This cannot be understated: the president is entirely moot now. The system is designed to maintain the current regime indefinitely. If anything, Rump has made it more difficult because he's terrible at everything. If vaguely understood economics this would be worse.

I hope so but the movements and motions of the government, for the most part, has yet to capitulate to the will of the voting public and why fascism continues to be entrenched in the US.

It sounds crazy if you believe that the US government has any intention that isn't superseded by the quarter for money/power/control. The walking blister is already saying the midterms are going to swing their way.

I am truly sorry, but this is the reality of current events.

They're going to decimate us economically and politically. The investment into Canadian rare metals companies is unsettling.

The bottom line: I completely agree with and both sides of aggression make me anxious.

I truly want to be wrong. But when you compare against history how this slide works, this IS what's happening.

I mean, the voting machines were just purchased, the gerrymandering, the overt oppression of dissenters, etc.

This isn't the movies, this is how fascism happens.

I hope I'm wrong, but I haven't seen much reason for optimism.

And the Democrats have been fairly listless in defense of their namesake.... At this rate, after they get decimated in the midterms (which is going to happen) they'll dissolve, formally. Even if they don't, the Heritage Fnd will attack Venezuela to create a war/negate any election

Turning American farmland into real estate to sell to foreign countries for building bases was always the plan.

It's 1:25 a.m. in Los Angeles, I'm sitting at my computer, I'm here on #Bluesky, I can't stop crying and my eyes are puffy and I'm having a tough time breathing.

We are living in a dictatorship and I don't know what to do or who to call so I'm telling you.

Dear Pete Jokestra,

This is another reason why this Canadian cannot get passionate about any partnership with the US...

US fan ugliness at the Ryder Cup was merely a reflection of Trump’s all-caps America

European players were subjected to slurs and crude insults about their families. They were no surprise as public discourse in America has broken down

Stop and think: ANTIFA is an idea and it's "anti-fascist" and US government had just declared that they are overly against the resistance to fascism...

Take a bow, free-dum. Stupidity is winning.

Trump says he’s authorized Hegseth to use “Full Force” against Antifa in “War ravaged” Portland

At the request of Secretary of Homeland Security, Kristi Noem, I am directing Secretary of War, Pete Hegseth, to provide all necessary Troops to protect War ravaged Portland, and any of our ICE Facilities under siege from attack by Antifa, and other domestic terrorists. I am also authorizing Full Force, if necessary. Thank you for your attention to this matter!

FYI: The FBI director doesn’t have to authorize the Deputy Director to allow personnel to speak to the press. The Deputy Director can make that call on their own.
