“Get up and do something.” October 18 would be a great day to do something. Then expand that energy to oppose the lawlessness of this administration all the way to midterms 2026.

“Habeas who?” Trump and Noem know nothing and just make it up as they go. Fetterman knows better, and is fine blowing up whoever happens to be in the Caribbean waters. The WH likely setting the table to extrajudicially kill Americans. Careless people are now certifiably Dangerous People.

The president is getting worse and worse, at the same age as Biden, while his family frantically peddles whopper absurdities all the moreso to prop up their house of lies.

That did make Kent State look small. And which Americans are going to sign up for massacre duty is no small question. The more who move en masse, the more a commander has to consider. Screening Gandhi is a great suggestion.

Good news, your reporting has been among the best at providing general summaries and analysis, particularly making the complex economy accessible to laymen.

“The face of evil” is accurate, but similar to blaming just Hitler et al, for the 20th century catastrophes. There are legions of subordinates doing the work of both Miller and Vought to dismantle and weaken the USA. Multiple “movements” of radicals have been incentivized to “carry out orders”

Raise taxes and provide needed services to the struggling majority. Do what is needed on the revenue side to ensure the solvency of Social Security, Medicare & Medicaid. Make everybody pay a fair share. Start addressing the real problems around climate, crypto scamming/disaster, and AI regulation.

Why “move out and draw fire” when we haven’t had soldiers in a fighting conflict for over four years? (Which was a welcome change from the previous twenty.)

Jack Parrish @jackparrish191.bsky.social · 11d

“merit only, merit based, the president talks about it all the time” the only thing that merits this presidents attention is what’s in it for him. That’s why this administration staffed by incompetents is such a threat to the American people’s health & prosperity

Enough is enough. Resign Mr. President. Congressional Republicans, you are guilty by association with a lawless administration. Do your constitutional duty and remove this man who would be king. If not, the People will remove you from office through electoral means.

“This can be done the easy way, or we can do it the hard way.” A familiar refrain now in Washington DC that shows power is in the hands of authoritarians possessing a “Mob” mentality, and a ruthless devotion to corruption and greed.

Trump is only performative. Listen to Netanyahu call him Israel’s “greatest friend”, the same that he said to Biden, but he means it now! Netanyahu has always played Trump, and other leaders have learned from him. Where is the voice of the Palestinians in this agreement?

The manchild’s vindictive pettiness is a given. That military leader’s are bending to it, in this performative context, is alarming. Will they obey illegal orders to do physical harm to Americans?

Jack Parrish @jackparrish191.bsky.social · Sep 1

The January 6 event, leading to impeachment, convictions, jail time, then pardons for the worst of the worst insurrectionists with other criminal convictions, is the most reprehensible of Trump’s presidential crimes & misdemeanors. The free 🌏 is astonished & angry at 🇺🇸, unpredictable, now untrusted

C’mon South Jersey. You can find a representative to advance your interests. Van Drew voted to make your life more expensive so that the richest in the land can keep even more. He lies to you and thinks you won’t realize his betrayal before the next election.

There is a reason that Trump is sitting around the table with European leaders all understanding each other through the English language. And it speaks volumes that Putin could not sit there and engage without the use of a translator. He does not have the same values, nor does he embrace democracy

I am furious that President Trump is hosting an ICC-sanctioned war criminal, a murdererous tyrant, on American soil. Despicable. And all support for the Alaskans who are there to protest this heinous charade of diplomacy

We are going to see what Harris told us at the debate that we would see: Putin will eat Trump for lunch. The latter is deeply compromised.

Jack Parrish @jackparrish191.bsky.social · Aug 8

Unfair. And fair-minded people will add this injustice to the list of his others. He will mess up the next crisis affecting Americans directly. Our collective disdain will then explode on the streets.

His highlights reel is the longest in history, nobody’s ever seen anything like it.
