The U.S. is headed toward being led by a corrupt strongman personalizing and profiting from power. Some Georgians who endorse America becoming just another corrupt cesspool: Rep. Barry Loudermilk (R-GA) and his staffers Rob & Ashley Adkerson, Nick Petromelis, Ashleigh Padgett.

Here is a list of facts (FACTS) that prove how stupid someone has to be to have voted for Trump or any of his Republican Trumpist lackeys, and doubly stupid if they continue to support Trump in the face of these (and more) FACTS.

”Trump is doing grave and possibly irreparable damage to the real sources of U.S. strength, including its long-term investment in scientific research. Trump is declaring war on science, and the casualty will be the U.S. economy.” Real Americans (I.e. non-Republicans) must denounce this abomination.

Two other misused words have become common place in TV newscasts: “you know.” An increase in the number of people who use them and the frequency of each person’s repeat. It’s frequently the program’s host or hired panelist who is guilty. Please, CNN, MSNBC, ABC News: put an end to this!

Brooks says Trumpists are creating a dystopian horror. Trump’s words “point to the moral rot at the core of Trumpism, which every day disgraces our country…a giant attempt to amputate the highest aspirations of the human spirit and to reduce us to our most primitive, atavistic tendencies.”

Blow by blow, Trump and his Republicans are destroying the rule of law In the United States. This steady, unrelenting undermining of the rule of law is right out of the fascist playbook. Hitler perfected the art, and Trump is following his example. With Republicans standing and applauding.

Trump deals another body blow to the rule of law. He tosses aside the procedure for ensuring solid justification for a presidential pardon and issues one strictly for political gain. And Republicans applaud—like Germans applauded Hitler as he killed and jailed millions of innocent people.

Meanwhile, Republicans pass a bill keeping Trump’s tax cuts for the rich in place and add trillions to the national debt, plan a military parade for Trump’s birthday costing $25-45 million, and pay tens of millions of dollars to let Trump play golf at whichever of his resorts he chooses.

What happens when you look at six stories, not just one? They paint a picture of a reckless, cruel, dishonest Trump White House—a hostile regime that mocks the rule of law, despises the Constitution and ignores the needs of the people. @markjacob.bsky.social www.americaamerica.news/p/bribes-lie...

The Washington Post plays the sick game of attributing anything anti-Israeli to anti-Semitism. No mention of the Israelis blockading food to Gaza, leaving Palestinian children to starve to death. The WaPo ignores those dead children, in order to play the anti-Semitism card. Despicable.

The Republican tax and spending bill, enacted into law, will destroy the United States. The bare-boned FACTS prove that statement beyond the shadow of a doubt.

Advocates warn that proposed Medicaid cuts threaten Georgia’s safety net programs  georgiarecorder.com/2025/05/21/a...

Some of the CDC's main channels for communicating urgent health information to the public have gone silent.

This act is stupid and potentially dangerous to U.S. national security. Analysis by our intelligence professionals is a linchpin of decision making in foreign policy. But Republicans’ sycophancy toward Trump has led them to choose the equivalent of substituting witchcraft for modern medicine.

Question for Democrats, beginning with Senator Jon Ossoff, running for re-election in Georgia: what is the Democratic program for getting our budget deficits under control?

My fellow Democrats, Mr. Kitzhaber is THE model for how Democrats ought to be thinking. He has found a rational approach to a preferred solution that keeps a vital service intact without adding to our unsustainable national debt. Put this man to work on the Democratic platform for 2026/2028.

Omigod! What has become of old-fashioned American capitalism? President Trump is supporting tariffs that will shape the economy, businesses and the consumer be damned. Now, Trump tells a U.S. corporation what prices to set for its products. This sounds awfully like Communism. What am I missing?

Remember the abandonment of weather service as Trump pushes hard to keep in place his tax cuts for the rich and prepares to spend millions on a massive military parade commemorating his birthday.

The real test of Trump”s fiscal policies gets a failing grade. We will all pay the price.

The public’s consensus is overwhelming: Trump has not just reached a new low. He’s wallowing in a sewer of corruption, lawlessness, lies, and pure gangsterism. And once more, his chief enablers are Republicans, I.e., any Republican who does not publicly denounce this act of unbridled corruption.

Question to Rep. Barry Loudermilk (R-GA) and staffers: it beggars credulity that you can continue to be Trump sycophants despite this comment by a prominent traditional conservative, the ones that Republicans like you repudiated. You have betrayed your country no less than Benedict Arnold.
