I am convinced we can overcome the chaos by midterms if 1) we write our senators to block the nomination abominations, and 2) we devise a platform that sells to people regardless of party. Things like healthcare and medicines are your right. Things like no income taxes below $40,000. Things like the wealthy pay up for all of it, in exchange for their truck fleets abusing our roads and bridges. https://hotbuttons.substack.com/p/brainstorm-the-2028-party-platform?r=3m1bs

I doubt if Trump will allow Musk to overshadow him. Interesting that he gave an immigrant that much power while threatening immigrants from Latin America.

"Only the AfD can save Germany,” Elon Musk wrote, referencing the far-right German party. purposefully employing Nazi rhetoric."(Musk endorsed AfD this weekend.)

The Donald had members of the AfD at his castle in Fla. Interesting coincidence, NOT!

If this is an example of being "Woke," then please, bring it on.

Thank you Heather for teaching me history along with keeping me current with events. I had a boring history teacher so I am embarrassed to say I didn’t pay attention to history.

I only became interested in politics when Trump ran for President in 2015. The psychiatrists were sounding the alarms. The man who wrote the book that Trump took credit for, “The Art of the Deal”, was also sounding the alarm.

You live in Maine? Senator Collins seems to be nearing the end of her time serving. It would be wonderful if you could take her position. You might even be the leader of the Senate! You certainly would be successful as you already have supporters. I for one would contribute to your campaign. We need smart, educated people to lead. Please consider it. Merry Christmas! 🎄🎁

Great comments. I prefer the printed word and look forward to to it every day.

But 'wow' the last few days were terrifying.

Why does a country with a sovereign currency ever have to borrow? It doesn't. This false narrative is an obstruction to the progressive agenda, not that M4A or affordable state universities should be considered progressive, at all. These are extremely popular because we all believe that we should already have them.
