@marcelias.bsky.social Your work is invaluable. Ali Velshi's reporting on his 3/7/26 show was comprehensive but discouraging. "They" are hitting on too many fronts. So, can you map out how it is possible for us to win considering ALL of the voting suppression? Too many voters are going to give up.

These people aren't necessarily our elected officials.

Americans are dead. Prices are skyrocketing. The Middle East is on fire. Civil war is brewing in Iran.
And for what? A war that will leave the same hardliners in charge? A war that can't actually destroy their nuclear program?
This is incompetence. Plain and simple.

Trump never had a plan for the more than 1 million Americans in the Middle East, but if youβre a MAGA minion, his White House swoops in to save you.

Karoline Leavitt told us the US State Department was helping Americans stranded in the Middle East.
She lied.
One Texas woman in Dubai called the State Department hotline, was scolded for being scared and then hung up on.
This administration is *full* of incompetent, rude people.

McBATH: Did you just hear me? He has to crawl through mold and feces and bodily fluids just to take a shower. This is absolute lunacy and you know it.
NOEM: I would disagree with the judge
CROCKETT: I'm sure you would, but can you tell me whether or not you have a law degree?
NOEM: A what?
CROCKETT: A law degree
NOEM: No I do no-
