I hold moderate political views, favoring balanced solutions that bridge divides. I value fiscal responsibility alongside social progress, supporting policies that protect freedoms, and assist the vulnerable & less fortunate. Never a Trump supporter.

I must have missed the fine print on my ballot where I opted-in for my tax dollars to be used as a cleanup crew for fires he personally lit. It’s truly heartwarming to see public funds used to "protect" us from a crisis that was manufactured in-house.

Most people think losing freedom happens all at once. But it’s actually happening in the federal budget, the Big Beautiful Bill.

For every 100 dollars spent on Homeland Security, the government spends only ONE dollar on the FDA. They care 100 times more about tracking you than checking if your food is safe.

"Every agency is being gutted except for the one that controls you. This isn't about the traditional military we know. It’s a new system of intimidation designed to replace public service with government force. Wake up."

The sheer inability to recognize when you’ve been lied to, over and over and over again, has to be one of life’s greatest unsolved mysteries. MAGA cultists seem to have evolved a brand-new genetic defect: a brain filter that magically transforms blatant lies into comforting false truths.

Anything — and I mean anything — that brings genuine benefit to those in need or improves society as a whole, DT instinctively resists. It’s almost as if progress itself is a threat to his agenda. Instead of supporting meaningful change, he actively undermines society as a whole.

By the time you’ve lived as long as I have, the blindfolds society hands us from birth start to tear—and the view underneath isn’t pretty.

Now they’re controlling the media reporting on military operations! apple.news/AB2XGWygSQlK...

Pentagon removes major media outlets, including NBC News, from dedicated workstations as part of a new 'rotation program' — NBC News
NBC News, The New York Times, NPR and Politico must vacate their office spaces in two weeks for other news organizations — including at least one that did not request to be added.

Watching Donald Trump’s cabinet and department confirmation hearings, it is evident that Republican Senators are shirking their duty to provide meaningful & thorough oversight and uphold their responsibility to govern and safeguard the nation.

If Republicans fail to stand up to Trump from the very beginning, the slide toward authoritarianism will accelerate, as it did in Hungary and Turkey.

After trying to research how much Jack Smith’s investigation of DT, the total is somewhere between $35M & $50M. Release the report!

Ramaswamy and Musk show what they really want, “Cheap Labor”. The H1B program needs to be amended to allow wage balancing to match the existing sector workers wages. Not less, which allows them to layoff existing workers for cheaper labor.

If we didn’t already know, DT shows what he really cares about In request to Supreme Court to delay TikTok ban. He believes it helped him get elected, doesn’t care about Nat’l security.

Jo Jo, the bigoted base isn’t intelligent enough to decipher what’s happening. They get their information directly from Trumps mouth. Any negative experiences are attributed to someone or something other then DT, it’s never Trump to them.

Trumps rhetoric about all the things he’s going to do is just a smoke screen for what he secretly is planning to do. Controlling congress for the benefit of billionaires.

I don’t think DT knew anything about Gaetz’s background, other than he was a devout Trump MAGA supporter. Trump doesn’t read anything of importance or view anything but Fox.

Who would’ve believed that the U.S. Presidency is now a government version of QVC. Trump has taken peddling merchandise to a new level, never before seen or even contemplated.

A Nevada Commissioner, probably a retired judge made the ruling. We assume than the Trust was formed in Nevada & subject to Nevada jurisdiction. Let’s hope his next legal challenge is met with the same results.

He’s taking a chapter from Trump’s playbook. Lie, Lie, lie, and keep lying. The media won’t voice any strong arguments to the contrary, only modest objections. Sickening!

We need a change. Why ? Media’s credibility is undermined by sensationalism, bias, and the prioritization of speed over accuracy. Additionally, extreme overt partisanship has eroded trust, as audiences perceive reporting as agenda-driven rather than objective.

Terrifying. In addition to both the LA Times & WashPost who have sold their credibility to Trump. Now the Guardian is selling the Observer, the oldest Sunday Newspaper.
