Imagining better since the mid 20th century. I watched the historic first televised presidential debate on my own when I was seven years old, and then explained to my parents why they should vote for Kennedy. m.youtube.com/watch?v=gbrcRKqLSRw

tipswatch.com/2026/09/27/t... 23% of Treasury revenues under Trump go toward payment of the US Debt now. About 15% of revenues under Biden went to pay for the National Debt. Big wars, big tax cuts for the rich are the reason. When we pay more for the debt we have less for services, like FEMA.

"Flooding the zone" with this stuff might be in order.
Post from Mark R Elias 

"I think I'm getting the hang of this."

Mark's question to America.gov

Does the president have the authority over the conduct of federal elections,?

Answer:
The Constitution does not give the president the power to run or set the rules for federal elections. States have the main job if administering them. Congress can change most of those rules by statue. The president's role is to enforce existing federal law, not to replace state or congressional election rules.

The Machine software has been hacked, not at the point of voting, so if they audit it, the votes would appear correct, but at the point of tabulation, so that the votes that are cast are reported in their favor. It's only a fraction of votes, in specific districts, so not to arouse suspicion.

There's been some really great statistical analysis of the 2024 election that shows pretty compellingly this is how Trump stole the election, why they wanted to open up/seize voting machines in Georgia and other places, and why they wanted voter rolls seized. All this data helps obscure the deceit.

Have to imagine it's a coincidence that a president with historically low levels of approval and an open disdain for democracy is turning the White House into a fortress and building structures with snipers and drones and championing omnipresence surveillance and directing murderous secret police.

When Reagan ran for a 2nd term I was horrified. I knew what he did in his first term and how much worse it could get in his second. It was the first time I ever volunteered. I doggedly went door-to-door, even though assigned to a solid republican district. Reagan started the hell we live in now.
