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.

What an insane world we live in.

My... my... my... so much backpedaling on established facts... even already stated "Anthropic" provided us false intel. You can't re-write the record, once the truth has already come out, sir.

Ever since Trump apparently won the 2016 Presidential Elections (mind you with Russian interference that has been documented by our previously independent DOJ): progressively to now, we've seen Democracy continually assailed.

Elon helped Trump win the 2024 elections, and in my own opinion - the results of that election are deeply suspicious.

So where does this land us? Well... it's everything I feared it would be back in 2015 (presuming Trump would win; but, did not come to fruition - due to Democratic guard-rails). Now, we're living in a dystopian version of "real life hell" - where the way life we knew it to be, 11-12 years ago is now gone. We have never been more over-worked, over-stressed, under-appreciated, and "the will of the People" overtly subverted - in the history of this country.

We currently sit at the precipice of this potentially spelling the end of the Democratic process (as we know it): and in its place, ushering in a super-majority of Republic MAGA politica - solidified and codified into our law; with a clear two-tier justice system to boot!

"You will own nothing and be happy". This is complete the full-circle 80-year cycle of where we were with the great depression, and tees-up potentially the equally (but possibly even more existential threat) of WWIII and global conflict.

The results of the 2024 election were beyond suspicious - considering all variety of factors. I recognize we are deeply in trouble and must as a people come together, express and unify our voice, and re-establish truth. However, I cannot do this alone. I have spent the past 3-4 months - to prepare us for this moment. So please join the movement and cause - instead of giving into silence, indifferrence, or offering your consent (by default) - with intimidation and silence. Our demographic is larger; our voice is louder... our movement is louder. We must us our constitutional rights, uphold the law and restore justice and the social contract - before it's too late.

You know the times where truth is stranger than fiction? How about the case: if it wasn't so painfully obvious and dangerous, this would actually be funny.

In my view: America is running blind, less safe than it was 2-3 years ago, and the programming and indoctrination present in a subset of the voting populace, demonstrates a real concern and worry - that a whole demographic exists, that just repeats a term - with no deeper level of self-reflection.

Finally, the way he pronounces "tyrany" (tee-ruhn-knei) as (tie-ruhn-ni), reminds me a lot of his supporters pronouncing "cabal" (cah-bahl) as cable (cay-bull).

Trump has stated he loves the poorly educated. For some inexplicable reason, they trust him and hang onto every living word he says. They never actually take the time to look up the definition of fascism, or stop for a moment for long enough and self-reflect that their dear leader fits these definitions, better than any Democrat, Independent. or Socialist - ever could.

Lastly, they hate on distributive justice, or social identity, beyond capitalism: which primarily focuses on the disproportionate extraction of wealth of the working-class, and doesn't necessarily offer the same loyalties, nor living-wages required to survive - and yet, these workers are the reason our society functions. They are at the "ground level", living to work (not working to live), their value is always disproportionately extracted and considered "lesser". When it comes his supporters and judging the general population off the metric of how his supporters think and operate, I can better understand why they somehow think the general public is so blind to the ongoing corruption and abuses - and why he's able to run roughshod.

In a first of its kind, this regime has banned the WH from access to their WH news briefing room and WH grounds, on the basis of "unfair questions" being asked of this administration.

To me, it sounds like a violation of the 1st amendment. And a desire to filter out only "favorable" questions to an administration that has repeatedly demonstrated itself to be one of the most opaque in our nations history. While this administration can disagree, otherwise - this administration has been rife with near-continual controversy, cover-ups, and failure to fulfill its campaign promises... while gaslighting the media and American public.

Prior to this: Trump was handing out exclusive premium access to his "Truth Social" API for $200K per year, and $10-30K+ seats, to sit before the president and obtain special access (pay-to-play advantages).

One must ask themselves - when is this insanity going to end? The constitution, freedom of speech, freedom of press, rights and freedoms to vote, and overall - general lack of representation - has resulted in an insufferable age of many Americans, who are hurting financially and unable to make ends meet. In contrast, we have an administration that keeps stating that things in America have never been better.

If the latter is true, then why are Trump and his administration's approval ratings so low? Why hasn't there been a second release of the Epstein files and why with releases are Trump's photos being removed, Epstein co-conspirator's names been redacted, and yet the victims of Epstein's various abuses and exploits - have their names laid bare to the public? And if we're not amid a financial crisis, then why dangle "a carrot reward" of $5000 in front of Americans (likewise, we've seen Trump's position continually oscillate on this topic, claiming: "It's the Democrats fault", "the affordability crisis is a hoax", and onto "America has never been doing better... and 'The Great Big Beautiful Bill' provided tax relief for all Americans"). To be literally this divorced from reality, is proving to be a problem for Trump and his allies, this time around... because while they've been successful at lying and gaslighting (on a multitude of topics), when it comes to pricing, consumers take note of just how much more expensive everything is - and it continues to get - while you have an administration that simultaneously ignores American's financial relief needs, whilst simultaneously gutting the programs all Americans have paid into, such as: ACA Tax Credits, Social Security, and Medicaid (to name a few). Likewise, this administration has hap-hazardously mass-purging of governmental workers and justifying it as being fiscal-hawks that were targeting "waste, fraud, and abuse." Conversely, from my experience/perspective, I see it as merely a means to reduce the government's obligations - as a means to lower taxes for the ultra-wealthy. This has added insult to injury for many Americans, and Americans have been responding in kind - during these run-up and run-off elections, as indicated by a strong preference/sentiment for/towards Democrats.

The overarching concern, of course, is if we want to live in a free and fair democracy and not subsequently lose our democracy - or a complete and total breakdown of the world economy or social order - let alone the breakdown within - this insanity has got to stop. Since leadership has thus far proven itself incapable upholding the constitution and the last bastions reside with the lower courts, individual states, and the voice and actions of American citizens - what is it going to take to bring sanity back to public, social, societal, and political discourse?!

Truly, my main concern here is... we know from personal experience and public sentiment and discourse, that this is quite possibly the most unpopular administration in our country's history. However, given this trend, will the American public reject, call sus, or call into mass-rejection, if we witness Republicans maintain their super-majority? Clearly the results of the 2024 election, don't add up (not to contribute towards their lies of mass fraud in our elections; but more precisely to say: when they do anything/everything to cling onto power, obtain the financial help from the richest man in the world - and that man has gone on to triple his net worth -- that after Trump incensed his mob on Jan 6 2021, sewed mistrust in our elections - not because they are insecure, but because he has a long and sordid history of winning at all costs (up and including cheating) -- could better explain the results of the 2024 presidential elections, given he purportedly won all seven swing states, after literally engaging in a coup and instructing his mob to descend upon Mike Pence? It's a similar phenomenon with how Trump and his allies intentionally conflated/projected Trump Derangement Syndrome (TDS): to not mean Trump's Derangement Syndrome, but those that unhealthfully obsess over Trump - forming their own derangement syndrome, with him as the focus.

While those nuances are important to outline, the debacle and shenanigans are always leveraged to their benefit, even though every accusation from them is a form of self-admission and every consequence was self-inflicted - as much as Trump and his allies attempt to convince the public, otherwise. The best analogy I have for this, is when the perpetrator of a crime - let's say an arsonist - lights a building on fire; proceeds to then dial 9/11 and report the incident... then obtains credit for putting out a fire, they themselves, started. This is basically the Trump playbook to a T. And with that, I'll end by saying: there's a reason why Trump doesn't want this Iran war to end, beyond his ego's unwillingness to bend (and admit fault). While I have no direct evidence to back this up, I feel it's because tariffs and this oil crisis is something he's benefiting from. That is why, it's all the more critical, that the first-amendment (freedom of speech, freedom of press), is all the more paramount - at the moment. Because - cutting off access to "the people's house" (Trump almost, in a freudian slip of tongue - referring to it as "my... the people's house": by denying access and violating the constitution and the rules of law - the aim+goal+outcome is near identical - which undermines our laws and state of self-governance; and second, by filtering and only permitting in voices that align with him - forces capitulation - by denying access. It's strange to say this, but this level of capitulation we've witnessed, in real-time, over this past decade. Trump would assail and rail against the media as being "fake news" (only because they challenged him by asking questions he didn't want to answer). However, back then... the media held strong and didn't capitulate. Now, a decade later, so many arms of the legacy media are openly capitulating to his demands, which places us one step closer to the end of democracy as we know it, and attempts to usher-in and promote, the rise of authoritarian fascism. Likewise, that is why Trump rules by fear: he doesn't want the public taking the time to connect, to begin movement, voice, and resistance - and demand he follow the law. Likewise, it's unfortunate that SCOTUS' decision and timing on the ruling of absolute immunity - came at the absolute wrong time for Americans, but the perfect timing for Trump, and the flagrant and open corruption and out of control administration we've witnessed, over the course of these past ~20 or so, odd months. The truth still matters, the voice of the public still matters. I truly hope that media figures will band together and expose this act of gatekeeping, exactly for what it is, a unilateral over-reach from the executive branch, a self-serving abuse of power (one of silencing/intimidation/capitulation), and lastly - clearly violates the constitution (not that it's been the first time this administration has completely disregarded our rules of governance).

devolving all future

Democrats were so on point with this. Trump ran on the opposite message to the actions he's taking today: he promised affordability and hasn't delivered, and he promises no new forever wars - and now we have a new forever war.

If only the majority, we the people - who hold all the cards and all the infinite power - truly stood together, and held strong. Recognize that as civilians and the everyday American consumer that:

• We pay the most in taxes. We pay for everything - the infrastructure - that businesses take advantage of.
• We make the least amount of money, than any other level of corporate America: which is to say, our labor is exploited. We made $10-$30 (or if we're lucky, $40 / hr.) and our employer makes hundreds an hour, off our work - often selling it back to the very same consumer that cannot afford the ever-increasing costs. All the profits go to the slave-driving stakeholders - that never earned it, nor deserve it. No billionaire worked as hard as they did to deserve what they receive... it rests on the laurels of everyone below that runs it. Even these megalomaniacs seem to think they don't need "we the People" and society anymore; wrong - but they would love to have us believe that and to remain divided.

In this post-truth world: it's ever-so-increasingly necessary that we the people begin to form coalition, use our collective resonating voices, and let the underkurrent - in each of us - rise to the surface.

Recognize since basically Jan of 2026 (but technically since the start of Trump's 2nd term and where SCOTUS provided him absolute blanket immunity (in theory) and where he can pardon any parties that enable him or play accessory to his crimes. You ask, what has happened? The answer: absolute, undeniable, and unapologetic corruption. And moreover, priming/choreographing/manipulation/gaslighting and control over all Americans and a pro-nazi movement that has taken root in every country. All of these events are not disparate - they were planned. Ever since the end of WWII and following the events of the Great Depression and FDR's policies, the ultra-wealthy have been moving behind the scenes to setup an all on monopoly and an outright class war with anyone that is not them. Because of this, they want us desperate on the same system they are seizing control over, while they work quickly and diligently to seize all power, resources, and crash democracies around the world into the ground. They recognized that the same qualities that create strength for democracies around the world, are inherently the same weakness or achilles heel for all of them. Democracies require trust, the honor system, and virtuous people, policy, and self-governance were never intended to operate covertly, off to the side, in backrooms, or shadow-docket courts. Moreover, Democracies were never intended to withstand the systematic dismantling when our own government cannot honor its commitments of separation of powers, or when - even - we the people will not honor our oaths to the constitution.

Right now, they rely on us remaining divided, controlled, corralled by the algorithm and intimidation - and for us to offer our inferred consent/silence and capitulation. As soon as we expose the lies, corruption and keep our eyes on the prize and don't play into their distraction, alternative narratives, and recognize that we the People created our society and in turn control its future - that's the day that the corruption ends and the people take back the control that we never freely offered.

"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.

I couldn't express this any better myself.

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

serves as the same exact stratagem Trump uses when he

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

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

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

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