If you want to create a docile, obedient nation, first attack the arts so you deskill children of critical thinking. Once you’ve done that the people can be moulded as their rulers please. Beware this barbarism. It’s a path to demagoguery and authoritarianism

This administration is flooding the zone so furiously that people have largely lost track of the lethal attacks on boats in the Caribbean, the gov’t shutdown, the economy, failed release of the Epstein files & so much else. It’s a tactic of would-be strongmen.

The riots in Portland have really escalated. I saw protesters dressed as unicorns and teddy bears.

Getting a kick out of farmers talking on PBS acting like there was nothing they could have done to prevent the crisis they are in and practically begging for a bailout.😁 My personal opinion is I would be much more willing to help them out if they hadn't voted for this! 😕

Perhaps you’ve noticed; the more immigrants they detain and deport…the more violent the United States is becoming. I see a clear connection.

Bondi: "Bondi: "Just like we did with cartels, we are going to take the same approach, President Trump, with antifa -- destroy the entire organization from top to bottom. We are going to take them apart."

Stephen Miller said the quiet part out loud. Trump has “plenary authority,” then suddenly went silent. Their plan wasn’t to be public yet. Clearly, someone hit the panic button in his earpiece.

It gets weirder: CNN uploaded the interview with the “plenary authority” comment edited out.

Government officials should never interfere with or influence artists’ music. Art is protected speech under the First Amendment. When power tries to control creativity, it’s no longer about culture—it’s about censorship, and that’s a dangerous path for any democracy. #Pinks

Jonathan Rinderknecht, a white man, was charged with starting the Palisades Fire. But on X, the company's news summary tab shows a photo of a black man.
