Political Tribalism Callouses Your Soul

Political Tribalism Callouses Your Soul

If what Trump said in the Oval Office yesterday doesn’t send a chill up your spine, then you’ve forgotten what America is. Or you’re way too dangerously partisan. And once you throw due process out the window for anyone, you throw it out the window for yourself. And one more problem…we’re not even speaking off the same basic fact sheets.

In A Healthy Constitutional Republic, Elon Musk Would Be Answering Questions Under Oath Right Now

In A Healthy Constitutional Republic, Elon Musk Would Be Answering Questions Under Oath Right Now

Our Founders gave the lion’s share of constitutional authority to the legislative branch. The people’s house. Because our Founders feared a king. There’s great fear and confusion right now because an unelected oligarch is waging war on the federal government. The very thing our Founders feared. And what is Congress doing about this? Nothing.

What A Constitutional Crisis Looks Like: A Legislative Branch Bowing Down To A Tyrant.

What A Constitutional Crisis Looks Like: A Legislative Branch Bowing Down To A Tyrant.

It’s happening right before our eyes. And none of it should be surprising. Trump is indeed acting like a dictator, the wealthiest man on the planet, not elected by anyone, has declared war on federal civil servants, and Congress, charged in the Constitution with keeping a check on the presidency, has willingly abdicated that authority. It is by definition a Constitutional crisis. Hosted on Acast. See acast.com/privacy for more information.

Trump Is Blaming Black & Brown People and Women For The DC Plane Crash. Disgusting. Monstrous

Trump Is Blaming Black & Brown People and Women For The DC Plane Crash. Disgusting. Monstrous

Please cut thru all the DEI noise out there, here’s the truth. Trump is blaming black people, brown people, women, transgenders, and people with disabilities for the deaths of those 67 souls. That’s disgusting and monstrous. If that doesn’t disgust you, nothing will. And btw, Trump said it because he knows he can get away with saying it. Hosted on Acast.

These Are Lies: $50 Million US dollars For Condoms In Gaza; Trump Sent The Military To Turn On The Water In CA

These Are Lies: $50 Million US dollars For Condoms In Gaza; Trump Sent The Military To Turn On The Water In CA

As citizens in a free society, it is our responsibility to stay informed. To stay tethered to truth. If the people become uninformed and untethered to truth, democracy withers away. We're getting there. Also...Trump continues his cruel attacks on transgender Americans. Hosted on Acast. See acast.com/privacy for more information.

Every Day, Trump Takes A Meat Cleaver To The Constitution. And Every Day, Democrats Suck Their Thumbs

Every Day, Trump Takes A Meat Cleaver To The Constitution. And Every Day, Democrats Suck Their Thumbs

It’s been eight days. And in those eight days Trump has carried out a war against decency, the rule of law, checks & balances, and the guardrails of our democracy. And what have Democrats done? Nothing. Not a damn thing but cower. And hide. And worry. We need an opposition party. Democrats are making clear they ain’t up for this. We need to find an opposition party asap. Or our democracy will disappear. Hosted on Acast. See acast.com/privacy for more information.

Trump Is Lying To You About These Raids & Deportations. And He's Trying to Scare Immigrants

Trump Is Lying To You About These Raids & Deportations. And He's Trying to Scare Immigrants

There is nothing new going on right now. Our immigration cops conducted targeted raids under Obama and under Biden. We put non-citizens on deportation planes under Obama and Biden too. In fact, Obama deported MORE non citizens than Trump did. The only difference? Trump is putting a camera on all of it. To scare you and fool you. Hosted on Acast.
