It's not without surprise that while their original lawsuit failed, they are moving their way up with the appeals process - likely taking it to the supreme court.

0/24, thanks to Mark Elias and lower-court judges, honoring their oath to the Law, rather than Trump's sycophants and DOJ that ascribe the law to be "Trump is the Law" (just as Pam Bondi outlined) during the now infamous Epstein Files press conference.

The corrupt and Trump captured DOJ's attempt to force Minnesota to offer up their voter roles, can be viewed here.

The sheer number of stratagems, gambits, rogue acts, and baseless claims are seemingly never ending. The Trump Regime, its enablers, and sycophants continue to pursue their baseless assaults on democracy and the rule of law. While it's holding at the moment, within the courts: SCOTUS and the court of public opinion is next. They are choosing to pursue this from a stance of presentation, not one of actual substance; which is very on brand from Trump himself - make a baseless claim, often claiming that all judges and law scholars agree - without ever mentioning a single name. Why? Because it's always performant and performative... also because claiming mass fraud before a single vote is cast, is the definition of priming and choreographing your narrative way too early. While Trump believes this bolsters his point, it actually performs in the opposite way, for any American with half a brain - rather than willy nilly choosing to believe every baseless and unverified claim Trump pontificates upon.

serves as the same exact stratagem Trump uses when he

Ever notice how they always make widespread claims of fraud in our election, while never backing it up? That's because there is absolutely no basis for it.

Therefore, it should be trivial to argue, yet again, the Trump-regime isn't trying this case truly on its merits - but rather, in the court of public opinion. Any voter suppression and sewing of mistrust in our elections that are possible, they are going to pursue. Bar none.

I hope everyone realizes that the reason why they are pushing these lies, is not only for governmental capture in perpetuity, but - perhaps more importantly - because they are going to all go to jail. Just consider MAGA Mike's own words, when he says "I'm running a protection program."

Much love to you brother... been there before too with my disability. So many people complain and parrot the idea of mass fraud with disability or medicaid. That's so absolutely laughably wrong. The guy is right, they require round the clock documentation and literally if you have 20% function that permits you only to work 20% of the time (8 hours per week)... that's still considered not disabled; it doesn't matter if next week you're completely not functional, or that 32 hours per month is not enough to live off of. Now imagine that same scenario and be expected to come up with ~$15,000 per year to tend to your disability through medicaid. Now imagine the case where the usual Republican shitbags claim you must work 80 hours per month, minimum in order to qualify for medicaid. Ok great, some can do that, others can't. Well guess what? Now that you make more than $1700, you are now disqualified for medicaid and now must cough up $15K per year between premiums and MooP+deductible included. This is the shit world we live in. Humans suck at nuance; and as of late, they are hugely suck in terms of a lack of dignity, humanity, sympathy, honesty, vulnerability and intelligence. "This new normal" brought to you by the biggest IRL troll in the existence of humanity and misanthrope and delusional sadistic narcissist in the history of the world. Yes, Republicans are literally inhumane monsters; they only care about serving the ultra-wealthy: who don't require more all consuming soul-sucking money through their siphon-up economic crony-capitalist Blackrock monopolies and making everyone suffer. Screw them and CItizen's United. We must get them out, through whatever means necessary. We already know they committed a coup last time they lost.

Now for the sad reality... they have been saying the quiet parts out loud for years and the public is so indifferent, apathetic, blind, or sadistic to it to care. People only understand what affects them, otherwise all their opinions are shaped by the influence of others. Guess who can overwhelm and game this influence, kids? That's right... the corporations. This has been especially the case ever since Citizens United's precedence (or immaterial, lack thereof basis) that determined corporations deserve personhood too, but not any of the responsibility of paying taxes, nor following the laws. When you make a multi-person ran corporation, operate as it's own independent body-figure-head agency... who do you go after when they lie, cheat, poison, or steal? Answer: the corporation goes down, not the bad actors behind it. If, by chance they do after these bad-actors, it's all pay-to-win, play-to-win with stalling out investigations and trials for literal decades. Money buys slowdown, on an already massively taxed system.

I know 100 years from now, of we somehow make it out of this shithole situation, they will balk at the fact 90 years later, we repeated the same cycle as in WWII and this time switched places. They'll ask how it happened, with the post-WWII red-scare, and why did we decide to surrender all of our power and influence, all so the same corporations that sold and outsourced America in the mid-90s, can just turn around and blame it on China. Don't you get it? Their positions are always materialistic and focused on DARVO, flooding the zone, controlling the narrative, silencing and squashing descent, gutting any/all ways the government serves and supports its people, then fashioning this same system to use against the will of the people. It's that simple... yet so many never pick up on the overt pattern. Hell, as mentioned earlier, they admit to it out loud. When caught or called on it, they say they're joking, or blame the victim. Just look at what happened with Venezuela: claimed we were helping them, targeting narco terrorists, only for when this fascist regime fully seized our government to prime/choreograph and normalize this behavior enough for them to shortly after admit: "yeah, we were always here for the oil after all... it was never about the drugs." Begrudgingly, a vast majority of corporations/organizations also operate through similar means. This is where we come full-circle and underline this is why the rich are Republicans.

While this is surely an opinion piece, I will back it up with saying that this is just straight up fact and not even really opinion - but it's there for the disclaimer. Checkmate fascist GOP/MAGA! We can play that same game, too! We love loopholes!

Now people just need to show up, and show out - for elections and for we the People to raise our voices in mass dissent - should Trump, and Oligarchs, try to gaslight us with an national emergency or gaslight us - on what is otherwise a very clear Blue Tsunami rolling in. 🌊

THE 2026 MIDTERMS ARE AN "ALL OR NOTHING" PRECIPICE FOR DEMOCRACY. WE MUST ACT.

I take zero pleasure in reporting this—but I have a responsibility to. The litany of facts, abuses, and gaslighting surrounding the rigging of the 2026 midterms is undeniable. We are witnessing the highest level of corruption in our nation's history. If we fail to rise to this occasion—to prepare, react, respond—we will be blindsided, complacent, complicit, and essentially granting our "inferred consent" by default.

I know most of us are exhausted: forced into survival mode, isolated, fearful, with some feeling hopeless that we can stop it. But here is the undercurrent we all sense but rarely voice: We the People are still the majority. Our unified voice and vision matter. Not only must we demand accountability, transparency, and justice—we must demand elucidation of truth. We must approach this with authenticity, honesty, integrity, and an unflinching commitment to getting down to what is real—above all else.

THE "BILL OF SALE" BEING FORCED ON US

We are being sold a narrative designed to break our will:

• Adopt nihilism; accept this as the "new normal."
• A two-tiered justice system with zero accountability exists—and politics is just a circus, so why bother?
• The Overton Window has shifted over the past decade into delusional mis/disinformation; projection is weaponized to enforce silence in extremist times.
• Our government has been entirely compromised, weaponized, and corrupted.
• The powers that be will never relinquish control—because doing so means accountability, consequences, punishment. They don't even bother hiding who they are anymore.
  Disinformation and propaganda run rampant through legacy media.
• Lower courts remain the last bastion—vetoed by an outwardly corrupt Supreme Court that no longer adheres to the Constitution.
• This administration holds all the cards, engaged in active cover-ups while also being the ones "investigating" crimes. Any of us can be subjected to: weaponization of the DOJ, Gestapo-style mercenary squads, emotional and domestic terrorism, socially engineered investigations on fraudulent bases—victimized by the very system designed to protect us and elucidate truth.
• The Constitution is continually trampled upon as "mere suggestion" rather than outward law.
• When all systems fail, it falls to the people—and lawfully, the military—to follow its clear instructions. That lawful aspect is precisely what makes resistance difficult when equality under the law isn't applied universally, when dissent is hyperbolically labeled terrorism, and when extremists are handed carte blanche to abuse power with transactional immunity.
  THE GOP PLAYBOOK IS FULLY DEPLOYED

I can name 20+ methods of "flooding the zone"—a strategy named by Steve Bannon, who unequivocally stated: "Trump is entitled to a third term in 2028 and people ought to get used to it." Project 2025's playbook is nearly fully implemented. Constitutional protections are being squashed or ignored. Their super-majority is continually abused.

And let's be clear: Trump denied any connection to Project 2025—only to immediately install its framers and Citizens United-aligned operatives into positions of power upon inauguration. (The irony mirrors "Truth Social" itself.) As we also realize, they have demanded a stop to the vote counts during the determination period; they are claiming that since California takes time to count the votes - that's not normal (when in reality, according to the Public Policy Institute of California: California ranks 1st in population nationwide, housing nearly 40 million residents. It accounts for roughly 12% of the entire U.S. population, and is home to more people than the 21 least populous states combined.). Thus, these claims are frivolous, engineered, and primarily interested in their tactic of voter suppression through subterfuge and false-narratives.

Legacy media, algorithms, foreign and local adversaries, AI bots, bad-faith actors, and duplicitous individuals driven by misanthropy, hatred, vitriol, and violence are systematically disseminating fake news, false narratives, gaslighting, and projection born from self-hatred, anger, and sadism.

This undercurrent (underkurrent) is valid—rooted in factual abuses of power, unilateral overreach, intimidation, blackmail, and a culture of fear designed to silence opposition and demand universal compliance. We the People have not offered our blessing. Nor our consent.

THE 2024 ELECTION RESULTS FAIL EVERY METRIC

While I don't possess direct evidence myself—suffice it to say: the 2024 results fail every metric of statistical analysis. We had a president who enacted an active coup and attempted overthrow in January 6th, only to be held entirely unaccountable—and then supposedly win every swing state.

What are the chances those results were real when we consider:

• Louis DeJoy's involvement with slowing mail delivery
• Ballot boxes being lit on fire; ballots illegally seized or destroyed
• 60+ bomb threats called into Democratic strongholds
• That doesn't even include Elon Musk: Interfering in the election via disinformation posted to Twitter, "helping people register to vote" in swing states out of "the kindness of his heart"—while capturing PII; Contributing $250M+ to Trump's campaign funds, then seeing his net worth increase by $700B over 18 months; DOGE's unfounded claims of "waste/fraud/abuse" used as pretext for dubious, immoral, illegal actions tied to exfiltrating Americans' sensitive personal data held with the IRS—likely committing one of the greatest levels of fraud in world history
  THE TRUMP REGIME'S ACTIONS SINCE EARLY 2025

A litany of abusive actions affecting voting and denying the People's consent are literally endless and a "flood the zone" tactic, which include - but are not limited to:

• Weaponization of ICE, then the DOJ
• A duplicitous Supreme Court committed to unilateral decisions outside legal precedent—granting absolute presidential immunity and gutting the Voting Rights Act of 1965
• Illegal, unwarranted, unprecedented seizing of four-fifths of states' 2020 ballots; blackmailing/terrorizing Minnesota in attempts to force release of voter rolls
• New voting requirements: proving citizenship, obtaining a US passport or visa
• A two-tiered standard on gerrymandering—permitting GOP and red states unprecedented mid-decade redistricting as an absolute power play, out of consensus
• MAGA Mike "The Grindr" Johnson's continual sabotage of the House of Representatives: shuttering it for multi-week recesses whenever slight defection or accountability occurs
• TODAY IS TRUMP'S BIRTHDAY—AND I DOUBT FOR A SECOND HE WILL ENGINEER HIS FIFTH FAKE ASSASSINATION ATTEMPT. (edit: Yup... after the fact, they claim there was a drone strike from a citizen from Ohio; while not fair, at face value, this individual appears to be Republican - just like Butler Pennsylvania. They always recycle the same tactics of tactlessness, over and over again - ad nauseum.

Given his universal unpopularity (even among some MAGAs) and his failed Hitler-esque dictatorship/warmongering that launched him into a war he cannot exit—and is held to account by Iran and Western socialized democracies like the EU—he seeks engineered sympathy. This serves as predicate for emergency powers, distraction, and shift of focus.

He accomplishes multiple objectives with another "attempt on his life":

Proceeding with a failed birthday event amid choreographed dangers demonstrates likelihood something will occur—showcasing his "bravery" or "strength"
A more serious attempt becomes justification for building the hospital/bunker (aka ballroom)—further rationalizing unilateral, illegal actions to tear down "the People's house" without consent, defrauding the American public
A serious attack provides justification for megalomaniacal/genocidal nuclear retaliation and further destabilization of world order toward WWIII
All serve as dangerous distractions—establishing unprecedented means for power grabs, extremist unilateral actions/policy at home and abroad. The sheer intentionality of dragging out this Iran debacle combined with ongoing lies has served to:

• Ignore the affordability crisis
• Completely disregard transparency; avoid the Epstein cover-up altogether
• Hide justification for using war to prevent the US from sitting on the precipice of actual depression/recession—even though we're clearly amid one, with an economy propped up only by AI/data centers/defense, global reliance on the USD (other countries purchasing bonds as the USA bankrupts itself, bankrolls taxpayers), and continued avoidance of taxing corporations or individuals with obscene wealth
• AMERICA IS SLIDING INTO FASCISM. Once we list all of the abuses together, recognize the underlying pattern amid the deluge of constant minutia and attacks of this administration - it becomes much more clear what's happening. They prefer to overwhelm us, divide us, distract us, gaslight, and project. It all ties back to the original statement: And and all actions and accusations are a form of self-admission with these sick individuals
  Not the fascism of WWII—but more clandestine, insidious. It fosters a culture of fear, scarcity, continual scapegoating, false blame. This was never about left vs. right, black vs. white, immigrant vs. citizen, self-agency vs. birther, or "Christian" vs. atheist. It's rich vs. poor. Top vs. bottom. In an era where super-corporate megalomaniacal conglomerates care only about maximizing profits, laying waste to the planet and its resources, suppressing truth through oppression/intimidation/gaslighting/projection/distraction/scapegoating/lobbying/gerrymandering/absolute power—and most likely next: implementation of Section 230 (federal internet censorship law), attacking independent media's last bastion.
  This is unsustainable. The GOP realizes it. Even MAGA is starting to wake up. You can only gaslight, delay, project—so far—before even the most extremist views start asking questions and reconsidering loyalty.
  But I am absolutely certain: To be part of this cult and regime requires selling your soul to the devil. Perhaps more striking: this current zeitgeist directly mirrors Revelations from the Christian Bible. "Christian Nationalists" who pride themselves on "truth" and "the will of God" have gone to ends of the earth defending their antichrist leader. Re-read the Bible—or read it fully for the first time—before your illiteracy, immorality, duplicity, subterfuge, and Kool-Aid drinking prevents you from recognizing your own blasphemy. You've chosen repeatedly: fiction over fact, hate over love, supremacy over equality, illegality over legality, projection over accountability, lies over truth, opacity over transparency, blind allegiance over autonomy, greed over virtue, Satan over Christ. Profits over prophets. Preying over praying.
  TO ANYONE WITH THE SLIGHTEST MODICUM OF RIGHT MIND OR METANOIA:
  You made your bed—now it's time to sleep in it. I have absolutely zero compassion, empathy, or patience for the sheer ignorance. These were some of the same people who, alongside Alex Jones, believed a cabal (not "cable," guys) of human traffickers and pedophiles ruled this world (sound at all like Epstein/status quo?). The same individuals attested their fetish for the 2nd Amendment was born from fear of authoritarian government overreach. They derided anything that could oppress them or take away freedom.
  News flash: When foreigners/Americans oppositional to your sadistic views are unlawfully arrested; when the Supreme Court decides guardrails and Constitutional law don't matter—"all Men are created Equal" with inalienable rights regardless of circumstance: Life, Liberty, Pursuit of Happiness; due process; protection from unlawful search/seizure—and we ignore this for some? That marks the beginning of the end. There is no coming back.
  And when you have a man commit a coup against the US and its citizens—clearly rigging 2020 election results not as an "official capacity" function but personal obsession—trivializing law, facts, Constitution, one another? That's the exact recipe offering oligarchs what they wanted. Unfortunately, in all your wisdom, you were too stupid, blasphemous, racist, bigoted, and retarded to understand that.
  This is the same group crying as taxed into oblivion, unable to afford life—attacking ObamaCare without recognizing it was ACA, losing Medicaid/Medicare—and now next on the list coming in 2026 (unless we change it): further gutting of Social Security, Medicaid, and Medicare.
  LET ME SPELL THIS OUT FOR YOU
  We taxpayers pay for everything—never the wealthy. We live in a political environment where politicians don't serve us; they serve special interests. We are taxed without representation.
  Name one thing outside of no tax on tips that Trump/this disgusting, sad excuse for a regime has provided you—other than rage-baiting, itching your insatiable desire for sadism, and literally sucking up to parrot their propaganda? The answer:

• A two-tiered justice system
• Breakdown of citizen's and human rights; weaponized government by and for corporations (alongside corporate socialism)
• Endless propaganda/gaslighting/lack of accountability/projection/subterfuge
• Culture war sparring in division/hate/vitriol/sedition
• Authoritarianism, governmental overreach, endless surveillance under the guise of "fighting domestic terrorism"
• Loss of rights justified by claims of "out-of-control violence and crime"
• No voice represented within government; no freedoms/rights; a rigged system where your vote doesn't matter—or you have no right to vote at all
• A president who doesn't give two fucks about you—demonstrated by "lowering everyone's taxes" while waving a $2,500 check in your face you'll never see. Instead: TrumpCare and []TrumpRx strip away pre-existing condition protections/equal premium pricing/coverage; []Medicaid eliminated; out-of-control premiums with little/no coverage; hospitals and clinics dying/shuttering rapidly in red states
• TrumpRx strip away pre-existing condition protections/equal premium pricing/coverage; [*]Medicaid eliminated; out-of-control premiums with little/no coverage; hospitals and clinics dying/shuttering rapidly in red states
• Medicaid eliminated; out-of-control premiums with little/no coverage; hospitals and clinics dying/shuttering rapidly in red states

THE CALL TO ACTION
If you've thought this through—even if it's hard to admit—recognize: The Democrats were never the problem. We told you so. Get over that ego, deny denial, reform, and join a people-powered, people-centered coalition/movement. Together we can denounce what's happening, demand equal rights and protections under law and Constitution, and demand accountability/transparency/justice for one of the most corrupt criminal enterprises in world history. Per the constitution, we must resist.

We don't accept defections to sides unless they themselves reform—admit they were wrong, get out of their own ego/denial, and work together to build a nation/world that values human dignity, rights, and freedom.

The 2026 midterms are an all-or-nothing precipice moment for democracy. We must design and build this coalition—not only to raise awareness and drive political pressure—but because if we don't rise now, history will judge us complicit by silence.

Love, peace and discernment - to you all!

It should be of absolutely no surprise to anyone, that in a post-Trump, post-truth, post-democratic USA world - that the very systems that are sworn to protect us from corruption, expose lies and corruption - independently - through a DOJ, have now been weaponized. This rogue DOJ is accusing the International Criminal Court of the very same thing it's guilt of - corruption - and asking for all 125 party-member nation-states to withdraw from it, post-haste.

Of course, none of this is true. It's simply the same playbook being recycled - over and over - anytime Trump (or the Trump-regime) is challenged on authority. For example:

The Trump administration has launched an aggressive, whole-of-government campaign to systematically dismantle the International Criminal Court (ICC), imposing severe financial and travel sanctions on top ICC officials—including the court's president and senior prosecutors—over the body's investigations into US and Israeli actions.

This was brought about due to Trump's own unprovoked war-crimes against iran, came squarely into view after he bombed a little-girl school, resulting in the deaths of over 150 Iranian girls. Imagine for a moment, if the roles were swapped, and Iran had bombed a US little-girl's school. Do you think if we had leverage to fight back (presuming iran was a super-power) and we ourselves were not a national power - that we would likely seek leverage and reparations for these unprovoked attacks. Additionally, what would the sentiments of Americans be - with regards to Iranians, if they had trespassed as an aggressor, and perpetuated the type of gaslighting that is weakness/desperation, masquerading as strength?

Additionally, we have seen these missteps and projection and acts of projection before - time and time again, immemorial, take for instance:
- Trump-Regime's rhetoric ever-increasingly sliding towards violence and becoming hyperbolic regarding their purported reports of socialism acting as a threat to this nation (intentional conflation of communism = socialism), attacking and branding the media "the enemy of the people", or attempts to brand Democrats as "very sick, twisted and evil people."

Of course, for anyone with literally one iota of braincells - even small children, presumably non-indoctrinated - would ask their parents: "why is President Donald Trump such a sick and angry man?" The answer is quite simple... because he doesn't lead through quiet, confident, and supportive strength (willing to put in the hard work to meet the needs of the people); instead, she relies on exploiting biases, fear, painting fake existential threats and framing - just about with anything - that threatens his power, or refuses to bend to his will. We have seen this time and time again, immemorial, when he sues the IRS, or sues reporters or citizens for messages that don't conform with his twisted/distorted/manipulated/exploited/corrupted view on reality and policy. After all, his administration is being lead by some of the same very people who constructed the Project 2025 playbook: which is a maximum damage/maximum reward playbook, of shaping/manipulating/controlling compliance from citizens and public servants, alike; not because their policies are rooted in strong and firm conceptual premise that is truly grounded in "common sense" - but, instead because it serves the whims of the ultra-wealthy and Trump's own role as the "universal divisor" (as he had been previously referred to accurately by the media - back in late 2016 and early 2017). The Trump-Regime and its policies are truly: anti-democratic, an example of weaponized policy and unilateral executive overreach, and complacent and complicit compliance from both the media, and public as a whole, alike. That's not to say that the public has just completely turned over and not pushed back. However, the times that civilians did push back, and his Gustapo Satanic and sadistic mercenary arm terrorized the individual states, there were examples of the price that would be paid. Payment on Death.

As a community, state, nation, culture, race and species - we must ask ourselves: what are we afraid of, when we see the color of another person's skin is not the same as our own? Is the white-washing of America that Donald Trump and his Regime have proven time and time again - that has remained a consistent focus - have anything to do with true black aggression? Or, more broadly, is what we're seeing have to do with the overblown egos, insecurities and the white man seeking to further subjugate and subvert the endowed inalienable human rights: not only under the constitution, but more broadly - as the bible would teach us?

"The King will reply, 'Truly I tell you, whatever you did for one of the least of these brothers and sisters of mine, you did for me.'"— Matthew 25:40 (New International Version)

Meaning: white Christian nationalism - dressed up in the sovereignty and authority of the purported orthodoxy, has been weaponizing religion - just as it has been weaponized by Republicans and positions of authority, from the advent of creation - till the end of time. While its bastardization and weaponization it's sheer and utter blasphemy -- "powerful" figures have often relied upon it to foster/garner authority from those who's religion easily sways extremist behaviors and further incenses religious cults.

After all, the Trump-Regime and White Christian-nationals continual likening and drawing parallel between Trump and Jesus, has been repeated... repeatedly. Why was it, that when Trump shared an AI-image of himself, with the likeness of Jesus (that Trump gaslit and deflected as "It's me as a doctor... a American Red Cross worker - because we support the American Red Cross... and quite frankly, I heal people... I heal a lot of people." Sure!? I'm sure you read that off the bottom of a milk carton, but it doesn't make it anymore true - just because you say it, or use l'air of religious dogma, authority, or the pre-text that Christ spoke to you "in a dream and said - purge the immigrants who are poisoning the blood of this country." In which, that latter quote, read a lot more like a Hitler quote (and not afraid to state that as absolute fact):

"The Jew... tries systematically to lower the racial level by a continuous poisoning of individuals." and "Blood mixture and the resultant drop in the racial level is the sole cause of the dying out of old cultures... men do not perish as a result of lost wars, but by the loss of that force of resistance which is contained only in pure blood."
These fears come from both a place of insecurity, and I argue the subjugation of the African Americans over the course of Millenia - especially the white rich man (the same class of people from yesteryear) that would barter, sell, and place monetary value on the lives of their slaves.

Even to this very day (with the Civil War having transpired over 165 years ago): some people in the American South still revere specific Confederate symbolism (spanning the gamut: from the confederate flag, to leaders/figures/effigies) from the Civil War as part of the cultural mythos known as the "Lost Cause." These figures most prominently elevated to an almost saint-like or hero-worship status.

While president Barrack Obama (who Trump continually/repeatedly/relentlessly defames/harasses/targets as a non-national immigrant (which has been entirely debunked, and Trump's hate stems from his uninformed/uneducated/ignorant and bigoted racist views), did not engage in any acts to dismantle the American South, Southern Civil War effigies and statues - as he was repeatedly accused of. Instead: the nationwide political and cultural movement to systematically remove Confederate monuments did not reach critical mass until after his term, following events like the 2017 Charlottesville rally and the 2020 protests. Furthermore, most public monuments fall under state and local jurisdiction rather than direct federal executive authority (a key right of states' rights to self-governance, that Trump continually, relentlessly, and repeatedly assails and engages in diatribe regarding; after in the past stating that he respects states' autonomy - while, at present, attempting to bypass states' autonomy and right to self-governance when it comes to conducting elections). Per the latter, why - you might ask? Because he wants to federalize elections. Because he does not respect the will of the People and Public; and if he got his way, he would stop at nothing to make his wet-dreams of stripping states of their rights, and statehood - just like everyday Americans - a reality. He doesn't respect anyone, but himself and his over-inflated ego, and self-ascribed/attributed importance. Even when in this year alone, he was relentlessly and mercilessly booed at public appearances - including the World Cup. Or, the times that he chose to force himself into the winning photos of the Fifa world cup - among many others. Or the times, that he has decided to deface American institutions, with I argue - by opinion - is the mark of the beast (especially given the symbolism of his behavior, figure, and being purported "shot" in the right ear haven "taken a bullet for this country."

This same individual (I don't say person, or human-being) - actively, knowingly, and decidingly incensed insurrectionists on J6, engaged in exploitative and gaslit phone calls with Raffenperger of Georgia, and even went so far to blackmail President Zenenskyy of Ukraine (holding back defensive missiles and military supplies/support, unless Zelenskyy admitted that he had found dirt on his opponent's son, Hunter Biden - no matter how untrue). Per the latter, more recently - we saw similar when this Trump-regime captured Moduro of Venezuela and upon Moduro's capture and subjugation - robbing him of the authority of Venezuela's sovereign law of their land (and in place, imposing ares): attempted to blackmail Moduro into admitting that he interfered in the 2020 elections. Why? Because Trump is looking for anyone to shape and support his false-narratives and dishonest discourse. He requires manufacturing/fabricating/peddling this disinformation because he requires a "benefit of the doubt", when it comes to invalidating the results of elections, and disrespecting the sovereign will of his own people.

We see time and time again, how Trump's loyalty only goes as far as their use/utility/expandability to him - as a shield - and his sycophants loyalty is about as discardable as used toilet paper, or a worn tampon. We have seen this with Pam Bondi, we've seen this during his first administration whereby fall-guy after fall-guy - too the brunt of he abuses and fell in his place.

We actually live in fairly scary times, with the mid-terms rapidly approaching. While the public may operate off a veneer of normalcy and say to themselves: there's a large blue tsunami and we're undoubtingly going to take over the house and senate and render the rest of his term into a lame-fuck presidency - I ask you to think again. First off, there's all of the gerrymandering effort. Second, 87% of elections in the past decade (or so), were elections won purely on dollar amount alone. We have the Citizens United decision, out of the corrupt and partisan supreme court to thank for that. Second - as a common theme of many of my posts, this rogue-administration has weaponized independent investigative bodies and almost near-totality of the federal government, to target, misinform, and create doubt in the hearts and minds of the American public - when it comes to the legitimacy of elections. Mind you, before Trump even won, or a single vote had even been cast.

Beginning in 2016: Trump has relentlessly and ceaselessly claimed wide-spread fraud within American elections. In a vast majority (if not 99% of cases) the claims he makes, are never subsequently backed up with verifiable fact - surrounding those claims. Now, 10 years later, however, Trump has convinced the legacy "fake news" media (and "enemy to the people") to capitulate to his narratives. Similarly, the Trump-regime, illegally and without basis (nor merit), under the authority of the federalized/weaponized FBI to seize ballots of the 2020 elections. These ballots have been seized and presumably are being saved and their "release" of "findings" of "fraud" meticulously held back as a "Trump card" of sorts - to be used to not only undermine confidence in the elections, but moreover: likely to seize ballots in these midterms. The DOJ has decidedly hired over 1000 election monitors/DOJ lawyers (and likely Trump will instruct his insurrectionist pro-nazi militia - to transition from "stand back, and standby" - has he has prior - into encouraging/incensing them to visit blue strongholds and purple states - likewise to interfere in the elections process.

Trump has already repeatedly engaged in assailing nationalized mail-in-voting, often citing (without sourcing, nor specific): wide-spread fraud in our elections and the election process. Trump himself, knows none of this is true - but not only can his ego stand to lose (and end up bruised again, as it was in 2020; and likely he will again refuse to leave in 2028 - hence the drone ballroom bunker), but additionally him and his sycophants/enablers/GOP/MAGA-death-cult - would like no lesser than to cling and seize to power, through any and all means necessary. Why? You may ask? Ask MAGA Mike Johnson when he said: "If Democrats win these mid-terms - God-forbid - they wlll investigate Trump, his family, his allies -- and over half the people in this room. That's why I am running a protection program!" MAGA Mike... a protection from what? Yourselves, or accountability - perhaps? Democrats and Biden - very well could have weaponized the DOJ against Trump - but did not. They could have tried Trump for his treasonous and seditious acts on J6 - they did not; they could have further pursued the FBI's investigation into him exfiltrating classified documents and storing them in his bathroom - they did not; they could have investigated the Epstein files and Trump's clear and evident ties to Epstein - but they did not. You see the dichotomy and disparity between Republicans actions and Democrats actions? The difference is clear as day. Democrats don't weaponize government when it behooves them. However, Democrats will - to some varying degree - investigate complaints of nature of illegalities of acts/behaviors officials have engaged in. Moreover, Democrats are not responsible for if/when the Trump-regime, enablers, sycophants, or Republicans actively choose to abuse the system. Clearly efforts, and missteps of self-inflicted nature - have occurred in the past. As a prime example of just how corrupt and a betrayal it was, but an example where instead of Democrats actively weaponizing government against Trump and his regime - with his censorship and gagging - it was the large tech giants that even realized Trump's actions on J6 - went a step too far. Unfortunately, these tech giants to variable degree, have abandoned that position - or at a minimum attempting to sway the administration to let them off the hook - by cozying up to this administration, to maintain favorable business outcomes/mergers, etc. I actually applaud Google, to a degree, that they continue to support independent media through this process - even if algorithmically, it often feels like Democratic voices are disproportionately being suppressed.

For ourselves and I encourage the ultra-wealthy to consider - what kind of future world are we wanting to live in? One where we corporations operate completely unregulated? We've already seen the consequences this regime has pushed onto air-traffic controllers, food inspectors, and many other operational sectors receiving oversight. The results haven't been pretty. Meanwhile, against the emoluments clause and creating a monopoly / cornering of the pharmaceutical market, Trump has fashioned TrumpRX.gov - in preparation for increasing tariffs on foreign produced medications (which a vast swath of generics are) and assessing a 200%+ cost on these medications come 2028. Do you think it's a coincidence... just like how Medicaid working requirements, come Jan of 2027 - will force the disabled into the untenable situation of "work 20 hours per week, part-time, while being fully disabled - or lose your Medicaid insurance benefits?" Likewise, they fail to mention that working that many hours may in fact completely disqualify them from receiving Medicaid coverage, if they earn above the established limit. Similarly, they intend on paying doctors to un-prescribe / discontinue anti-depressant medications, and furthermore the wholesale institutionalizing of disabled peoples - by forcing them out of the community and into institutions. They hope to accomplish this by ceasing care-giver payments for family members to care for their needs, as well as making it a requirement in order to receive Medicaid/Medicare - as a disabled person - that they be institutionalized in privatized facilities. Just like the prisons, I suspect this is a major money marker to the Trump family, as are the tariffs, as is the Iranian war.

It seems like we've been living in a complete lunar-alignment of bad fortune as a country, where bad is continually turning worse, and an administration that doesn't give a flying fuck about any of us, affordability (according to Trump, in a feign attempt to gaslight - "is a hoax and made up term by the radical left lunatic thugs." Dude... just stop. Your grift is very fucking annoying. It doesn't dishonor our intelligence, but the fact you peddle that BS to yourself and gaslight your delusional self into believing it - would be hilarious, given how shamelessly degrading it is - if it wasn't for the fact its causing an untold amount of damage and with the election lies - placing us upon the precipice of destroying our country (something you portended and contended would happen if Barrack Obama, Hillary Clinton, Joe Biden and/or Kamala Harris won the presidential election and you lost). You feign these existential and made up threats - all of the time - whilst perpetrating this out come - in a self-inflicted, brain-damaged manner - time and time again, immemorial.

I was listening to this when I was slowly waking up this morning. It's a hard video was a hard-listen, coming from a man that was once supportive of Trump, and later served on The Lincoln Project. Suffice to say, the video discusses a lot of the same questions I've been having regarding: how we got here, where were currently are, where we're going next, and when the insanity is going to stop.

I believe a vast majority of Americans, whether they want to recognize/realize this (or not; but do so, subconsciously), is that: this is not sustainable. This cult of personality, division, chaos, "flooding of the zone", constant fire-starting; while everyday Americans are hurting; and somehow we allowed this guy in for a 2nd term after a very evident coup d'etat against the US - really says a lot. When you combine that with congress's capitulation, lack of reigning in via War Powers Act, and MAGA Mike "The Grindr Johnson"'s constant House of Representative recesses: it's an America beyond constitutional crisis - and a country that has been rendered a complete joke - functionally, at the direct result of Trump's hand (which by the way are small)

Republicans/MAGA/GOP are absolutely freaking out, at the prospects (in the lead-up to the 2026 mid-terms) that them and their enablers: will absolutely be held to account for their overt and open corruption. Sadly, we live in a time and day - where the abuses are so overt - arising out of the top 1% of the top 1%.

MAGA Mike "The Grindr" Johnson, put it up - on full display (no framing/filtering) - of how Democrats will likely prosecute them, claiming they are in-charge and a radical Left arm that is usurping the political power in this country.

I got a news-flash for you Mike... umm.. hello? You guys have a super-majority in the government, including a SCOTUS that offers carte-blance freedom to act as freely corrupt as you choose to be; any negative outright consequences - in terms of justice, accountability and adherence (or lack thereof) to the constitution - responsibility-wise, land directly at your feet and the feet of thep president, his enablers, and allies. Furthermore, he is claiming that they - collectively - are in a massive predictiment unless they win the mid-terms. Some, including Kentucky gonressmember has gone on the record - essentially ofering up a near-identical record: we cannot/must not let Democrats ever take control over government again... otherwise, power would be held to account; they can't allow that; and moreover, Steven Bannon has already gone on record to state: "Trump is entitled to a third-term. No question. He'll get a third term and we'll see to that. We're currently in the works on working out a plan."

I have been warning for some time now, the myriad (or rather countless/relentless) abuses and strategies being employed/deployed by the GOP/MAGA parties, to ensure unequivocal win for the president and his allies - going evne so far to be open to a complete subversion of the will of the People.

With time dwindling down and the mid-terms nearing, that is why the first section I will be building out on the Kronology section of the site, relies heavily Election policy, alternating claims/narrative framing, overreaches and abuses of power, the rewriting of policy so the ultra-wealthy are entitled to a megaphone that is proportional to their pocket size, the various abuses during the 2020 elections (including, but not limited to - an active coup and seizure of power), to the various strategems currently being employed by the GOP/MAGA/Trump, and lastly in a post-COVID/post-truth/post-AI world - they attempt to pursue every facet and fashion possible to achieve their desired outcome.

This presentation by Chris Murphy deserves more attention. It points to the fact that this administration is taking advantage of the "flooding the zone" and overwhelm factor, to run roughshod over the American people. Just look at the 147 executive orders in his first 90 days.

Now this administration (or rather - its allies) are afraid of the consequences associated with this massive power-play for the ultra wealthy. As you're already aware, these included:

• "The One Great Big Beautiful Bill" which advertises itself as massive-tax breaks for everyday Americans: which it is, for the ultra-wealthy, but fails to deliver for everyday Americans. At best, it dangles a carrot on "no tax on tips".
• DOGE swoops in and exfiltrates US taxpayer information, and other PII - such as social security numbers, addresses, etc. DOGE during depositions already admits to exfiltration and sharing of this information with a "3rd party". I actually truly believe the purpose of this is so this regime can interfere in the 2026-mid-terms, and 2028 presidency - full stop.
• Skirts accountability with the Epstein files.
• Starts an entirely unwarranted war, costing American tax payers trillions of dollars; spikes in gas prices; and a bunch of false claims by Trump that "affordability" is a term made up by the "radical Left lunatic" Democrats "who hate this country" (same worn out stupid line, as always)
• Right now, we see ourselves amid a job and economic crisis. Massive layoffs due to effects post-COVID, and with advent of a post-AI world. What's worse, compounded by a "post-truthism", where corruption rans rampant, and where everyday Americans cannot afford to live and are losing everything. I can't help, but feel that all of this was engineered, as now in the lead-up to the mid-terms, they don't spend one ounce of modicum in terms of voting rights, or adhering to the will of the people. Actually, it's quite the opposite. It's all abou subverting the will of the people, subterfuge, and additional psy-ops and feigned assassination attempts on the president - so he can get his ball room.
• You know what Trump is after right now, when he makes unilateral decisions to not follow SCOTUS's few times they have ruled against him. This is beyond crisis, this is a slow eventual death of America, where we don't go out with a bang, but instead a wimper.

#ElectionWatch #ElectionIntegrity #Trump #Timeline

Not much else can be said about this... other than to say: this is by far, some of the most deranged lies, told to deranged individuals - all happening under one roof.

Some of what was discussed:

• "$5000 dividend to anyone that votes Republican"
• "I'm paying for the ballroom"
• Apparently, now we're sitting on a surplus of oil, between Venezuela (the infrastructure of which isn't even built yet and will likely take over a decade to build out.
• Apparently the left-leaning media lied when they said Trump declared the word tariff, was more beautiful than the word "love."
• Supposedly that the Iran War (which I thought the argument wasn't that it was a war, but an "excursion" - a over a 190 day excursion) will end abruptly, following their assured win. Assuredly the win is going to have nothing to do with defrauding and subverting the will of the People, through fabricated lies of there being "widespread fraud", or his gambit that USPS
• "I'm doing the weave" - where he changes the subject randomly, but then somehow - inexplicably, in brain-damaged fashion - stumbles back onto the subject. "Sir... sir... excuse me, sir - no one has a more beautiful brain and 'common sense' as you, sir - Mr. President Trump. No one 'loves' our country, more than you sir." (note: not a direct quote, but more out of the annuls of a deranged, lunatic, pschotic and drug-addled presidency).
• Of course, he couldn't help himself to bring up "Barack Hussein Obama, have you ever heard of the man?"
• Apparently, we're winning 'bigly'. Moreover, that Trump is using the tariff because apparently the costs are not passed along to the consumer... whilst simultaneously, at the same time, seeming to indicate that they are - hence the $5000 payout - that will never come to fruition. What he also fails to mention, of course - as all Republicans fail to mention - is it was the corporate sycophancy and gaslighting - that was responsible for the outsourcing and off-shoring of jobs, to begin with. These same psychotic and sociopathic corporate elites that convinced Americans of "trickle-down economics" and that "AI is going to revolutionize the workforce - and not replace them" -- is exactly the kind of broken promises and sicko kind of canary in the coal mine and luring it in to beat it, to death, is exactly the same kind of broken promises and delusions of self grandeur (along with brain damage and sadism), that's required to believe this conman trickery and BS. It's always the same story, repackaged... ad nauseam. It never matters how untrue, forced, or feigned it actually is... because the propaganda of this "Ground Hog" day on repeat, after a near decade, should render any American that's awake still... just how screwed we are. And we already recognize that even if Trump loses... the guard-rails are off and they are of course going to engage in every abject, morally and ethically depraved act possible - in the attempts to cling onto power. Just look at MAGA Mike 'Grindr me in the a$$' Johnson's comments when questioned from reporters about holding recess (and preventing release via discharge petition by Thomas Massie and Ro Khanna) to prevent and suppress the forced release of the second public release of the Epstein files. Which is to say, there's no act more antithetical to actual reality, act too morally depraved and self-serving, nor act too overtly corrupt for them to lie to the American public and engage in. That's right: they want to delay, delay, delay.... lie, lie, lie.... and distract, distract, distract - all to keep eyes off Epstein's Zorro Ranch, and the fact that: (1) reportedly several woman were killed via some sexual fetish/snuff reasons; and (2) - purportedly that men were drugged and the semen were harvested against their will. To me, that latter report sounds a whole hell of a lot like mirroring Todd Blanche's version of "justice" (and that "Trump is the law") by confusing the victims with the perpetrators and the perpetrators for the victims. Certainly, this perversion of the truth has got to be some sort of priming associated with - in the event DNA semen specimens and analysis is performed by the state of New Mexico - that there's enough priming/choreographing (and or getting ahead of the story) that they can run roughshod over the truth. I swear, it's always the same identical playbook everytime with these "people". Moreover, that they will not only do whatever is necessary to win - including act like abject fools that lie and spit in the face of Americans, but also makes one wonder if Trump's suggestions of renaming "New Mexico" to "New America" has anything to do with the autonomy and jurisdiction (or cover-up) of the Zorro Epstein ranch debacle. The reason why I believe that might be the case, could be due to a combination of them seeking to dominating the headlines/distract, and/or create the ideal conditions to take away the autonomy of New Mexico to further investigate the Zorro Ranch. After all, Trump has repeatedly claimed he has nothing to do with the Epstein files... much like he claims to have nothing to do with Russia and that Russia wasn't involved in 2016 - with engaging in election interference and that Trump knows nothing about Russia. However, the truth - juxtaposed against this idiocracy, tells a completely different story, altogether. Remember Trump has had two wives from Russia, regularly visited and hosted beauty pageants abroad, as well as begging "Russia... if you're listening, please find [Clinton's] 30,000 missing emails - I'm sure you will be mightily rewarded." Anyways, I digress, the guy is a psychotic cult-figure... and his supporters are as stupid is as stupid does... and slow as molasses falling down a flag pole in -40 F weather - which is to say, hella retarded.

I'm sure anything/everything they can do to take the attention off the Epstein files, the broken economy - while they pilfer off our democracy - is, the overall, stratagem.

Note: site is currently WIP and being built.

GOP claiming they care so much about their constituents (and not serving them nor their interest), that of course they won't be available for Trump's event next week.

Do you think that it could have anything to do with distancing themselves until the mid-terms are over - if in the event "God forbid that the Democrats take control over the house [and/or senate] that they will investigate Trump, his family, friends, allies, and half the people in this room will be investigated?" (MAGA Mike).

Hmm... I guess we'll never know, am I right? It's not like we have the 47th trying, through every means necessary to steal these mid-terms. Besides, they already know how Trump operates and how once you've exhausted your use to him, you will be discarded - post haste.

I posted a comment that brought you here... start posting - let's create truth and community. This is not a scam, it's about handing back technology to the people in a manner that is humanely designed, doesn't profit off north-stars of engagement, values veracity over virility (purely), and connection over disconnection (and the 'tangential community' offered purely from a comments section is not going to bode well for us - we must not give into fear, but remember who we are, who we used to be, and through bringing empowerment to voice... band back together to bring some much needed sanity back to public, social, societal, and political discourse and address the elephant in the room that so many have become too uncomfortable to talk about). Keep things civil... start discussions, etc. Hopefully you recognize my intentions here are pure and I'm here to innovate and pick technology back up where it was, before technology companies and companies in general decided they wanted to profit off our behavior and offer us nothing in return, aside from siloing and controlling us. This type of ineptitude, low-vibe gaslighty BS has got to stop! Does anyone agree with me?!

Not really. Cause then effect.

Just wanting to add some levity. Animals are amazing... and this one made me laugh :p

PBS lost 50 terrabytes of data, over the span of 70 years.

St. Louis public broadcaster Nine PBS (KETC) lost access to 50 terabytes of invaluable archival footage, spanning seven decades, when its cloud vendor, Open Source Storage (OSS), suddenly shut down and went out of business.

These unique files, contained historical records of the 1993 Great Flood, East St. Louis history, and local COVID-19 pandemic coverage, are trapped on physical servers inside a Denver data center operated by Iron Mountain.

Because the data center's contract was technically with the defunct vendor rather than the station, Nine PBS found itself locked out of its own history, showcasing the dangerous vulnerabilities of modern cloud dependency.

To prevent the irreplaceable files from being permanently deleted or overwritten, Nine PBS filed a lawsuit against Iron Mountain in Denver District Court. Fortunately, a judge recently ruled in favor of the broadcaster, ordering Iron Mountain to cooperate and establish a pathway for data recovery with the help of a third-party expert. While this legal breakthrough offers a glimmer of hope for restoring the archive, the dispute serves as a cautionary tale for organizations that outsource their historical memories to external digital hosts without maintaining physical, localized backups.

Make no mistake about it... anyone that lived through the pandemic and is being honest in their recollections, will attest that Dr. Anthony Fauci and Dr. Deborah Birx - were doing their part, legally, to prevent the spread of COVID-19.

As a matter of fact, back then - Trump took pride in "Operation Warp Speed", to bypass the typical 5-10-year long clinical trial requirements, and rush the COVID-19 vaccine to market and production.

While Trump originally denied COVID-19, and claimed that Kung-Flu (racist naming of the virus) was only yet another "Democrat hoax": by October of 2020 - even Trump too had contracted COVID and became very ill. In Trump's own further denialism, cameras were trained on him the night he returned to the White House, where he proceeded to look visibly winded and grimacing, as he ascended the steps; of which, he went onto potentially pass on his COVID infection to over 60 other WH staffers.

While I can agree to two critical elements, the rest are pure spectal, distraction, and histrionic and bad-faith, in nature.

• Did COVID-19, originate from the Wuhan Institute of Virology?
  Answer: while there is no direct evidence of that, some scientists notably found that:
  (1) Furin Cleavage Site (FCS) - Wuhan Institute of Virology had submitted a research proposal (the DEFUSE project) that discussed intentionally inserting furin cleavage sites into bat coronaviruses to study their pandemic potential.
  (2) Synonymous Codon Usage (CGG-CGG) - human coronaviruses rarely use CGG for arginine, but genetic engineers frequently use it in laboratory settings because it is highly efficient in human cells; which was another feature found within COVID-19 - out in the wild.
  (3) Immediate and High Optimization for Humans - some scientists argued, for a virus to pass the zoological barriers between species, it often takes time for enough natural mutations to occur, before the virus is capable of passing across specifies/zoological barriers.
  (4) COVID-19 Contained a Chimeric Structure - highly similar to a bat coronavirus (RaTG13). However, its Receptor Binding Domain (RBD) (the exact "key" it uses to unlock human cells), closely matched a coronavirus found in pangolins.
• Scientific Evidence that Supports/Suggests COVID-19 Did Not Originate from Wuhan Institute of Virology:
  (1) Flawed Engineering - a landmark paper in Nature Medicine pointed out that the virus's biological "lock and key" mechanism is highly effective, but it is structured in a suboptimal, messy way. A genetic engineer trying to design a weapon or tool would have used a known, mathematically perfect template rather than building a messy, unpredictable structure from scratch.
  (2) Lacked Typical "Engineering Scars" that would suggest it was engineered, within a lab - standard gene-editing techniques used up until that era typically left behind detectable chemical "scars," restriction sites, or specific genetic backbone vectors. None of these synthetic footprints were found in the SARS-CoV-2 genome.
  (3) Furin Cleavage Sites - while rare, do occur completely naturally and frequently in other lineages of coronaviruses.

The bottom-line is that we are already quite aware that RFK Jr. is both not a medically trained doctor, nor scientist, and that he has been continuing to run on the lie and unfounded basis that vaccines are linked to autism. That particular researcher, cherry-picked, manufactured, and spoofed his numbers in order to bias his results. Subsequently, when other peer-review scientists had asked for the original data and discovered this, his original works had been discredited with proving the basis of his theory.

Nevertheless, his confirmation bias, was picked up in the court of public opinion via means of popular talk shows. By then, this basis for mistrust by the public continued to be parroted by non-academics - and the public as a whole - and continues to spread misinformation to this very day.

I would like to conclude by adding my own personal thoughts on this. First, if you read this article carefully, you would discover that while no direct evidence seems to suggest (or point to the fact) that COVID-19 originated from the Wuhan Institute of Virology, there's an additional connection between COVID-19 and Wuhan - beyond the "wet market" origins theory. And second: we recognized that by rushing a vaccine to market, that the vaccine would not be fully vetted for its safety profile. That said, however, it was a risk that the government needed to take, to protect the public. If it wasn't for the vaccine and for society to subsequently go on to develop heard immunity: we'd still be suffering from the pandemic, to this day. Conversely, I recognize that due to the way that COVID-19 exploits the ACE-2 receptor in mammals, that we later discovered ACE-2 (Angiotensin-Converting Enzyme 2) dysregulation plays a central role in driving severe hyperinflammation and cytokine storms, particularly during infections like SARS-CoV-2. While the virus itself was a deadly virus and many healthy individuals went on to die from contracting the virus naturally, without a doubt - in a subset of the population, that dysregulation of clotting factors went on to cause cardiovascular deaths in younger populations - exposed to the vaccine.

The rest of this, with RFK Jr. stating squarely that Anthony Fauci had "hid" something... then why did he journal about it? Nothing required for him to journal about it, via government email - but, nevertheless, he did. Comparatively, Trump originally denied COVID-19 and stated squarely "it's never coming here", while failing to make an effort to have people self-isolate, or protect one another from subsequent infections. He waited until the virus had gotten out of control before acting, subsequently reacting, and originally claiming the virus was wake (and made up by radical Left lunatics. While the pandemic was undoubtingly traumatic - and an issue we still experience to this day - claiming that officials and scientists lied to the public, so they could force people to socially distance - is inacurrate. Actually, on the contrary. As it turns out, in the early days of COVID-19: miasma theory (dirty lingering air, where the droplets remained aerosolized in the air) was originally denied. That became the basis of social-distancing because it was presumed from studies in the 1950s and 1960s and fluid dynamics and presumed size of infected droplets were large enough that they would drop to the ground within 6 feet radius. However, subsequently it was an independent journalist that had discovered that the original fluid dynamics research was off by a factor of 10. Meaning: that miasma therory of virus and aerosolization of virus spread through miasma (or lingering dirty air), actually turned out to a mode of transport. That contrasts the efforts in the 1990s, where doctors said "so long as you wash your hands, you severally cut down on communal transmission of viruses". While clean hands are another factor that helps to prevent the spread of viruses, as it turns out - masks and their wearage and usage became all the more critical/paramount, to prevent the spread of the virus.

This was never about depriving people of rights, it was all about keeping the public safe: amid a virus we knew little about and where original modes of treatment - ventilator driven support - was originally adopted and became the standard. However, subsequently, doctors with time determined that while steroid medications are typically contraindicated - as they suppress immune function: in the case of COVID-19, they were a necessary and indicated tool employed, and helped to stave off further unnecessary deaths that arose as the result of mechanical ventilation/intubation alone (without the use of a steroid, to tamp down the underlying cytokine storm; which was a later discovery that saved lives).

It's not by accident: it's a design feature.

Trump: $4.2B

Joe Biden: $100M

Barack Obama: $1.6M

George W. Bush: $3.2M

So before you thank the president for not taking a salary, recognize the facts.

It's sad how much of programmed simpletons are part of the MAGA cult. Full of hate, cruelty, and inhumanity. So much so, it's quite staggering.

I couldn't express this any better myself.

Everything is propaganda - morning to night. Also, any statement by Donald Trump, contradicts itself - before the end of the sentence. He's impossible to understand - on his own terms, much less on geopolitical terms.

He's dragging down America with him. While Trump is getting up there in age and the fronto-temporal dementia is is hitting on all cylinders, unfortunately his propaganda, abuses of power, degradation to self-governance, befriending and providing comfort to enemies of the United States - while making enemies of our allies, and attacks on elections and baking corruption into our system through his cabinet members: will have ever-lasting impacts on our country, society and way of life, for without a doubt - likely centuries to come.

I agree, the time has come, he needs to be forcefully removed - ala. article IV, section II; no other method comes nearly close enough, to addressing the cancer and brain-worms that have spread over America. The deep and unhealed afflictions of the ultra-impoverished and ultra-wealthy, and the goal being to subjugate everyone else in between through gaslighting, projection and subverting the will of the people and law - truly tells us something.

It's not without a sense of irony that Trump promised that he would "drain the swamp", while bringing us the same problems he assured his constituents he would protect them from. What's worse is that he accused his opponents: first Hillary Clinton and later Kamala Harris - that they would spell the death to America - when the reality is, he was speaking more about himself.

In the wake of this propaganda, and now current attempts to rail and assail against state's right to self-govern and conduction their elections autonomously, was never about genuine concern. It was there, so he can claim wide-spread fraud (and now has seized the 2020 ballots, and seeks to manufacture it); after all Trump claimed widespread fraud in our elections before he even won the electoral college in 2016. He called fraud before even a single vote was cast. That should tell you absolutely everything you need to know.

And, right at this moment, we're approaching the countdown to the end of democracy, as Republicans/MAGA/GOP engage in illegal acts of attacking state's rights, continued efforts to rip apart the constitution and disenfranchise voters/rig the election, and engage in endless lies and propaganda - and for what? Has Trump honored his promises to his constituents on lowering prices, getting us out of endless wars? No. Instead, he continue to emotionally terrorize and antagonize, balloon the national deficit, do absolutely nothing to address the affordability crisis, focus on decadence and lavish items for himself - including an unnecessary ballroom, ripping up of the grass and Rose Garden, and anytime one of his gambits backfires in his face - in the case of Iran - blame anyone/everyone, but himself, for his own buffoonery.

May God have mercy on our souls. We as a people have gotten to indifferent, apathetic, and overwhelmed to understand the majority of society is responsible for both running society and creating the disproportionate wealth that the ultra-wealthy benefit from. They rip up the social contract and spit in the face of Americans... and my question is: if the social contract is null and void, we live in a two-tier justice system, and soon add the complete disenfranchisement of voting that opposes his will to this - and I ask myself: why as Americans are we not using our voice and lack of consent to shut this down?

I swear to God... this guy is the sickest fuck. So sadistic, so full of lies, hate, vitriol, and projection.

And just you wait... the grass he talked about Scotts is donating to the WH: just you wait - I'm sure we'll later find out it will cost tax payers.

However, perhaps more importantly: Trump is still putting on a large pressure campaign for the "Save America Act", and the "Anti-Weaponization Act" - which Trump touts as "beautiful". He goes on to improperly claim that the J6 "hostages" (aka. insurrectionist, perpetrators, and seditionists) are all "victims" of that day (mind you - entirely their own making and stupidity). Besides, he needs the J6 mafia to hassle people on election day and sew so much chaos, carnage and fear - that it will discourage and/or prevent people from voting. Moreover, I would not be surprised - at all - if he sinks ICE and the military on blue states' polling sites - claiming widespread "fraud" (because apparently he is omnipotent), along with his other sleaze-bag moves - such as trying to federalize elections and force the USPS to not deliver ballot material for distribution, or return.

Trump is quite obviously one of the sickest men in the world. He should have never been offered the chance to step foot back into the WH. That was honestly, Biden and the Democrats biggest mistake. Truly, they should have investigated his finances and followed the money on Epstein; they very well could have weaponized government to protect the public from this histrionic personality disordered, narcissist.

It is truly staggering, just the pure level of corruption and conspiracy being put forth, outside or regularity of this administration. Especially Todd Blanche's confirmation.

This is par for the course, with this regime - absolute opaqueness. They don't want to lose a vote, or a congressional seat. I would at this point, not be at all surprised, if we later find out that McConnel passed away, or is suffering from full-on Alzheimers. However, we're likely to never find that out under this current regime, because as you know... they have a patterned track record, of hiding information from the public. We've seen this with the Epstein files, with Iran, and even with Trump's health.

When will the insanity stop? Hopefully after the mid-terms. However, it's doubtful that with Trump and the GOP possessing a super-majority and with our current DOJ being captured by this regime, that will ever see the light of day. That said, all corrupt empires eventually fall. Therefore, for that reason, I'm certain historians years from now, will squarely lay out the criminality. That said, the one question that remains is: will we even have a country after this Trump regime? And how much will our way governance be forced to change, given Trump has abused the power of the presidency to such a far off degree, that we cannot operate from a position of honoring one's oath to the constitution. I'd like to remind everyone that Trump did not swear his oath on the bible during his 2nd inauguration.

While not an absolutely exhaustive list, this video should provide you critical details associated with the Trump-regime's attempts to rig/steal the mid-terms. Absolutely no option is left on the table.

In the coming weeks, I'll be putting together theunderKurrent's 1st official video, published to YouTube (as well as the Videos section), that will clearly outline the 25+ stratagems and gambits that this regime is actively utilizing to suppress the vote, undermine our elections, and breed distrust with election voter confidence.

I am not abashed to state, that this man is an absolute monster - and personally, I believe he's the antichrist.

I am not sure if this is being experienced nearly universally, or ubituitously; or such a prelude is an exaggeration - or too much of a stretch.

Let us begin, stay with me for a moment - and I promise if you'll keep reading this to the end - and what I will speak about will resonate. In the 5-30 second shortened attention-span and self/societal isolation we all sense and internalize, a volition, but refuse to speak about it, or express it. It actually serves a purpose if we validate it -rather than invalidate it.

The underKurrent
(word type: noun)
Definition: is a mood or atmosphere just below the surfaceis a mood or atmosphere just below the surface.

That exactly describes the world we live in, between those affected and those creating and fostering this environment, to manipulate outcomes. It's as if we live in two parallel realities: the reality and the anti-reality; more and more the anti-reality is being thrown onto us. It's the classic "it's not what it looks like!" (boy who cried wolf; feigning, sort of thing - that is the absolute pathetic part about this regime and its propaganda.

We all sense this silence (us intelligent, kind, caring, and justice types). Yet, there's this underlying force that permeates: our gut telling us - this isn't right, it doesn't need to be this way. And when we deny that inner voice, trust ourselves more (and one another), we ultimately lose our meaning and purpose until we cease our "inferred consent" - by recognizing the unified voice and actions of the masses - actually matter here.

As have always purported to others and myself, this: "behavior shapes outcome [...] I may have control over what adversities I may face; that said - I do have control over the way I react to them." And it's a strong important reminder that our government has been ceased and is acting out of corruption, malice and purely one of ego. Our government is further away from its people, upholding the common good, and is engaged in an insane/inane amount of propaganda, priming/choreographing events/intimidation/lies/subterfuge/subjugation/complacency and complicit in controlling outcome - by any and all means necessary. Hence why, anytime it runs into a barrier - it bypasses norms, the law, and the very nature of checks and balances. Just look at the War Powers Act and anytime MAGA Mike "The Grindr" Johnson loses control over the House, he forces an unexpected and immediate 7-14 day recess. How many days has congress actually worked in the past 18 months? I recognize they typically only serve in session for 180 out of 365 days per year. And yet, while this insurrectionist/coup/authoritarian regime literally possesses majority control/influence to pursue their agendas (via: POTUS+Cabinet/SCOTUS/DOJ) in a post-Trump/post-truth/post-COVID/post-AI/post-democratic world.

And FFS: why has no one saying anything about/challenging the people and (Russ Vought [brain-child of Project 2025], et al.) and implementation (via following "Citizens United"'s Project 2025 Playbook ™) verbatim. Descenting congressionals fail to draw attention towards/challenge the legitimacy of it, nor does the media. Besides, the legacy media is pretty well captured at this point (yes: that's right, through constant pressure and unrelenting nudges and breaking of the rules for the past decade - the Overton Window invariable certainly shifted (via the slow, steady and persistent slow-burning and destruction of rules/laws/boundaries) and has resulted in "this new normal". And, once more, I would like to remind you, this didn't happen by accident/happenstance. As a matter of fact, the "flooding of the zone" strategy (as Bannon has phrased it; and statement of unequivocal fact that Trump will be the presidential winner in 2028; Kentucky Senators and MAGA Mike Johnson stating likewise, stating: we cannot lose the mid-terms, we'll be prosecuted. They know what's up. And while everyone is sleep-walking, taking the bait, and getting caught up in the 24/7 news-cycle and failing to connect-the-dot/curate and filter/and focus on the real underlying threats - longitudinally, is what got us where we are (and likewise where we'll likely be tomorrow, unless we strategize).

If you just look at the Kronology of the Elections alone, this past decade, an overt and obvious subtext begins to form that clearly demonstrates a complete subverting of the will of the people, subjecting us to subterfuge/lies/gaslighting/projection and leaving us "worse off than we were 0-4 years prior" (depending upon the window of measurement, in relation to their inaugurations. With George W. Bush - they lied about the weapons of mass destruction, attacked Iraq instead of Iran - in retaliation, on 9/11 failed to respond (because there just so happened to be "terrorist drills/simulations that day"), and passed sweeping policies that were intended to go after foreign terrorists - not to be weaponized against its people and slowly shift to calling any one holding descent of these policies: domestic terrorists. With Republicans, it has always been about the intentional conflating/white lies of:

• "Us"/"US(A)" => them, the rich
• "Prophets" => profits
• "Praying" => preying
• [etc., etc.]

Now, with this regime's full assailing of the law, which ramped up as a distraction from their protection of child predators, human-trafficking, and Epstein files; it serves to prove they will go to any means necessary to distract, or even prevent the peaceful transfer of power in the future. Since Jan 1st 2026 to present, they have remained quite busy, including: gerrymandering, outside of norm mid-century redistricting, and coordinating and orchestrating their assured "win" in the 2026 mid-terms. Likewise, they have already virtue-signaled and their track-record is formidable; thus, we must take them at their word when they say extreme things that are outlandish, dangerous, and extreme. Since the beginning of the year, they are more and more - saying the quiet parts out loud.

Likewise, there is an atmosphere of associated stigma talking about these sorts of topics. We all see through the overt corruption, but fail to use our voice, and trust our gut to challenge it. The sooner we band together, koalesce and realize our powers in number, unified voice, and demand justice and difference - the better. We must call them out on their abuses to rig the midterms; there's a litany of things they are doing to achieve that - attacking the elections - on all fronts. They are not leaving any stone unturned. I will eventually link up a full list for your review; once you realize this, you will begin to recognize the "hidden" pattern (in reality, we're all too caught up in the intentional cultural divisions they sew, and the minutia and fragmented nature of the internet age and 24/7 news reporting - that we become overwhelmed and fail to connect the dots, nor recognize our own power is in unified voice, shared numbers together, and our right to say "no" and alter the narrative and course of everything that follows).

Dr. Jason Stoneback, an orthopedic trauma surgeon and director of the Limb Restoration Program at the CU Anschutz School of Medicine, unexpectedly passed away in August 2026.

Dr. Jason Stoneback served as chief of orthopedic trauma and fracture surgery, professor of orthopedics, and director of the Limb Restoration Program.Impact: He was a pioneer in osseointegration and limb salvage, helping hundreds of patients with severe injuries avoid amputation and regain mobility.

The medical community and his patients (including me) mourned his sudden loss in early August 2026.

I'll be attending his service:
Monday, August 31, 2026
Time: 9:00 AM
Location:George & Barbara Eidsness Arena
4817 National Western Drive
Denver, Colorado

In lieu of flowers, the family has requested that memorial contributions be made to the National Western Stock Show

... and additionally at remembrance UCHealth Anschutz on September 1st 2026, which also happens that he was born on September 1, 1978, and would have been celebrating his 48th birthday this year.

Update (09-08-2026): given the popularity of this posting, I wanted to provide an update. For anyone that missed his memorial service, a version from the 8/31/2026 at CSU Denver may be located here: https://www.facebook.com/share/v/1DsUeVguaT/ (via https://www.facebook.com/littletonequinemedicalcenter)

Dr. Stoneback, in my particular case, provided a life-saving AKA. Likewise, my personal story, strongly parallels those of many of his other patients: seven prior surgeries, over the course of an eighteen month period for a poly-microbial infection - that my other providers, just couldn't get under control.

Of course, complicating matters, was the fact I had a 10 pound metal implant, to replace my proximal tibia that was placed in 2005, under a procedure known as "limb-salvage/spiring surgery"; the implant itself I had removed with my diseased bone is known as an endoprosthesis (aka. megaprosthesis).

The endoprosthesis, that originally replaced my proximal tibia - back in 2005 - were the battle wounds of having endured through stage IIIa/IIIb, with only a ~20% of survival and a poor prognosis.

While, I beat those odds - 2015 marked the start of some chronic health issues. Around ~6 years into this process, I then had an acute infection that accompanied it. As Dr. Stoneback became my second-opinion provider, I nevertheless - had him take over my case. I still recall to this day, when Dr. Stoneback asked me "can I take your case? Can I please take your case?" By the time I was diagnosed, the infection had spread to the adjoining bone (osteomyelitis), my other provider somehow managed to fracture my femur and gaslit me, and beyond that I tried warning her and her infectious disease provider partner (who were in cahoots), that I had an infection while on IV antibiotics. While most other providers would have been seeking a way to get out of potential dangers of liability - Dr. Stoneback, instead, dove head-first - recognizing he was my last and final hope. It's rather serendipitous, when I found out after his passing and during his memorial service - that he both spearheaded and was the brain-child of the life-changing/improving limb-restoration program at UCHealth Anschutz.

During the reception ceremony, following Dr. Stoneback's service on 8/31/2026 - I recounted just how lucky I was, to have Dr. Stoneback's - competent and warm approach, during a time of real need. He was well renowned, highly regarded and well-loved. Considering this page is still receiving quite a considerable amount of traffic, I found it prudent to update this post, and share about where you can access his memorial service - in the event you missed out.

Once more, Dr. Stoneback... thank you for being gifted, for taking up the challenge of my case, and for saving my life. I am certain, many other providers would have veered entirely clear of my can-of-worms case and wouldn't have wanted to become involved. It is serendipitous, when I found out the backstory of UChealth's Limb Restoration Program and the unique contributions of Dr. Stoneback's leading and being the brainchild of the program. It only reaffirms regarding just how kind, generous, gifted and compassionate a provider he was. While his memory will live on, in each of us he positively affected - my heart goes out to his team for their deep loss as well. I am certain it will remain an important bastion to care, for complicated cases - just as my own!

PBS lost 50 terrabytes of data, over the span of 70 years.

St. Louis public broadcaster Nine PBS (KETC) lost access to 50 terabytes of invaluable archival footage, spanning seven decades, when its cloud vendor, Open Source Storage (OSS), suddenly shut down and went out of business.

These unique files, contained historical records of the 1993 Great Flood, East St. Louis history, and local COVID-19 pandemic coverage, are trapped on physical servers inside a Denver data center operated by Iron Mountain.

Because the data center's contract was technically with the defunct vendor rather than the station, Nine PBS found itself locked out of its own history, showcasing the dangerous vulnerabilities of modern cloud dependency.

To prevent the irreplaceable files from being permanently deleted or overwritten, Nine PBS filed a lawsuit against Iron Mountain in Denver District Court. Fortunately, a judge recently ruled in favor of the broadcaster, ordering Iron Mountain to cooperate and establish a pathway for data recovery with the help of a third-party expert. While this legal breakthrough offers a glimmer of hope for restoring the archive, the dispute serves as a cautionary tale for organizations that outsource their historical memories to external digital hosts without maintaining physical, localized backups.

For a man that's all about presentation...
