....... couldn't find that quote in his quote history (if you have the original source, please share😊)
BUT a good and effective leader would want to have wise advisors and not a bunch of brown nosers.

[We are] no longer a government by free opinion, no longer a government by conviction and the vote of the majority, but a government by the opinion and the duress of small groups of dominant men.
~Woodrow Wilson

Of course he is - he's a Monday morning Moron, and Tuesday, Wednesday, Thursday...... ad nauseum.
He and his goons are the high school bullies that should have gotten their asses kicked when they were younger!

Government ought to be all outside and no inside. . . . Everybody knows that corruption thrives in secret places, and avoids public places, and we believe it a fair presumption that secrecy means impropriety.
~Woodrow Wilson

Good Morning Bluesky 💙!

A man who thinks of himself as belonging to a particular national group in America has not yet become an American. And the man who goes among you to trade upon your nationality is no worthy son to live under the Stars and Stripes.
~Woodrow Wilson

Good Morning Bluesky 💙!

The government, which was designed for the people, has got into the hands of the bosses and their employers, the special interests. An invisible empire has been set up above the forms of democracy.
~Woodrow Wilson

🤣🤣🤣 I just totally sang that!!!

Good Morning Bluesky 💙!

We can have democracy in this country, or we can have great wealth concentrated in the hands of a few, but we can't have both.
~Louis D. Brandeis

“To us, masks are associated with cowardly desperados and the despised Ku Klux Klan. In all our history we have never tolerated an armed masked secret police.”

- Judge William Young, September 30, 2025

'Hunger Games' is a tried-and-true tale about a totalitarian society. It's more similar to China than America, but it's also similar to Nazi Germany and anywhere where the populace gets semi-brainwashed into serving the agenda of a very few.
~Elizabeth Banks

Good Morning Bluesky 💙!

Restriction of free thought and free speech is the most dangerous of all subversions. It is the one un-American act that could most easily defeat us.
~William O. Douglas

Good Morning Bluesky 💙!

Whatever the immediate gains and losses, the dangers to our safety arising from political suppression are always greater than the dangers to the safety resulting from political freedom. Suppression is always foolish. Freedom is always wise.
~Alexander Meiklejohn

Good Morning Bluesky 💙!

So keep fightin' for freedom and justice, beloveds, but don't you forget to have fun doin' it. Lord, let your laughter ring forth. Be outrageous, ridicule the fraidy-cats, rejoice in all the oddities that freedom can produce.
~Molly Ivins

Good Morning Bluesky 💙!

In times such as these, people should recognize that evil knows no borders, knows no limits and knows no compassion. Those around the globe that value freedom must continue to persevere even in the darkest of times.
~Michael C. Burgess

Good Morning Bluesky 💙!

Their final objective toward which all their deceit is directed is to capture political power so that, using the power of the state and the power of the market simultaneously, they may keep the common man in eternal subjection.
~Henry A. Wallace

Good Morning Bluesky 💙!

We hold these truths to be self-evident: that all men are created equal; that they are endowed by their Creator with certain unalienable rights; that among these are life, liberty, and the pursuit of happiness.
~Thomas Jefferson

Good Morning Bluesky 💙!

What is ominous is the ease with which some people go from saying that they don't like something to saying that the government should forbid it. When you go down that road, don't expect freedom to survive very long.
~Thomas Sowell

Good Morning Bluesky 💙!

I think we are in fact, losing free speech. We don't seem to care though. Many of us don't seem to notice. We will have to do a lot of work to bring back the American way to America.
~Henry Rollins

The white supremacists have come out of hiding.......
I didn't know so many fellow Americans had unresolved anger & hate issues!

Good Morning Bluesky 💙!

The greatest fears that governments have are freedom of speech and exposing the corruptness, the ineptitude, and the double dealing going on that they don’t want the public knowing about.
~Gerald Celente

Good Morning Bluesky 💙!

Some people still believe you should just fall in line with whats going on - and thats scary. It makes a mockery of freedom of speech.
~Emily Robison

....it has been a long game.
Project 2025 and the slogan : you won't own anything, and you'll be happy........
Modern day slaves.

Once you permit those who are convinced of their own superior rightness to censor and silence and suppress those who hold contrary opinions, just at that moment the citadel has been surrendered.
~Archibald MacLeish

I'm extremely disappointed that he participated.
State Dinner for a Fascist president-no thanks.

It was so painful to watch.
I don't think I could contain myself.
Those..... politicians, world leaders etc. who see it-they need to shut it down.
Forget protocols and etiquette
Get rude, interrupt....the silence of your actions is sending a message to the little people-You don't care!!!

See ....Evil attracts Evil!!

I'm looking at all the white supremacists who think it's ok to misrepresent the truth!
Hitler did the same, because Hate can't come up with their own symbols and lore.
cough..cough...
Patel, you will never be chosen!
For Valhalla or Fólkvangr
But I'm told Goddess Hel might have pity.....

Repetition does not transform a lie into a truth.
~Franklin D. Roosevelt

Good Morning Bluesky 💙!

Let us never forget that government is ourselves and not an alien power over us. The ultimate rulers of our democracy are not a President and senators and congressmen and government officials, but the voters of this country.
~Franklin D. Roosevelt

Places that once buzzed with the normal sounds of laughter and people interacting, are eerily subdued.
People walk around frowning, no excited conversations, smiles gone 😓
All for the price of eggs & gas......
and still no Epstein files.
