Trump 2.0 is "flooding the zone" with questionable edicts and hasty actions. We can learn from nature how to turn a danger into a blessing. susanobrien.substack.com/p/biomimicry

Thinking that the Senate is failing its constitutional duty to advise and consent--because it only is rubber-stamping Trump's ill-equipped and worse-intentioned nominees? See susanobrien.substack.com/p/madness-ma...

Today's blog is a knee-jerk rejection of the part of the John Roberts annual report that (falsely) attempted to justify beforehand a favorable view by the court of complaints against Trump's use of force in gathering, holding, and evicting immigrants. susanobrien.substack.com/p/false-equi...

Well, Mr. Big just can't get off ranting about Canada, Greenland, and the Panama Canal. I'm staying on his case with a notion that his forthcoming trials will be like unto that of a bull rider when the chute lets his beast storm around the arena.https://susanobrien.substack.com/p/shaking-things-up

Damage of an abrupt shut-down of government funding for 30 or so days is stunning in concept (to the benefit of the Billionaire Boys Club) and actuality (to the detriment and discomfort of about 800,000 workers plus global market disruptions, including NATO relationships + the value of the dollar.)

Time to move off observations of and complaints about the anticipatory obedience of media and corporate America. Accept facts you dislike. Let's focus on effective local resistence. That's where the action is.

Thank you to @georgiapatrick for the restack and strong comment. We are gaining a little traction here + at Substack due to the enthusiasm of our initial readers. I have been commenting on national events since Election 2024. Now I turn to the root of the problem. Everywhere. Our own backyard.

So, today I blog about the fact that Hollywood and the music industry supported Kamala in Election 2024--and have yet to bend the knee, kiss the ring, or apologize for their opinion of Mr. Big. There may be consequences for defiance.

Today’s blog may be too esoteric for almost everyone. Sometimes one just has to suggest that the MAGA movement is not some sort of Republican master stroke. And that Trump’s wins are not due to Democratic messaging failures.
