. They perform charm and false confidence to appear irresistible, manipulate affection to bind loyalty, and use cruelty to reinforce submission. Their goal is to keep victims trapped between longing and fear, feeding their sense of superiority. How they achieve it is through strategic conditioning. Pathological abusers such as narcissists, sociopaths, and psychopaths dehumanize through mockery, gaslighting, coercion, and emotional exhaustion. They perform dominance as charisma, demand admiration as proof of worth, and weaponize intimacy to maintain control. For survivors, reaching radical acceptance is the pivot point. It is the moment the trauma bond starts to fracture. The illusion no longer holds, even though its echoes still linger. The confession is not to the abuser, but to themselves: no apology, promise, or potential will ever make the relationship real. This clarity is not revenge. It is release. On the societal scale, the same patterns appear in Pathological Societal Abuse. Leaders and institutions mirror empathy, promise protection, and disguise control as care. When exposed, they shift blame and rewrite truth, just as the abuser does behind closed doors. ℗ Cindy Ann Pedersen 2025 Survivor Music: Cindy Ann Pedersen | Award-Winning Songwriter Pathological Abuse Specialist | Advocate Connect: BlueSky: https://bsky.app/profile/cindyannpedersen.com YouTube: youtube.com/@CindyAnnPedersen Substack: https://cindyannpedersen.substack.com/ Website: https://www.cindyannpedersen.com/ Also featured on: We Resist Web Radio Collective: https://weresistradio.com/cindy-ann-pedersen/ Spotify: https://open.spotify.com/artist/63zLgna4ymVAZTgyDXl4Xf Apple: https://music.apple.com/sg/artist/cindy-ann-pedersen/1778349950 ..available on most streaming platforms. Note: Pathological abuse serves as the umbrella term to encompass various manipulative behaviors and abuse tactics rooted in personality traits and disorders specifically associated with Narcissistic Personality Disorder (NPD) and Antisocial Personality Disorder (ASPD), with or without psychopathy. The terms “narcissist,” “sociopath,” and “psychopath” may be used for clarity. These traits would meet the criteria for clinical diagnosis if formally assessed. Simplified language helps explain these tactics without requiring clinical expertise. #SurvivorMusic #PathologicalAbuse #NameIt #Music #Narcissist #Sociopath #Psychopath #IndieMusic #Songwriter #ProtestMusic #CPTSD #Manipulation #Gaslighting #Mentalhealth #ProtestMusic #StrongerTogether #StandWithSurvivors #NoWayBack #Democracy #IMustConfess #Awareness Survivor Music | I Must Confess
