Trump's America - Star Trek "Patterns of Force"
YouTube video by Nerds On The Road Trump's America - Star Trek "Patterns of Force"

In 2016 Steve Bannon made a movie saying "..every once in a while Hollywood gets it right", showing clips from this Star Trek episode. Yet, he didn't understand the true lesson of this episode. They are using their twisted understanding of it now as a "blueprint" for Dear Leader's second term.

In 2009, the City of Aurora shut the Mission Viejo library. The community fought back and now this effort is a great way to show its support - plus there are cool retro-inspired perks!

I was talking to a friend who has unfortunately drunk the "cool aid" IMO and thinks we are headed for a "golden age" of AI and a sustainable new crypto monetary system that he says will keep the US dollar the reserve currency?? He also favors nuclear energy for more AI. Where does this come from?

Denver Mayor Mike Johnston was at a "Kangaroo Court". Now he faces jail time and prosecution by the DOJ! WTF? Republican Governors sent undocumented migrants to various Democrat controlled cities, they chose to handle it the best they could, now they want to punish? This is entrapment and extortion.

Please listen and shareβ€”this is a very serious situation. This is extremely alarming! The Trump administration, across two agencies, is considering bringing criminal charges against employees simply for doing their jobs.

The Social Security Administration is cutting 7,000 jobs and closing half of its regional offices. It's no coincidence that Elon Musk called Social Security a "ponzi scheme." They're gutting the program YOU'VE PAID INTO to make room for more billionaire tax cuts.

Now is the time to speak up.

If Republican President Theodore Roosevelt was alive today he would be outraged. He would say it is a dangerous regression that will undermine democratic institutions, efficiency, and public trust in government. We must denounce these unjust firings and so called new "civil service" reforms.

Doge is a Con job. I highly recommend watching this entire movie, Finding the Money (streaming now free on a few platforms) and studying experts like Stephanie Kelton who will break down how the government actually works. Watch the film study more about MMT..Doge is a Con job!!

It’s official: Elon Musk’s staffers have now illegally obtained classified information from the USAID office.

Here’s a recap of what’s happening:

US Constitution states only Congress has the power to lay and collect Taxes, Duties, Imports and Excises and so Donald Trump does not have the power to raise Tariffs by himself. This is illegal. Ok we could argue the Constitution is already dead but this proves it further if left unchallenged.

Maybe It Was Never About the Factory Jobs The theory that populist economic policies can win back the working class for Democrats has been tried, and it has failed.

We really are not OK. January 19, 2025 is the last full day of the USA as we have known it since June 21, 1788. Such a short timeframe in human history. I have faith we will get it back but how long and with what suffering!
