The U.S. is a broken nation. Republicans have led the smashing & breaking, until we are very much like our declared enemies.

Does this sound like Trump, his administration, Project 2025 had a plan, knew what they were doing as they initiated this war at Israel’s encouragement to bomb Iran into destruction & submission as Israel did to Gaza? Treating Iranians like Israel treats Palestinians? We need a U.S. regime change!

As Trump MAGA Republicans undermine our Constitution, institutions, education & society’s norms, they are not promoting conservative government & responsible society, rather they are destroying everything that Americans have cultivated & built since the first settlements in North America.

The best known fact: Trump MAGA Republicans don’t honor their promises! They promise, threaten, demand & take. But they don’t ever acknowledge, share, return, give back or honor those they deal with. Back stabbing, they hold out an empty hand & take with their other. Don’t trust them!

The only solution to reducing U.S. wars of aggression or proclaimed defense will be to eliminate the need for fossil fuels. We must convert to all other clean energy sources that the U.S. & each nation can sustain with their own resources. We abuse energy for war as we threaten our environment.

Violence against civilians during Trump’s terms occurs during other authoritarian regimes: Putin’s rise to power in Russia, Nazi Germany with Hitler, in Italy under Mussolini. Violence is given license & immunity, practiced with impunity by state dictators & facilitators as we saw on Jan 6th, 2021.

“Better late than never” doesn’t help our nation’s present & future. A president claiming his sudden unilateral acts address a “national emergency” is the National Emergency when it takes the U.S. Supreme Court a year, after the damage is done, to confirm the president acted un-Constitutionally.
