I spent the last few months talking to people across the political spectrum, and to people who want nothing to do with politics at all. Here is what I learned.
We are not a divided country. We are a country being divided, on purpose, by an American oligarchy that profits from the fight. They’ve captured our government, denied our healthcare, looted our treasury, and saddled us with crippling debt.
I believe in a New New Deal. Healthcare as a human right. The right of every family to a decent home, and an end to endless wars.
And a dividend paid to every American from the AI economy, because these machines were built on the whole of human inheritance. That inheritance belongs to all of us, and not just to the handful of men playing God with our very existence.
And none of it happens if we just move on. Donald Trump, his family, and his administration are robbing us blind, not just of our money, but of our faith in one another, and they have to answer for it. Truth and reconciliation, not revenge. Then we break the system that let them do it.
The question is not whether we will lose our democracy. The question is whether we will fight to take back what has already been stolen.
I learned in recovery that you can’t heal what you won’t name. Neither can a country.
WHERE IN THE ACTUAL FUCK ARE ALL OUR DEMOCRATIC CONGRESS PEOPLE?
TRUMP IS DESTROYING ALL OUR NATIONAL MONUMENTS.
HE'S OPENING UP PROTECTED HABITATS TO DRILLING.
HE'S FUCKING DESTROYED OUR WHITE HOUSE & ALL THE GROUNDS AROUND IT MAKING IT LOOK LIKE THE KREMLIN 2.0 BUT FUCKING TACKIER.
HE'S FUCKED UP THE REFLECTING POOL.
HE'S BUILDING UGLY ASS SHIT LIKE THAT DAMN ARCH THAT NO ONE PERSON SHOULD BE ALLOWED TO DO WITHOUT CONGRESSIONAL APPROVAL.
MITCH MCCONNELL IS FUCKING SITTING WITH THE GRIM REAPER & EVERYONE IN THE DAMN MEDIA IS PRETENDING HE'S STILL ALIVE.
TRUMP NOW WANTS TO ADDRESS THE NATION & SAY THAT BACK IN 2020, 2 OF OUR LEGALLY VOTED IN DEMOCRATIC SENATORS FROM GA ARE ILLEGITIMATE
I ASK AGIAN.
WHERE ARE THE FUCKING DEMOCRATS IN CONGRESS?!!!!!!
@IngrahamAngle Fed up with a successful, scandal free 8 years of prosperity?
Or fed up because a Black family was living in the White House and it broke bigots like you.
And just like that, it’s completely VANISHED from the media.
A sitting congressman, Ted Lieu, said on the record the Epstein files are being blocked because they show Trump raped and threatened to kill children.
Lets make this viral again 👇
🚨MAJOR BREAKING: Rep. Pat Ryan just revealed that Pete Hegseth ordered military members to an area in Kuwait with an ACTIVE WARNING they had ZERO defense against drone attacks and he IGNORED IT.
Six were then KILLED. Survivors blame Hegseth.
This is even WORSE than Benghazi.
Today’s Supreme Court decision effectively guts a key pillar of the Voting Rights Act, freeing state legislatures to gerrymander legislative districts to systematically dilute and weaken the voting power of racial minorities - so long as they do it under the guise of “partisanship” rather than explicit “racial bias.” And it serves as just one more example of how a majority of the current Court seems intent on abandoning its vital role in ensuring equal participation in our democracy and protecting the rights of minority groups against majority overreach.
The good news is that such setbacks can be overcome. But that will only happen if citizens across the country who cherish our democratic ideals continue to mobilize and vote in record numbers - not just in the upcoming midterms or in high profile races, but in every election and every level.
@Sassafrass_84 Fuck ICE. If any ICE agent demands your ID tell them that they are out of their jurisdiction and that elections are handled on a local state level. Yes, that includes FEDERAL elections. FUCK ICE.
This should be a much bigger story.
The Trump administration is about to hand TotalEnergies, a French oil company, nearly $1 billion of your money to cancel its American offshore wind projects. And they are pulling the cash from an account they are not allowed to use this way.
Here is how it works. The government has something called the Judgment Fund. Think of it as an emergency savings account for when the government loses a lawsuit or settles a real legal fight. It is not a checkbook the President can use whenever he feels like rewarding a company.
To get around that rule, the administration is pretending TotalEnergies was about to sue. But TotalEnergies had no case. The company signed a contract in January 2025 with clear rules: the government cannot cancel these leases unless it first pauses the project for five years. The lease is less than four years old and was never paused. TotalEnergies agreed to those terms. There was no real lawsuit coming.
So the administration invented a fake legal threat to justify raiding an account Congress controls. That matters because the Constitution says Congress, not the President, decides how taxpayer money gets spent.
It gets worse. The White House claimed TotalEnergies would take the money and reinvest it in American oil and gas. The actual paperwork, now public, requires nothing of the kind. The company gets a billion dollars of taxpayer money and owes us nothing.
So Americans are paying a foreign oil company to shut down clean energy projects here at home, using money that was never supposed to be spent this way, with zero strings attached. That is illegal, unethical, and a scandal hiding in plain sight.
This should be a bigger story.
Scientists are more concerned than ever that a critical Atlantic current will collapse soon and wreak havoc on North America and Europe. The Atlantic Meridional Overturning Circulation, or AMOC, is a massive conveyor belt of ocean currents that transports water from the tropics to the Atlantic.
Without it, severe weather would impact both regions at potentially devastating rates.
These scientists aren't just warning us about an environmental issue—they're sounding the alarm about a climate threat that could fundamentally rewrite how future generations survive on our planet.

Buttigieg: And my word of warning to my own political party is that we would make a terrible mistake if we thought that our job was to just take power somehow and then put everything back the way it was. That’s not what we’re here to do.
We’re not out to go around and just find all the little bits and pieces of everything that they smashed and tape it together and say, “Here you go, I give you the world as it looked in 2023.” That’s not going to work. It’s not what we need.
So much has changed, and the truth is they are destroying things right and left. They’re destroying a lot of good, important things. They’re destroying some useless things too, because they’re destroying everything. So now we get a chance to put things together on different terms.
Maybe I'm crazy, but if the heads of our military don't trust the President to be in the Situation Room because he's erratic, unfit, and dangerous....HE SHOULD NOT BE PRESIDENT.
