Have you been feeling like you should be more politically active lately, but you're not sure where to start? Come meet some like-minded folks at our next members' meeting! We have some excellent speakers lined up this month, including Professor Hammer from Wayne State University School of Law!

If you thought he would run this country differently than he ran his many failed businesses, you were sorely mistaken.

Republicans have shut down the government to take healthcare away from millions of Americans and give Trump a blank check for his illegal power grab.

Stop the Trump Shutdown

Republicans shut down the government to gut healthcare and bankroll Trump’s illegal power grab. We must hold the GOP accountable for causing chaos just to appease a wannabe king. app.sosha.ai/s/WOTH3n5M

Trump orders deployment of troops to Portland and authorises 'full force' The president says the latest move is "necessary" to protect immigration detention facilities in the major US city.

This escalation is a very dangerous moment. This is Donald's way of circumventing any block of National Guard troops by the Governor. This is also in hopes of creating a tinderbox moment that would allow him further power moves. Stay peaceful, but keep fighting, Portland!

Why Corporate Media is Bending the Knee
YouTube video by Robert Reich Why Corporate Media is Bending the Knee

Here's some insight into what's going on in Corporate Media today. Now we have a choice: do we reward the Walt Disney Company for reinstating Jimmy Kimmel's show to keep the money coming or do we continue to boycott to send a loud and clear message to all involved, including Trump and Carr?

23.09.2025 11:06 β€” πŸ‘ 4    πŸ” 0    πŸ’¬ 1    πŸ“Œ 0

ICYMI, Jimmy Kimmel made a few remarks on his show last week that got Donald real mad. He sent his bulldog FCC chair to threaten the network, which had been hoping to make a deal to gain more viewership (read: money & power,) so the network canceled Jimmy's show indefinitely.

Disney Plus subscribers quit in droves over Jimmy Kimmel axe Kimmel's show was suspended after he made remarks about the assassination of conservative activist Charlie Kirk

The Walt Disney Company (owners of ABC, Hulu, and Disney+, to name a few) is feeling the effects of the cancelations, folks! Speak up for free speech by canceling your subscriptions! Say NO to government censorship of broadcast media!

Our group got an anonymous tip that speaker Mike Johnson was going to be staying the night in our area. Kudos to the folks who were willing to stay up all night to make sure he got the welcome he deserves. You all are true heroes.

It's important to be able to identify who is abducting you, your friends, your family, or your neighbors so you can FIGHT BACK when appropriate.

In case you were wondering what the plan was, there it is: Deport all the brown people, replace them with machines or people on Medicaid.

Brooke Rollins on farm laborers: "There will be no amnesty. The mass deportations continue, but in a strategic way. And we move the workforce toward automation and 100% American participation, which with 34 million able-bodied on Medicaid we should be able to do fairly quickly."
