Trump promised his tariffs would “bring jobs back” and “make America strong again.”

Instead, they’ve triggered boycotts and counter‑tariffs that are hammering the very communities that trusted him most. Canada was strategic & laser focused on ensuring MAGA in the US felt their wrath. #ElbowsUp

If your house of worship is silent about the cruelty and the attacks on your neighbors by ICE, you’re at the wrong church, mosque, synagogue, temple, or gurdwara.

I can’t believe Peter Baker, in his NY Times News Analysis, just referred to the Felon as “the leader of the free world.” There’s nothing factual about that phrase. He’s not a leader, but a puppet for his seditious handlers. And certainly not of the “free world” as he pushes away the free world.

This is the most important political, legal and democracy story right now. Yet, it has garnered relatively little coverage from legacy media outlets. The outcome in these cases may decide whether we have free and fair elections in 2026. www.democracydocket.com/analysis/as-...

Right. Just implement this bright idea and watch the tourism dollars float away to Europe, Canada, Mexico and South America. Why would anyone in their right mind visit the US?

Foreign tourists could be required to disclose 5 years of social media histories under Trump administration plan
The Customs and Border Protection proposal would apply to travelers from more than 40 countries.

Why are we not losing our minds about having a fascist in the White House supported by an authoritarian regime? Our democracy is on life support at best. My guess is the media/press is intimidated and too fearful to take this on. We are re-living 1930’s Germany right now! Resist!

It’s past time for all of us in our respective communities to work our butts off to bring swing voters—-old school, disenfranchised Republicans, unaffiliated/independents, & apathetic & ill-informed Dems—to our pro-democracy coalition. The time for talking is over. Get to work. Midterms are coming!

The Trump/Venezuela Plan: Because Trump admires and aspires to be a fascist dictator, he wants the US to attack Venezuela in order to take its oil reserves, its minerals, and other natural resources. Hence the campaign against the Venezuelan drug cartels. He wants a Ukraine he can call his own.
