Indeed, the Nazi regime, heavily orchestrated by Minister of Propaganda Joseph Goebbels, famously used the 1936 Olympics and its athletes to project an image of national superiority, power, and unity to both domestic and international audiences. Welcome to the Fourth Reich.

The Jeffrey Epstein saga is a powerful tale of human abuse at an unimaginable scale. It is a story of privilege that shows the extent to which wealth has become a driving force in eroding liberty, justice, & freedom in the U.S. My take on it can be found here:

Yes....and it is especially appalling when the contributions are coming from someone who has the family background to know better. I guess getting a position in the State Department warranted selling out his family and friends.

We all need to be fighting the good fight to remove Jim McDonald. Every city needs the kind of city leadership like the leadership of the City of Minneapolis.

So if you happened to vote for Trump, that mistake is dwarfed by the mistake that God made in bringing Trump to life. We need to forgive those who voted for Trump and give them some grace.

As the federal government devolves into cruelty & chaos, local governments increasingly become the defense for their citizens. Therefore, now, more than ever, who hold local office really matters. If you are in Los Angeles, please make time this Friday to attend this fundraiser for Aida Ashouri:

The world should now realize that Trump represents a clear & present danger to humanity. It is time for the analysis paralysis to stop. We gave a felon not just a gun, but a military.

There is a very important opportunity to put someone in the Los Angeles City Attorney slot who has the interests of the people of Los Angeles at heart and who has the experience to effectively represent those interests, Aida Ashouri.

Trump says that he doesn't care about millions of protesters. Making an autocrat care about people is a struggle for power, requiring citizens to overcome fear, build broad-based movements, & exert ongoing pressure. We must be up to it.
It is now the day before we have a unique opportunity to have our voices heard en masse...as citizens who love our country and who do not want to have our freedom, liberty, civil rights, and Constitution taken away:
open.substack.com/pub/50501ca/...
NO KINGS, NO TYRANTS, NO DICTATORS, NO AUTOCRATS
We are at a tipping point. We are in the midst of an escalating crisis. The changes that have occurred in the U.S. over the past nine months are not subtle. We the people are the force needed to stop autocracy from over taking the country that we love.

People want their votes to count. We do not want our votes to be weighted in such a way that our votes to not accurately reflect the collective will of the people, but rather represent some manifestation of political control. Gerrymandering does the latter.

The consolidation of power aspect of what is happening is quite true. While the quote you shared is widely attributed to Mussolini, researchers have been unable to verify that he ever actually said or wrote it. In fact, some argue it contradicts his other writings on the subject of corporatism.

Free speech is important. It is why it is the first amendment. Trump has made no secret of the fact that he wants to control the truth you hear. His latest attack on Jimmy Kimmel is more proof that of this. If you are in Los Angeles, please join us tomorrow:

Last week we saw well-trained professional scientists lose their jobs at the CDC because those scientists were not willing to compromise scientific truth to support the narrative of their ultimate boss, Trump. This has been going on for years in the private sector:
