Almost a year into this presidency, Trump voters have gotten nothing except the Big Beautiful Bill, which was usual Republican politics of giving tax cuts to the rich and slashing social spending for the poor. Housing remains unaffordable, cost of living is rising, and manufacturing jobs fell.

A story I found about Haiti:
In 1999, a group of Haitians were tired of political disorder and dreamed of a better life in the United States. So they built a small, 23-foot boat by hand using pine trees, scrap wood, and used nails. They called the boat "Believe in God."

Something Trump has exposed that I hadn’t understood: how politically passive, disengaged & weak Americans are.
No wonder they don’t have gun control, universal healthcare or a living min wage despite overwhelming community support: they’re waiting for someone to give it rather than demanding it.

That one of the three *critical* prongs of opposition is not happening: continual ongoing mass protests demanding Trump’s resignation. It worked just yesterday in Bulgaria.
Americans are being far too complacent and waiting for someone else to rescue them. Europeans & Australians find it bizarre.

“Opponents can contest power at the ballot box, in the courts & on the street. No one arena will suffice. Pro-democratic forces cannot afford to wait for 2026 & 2028 elections; cannot simply rely on the courts; & No Kings rallies alone will not restore democracy. Citizens must use all 3 channels.”

This is a highly unusual order from a Secretary of Defense, and it’s almost certainly a war crime.
In the strike in question, two people survived and were clinging to the side of the ruined boat, and a second mission was spun up to execute them.

Exclusive: Defense Secretary Pete Hegseth gave an order to “kill everybody” in the first strike on suspected drug boats in the Caribbean. After two men survived, the mission commander ordered a second strike to comply with Hegseth’s instructions, according to two sources.
