We had Elon Musk, via DOGE, Destroying Our Government Entities. Now we have Trump, via DOPE, Destroying our Public Establishments! DOGE is still active - how much more activity is planned by/for DOPE?

Now someone needs to create a blueprint for how to give "MAGA" a way out without shame and breaking the spell over the Trump cult. open.substack.com/pub/denzien/...

I hope that what I heard - that Congress was made aware of this decision to bomb Iran in advance - isn't true. Regardless, where was Congress to stop this?

This article states - “The president is focused on uniting our country, improving our economy, securing our borders, and establishing peace across the globe," per White House deputy press secretary Harrison Fields. What planet does Harrison Fields live on? How is this president uniting our country??

We had the same thing with Sen. Padilla, now with this mayor, Brad Lander. There have been lots more citizens treated the same. What's Congress or any other "law and order" types doing about this? This is what needs to be posted about!!!!

This needs to be looked into on a very serious level!

Once again, does history HAVE to repeat itself?

Ahhhhhhh! Stephen Colbert has found his groove again! Nothing like good ole humor to make swallowing BS more palatable! youtu.be/7ZmNLKlkUxQ?...

Just when I think he can't stoop any lower - what a spectacularly petty _______! apnews.com/article/trum...

For those of you who don't have Instagram, here's Cliff Cash's YouTube video. It is well worth watching if you need a dose of humor with your truth! He is from North Carolina - he and Trae Crowder (from Celine, TN) help deal with digesting all this government crap. www.youtube.com/watch?v=9llo...

Not sure if this Cliff Cash instagram reel will come thru, but here's trying! I know this isn't a laughing matter, but I sure laughed through the whole reel! Thanks for the laugh Cliff! www.instagram.com/reel/DFQ99z5...

Again, don't be fooled - US, under Trump admin will defend Israel if Iran strikes back. Why doesn't Iran have the right of self defense for recieving an unprovoked attack? Let's not get into the whole Palestinian/Israel thing-keep it basic. www.axios.com/2025/06/13/i...

US says they're not part of this - I claim BS! We have supplied Israel with military supplies & Iron Dome without let up and will continue to do so - don't be fooled! www.nbcnews.com/world/iran/l...

Something gs never change. What's the saying about you can't change a leopards spots? I will never fully understand how he is President of the USA.

Does history HAVE to repeat itself?

I’ve just launched a new pop-up shop for politically inspired (and creative!) T-shirts via Printify. First 10 designs are live — more coming soon! This marks a shift from accounting to art, and I’m loving it. Some samples - I can create your ideas. Check it out: a-forest-voice.printify.me

We need the "unaffiliated" and others to come together - democrats cannot win in 2026 or 2028 alone. Democrats have to get off their "high horse"! There's YouTube, get brave on X, post on Truth Social, etc. - you can't just do this with "left leaning" social media, main stream media!

This is such an important message ..... let's focus on common grounds, give reasons to create a USA that is better than ever!!!!

This VICE documentary (2016) prior to this president's first term is about his use of migrants for his Akoya Intn'l Golf Club in Dubai-like Gaza or a way to fill jobs for all the "manufacturing" he wants in the USA? Shouldn't this be brought up? Shouldn't people know who they really voted for?

This is what every US resident needs to know and understand. Senator Warren is right on and all that's needed is for enough republican congresspersons to stand up for our country!

Elizabeth Warren is giving a government 101 lesson that SO MANY US residents need to know!!!!! Pass this on - share!!!

I asked AI (using MS CoPilot) about tariffs-this AI response is not how the current administration is dealing with tariff issues. This should not be left or right, but a right and wrong matter. Maybe AI could help our government explain tariffs to WE the people? Who's getting rich here?

We need messaging that transcends party lines. It's about supporting candidates who are willing to stand against the 'isms' that divide us. Let's focus on unity and a 'no label' approach to restore sanity, liberty, and justice in our government. We need more than just Democrats to get the votes.

I truly want to research more about what I, as an individual, can do to make a difference or have an impact. This post emphasizes the AI/techno aspect which adds a much more powerful tool that the extremists in the past did not have. Where are the leaders to make all of this common knowledge!

I'm tired of all the "ocracies" and "isms". Tanking our economy has been used by many a king-wannabes, to better enable a coup. Not mentioned, but important, is how shuttering the Education Dept continues the "dumbing down" of the USA populace. substack.com/home/post/p-...

Is Congress Dead? How much is DOGE (contract pay and/or salaries) and Muskrat really getting paid and how will this offset any "savings" professed by them? Don't forget Muskrats current and future government contracts!!!!!

Some more history to explain why Zelensky should be getting support, especially from the US.

Keep in mind Russia started this in 2014 when they invaded and annexed the Crimean Peninsula! Ukraine did not regain Crimea - afterwards they began to seek NATO membership not as a threat to Russia but as an understandable defensive move. USA & Russia both want those minerals/rare elements.

I stand for Ukraine. U.S. magats were saying that Zelenskyy was the reason for this failed "peace" negotiation. Before this Friday debacle, he had publicly stated that he was interested in the rare earth elements/minerals sharing as PART of the peace negotiations, but wanted security assurances.

Trump’s hyperbole re: Canada/Greenland/Panama/Gaza - is it serious or is it a window into a doddering mind detached from reality? If the latter, unfortunately, that decaying mind belongs to POTUS. I fear that this bombastic BS is distracting us from what’s actually happening HERE in the USA!

Biodiversity is the DEI of nature - a more biodiverse ecosystem is more resilient when facing infestations, disease, natural disasters, etc. Maintaining high levels of biodiversity protects not only the natural world but also human health and happiness. Let's learn from nature and stop divisiveness!

Here's the richest man in the world shutting down the USAIDS agency halting all international development aid to other countries. A civilian with no security clearance or a true government position gaining access to foreign relations info. Congress nor the Justice Dept are representing the USA!

Finding the right candidates for 2026/2028 is extremely important. Here is a high powered (check out trustees/advisors) non-profit organization all should support! I think states' attorneys general could be a main factor in keeping democracy in the USA. campaignlegal.org

Now more than ever it is important to stay in touch with what's going on in the federal and state/local government. Ballotpedia started as an election service website and has since developed into a very informative site for anyone to stay tuned in to our government.

I think getting involved, either by donating to a specific organization or taking action thru an established site can be more effective than writing individual letters to various government agencies or persons. Here’s one. There's also Common Cause links for individual states - like commoncausenc.
