The president shows a unique disregard for the opinions, norms and ideals of the nation – and, for that matter, humanity
An article by Robert Reich, who really captures the basis of corruption, moral rot and decay, and the form of nihilism that had overtaken our politick.
As an author, political commentator and previous member of Clinton’s administration, he Is well-spoken and an excellently written article. While it may not the full litany and outline all of the abuses, it does hit at the heart of the matter.

A Nobel Prize-winning psychiatrist is raising fresh concerns about Donald Trump’s mental state, saying he is “more dangerous” than before. His warning comes as public skepticism grows over Trump’s...
Although the analogy of the airplane is apropos, considering that we're passengers on a plane and afraid of where the pilot is going to take us - straight into the ground.

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-wealt…

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.
I encourage you watch or scan this video. While it's absolutely heartbreaking to watch, it truly does an excellent job at presenting the facts and approach it directly, honestly and openly - rather than focusing on "balance" or "fairness". I think it's all the more important in this "new normal", where the Overton Window has shifted drastically over this past decade; where Trump's nonesense about "fake news media" and the whole-sale buyout of it and their capitulation to him (especially under threats of seizing their FCC licenses), has created a culture of complete and utter nonesense, that's equally idiotic - as it is, absolutely dangerous. In the meantime, Trump and his sycophants, enablers and cronies litterally bilk every US citizen (and moreover the world); engaging in extortion, blackmail, threats of seizure of sovereign states, etc. It's beyond insane. And the insanity only increases, as Trump's own derangement and fronto-temporal dementia worsens.
