Far too often we will waste our time waiting for the ideal path or choice to appear, but it never does because we forget that paths are made by walking, and choices by doing not waiting. We can no longer wait for someone else to start We must be the change that is needed.

We've solved the mystery on why all those remote and uninhabited islands were targeted for tariffs by Trump - they show up in US trade data due to mislabelled shipments. eg mixing up Norfolk, Virginia or Norfolk UK with Norfolk Island!

Not that Norfolk! Mislabelled shipments led to Trump tariffs on uninhabited islands and remote outposts with no US trade
Exclusive: Aquarium systems, Timberland boots and recycling plant parts were mislabelled as coming from remote Norfolk Island or Heard and McDonald islands

Trump's bizarre obsession with insisting that Canada become the "51st State" has pivoted from trollish trash talk to something in which he seems to believe.

Yep.

Rep. Larson: “By requiring seniors and disabled Americans to enroll online or in person at the same field offices they are trying to close, rather than over the phone, Trump and Musk are trying to create chaos and inefficiencies so they can privatize the system.”

In my heart I pray she will run again. This time people must take a stand and support her.
We were robbed of having an actual President and many chose a criminal piece of shit instead of her. It’ll continue breaking my heart for a long time.

Judge: How about I write up a proposed injunction that says preserve status quo (with firewall between Treasury and DOGE) for a short time—while lawyers fully brief a preliminary injunction rather than TRO—and everyone tells me tonight by 6 p.m. whether they can agree

Plaintiffs: Fine
DOJ: Fine

Trump and Musk’s attacks on the civil service—from air traffic controllers to food and drug inspectors—aim to destroy Congressional power, which is the people's power.

ABC and now CBS have settled billon dollar lawsuits with Trump. This is foolish as his lawsuits are with out merit. No reasonable judge would see in his favor. Do they not realize they are just helping him. The free press will only remain free if they do not cave to this wannabe dictator. .

16 of the 26 Day One executive orders signed by Trump were ripped straight from the pages of Project 2025.
Russ Vought, an architect of Project 2025, testified before the Senate today as Trump's OMB nominee.
Project 2025 was always the MAGA agenda.
