Trump, Who Calls Mail-in Voting ‘Cheating,’ Just Voted by Mail

Obvious. Trump’s message has never been “this is wrong,” it’s been “this is wrong for you.” Meanwhile, he keeps every advantage for himself. That’s how power gets concentrated—by limiting others while expanding Trump’s own options #Hypocrisy #PoliticalPower www.nytimes.com/2026/03/24/u...

U r right about almost everything except SIMPLY because #Trump can. It’s not simple because Trump can do whatever he wants, it’s because the #RepublicanParty has ensure he can be above the law because of them manipulating #PoliticalPower to support & favour Trump’s agenda & ideology.

Si personne ne fait semblant de croire aux mensonges du tyran, si personne n’obéit au tyran, le tyran n’a pas de pouvoir. Comment la servitude peut-elle être volontaire ? – Le Gai Savoir – France Culture: https://www.radiofrance.fr/franceculture/podcasts/le-gai-savoir/comment-la-servitude-peut-elle-etre-volontaire-6093202 “ce tyran seul, il n’est pas besoin de le combattre, ni de l’abattre. Il est défait de lui-même, pourvu que le pays ne consente point à sa servitude.” Discours de la servitude volontaire – Etienne de La Boétie – https://www.singulier.eu/textes/reference/texte/pdf/servitude.pdf If no one pretends to believe the tyrant’s lies, if no one obeys the tyrant, the tyrant has no power. According to Arthur M. Schlesinger Jr. in The Imperial Presidency, if nobody obeys him, the dictator is just a guy in a room. Looking for Richard (1996): https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Looking_for_Richard “The film is Pacino’s directorial debut. It is both a performance of selected scenes of William Shakespeare’s Richard III and a broader examination of Shakespeare’s continuing role and relevance in popular culture. The film was featured at the Sundance Film Festivalin January 1996 and it was screened in the Un Certain Regard section at the 1996 Cannes Film Festival”. In the documentary film by Al Pacino, Looking for Richard means American actors trying to understand the main character of Richard the III and thus all the other characters he seems to manipulate and control. But any company of actors would have to discuss and make research about the play, because it is a very intricate one. I like the expression “Looking for Richard” because it could also mean that the tyrant hides himself, and that would, for sure, be behind other people. He does not do the evil deeds himself. And, of course, those who do act, doing the mischief Richard wants, also hide themselves behind Richard’s back… How should we look at Richard? He’s just using words in a clever way, like an actor…

TEKA는 오늘도 진실을 말합니다. 누군가 나를 공격할 거라는 공포는 정권의 분열 통치 수단일 뿐입니다. 타인의 말엔 대단한 의미가 없습니다. ⚖️🚫

Henry VIII and Religion as Political Power How Henry VIII used religion to consolidate sovereignty, reshape doctrine, and secure political authority in Tudor England.

Henry VIII didn’t abandon faith. He nationalized it. 👑✝️

The English Reformation wasn’t just theology — it was authority restructured. When sovereignty absorbs religion, the crown stops answering upward.

Invisible Chains! - Stratheia Modern power works through pressure not occupation, shaping state decisions, alliances, and sovereignty in an anarchic global system.

Modern geopolitics is not always about occupation. It is about limits — who sets them, who enforces them, and who must live within them.

A critical distinction: Sin (khata) is the stumble; Iniquity (avon) is the chosen, prideful path of corruption.
Wicked rulers depend on believers who can't tell the difference.

"[One] benefit of singling out the #homeless is it creates a simplistic narrative that plays into preexisting fears of the #unhoused, while laying complex problems at the feet of those who lack the #politicalpower to fight back." Hannah Lebovits, #UTArlington
