This is breaking the fundamental social compact between writer and editor it's like the Red Wedding for people who write for a living
Why is the House not holding Bondi in contempt? Why is Oversight not holding Epstein hearings? Why is Oversight not doing more in this case?
Good Question! (1/3)
If not for Trump, what's the emoluments clause for? What's impeachment for? What's the 25th Amendment for? What's section 3 of the 14th Amendment for? What are checks and balances for?
The baddies are cherrypicking the Constitution the same way they do the bible: for their own benefit.
Screenshot of a Substack note by account 'JoJoFromJerz' that says: 'In a sane administration, the FBI Director doesn’t go on the morning news to prove he’s not a drunk, the Defense Secretary doesn’t quote Tarantino to prove he’s a man of God, and the President doesn’t take multiple cognitive exams to prove he’s not insane.'
None of this is normal.
Not enough people are talking about this.
Hungary’s incoming PM has said that Viktor Orbán used Hungarian government funds to help finance CPAC, the flagship networking event for GOP candidates, members of Congress, and conservative media in this country.
Larry Sabato: New NBC Poll: Trump’s job approval at 2nd term low. 63% Disapprove, 37% Approve. 50% STRONGLY Disapprove. So much winning.
My heart is breaking for Shreveport, Louisiana.
Eight young lives stolen in a devastating act of domestic gun violence.
All of us should be outraged that we live in a country that routinely subjects our kids to such unimaginable violence.
I didn’t watch the debate because they aren’t true debates. No one ever answers the question that’s asked. They twist and turn to be about whatever THEY want to talk about. I did see some of the clips but those are shown to align with the news outlet’s agenda.
Our current administration is costing us more every day. I don’t know what’s more oppressive and repressive than shooting peacefully protesting American citizens in the streets.
She had critical elements to her platform and I know people who would’ve been helped by each. My top 4 points were anti-price gouging laws, stricter gun control laws, capping prescription costs, and reforming the immigration system. She had outlined bulleted steps to accomplish each.
It’s important for us all to do our own research on candidates because our votes are so critical.
I never said your comment tells me all I need to know about you. I said, “…it tells me all I need to know about how they evaluate candidates.” She had a well defined platform on her campaign website. It’s clear when people say she didn’t, they didn’t look at her website. That’s it. Plain & simple.
Trump’s Truth Social post from 4/7/26 at 7:06 am. The highlighted section says, “A whole civilization will die tonight, never to be brought back again.”
Elise, you’re the one who’s changing his words. He in no way referenced the Iranian leadership as the focus of his genocide comment. He said, “A whole civilization will die tonight…” (He actually described the new regime as, “smarter and less radicalized.”)
Have been wondering when candidates would start talking about this. One of the biggest corruption scandals is U.S. history playing out in real time.
That is exactly the problem. So many people today don’t seek to learn about candidates. They use ads, social media, and word of mouth to make critical decisions. Not a good strategy.
Insulting people engaging in civil interactions is an interesting choice. If you have to ask about Trump, you didn’t understand my comments. Based on your profile it seems we may have similar political views but attacking people isn’t my thing so we do differ. This isn’t helpful or productive. 👋🏼☮️
Many are bots, but sadly I personally know people who have said she didn’t have a plan. 🙄😂
And if you’re not paying attention to MAGA and this administration you should. Ignoring their words and actions is dangerous. BTW, they’re actually hoping people will do that. They’re counting on people not paying attention or becoming so hopeless that they give up so they can achieve their goals.
Nope. Just aware of what’s happening in our country and cognizant of how this methodology has been used across history in the same manner to try and destroy democracy.

In my hyper conservative churches growing up, I was always warned about liberalism but never far right authoritarianism. I was always warned about socialism but never predatory capitalism. I was always warned about feminism but never misogyny. I was always warned about homosexuality but never about abuse in the church. I was always warned about Islamic extremists, but never Christian nationalism. Imagine what American Christianity would look like today if it had focused on its own sins.
If you think the opposite is true, you’re not paying attention.
Win or lose, there remains a real measure of promise and decency in America that is worth the fight. And win or lose, there is no dignity for any of us unwilling to have that fight.
DOJ seeks to vacate insurrectionists’ convictions, while going after a former CIA Director: If Trump can make convictions disappear for allies while prosecuting critics, the damage isn’t just theoretical. Once that line is crossed, it doesn’t easily uncross itself. open.substack.com/pub/joycevan...
She had a well defined plan and it was all in black & white on her website. When I hear anyone make a comment like this it tells me all I need to know about how they evaluate candidates.
She was right about Trump and Project 2025.
She is right about him now.
Just imagine what America and the world would have avoided if America had just listened to her.
77mil voted for him.
75mil voted for her.
80mil stayed home and didn't vote for anyone.
Time to VOTE

“The government wants to pretend …. juries never convicted these defendants on some of the most serious charges that can be leveled against people in a democracy.”
