Korruption

Released from the Democrat House Judiciary committee, 8 days before election day.

We knew this was coming when Trump said he would pardon anyone without 100 yards of the White House. This is how corruption works.

(running cover for the fact the Trump administration has ties to Russia - is my take on this... similar to how Epstein ranch had purported "extraction of semen" from "unwilling men" - which is just cover and running roughshod over a legit involvement).

...and: Republicans could possibly lose both House and Senate.

Trump and the Trump-regime would like nothing more than for you to forget the events of January 6th, 2021. Why? Because it was an example of where the now sitting president incited a mob and attempting to overturn the results of the 2020 election.

We likewise maintain a record of it. Let us not forget, as otherwise history will repeat itself - until we take the time to remember.

While the supreme court has always branded itself as a non-partisan, apological branch of government - nothing could be further from the truth, over the course of the past two years.

We have seen partisan decision after partisan decision land, that favors the Right-leaning super majority, including:

1. Abortion rights
2. Presidential immunity
3. Permitting implementation of Trump's federalized voter rolls and SAVE Act - which failed to pass in congress.

Even still, the Trump-regime has specifically pushed back, ignored, and gaslit on the ruling of SCOTUS; notably on the matters of Kilmar Armando Ábrego García's overnight/in-the-cloak-of-darkness deportation, among a few others.

Additionally, there have been plenty of cases they have entirely ignored, such as the case of the Lincoln Memorial Reflecting Pool, the Tear-Down of the East Wing, and the Trump-regime sinking ICE on blue states - among many others.

Democrats have largely remained mum - for the longest time, on the topic and merits of expanding the federal court - out of fear of pushing away voters. However, adopting that same stance of "softening" on the topic of the boarder when it came to the 2024 Presidential Elections proved disastrous and perhaps alienated some voters in the 2024 election cycle.

Here's the thing: we all should be about honoring the constitution, the law and equal application of it, and stop ignoring the glaring elephant in the room. None of what we've seen transpire in the past 11-12 years has been normal - as far as Trumpism is concerned. Furthermore, many Americans want our country to return to a state of normalcy (to its previous state), while ensuring that government is by and for the people and serves the majority's best interests - not just the ultra-wealthy.

If Democrats happen to win the 2026-midterms and then go on to win the 2028 Presidential Elections (and yes... expect Trump's denial and pushback on both), then "we the People" expect for our leaders to fight for what's right, and for our rights, freedoms, and restore justice, truth, and dignity to its people and truly restore a sense of embodied leadership through the world. Don't get me wrong, much damage has been done and there are consequences and penance due for Trump, his allies, sycophants, and anyone that has enabled for this rogue and corrupt president to running his illegal grift, anti-democratic operation, and especially the continual capitulation to Russia.

We all recall: following the 2016 elections, that our DOJ, our FBI, our CIA had independently investigated that Russia had interfered in our sovereign elections process; and yet - here was Trump on national TV saying: "Russia, if you're listening...". This is not okay and should be punished.

Moreover, there should be a widespread effort to follow the money, investigate: Trump, his allies (who financially benefitted off these abysmal economic times), Epstein, the Russia-Trump connection (undeniable), Elon's connections to Russia, investigate the enablers, SCOTUS, and retract the personhood provided by the Citizens United SCOTUS decision. The latter is truly as bastardization and oxymoron of a name, considering it wasn't about personhood of citizens, but instead about instilling personhood into the corporate world - which not only gave it a voice, but a megaphone proportional to its spending. It was the same gamification of the system that allowed Trump to win in 2016, and 2024. It's also the voice that bypasses the will of the People and setting the agenda based on monetary and corporate policies - as they relate to government. What also needs to happen is massive taxation on the ultra-wealthy and shift the burden away from those who can barely afford to survive, as well as eliminate the tariffs and do not refund the recuperated funds to the corporations - but to "we the People".

I think many Americans are sick of our lives being toyed with, acting like our lives, survival and ability to make ends meet be constantly be trivialized. Likewise, we as a people need to come together, form a community, a platform, and a shared and indelible and undeniable voice and coalition that says "no... not on our watch".

Listen, I know it feels like none of our influence and voice matters, among the endless sea of voices out there. However, it truly does matter and does have the ability to shape public, social, societal and political discourse. This is not a Left vs. Right issue... this is a Top vs. Bottom issue. The wealth disparity in this country, has only perpetually widened. Simultaneous to this, over the course of this past decade, we've watched the national debt double from $20T to $40T; a vast majority of it originating from policies of the Right (the self-proclaimed fiscal-hawks, aka. war-hawks, kleptocrats, and technocrats) and the COVID-19 epidemic. Running in parallel to these disastrous policies that are bleeding our country dry, has been one of the greatest PSY-OPs in United States history (if not world history). As a people and concerned citizens, it's time that we put down the phones (stop the doom-scrolling and short-form media), form a platform and sit down and come up with solutions and expose the truth regarding the pretextual, subtextual, priming, choreographing abuses/gaslighting/projecting/subversion that has permeated our policies and put down our regrets of the past (or worries of the future) and live in the present moment and empower ourselves.

The 24/7 news cycle is entirely too fragmented, lacking curation; the same thing can be said for social media. Gone are the days that we could simply check up on our friends; our micro-worlds have been replaced with a macro-world - with too much information, too many voices, and too many distractions or excuses for why we're disempowered. But, here's the thing... we are powerful - especially when we've been left voiceless and without a platform. That shift starts now... it starts today. We can track the abuses, maintain the record, expose the contradictions, reclaim the hijacked narrative, and restore truth/trust/dignity/transparency to our self-governance model (while also reclaiming our self-governance model).

The Trumpism cult and disinformation machine has done everything in their power to disempower us, render us disaffected/apathetic/indifferent towards our political politick, by rendering the political environment: unreasonable (you can't fight rational reason with ideologues and the misinformed); deeply foreign influenced and influence by wealthy corporate interests (and no: breaking up the monopolies and implementing heavy regulation absolutely will not kill corporate America, but may displease the stakeholders - so what? This isn't free-capitalism and laissez-faire economics, that thrives on competition, innovation and rewarding good corporate policies); a congress that has hijacked our governance model (this means goodbye to the likes of MAGA Mike Johnson - who has held the House ransom and only served the interests of Donald Trump and Project 2025's envisioning of reinventing America); and eliminate the form of nihilism of our politics by holding individuals responsible accountable (I don't care if Elon Musk has all the money in the world to slip and slide his way out of danger; and a pardon should/cannot be all encompassing for past/future behavior).

The current state of survival in America (and across the world) - as we watch fascism rise from its ashes from 90 years ago - is not only unsustainable, it's also not an accident/incidental, nor the second turning. This has everything to do with bypassing consent, manipulation, control, extortion, slander, and weaponizing government against the very people who are intended to control it, and in which it was fashioned to protect it and its interests.

It's time for this madness to stop and recognize what is abnormal and unsustainable, vs. what is normal and sustainable practices. The same thing applies to the environment. The ultra-wealthy can convince us that them paying their fair-share wouldn't make a difference, or that implementing policy to protect the environment (and therefore the planet) will have zero effect; when in reality, it's a zero-sum game. Moreover, all the advancement and promises of technology and AI should be making all of us more prosperous and productive; not a way for companies to ignore their responsibilities and enrich themselves exponentially - at the cost of the majority.

The buck stops here.

And regular contact with Vladimir Putin since late 2022. It's all starting to make sense. "Maybe I've gone too far." With what? With DOGE? "Trump wouldn't have won in 2024 without my help"?

Everything hinges on the answer to the question be "yes". I can't agree more. Otherwise this insanity will continue and enable someone worse in the future.

Go Bernie~!

It's the only way, beyond the pressure/squeeze placed on leadership, by "we the People".

Of course just like every Trump loyalist, cabinet nominee - that similarly refuse to say that "Biden won the 2020 election": you can tell when they either refuse to say it, or try to dance around the question.

This case is far more obvious though because it has Scott Bessent blinking a ton, delaying and trying to quickly think up a way to detract/distract from the question.

I'm glad all of these criminals are on film perjuring themselves - like it all doesn't matter and they have it rigged and with pardons on the way. While that might be true, I believe once we have different leadership in a position of power - we the people must demand investigations and to follow the money: the flow of money tells the complete story here and it doesn't matter if they have been "pardoned" because: (1) you must pardon someone for a crime... you cannot pardon preemptively; and (2) by following the money we'll discover high level of corruption and crimes they wouldn't even dream of reaching the discovery process.

In terms of where the money should go: it should flow back to the American people, and to reinstate the programs which we pay for, but have been liquidated. Americans are hurting, and these criminals will one day need to be held to account. Scott Bessent just so happens to have the same surprised look: a popsicle has when it is having its stick inserted into it; which is one part pleasure, one part comedic - in his own sadistic twisted brain. The math doesn't math and he knows it; and he can cut the sophisticated, up tight and perpetual "retentive" look and smirk on his face.

I couldn't agree more. Just the other night, Trump suggested Iran attack California.

Trump isn't stupid... he knows what he is doing when he primes and says "a midterm surprise". Look at what happened in 2024 with the election results. Still hard to imagine those results were even real and not engineered - given Elon's involvement.

We the people can only take so much of this gaslighting abuse before we say enough is enough. It should begin with the unification of our voice and protesting and proceed from there.

Glad we have another sane on in this world that sees it and calls it out exactly for what it is... rather than what it isn't and what these sick AF supporters and sycophants attempt to rewrite J6 and history as.

God bless these justices, speaking up. I know they try to remain "neutral": but, remaining silent while the constitution and our democratic process is being dismantled is legal, constitutional and democratic malpractice.

No one, and I literally mean no one - other than the president and this administration: is responsible for their own self-inflicted injuries, via abuse of power.

Personally, I think a great deal of hard-working Americans, are sick and tired of the status quo, on top of adding insult into injury - the blatant disregard for law, monopolies, antitrust violations; and certainly since the start of Trump‘s 2nd term: the Proiect 2025 agenda, trivialization of truth, weaponization of government, tax breaks for the rich, lack of response in our current affordability-crisis, whilst simultaneous gaslighting that American’t has never been stronger (its people, never happier) - while forcing antithetical “truth” anti-reality, down the throats of millions, whilst being outwardly and overly corrupt and repeating the same forever-war-cycle we saw with the lies of 9/11, and betraying our allies, in this process.

These seemingly “populist” movements, and a surgence of authoritarian, and fascist takeover in America, does seem to arise from a legitimate want from the American public. Rather than capturing the vote through legitimate, logical and persuasive appeal: it obtained it through false-promises, say anything and do nothing (or opposite), anything/everything to win, with zero accountability. However, once more, it went a step beyond that, by launching us into an illegal war, has continually in-bad-faith - subverted the will of the people, and even now (now that Trump is becoming ever-increasingly deranged and desperate): telling his supporters to vote multiple-times (via multiple methods of voting). This is under the hope that if his efforts, convincing allies and sycophants “to cheat like hell” and having his supporters swear their oaths ”to cheat in the midterms” (by casting multiple votes), that this will engineer the sort of fraud, he could then use to pretense (and support his claims) of rigged/unfair elections, muddy up the waters and sew enough chaos and mistrust in our elections, it would naturally undermine the validity of elections, and his mind - warrant a federal overhaul. In the meantime, however, behind the scenes him and his enablers/allies/supporters are leaving no stone unturned, in the effort to cheat/rig the 2026-midterm, and then likewise… if there has been a massive blue-wave and all the pollsters (even Right-leaning) have indicated Democrats are likely to take over the house and senate (perhaps, even with super-majority): as MAGA Mike Johnson and Steve Bannon have already pretensed - a lot of Republican representatives and their enablers, will be going to jail. And I must add… rightfully so. This is what happens when you reduce the presidency and congressional representation, to only serving the needs of the corporate lobby, foreign sovereign interests, or when the government is fashioned - purely for the purposes of the grift, price gouging consumers, engaging in illegal wars and corrupt acts, and then acting unapologetically corrupt and being overt about it. While I am certain, come early 2026, the corrupt powers that be that have captured our way self-governance, had gotten away with a rather relentless litany of abuses in 2025 (and with the Epstein debacle, devolving against them): considering all they had gotten away with and considering they were losing with the public, that were throwing anything and everything (including the kitchen sink) at the wall - hoping something would stick. Likewise, as Americans were losing their houses and properties due to foreclosure, and simultaneously organizations like Blackrock and Trump’s allies - seizing them up at firesale pricing (and apparently simultaneously preparing for dooms-day: between the bunkers the major platform CEOs and tech giants were building, the smoke signal of a potential geopolitical unrest, the wholesale implementation of the surveillance state - between surveillance drones and Flock cameras and AI integrations into all major databases and consolidation of such information, and the overt signaling by the oligarchs and kleptocrats -”you will own nothing and be happy”: that clearly none of this messaging went over well with the public.

Through a combination of weaponization of government, unilateral over-reach by executive branch, let alone the overt signaling-reach by DOJ and even some Right-leaning state governments and mid-decade gerrymandering - demonstrates that likewise, there has been an effort to sew fear, paranoia, and distract from the actual threats (too vs. bottom), rather than one another (left vs. right).

The truth is, the negative public sentiment is justified and never has never been clearer. Likewise, Trump and his administration’s - along with GOP/MAGA congressionals - goal of rendering politics so noxious, toxic, and unable/unwilling to work for the American people, while the federal government murder’s it’s civilians in cold-blood (amid a cold winter), amid forcing its policies down the throats of its constituents (most MAGA/GOP congressionals: now avoiding town hall meetings - altogether), and other illegal acts like MAGA Mole Johnson calling extended recess to avoid discharge petitions calling of votes for Epstein files releases, or to avoid permitting a new Democrat from being sworn in, and even instances of Trump and his administration - ignoring a definitive ruling and orders from SCOTUS about returning Garcia (sneaking him onto an overnight flight, claiming they could not return him, etc.)… the policy isn’t an accident and is always the same. Ever since SCOTUS’s teeing-up of Trump v2.0 through permitting Trump absolute immunity for “official acts” (whatever the hell that means… and likely, whatever they want it to mean): we’ve never seen so much corruption, or in-bad-faith actions from our government prior. Now Trump wants to decry that the legacy media has been weaponized against him, and it’s not fair - because while a vast majority of legacy media had capitulated to him, a few bastions remain that refuse to capitulate, pose some hard and difficult questions that forces him to respond without his gaslit script, and now his efforts to ban MSNOW, CNN and Politico from the White House — is yet again, a clear and flagrant violation of the 1st amendment.

Trump was claiming the White House was his… until amid the Freudian slip-up, he said “the White House is my… the people’s house”. Since then, Trump has gone on to say the White House is “very special” and claims he is protecting our country from communism and socialism, and that the legacy media has been weaponized against him. Yet, all that’s happened, is his actions are becoming ever-increasingly corrupt, illegal, and he’s being called out for it. Just because the man is deranged, unable to get everyone to capitulate to him (including his efforts with USPS and SCOTUS “they’ve changed since appointing them”): without a doubt, this is becoming ever-increasingly more deranged, desperate and dangerous - as Trump, his allies, sycophants and MAGA loyalists: will leave no stone unturned, in the efforts to cling onto power. Truly we’re seeing a repeat of the kind of dangerous and deranged efforts we saw with the events of J6 - hence why Trump really wants that $1.776B slush fund, and to grant him and his family absolute immunity for skirting tax law, both for past and future events. If that doesn’t tell you anything about presumed guilt, then I don’t know what will.

Whatever the case, unfortunately his efforts to screw over the everyday American, and subvert the will of the people and rule of law - is far from over. When Trump loses, instead of acting like a normal person, nursing one’s wounds, admitting fault, doing better, moving on, and attempting to win voters over with actual merit — instead: he is bound and determined to make things as messy as possible, likely engage in ever-increasingly illegal acts (or put up others to do so, and promise them a pardon), and in doing so, weaken American, our alliances, image, and influence. He can continue to falsely claim that America’s reputation was ruined by the likes of Obama or Biden; but the counter-reality exists that actually, under his leadership both from 2016-2020 and 2024-present: that our country has never been more insecure, unsafe and the world geopolitical tensions have never been greater. Likewise, Trump, his administration and the GOP - while holding a super majority in government: would love to distract from their promises and responsibilities to the American people, that all of these bad economic times, Iran war outcome, gas prices, affordability and rather fucking insane/batshit crazy policies and lack of jobs, land squarely on their lap. After all, they were the one’s that purportedly implemented massive tax relief to Americans (none of which is felt because it disproportionately benefits the ultra-wealthy); likewise - they were the ones that gutted Medicaid and the ACA (leading to many rural hospital closures, let alone forcing many Americans in financial need, to lose their healthcare); they were the ones that created a new global conflict, while covering up for pedophiles, rapists, and Epstein co-conspirators and enablers (while Trump’s name was redacted over 1M from the files, and where images of Trump were released, only to find that released evidence flagrantly removed/redacted) - supposedly for their self-purportedly “most transparent administration in the history of this country”; they continually blame Democrats and media sources - because their overt and illegal actions - that are against the law - are repeatedly called out; likewise, they are the ones that want to decry that there is mass-fraud in elections, how much better things have been, whilst simultaneously JD Vance begs for a second chance and Trump promises $5000 if Republicans maintain control over the house and senate and likewise encourages his supporters to engage in the very same voter fraud, he purportedly is so against - thus engineering a fraudulent outcome, he hopes to achieve - so he, his party, enablers, and Epstein class: all can run roughshod over the American citizen, fail to pay taxes, subvert the law and our rights to vote, and attempts to condense and consolidate power to the executive branch (by disrespecting the constitution and states’ rights, or even for USPS - to not engage in partisan antics).

The bottom-line, is a loss is well-deserved; not only that, but for Democrats to clinch a super-majority. And any further attempts by this administration to engage in subversive efforts that violates the constitution and rule of law, should promote the public to resist such efforts. Democracies are inherently fragile and Trump and his enablers, seemingly worked to ignore the checks and balances on power, while robbing the last bastions protecting democracy, such as: constitutional law and rights, lower courts, states’ individual autonomy, and - at least for now - SCOTUS: as the last defenders of democracy. Democrats have done their part to block a many things. However, that said, I’m tired of hearing the false-equivalency made that Democrats are just as shameless as Republicans. Wrong. That said, however, it will be up to the people to maintain pressure on Democrats to avoid a “status quo”-type response, should they be offered the chance and be positioned, to respond to attempting to fix the damage caused, by a form of governance and governance type that we the people never asked for; however, all the same, it’s time the American public start using their voices and become involved in this political process, if we ever hope to recover from this era of high-crimes and corruption that has nearly taken our democracy along with it.

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.

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.

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.

Speaks for itself...

"Truth Social" - has got to be one of the biggest misnomer, oxymoronically named platforms in existence. Trump developed the platform, following his censorship - following him incensing violence and subverting the will of the People on January 6th.

Likewise, it's no accident that Trump wants to rewrite what happened that day, by claiming "patriots peacefully protested" and were "treated unfairly" and somehow we "hostages", when they perpetrated violence and acted out an insurrection to intefere with the certification of the results of the 2020 election.

Likewise, it's no accident that every single one of Trump's cabinet members, when going before congress to be confirmed, refuse to answer the basic - and ubiquitously understood fact - that Biden won the 2020 presidential campaign.

Why, you ask? Simple. Keep the lie going, so it can be used for later. Much like it's been absolutely crickets regarding the 3/4 states that had the 2020 ballots illegally seized by a captured and corrupt DOJ. Why no revelations yet? Simple. They are waiting to strategically claim wide-spread voter fraud - even though the chain of custody of the evidence has now been compromised, in a manner that we cannot trust whatever "revealatory findings" they subsequently will pontification upon, either before, or following the Nov 5th 2026 mid-terms.

What's worse, is the abuses don't stop there. Trump is assailing states, for conducting their own elections, or states' individual rights to self-govern. Why? Is it because there's truly some grand conspiracy against him? Wrong. No it's because he and his crony enablers in congress and SCOTUS, are enacting the Project 2025 playbook, and they recognize they have been overt about this corruption not only since Trump was inaugurated for a second-time on Jan 20th 2025, but especially starting in early 2026 - where he has engaged in unprovoked and illegal aggression against Iran, launched us into an illegal and costly war, not to mention that that the rich and powerful have been saying the quiet parts out loud and being overt with their corruption.

This sits in stark contrast to what we've actually been witnessing these past 18 months. A massive blue wave has been building, during this runoff elections, whereby disproportionately - Democrats have been winning historically red districts. And yet, they would lead us to believe all of this is happening not due to the self-inflicted damage caused by abuse of power, but because somehow Trump was wronged in 2020, and now is about to be wronged in 2026. They will accuse Democrats of being extremists, when it has been Republicans that are the ones who are engaging in illegal mid-decade redistricting. This is not only for the purposes of seizing and clinging onto power, but - perhaps more importantly - because they know that justice, accountability and investigations are going to be launched into their illegal behaviors and activities. They know it, and we know it.

One main aspect of the under Kurrent (that we all sense, feel, and holds a smoldering dread in our hearts), is that:

I can feel the pressure, the dread, and the silence all coalescing and building. Outside of forcing oneself into being, completely and utterly ignorant of politics, choosing to look away, or being quite literally too retarded to deny what's happening.

Here's the deal: this MAGA death cult, has without a doubt, fractured. It's a movement, that combines literally all of the worst of humanity and the human-condition, and tightly rolls it into one. The embodiment figure of this movement, befittingly, consists of what some would argue - is Satan himself. The sadistic pleasure these "leaders" and supporters derive in seeing people suffer, and denying truth - when it's evidently extremely hard to pretzel around - has nothing to do with woeful ignorance. No. Instead, I argue, they know exactly what they are doing, and how they are using their ego, their past subjugation and oppression, and fully intend to harness, channel, and direct this dark energy through manipulation, control, gaslighting and projection.

Per that latter point, the Overton Window has literally shifted so far into the realms of right Extremism/fascism/emotional (and sometimes physical) terrorism, that the old GOP's hard-line extremism on this spectrum, would read: prioritizing big business and special interest, among the masses, while actively avoiding self-reflection, or a greed (and void) so insatiable - that they will stop at nothing (even if it means destroying the very fabric of society), to seek ultimate control, rule, power, subjugation, and subterfuge.

Right now, their policies are so fringe, so anti-democratic, and so focused on ignoring the constitution and rule of law; whilst simultaneously, actively admitting to their crimes and seditious acts, out loud.

You might then be asking, what is the late-game stratagem, in a game of Monopoly - where we're all one proverbial dice roll away from losing all material security and safety: what is a society, that hinges our future on AI, the automation and anti-humanitarian (and anti-humane) age, in which we live? It's clearly projected into becoming a zero-sum game, where we all lose everything, and where attaining a living wage is so rare and places us in positions with employers - that demands 50-60 hour work weeks - in order to handle the basic necessities associated with upholding one's livelihood.

On top of that, we have a disillusioned group of 20 and 30 somethings, who are caught up in this perpetually cut-throat, disaffected, impersonal process - of reaching out and demonstrating vulnerability, honesty, and passion - yet, these same "hiring teams" are so disaffected by the world, that they unwittingly become part of the problem - and ultimately make things worse.

Nevertheless, it's a very serious and burning question, that I think we can all sense and feel. The United State's economy, is propped up upon a international currency - the USD - that's experiencing out of control inflation, unsustainable compounding and composite - record breaking profits, and an economy that relies nearly solely on the outcome of this unprecedented AI experiment, that will ultimately shape (and hijack): public, social, societal, philosophical, and political discourse and order.

The biggest strength of a Democratic Capitalist society, was the ability to: build, design, innovate, transform, compete in a laissez-faire ("Let it happen", in French) economic society. Even the word economic, means "head of household". To have a thriving economy, one cannot simply measure the "successes" - which are often either Trumped up lies (pun intended), or push their workers to their breaking point. I would classify the current political and economic conditions are ripe with exploitation.

The way I see it, there are three fundamental problems with current system (where defects are main features):

• A free-market can only exist when there is truly competition within the market. Our current market, is whole-sale owned, by Blackrock, Vanguard, and State Street. This means, that when you go to the grocery store, nearly 90%+ of products on the shelf, are all owned, by one another. This creates a system where price-gouging (Trumped/chalked up as "inflation", comes into the picture). Taking a step back for a moment,,, ask yourself - "what is inflation?" Likewise, what's "an affordability crisis", Perhaps the more important question we should ask, is why is the richest and most prosperous country, in the history of the world, $40T in debt and climbing?
  What is inflation and how does it come about? The answer: when the ultra-rich sequester money and cozy up to politicians and place themselves as close as possible to the money-printing apparatus (like Elon Musk - for instance has), or you own all of the competition - it creates a scenario where all money is invariably siphoned upward. As you may, or may not know: the only way new money can be minted, is in the form of government grants, and relies on the bond market. Other countries buy up our debt, with the promise of making money on interest. Simultaneously, at the same time, we have characters like Trump himself, that only paid $700 in taxes in 2017 and $0 in taxes in 2016. The rich will set there and gaslight you into thinking that if they paid more taxes, it wouldn't make a difference. Au contraire. Their taxation would pay for a livable middle-class wage, and social safety nets - as they were intended.
• Through special interest groups, and lobbying - large megacorporate conglomerates have merged, in recent years, defying anti-trust laws and their purpose. The natural consequence of allowing two major competitors to merge, and this whole-sale consolidation of the market, means companies are free to enegage in anti-competitive practices, including price gouging. Simultaneous to this, we're being told the economy is the best it has ever been - even in light of major unemployed issues that have persisted and have further surged. It should be illegal, for instance, for companies making record profits each quarter, year after year, to be permitted to engage in widespread layoffs. Yet, between the corporate world and government - that's exactly what we see. We see companies that are price-gouging post COVID-19, wracking up prices,, and acting in anti-competitive ways. Now, we have the real brainchild of this dystopian feature - Russ Vought - the head of Office of Management and Budget, literally in control of overseeing both governmental spending, as well as the internal anti-trust group. Russ, only serves one master, either himself, or Trump. Much like many Trump's cronies, when they go before congress, continually say: "I work for the president", only to have Democrats correct them and say "No sir, you're not only wrong, but -moreover - I don't like what I'm hearing from you." You will notice, whether it be Russ Vought, or Todd Blanche, or the multitude of other confirmed cabinet members - they never correct themselves. Likewise, we have a corporate America, that only serves one master, the stake holders - above all else. Such a system is not only unsustainable, but moreover, it's corrupt, misanthropic, undignified, and inherently inhumane. I'm tired of everyday Americans, playing squarely into their hands, saying things like "it's just business", and "don't take it personal". Did you know, companies can be ran, however they so desire, and one such way - is investment into your people, and retaining talent. That version of events, doesn't require unwarranted layoffs, all to please the stake-holders and achieve the unsustainable effort of "record profits", "quarter after quarter", and "year after year". The other pattern I notice is the more ruthless, inhumane, curt, and ignorant one is - the more successful they become. We are literally living in a time, where - as a society - we collectively normalize this behavior, when it's antithetical to a version of a world that is just, humane, and a society and democracy that cares for its people - and has got its back. On the contrary: starting next year, they will require all Medicaid recipients to work 20 hours per week. Mind you, some people possess a level of disability - so great - that such news of further Medicaid cuts is literally signing a death sentence to the disabled. This was never about actual concerns of "waste, fraud, and abuse" and instead, has everything to do with corporate America, bilking the public of our social support systems and structures, while engaging in the same kind of "waste, fraud, and abuse" they claim to be stopping. Have you ever noticed no follow-up, or details on the supposed, or purported "waste, fraud and abuse" they headline?
• With the horrendous job market combined with a job seeking culture that continually engages in inhumane acts, when it comes to their candidates, we have essentially created a job market that favors corporate America. Gone are the days that one's credentials could easily land people in the door. Instead, these hiring managers, being disaffects - like the rest of the American public - and super afraid of losing their jobs: are now tasked with approaching the hiring process in undignified and inhumane ways. This includes, lack of follow-up, mixed messaging, and broken promise after broken promise. "You'll hear back from me next week about taking you to stage 2 of the hiring process." Not only does the follow-up never happen, the selection process whole-sale discards the rejects, offering absolutely zero feedback. Hitting at the real heart of the matter, is asking the basic question "what is the long-game" strategy and gambit of this rogue regime, and it favoring the ultra-rich capitalists? When you intentionally undermine job reports, based on fact and statistics, and the layoffs continue - they are attempting to render the public, isolated, scared, alone, and hapless and helpless. And guess what, it's working? If they have 10-20% of the population so desperate for work, foreclosing on their mortgages (creating a fire-sale for the ultra-wealthy), and an economy where no one is able to afford their over-hyped and marketed products: then how are they expecting for such an unsustainable system to support itself. They have continually proven, they are trying their best, to crash the economy into the ground. Meanwhile, snatch up decades worth of effort to own a home, strip it away, and steal it from the public. Personally, it's my belief they actually want to crash the economy, because they can afford to weather it... we on the other hand, cannot.
  In the lead-up to the mid-terms, they want us paranoid, scared, helpless, voiceless, intimidated, and fearful. Why? The answer is simple. When you directly attack the ground on which people obtain their security, not only are people more likely to purchase items they cannot afford (out of desperation that it will address that void in their life, hence marketing),, but additionally, it makes people more compliant towards a mid-terms where they are focused so much on their survival, there's no real way to fight back.

To conclude, I believe we all deeply sense something's wrong and all possess an underkurrent (undercurrent) and dread to everyday living, that it makes it not only more difficult to live, it makes it all the more difficult to function. Per Maslow's hierarchy of needs, when you take away the base support structures of a functioning society, you create a public that's desperate for any/all support. They want the public inundated, distracted, engaged in senseless culture wars, scapegoating, and desperate and reliant upon a corrupt system - that has no real interest in supporting the everyday, hard-working,, American. This dehumanization process is rich and ripped in marketing, disinformation, distraction, subjugation, oppression, and continual gaslighting, projection and subterfuge. Meanwhile, they are doing everything in their power to rewrite history, our constitution and strip and disenfranchise the public when it comes to voting, and creating such a far-off toxic political environment, that everyday people will become overwhelmed - and choose to ignore the elephant in the room.

We're beyond a constitutional crisis. We're straight on our way, to full-blown authoritarian dictatorship. Especially, with a regime so unpopular, that they're solely focused on assailing and laying siege to our voting rights. You can tell that they're winning, when they say the illegal acts, out loud, and prime/choreograph/normalize their next move. If that doesn't sit right with you, your heart, and are tired of sitting back in horror, abandoning coalition, action, and using one's voice - then by default, you're offering your "inferred consent." Just look at Mitch McConnel: likely too sick to serve, or potentially dead. And yet, this regime will hide that fact, out of fear of loving a vote. The fact they are so outward and overt with their intentions, especially moving into this year, should tell you everything you need to know. They already have a plan in place and are directly acting upon it.

This means, if you simply think we can just show up and show out on November 5th, 2026 - and all of a sudden, all of our problems will magically go away - you're wrong. While I personally hope that I'm wrong about this, I strongly and intuitively know: judging from the results of the 2024 being highly suspect and suspicious, and Trump playing the Trump-sympathy card with his faked assassination, engaging in a coup and becoming a 34-time felon that subsequently went on to win literally EVERY swing state - that they already have the system rigged. Not only that, they are taking collective action, right this moment, to undermine state's autonomy and rights when it comes to conducting their individual elections, spreading misinformation and fear of the ills of socialism (God forbid we live in a society where we care for one another), and attempting to ban and put into place a myriad of roadblocks when it comes to voting. I suspect, polling places will experience a great deal of disorder, harassment, and violence. Likewise, they will instruct the USPS to reject delivery of ballots, attack ballot boxes, and call in false bomb threats. They are truly a one-trick pony.

I believe MAGA Mike Johnson, said it best, when he said "If Democrats win the mid-terms, they will investigate Trump, his family, his allies, his friends, and over half of the people in this room. I run a protection program." This quote was very telling, because why is it, that Trump is forcing the "Antiweaponization Act/Fund" to pay insurrectionists for their acts on J6, pardoning all of them, while likewise rendering themselves immune from any future IRS investigations. Could it be, that engaged in illegal acts? Capital One, seems to think so, when they shutdown over 300 of the Trump-regime's accounts, over suspicion/finding of money laundering. There's nothing inherently illegal, or unjust, with investigating the actions of a corrupt family and regime. Pam Bondi might disagree though, and she said "Trump is the law."

What deeply underscores this whole debacle, is the ultra-wealthy's insatiable self-destructive greed. While the rich don't feel like they rely on society, or need society - they forget that Americans live by the social contract, while the ultra-wealthy plot and scheme in every which way, to render themselves immune from such contract. Why are the ultra-wealthy, so focused on building bunkers? Why are they scared of the American public? I think the answer is clear: their own behavior tells us a story about them. Meaning: it's entirely possible that they have engaged in illegal acts, and are acting entirely complicity with the assistance of this corrupt administration, to refashion society - in their vision. Their vision is one of apocalyptic return of Jesus, combined with 1984, A Hand Maid's Tail; meets: The Iron Heel, Jennifer Government, The Space Merchants, The Plot Against America, and Parable of the Sower.

None of this is normal. We are bound by the constitution to use our voices, coalesce and resist the illegal actions of an oppressive regime. The only pushback to a fully captured government and SCOTUS, now lies in the hands of its people, and local state governments, resistance by the lower courts and their respective autonomy. Why then, are we buying into the continual 24/7 news cycle, social media doom-scroll, rage-bait, and sit back and watch our democracy slowly wither away and die? Why aren't the people using their voices? Why are they not rejecting the algorithm, the siloing, the subjugation, the control, manipulation, programming, and marketing?

That's why theunderKurrent.com was created. We are an crowd-sourced, people-curated, democratic independent news media platform. Through research, timeline, and exploring patterns of subtextual and pretextual abuse - together we explore what's lurking beneath the surface. We encourage active public, societal, and political discourse. Our values on truth and fact, are non-negotiable. We both detest and fully reject, any attempts to be manipulated, controlled, or gaslit - on the actual state of reality. Moreover, we recognize the lack of curation and community, is exactly what got us here. Therefore, snap out of it, join the community, and express your first amendment rights. While none of us individually may be able to set the social prerogative, together we can shape the narrative and the outcomes. However, it requires us to be involved, focused, and dedicated to a better future ahead. To achieve that, we must expose the exploitation, lies, and deceit - of an out-of-control and rogue administration. I believe together, our collective voice, will create an indelible effect, in the lead up to the 2026 mid-terms; and moreover, better ensure accountability, justice, and truth prevail. While lies may have won the battle, together and with truth - we'll win the war. Don't give in to the distraction, paranoia, or fears that justice will fail to prevail. Together, we can denounce and reject their lies, outright.

The ancient Greek philosopher, Aristotle, once famously stated in his triste "Politics" that: "man is by nature a social animal," adding that anyone who lives outside of society by choice is "either a beast or a God." We have the ultra-wealthy that choose the way of the beast. Through love, accountability, justice, and holding the record - let us live and love without labels and recognize our current living conditions is no accident, but the direct result of greed, corruption, and capture by the ultra-wealthy. The choice is yours.

Speaks for itself...

This is the basis of theunderkurrent. Literally, the worst of the human-condition, is wrapped up in current "leadership" - while everyday Americans, the citizens and people of their respective sovereign nations suffer and are subjugated equally - if not worse (in some cases) - then the perceived enemies, paint to be the real enemies. In doing so, we're feeding right out of the hand of self-embodied Stockholm syndrome. While some elements of the MAGA movement have woken up to the current administration and their ruses, are all misdirection, lies, and corruption - a subset to the day, rather inanely and insanely - still support it.

What we fail to talk about, or speak upon, is the MAGA movement was born in suffrage. The poor conservative base, after being subjected and disenfranchised by the system - for decades: finally had a "strong man leader". This supposed "strong man leader" has done nothing more, than to enrich himself, his allies and cronies; at an enormous cost, to everyday Americans. This administration alone, is projected to eclipse $4T in debt, by the end of this administration (if that day actually ever comes). In the meantime, they will do anything and everything to engage us in illegal wars, and state-funded terrorism around the world; while pretending their self-righteous actions and hypocrisy, somehow makes this world a safer place. In reality, it's quite the opposite.

This is a somber and sobering video to watch. Nevertheless, I suggest you watch it. Sometimes it's best to take it in, accept it, so we as a society - can decide on what's next. I'd of course, would be remiss, if I didn't mention that everyday Americans are being targeted, the constitution is being squarely targeted, and right now - the powers-that-be, are stopping at nothing to rig the mid-terms, all future elections, and seize absolute control and authority. Very little is holding all of that at bay, beyond the autonomous and sovereign rights of the individual states, lower courts, and us. With less than three months until the mid-term elections, I encourage all of you, to remain involved, present, and searching for community. If you're feeling alienated, alone, scared, mad, angry, and disillusioned - that's valid, that's normal. That said, this platform was specifically designed with you in mind, to express our kollective underkurrent voices, and rekindle much needed kommunity, amid a: post-Trump, post-COVID, post-truth, post-AI, and post-democratic world. Join us, join the conversation, and let's reshape the hijacked media and societal discourse, reclaim our voices, and take our power back. Your kollective involvement, and shaping societal discourse, amid a sea and array of endless voices and unifying our voices, is all that stands in the way from bull-blown rise of authoritarian dictatorship and subjugation.

For "the most transparent administration in our nation's history" and claims the information being provided to the press are false, while referring to them as "leaks": should tell you absolutely everything you need to know about a government that's been fully captured.

While the Trump-regime is all about presentation; sadly it has zero substance and integrity to back up its actions, nor claims. Moreover, the United States is literally the weakest it's ever been. This undeniable and irrefutable fact, is borne of single-handedly the most corrupt administration of modern times, within the developed western world. In the meantime, both Americans, and the world, continue to suffer immensely from this domestic terrorist organization that spreads abuse, intimidation, suppression and oppression. This is simply unacceptable.

All of us, as Americans, should recognize the importance of using our voice, denouncing their actions, and continuing to elucidate upon these subtextual and pretextualized truths and abuses. While I recognize at times, it feels a problem too vast, too inundating and too great to handle. However, amid all this, I am confident we possess much more power and numbers, than we actually realize.

Notice his freudian slip of tongue here? I certainly did. "They could try to enforce... it... uhm." Oops, you said the quiet part out loud... moron. Now the boss is going to be very mad!

Here's a direct link to jump the the exact timestamp of this interaction. Pretty damning how he stops himself mid-sentence.

It seems insane to have to even go here, but this is just an example of how compromised the GOP actually is; congressionals only flex and offer accountability and leverage, after they've been ousted.

The fact that we need to have any discussion about this, after Trump's attempted coup on the capitol on J6 (which was certainly not an official act), is brain-damaged. Trump care only about himself, and about his unchecked level of power. He never intends on ever stepping foot from the WH, ever again. And "quite frankly", given the GOP's brazen enablement, corruption, and creating this monster - they can't afford a version of the world, likewise, where subsequent investigations, see the light of day.

This is the most corrupt administration in the history of western democracy and not only does it make look America look shamelessly weak (like TACO Trump and his party are), but it further underscores that we're the weakest we've ever been (as a country) and demonstrates that truly democracy is on the line in these upcoming mid-terms.It seems insane to have to even go here, but this is just an example of how compromised the GOP actually is; congressionals only flex and offer accountability and leverage, after they've been ousted.

I haven't heard the term antitrust, in nearly ~25 years - when it was in vogue and there was a movie, by the same name.

Since then, however, the guard-rails have been systematically removed. We truly live in an age of crony capitalism, where pay-to-win within policy and government is the norm. Just look at the Trump Gold Card, or TrumpRx.gov, for instance. Yes... you've read that right: TrumpRx.gov. This means that Trump is using the federal .gov Top Level Domain, which is reserved for governmental use. This obviously goes against the emoluments clause, of a president to not make money off of their position as an appointed federal official.

And yet, Trump has for years been saying, he's going to reduce the cost of prescription drugs. Now he has teed-up for 2028, to issue a blanket 100% tariff for all imported medication (which is nearly all of it). Do you see where I'm going with this?

Weakening Medicaid, Medicare, Social Security and all entitlement programs, opens up the possibility of privatizing all of these socialist programs. Similarly, the war in Iran isn't so much about the story and what he and his regime has to say about it; instead, it has more has to do with oil and how he - much like Venezuela, can control it.

This should be alarming to Americans for a litany of reasons. Not only do we have a government captured: save for individual state's autonomy, lower courts, we the people choosing to not offer our inferred consent, and selectively the actions of military members and them upholding their oath to the constitution. They have SCOTUS, the DOJ, congressional majority, and the records on all of us - exfiltrated from the IRS, thanks to Elon. Likewise, this administration probably intends on using this same information, along with the ballots in 4/5 swing states, to interfere in the upcoming 2026 mid-terms. Additionally, we already know that the Trump-regime previously worked with Cambridge Analytica, in the digital-space to influence voting behavior in the 2016 presidential election. Moreover, Elon assisted between obtaining access to the voting tabulation computers, "helped individuals in swing states register to vote" while harvesting PII, and contributed some 250M+ in ads and canvasing to net a win for Trump in the 2024 election. Collectively, you must recognize when presidential elections are tight races. In the past 5 presidential elections, the difference came down to in 2008 9.5M vote difference (7.2%) and 2.28M in 2024 (1.5%) of difference in votes between winner and loser in these presidential runoffs.

That's not even beginning to mention the litany of 20+ other gambits they are actively pursuing, no one is talking about, and we're only 4 months away from the 2026-midterms. I hope to elucidate and raise awareness to the public that unfortunately, ever since the SCOTUS decision on Citizens United (2010), we have lost our democracy to to the ultra-wealthy. They have changed the rules, and ever since FDR taxed the rich upwards of 95% - which lead to the rise of the middle class, post WWII - the ultra-wealthy "old money" and "new money" have been fighting viciously to claw it back. Likewise, this is also why the wage gap decoupled from productivity between 1973-1979, and wages have not remained in-line to the associated reward of "trickle down economics". Now we live in an age of "siphon up" economics, especially with monopolies Blackrock. This better explains why the wealthy and those after becoming wealthy, often set their sights on the government, through: governmental contracts, and shape governmental policy in their favor - avoiding paying taxes and leaving the bill to hard-working Americans. Likewise, because of the lack of taxation, we are the ones subsidizing the roads (commerce), the electrical grid (data centers), and a myriad of other infrastructure.

Finally, when it does come to taxation and Trump's supposed "tax breaks" for hard-working Americans, in 2017 - while the law did offer some temporary relief for a 5 year period to Americans, lowering the corporate taxation was what the law was really about. Additionally, the more recent cuts to taxation likewise disproportionately benefitted the rich, yet again - with only offering a meager relief of "no taxation on tips". Thus, a rekurrent pattern emerges.

This is very much par for the course. The Trump administration actively admitted in federal court, that it punished any states that voted blue in the 2024 midterms.

These are exactly the kind of abuses and over-reach of federal power that's a clear example of presidential abuses of power. Of course, it was no accident that SCOTUS teed up Trump's 2nd term to offer him blanket immunity, so he could go about punishing and attacking his enemies, starting wars, or worse.

This is a presidency that is out of control and we're not even halfway through it.

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!
