Sorry, not buying it. They haven't done a damn thing to help themselves. They keep on voting for the people that "ruined their lives". I'm sorry the 21st century happened.

Notes from the Shadows dkogan.substack.com?r=2xxx9&utm_... Just made my first post on my Substack publication, Notes from the Shadows. I will be writing about our descent into an authoritarian state, photography & posting my photography. A good mix for what I hope is a short plunge into the abyss.

I just saw a video of the first cabinet meeting of Trump 2.0. All white men and one wrestling woman. All praying except you know who. Almost all wearing blue suits. I really think brown shirts with twisted crosses would have looked so much better.

Note to President Volodymyr Zelensky, Trump has never paid a bill in his life. At least not in full. He always tries to weasel out of it.

The President of the United States took the side of Putin (Hitler) yesterday. I haven't heard a peep from any Republican member of Congress. Nothing, nada, rien. I guess this is our "Peace in our Times" moment.

This can't be stated too many times. Trump is a master carnival barker. Democrats just get yawns. We need to be selling and branding all the time.

Good idea but the Democratic elected officials have no ability to introduce legislation as they are in the minority.

I don't this guy has any interest in following any orders from a court, even the Supreme Court. He controls the US Marshalls, who the courts rely on to enforce their rulings. We're in trouble.

davidpkogan.bsky.social @davidpkogan.bsky.social · 10/02/2025
I agree. The end of our Constitutional Democracy is in sight. What that will mean for mid-term elections is not being talked about. We don't have many moves left.

I can't wait until he gives the order to Hegseth, who will give it to the Generals. Will they follow that order?

How much is a penny worth? Article I, Section 8, Clause 5 gives Congress the exclusive power to coin money. It doesn't give it to someone who thinks they are a king. Every time he seizes a power he doesn't have moves us that much closer to a dictatorship.

davidpkogan.bsky.social @davidpkogan.bsky.social · 10/02/2025
Whether it's smart or not is not relevant. He doesn't have the Constitutional powers to do it and every time he siezes a power he doesn't have moves us closer to the end of Constitutional Democracy.

davidpkogan.bsky.social @davidpkogan.bsky.social · 10/02/2025
And therein lies the rub. Even if the Supreme Court, which is in his pocket, rules against him, it has no enforcement arm other than what you have stated. In a chess game it would be checkmate but I think we still have some moves to make. It's in our hands.

Someone has to enforce the rulings. Who will that be?

The courts have no way to enforce their rulings. Who's going to stop the defending?

davidpkogan.bsky.social @davidpkogan.bsky.social · 08/02/2025
Every thing Trump is doing is unconstitutional. He thinks he can do anything and basically the Supreme Court said so last year. Is he listening to the court orders? Is there anyone who can enforce the court orders that he doesn't control?

There's few that do but the Democratic Party as a whole, not at all. It's the same old thing. The end of the month come the emails asking for money. For what? How are you going to get us out of this mess? Please tell me. AOC, she gets it but she's locked out of leadership by arthritic old men.

I have an expensive Part D plan for one COPD inhaler which is not generic yet. But for most of my generic drugs Cost Plus is way better. Thank you, Mark. And now it's even easier because the doctors can send the script directly to Cost Plus.
