It’s crazy, How the 🇺🇸 Left ©®™ missed this train And wasn’t able to organize against the corporate-tech-conservative-neoliberal-neofascist alliance nexus leading up to Trump.

The political journalist Mark Halperin, who now runs 2WAY and has a show on Megyn Kelly’s network, said it was remarkable that “the left seems largely unaware that some of the smartest and most sophisticated Trump supporters in the nation from coast to coast are part of an overlapping set of text chains that allow their members to share links, intel, tactics, strategy, and ad hoc assignments. Also: clever and invigorating jokes. And they do this (not kidding) like 20 hours a day, including on weekends.” He called their influence “substantial.”

In the second term of the Trump elected regime, a deliberate strategy has emerged: inundate the media landscape with rapid, successive actions to outpace scrutiny and erode institutional checks. This approach not only overwhelms journalistic capacities but also pressures U.S. institutions to compromise their constitutional responsibilities. A Deluge of Deportations Central to this strategy is the imposition of stringent daily arrest quotas on Immigration and Customs Enforcement (ICE). Each of ICE’s 25 field offices has been directed to execute at least 75 arrests daily, aiming for a nationwide total of 1,200 to 1,500 arrests per day. Continue reading →

Note à moi-même : La vérité des faits objectifs n’est jamais une diffamation. Aussi dure, dérangeante, insupportable ou destructrice soit-elle, la vérité, dans l’affaire qui nous concerne, n’est rien d’autre que des faits ignorés — consciemment ou inconsciemment. Une fois l’abcès crevé, commence alors un processus de recalibrage entre ce que l’on croit savoir et la réalité de celles et ceux qui l’ont vécu. Il faut du temps pour que les réalités s’alignent — autant de temps, parfois, qu’il en a fallu pour creuser le fossé entre soi et les autres. Continue reading →

Helen Mirren once said: Before you argue with someone, ask yourself, is that person even mentally mature enough to grasp the concept of a different perspective. Because if not, there’s absolutely no point. Not every argument is worth your energy. Sometimes, no matter how clearly you express yourself, the other person isn’t listening to understand—they’re listening to react. They’re stuck in their own perspective, unwilling to consider another viewpoint, and engaging with them only drains you. Continue reading →

The key point is this: Without this abuse of power, Trump could not be unleashing such havoc. In short, Trump’s lawlessness and his economic destruction are the same story: The former doesn’t just enable the latter; the two are inextricably entangled with each other.
