Serbia and Brazil have already shut down authoritarian leaders in elections and now it's about to happen in Israel and the United States. The right wing in all of the world cannot stop their demise. It is happening RIGHT NOW.

    Thanks To Trump For The Incoming Blue Tsunami

    It's not enough that he ruined the economy and started a stupid forever war and ICE and DOGE and Hegseth, RFK Jr., Ken Paxton...etc. Now he's insisting on raising the temperature even higher by just generally acting like an idiot at his very small rallies all over the country. You know what happens when the temperature raises in the ocean, or maybe say over a huge blue wave in the ocean? The wave gets even bigger. We are seeing it happen and now we're only three weeks away. It's getting exciting

    We've Got The Best Poverty

    Donald Trump is not helping the republicans right now at all. As a matter of fact, he's hurting them even worse than they've hurt themselves. Even corporate media is reporting this week that republicans are in full panic, freak out mode. Let's get into it!...

    Last Ditch Effort Fear Campaign

    They are REALLY turning on the intensity on their fear campaign. Apocalypse, nuclear bombs...how much further can they go from there? Go inside yourself and ask, does Peter Thiel or Elon Musk have an interest in "saving humanity"? Or is their interest just saving their bank accounts? And Donald Trump can't blow up anything because he has no weapons. There's a UFO over Tehran! Oh my GAD! A lot this week!

    Down Like a Rocket

    trump's slip of the language made him say "oil prices will go down like a rocket." Yeah...we know what is really happening...HE and misadministration will go down like a rocket. Only Elon's rockets go down. Usually rockets go up. Trump is in deep dementia state. Leaks from top military command keep happening. After all the failures in the GOP's attempts of cheating in the upcoming mid-term elections, even trump himself seems to have just given up. Charges in ICE murders in Minneapolis? Much mo

    Grass Is People Too - He's Crazy - They Are Terrified

    Trump is just walking around spouting off proof that he is completely mentally gone and also proving he NEVER knew anything about anything. That is causing ALL the rats to begin jumping ship. Many resignations are occurring. They see what's coming in the midterm elections. DC Gand Prix - Covering up how badly the United States is losing the war with Iran under Secretary of War Crimes, Pete Kegbreath, importing bad beef, turning ranchers and farmers against trump, the world laughing at the United

    Dictator Falls In The Fall

    Although it's happening too slowly, the crumbling of the authoritarian, autocratic, dictatorial regime is in progress. This ain't ME saying it...it's the CIA. Four-hundred former and current CIA analysts and spies are not afraid to leak to media outlets that they are seeing the normal crumbling that always occurs with these idiots. ALSO - MORE insanity with trump having more protection hole to hole on his golf course than the entire rest of the military, HUGE earthquakes... I won't go on here. M

    The World We Want

    Are we all sick of compromising our morals and values because we have a fear of losing? Are we all sick of picking a status quo candidate because we've been told they're the one with the best chance of winning? Would we all like a candidate we can be excited about because they vow to work toward the world we want instead of merely the world we think we can get? Let's go after the world we want. Are you with me? Let's GO!

    TACO Friday!

    WW3 was supposed to start last Friday night, but trump decided to turn it into a TACO Friday. We love tacos. More polling means more fear for Republicans. Todd Blanche is asked "who won the 2024 presidential election?". How's the new candidate in Maine doing? This and much more in this episode!

    Pressure Is Mounting Against The Regime

    Although it feels like nothing huge happened again this week...it actually did. The pressure on trump and the GOP is mounting. The CIA continues to leak things that are not good for trump. China threatens to release what they have on trump. I wonder what that could be. We're being lied to about the war. (surprised?) Trump made a shocking deal with Saudi Arabia. He didn't want us to know that, but it was put out by the CIA. He told them to do a document dump on Thursday. It wasn't the documents

    Dead? UnDead?

    Who's dead, who's undead, who's about to die? It's feeling pretty nuts, right? They say these things come in threes. So what's next? This week has some scheduled things going on that could be crazy too. Some of what is happening is pretty funny and encouraging. Some of it is still a dull headache. Let's talk about it.

    The Big Shift has Begun

    This week showed us stark changes in the energies. People seem to be demonstrating that they are all just sick and tired of trump and all he does. Are there only thirty-four MAGATs left? Because that's how many people showed up for trumps stupid horribly done "American State Fair". SCOTUS seems to be turning against his antics. Todd Blanche is in deep over the Epstein Files. The main story is becoming how weak trump and the republicans are.But more stories are about the changes going on in the D

    What A Difference A Brain Makes - Rebuilding Without Nostalgia

    This was a week of contrasts. Everything is getting more absurd with the trump regime. And Obama and Kamala are reemerging and pointing out these contrasts. It's time to move forward. We are preparing to rebuild all that is being tore down. The people are rising and scaring the f**k out of the oligarchs and dictators.

    More Erasure, But Too Slow - Let's Move Forward

    We have a lot of promising, futuristic candidates who WILL be elected, or re-elected. They are real people speaking to us voters as fellow humans. They're not speaking at us in a calculated way as advised by political science major consultants. We don't have much longer to wait as they take over our government and begin to deliver what we, the people, want and expect. In the meantime, we're all putting effort into monitoring and pushing for this dark force regime to be completely tore down and

    A Casey Kasem Countdown & More Losing & Erasure

    "Persona-Non-Grada" was declared against a trump regime cabinet member. It's stupid, embarrassing, somewhat tragic, but also hilarious. Let's take the time to laugh at the absurdities going on right now with this trump regime. Sounds like a good time to bring back a new "Casey Kasem Countdown"! Let's do it!

    Losing!

    Although things are still moving too slow, this week a lot of energy has shifted. Trump is losing left and right. So is the Republican party. Court rulings are getting stronger. There are more and more elected Republicans ignoring and going against trump. Trump's plans are failing and getting canceled. And trump seems to have lost interest in everything including life itself.

    Erasure! Is It Worse Than Prison, Donald?

    Trump is being erased. A cancelation of a twenty year trump tower project in Australia to China heavily downplaying trump's pointless visit. The courts are erasing him. Other countries are erasing him. MAGATs in the U.S. are erasing him, GOP state legislatures, Congress, THE WORLD has begun the process of erasing donald trump. A guy like him?... he may end up wishing he went to prison instead.? Let's also keep our eye on some shocking things the American corporate media apparently does not want
