20+/- years, a question: How did the billionaires take control of the US? I found an Authoritarian Plutocracy was in our future. Well, it is here, now. We are late in starting the fight for democracy. Start we must. Be driven, bold, unbroken, undeterred.

SCOTUS. A reminder: Magna Carta was the first document… the king and his government were not above the law. "It asserts a fundamental principle that the ruler is subject to the law…." "…it's the foundation stone of the western tradition of law and democracy." h/t D. Carpenter/The Guardian 051525

Tonight, Rachel presented a plausible case that the USA has been diagnosed with ‘Stage 4 Cancer.’ The seriousness of its condition requires no less than the most radical treatments if the USA is to not slip into a near death state or beyond. Again, the USA is gravely ill. Time is running out.

This has to be in Trump's master plan to make America great again. Yes? "Active Clubs", not unlike the Hitler Youth and definitely the American neofascist's project to induct our young people into their neo-Nazi ideologies, are for real. The Guardian reports they are now in 27 states. Dems? Well?

ProPublica's article, The Trump Administration's War on Children, is another dimension of Trump's cruelty, stupidity and despicableness. Why children? For the past 5+ decades, the wealthiest have demanded that quality of life aid be not the responsibility of the state. They want it terminated.

Trump has damaged America in how many ways? A dozen or two? They were not his ideas. The tariff f'up was his. The wealthiest are responsible. Trump is using ideas first posited by Milton Friedman and Lewis Powell (1970), 1980 by the Kochs. We'll restore the US with money clawed from the wealthy.

Based on the 5+ decade behavior of the "elected" pilot (29% of the eligible voters), one must wonder if he is on a suicide mission and wants to take many innocent people with him. Our plane is in a dive, people are screaming with fear and reality is rushing up at us. He will not level the plane.

Trump declared war on the Constitution, America and at least half the population he hates. He is not testing us. This is his war and one does not rely on protests, negotiations and speeches when forced to defend themselves from a maniac. Wake up! You are his enemy.

Trump/Musk, with chain saws, are eying the FDIC. A new weapon to use against us? We now know how they can use Social Security numbers as a weapon, e.g. to encourage migrants to self-deport. One wonders, is the mob wanting to monitor and control our cash? Do they want to impose cashless?

Statement of justice Sotomayor: “The government’s argument, moreover, implies that it could deport and incarcerate any person, including U.S. citizens, without legal consequence, so long as it does so before a court can intervene, That view refutes itself.” Scotus, DHS v. Garcia, April 10, 2025

Trump might be linkng his destruction of government agencies and cruel firings with his repatriated manufacturing to be producing in two years. To produce affordable products here, AI/robots will be used. So said CNBC. Humans are overhead, i.e., lost profits. But, who will buy the products?

Trump, Musk, and their illegitimate regime are ethically and morally corrupt and barbaric. Firing people, denying them healthcare, food and a safety net will likely result in an early death. "It's not personal; It's $$$$ for the wealthiest." The Gods and Goddesses of vengeance will….

CNN's Table for Five included Arthur Aidala, a NYC lawyer for A-listers. He compared firing veterans working for the VA to "cleaning out the garage". Leper. Undeterred Aidala replied, "That's life, that's (sic) how it works in all big corporations." Fool. Wealthiest? Or democracy? Choose one.

The wealthiest are the brain and power directing Trump and Musk. Protests with great turnout and fantastic signs are now working. BUT NOT ENOUGH! The boom will drop in about 3 or 4 weeks and the chances of seeing democracy again is about 50 years away. They have declared war on us; bloodshed?

Trump declared war on the Constitution, America and We the People, installed an illegitimate government, threatening Greenland and Denmark to take the island with force, crippling the Canadian economy yet trying to make it the 51st state, and starving children to death. Protests are the resistance?

Good morning. It’s Trump’s Hate, Revenge and Cruelty War Appreciation Day on MJ? T & M’s reasons and purposes are reasonable and acceptable with many but the means and methods?!! More openness with the press and cool the Hun approach will win public approval for Trump? Long live the King, MJ?

Trump: "I am the leader of the US, only one branch, and 344m shall abide my orders." 225m + American democracy-lovers refuse: No! No! No! No! No! No! No! No! No! No! No! No! No! No! No! No! No! No! No! No! No! No! No! No! No! No! No! No! No! No! No! No! No! No! No! No! No! Never! Let's fight!

Tesla EV sales and stocks falling. Tesla EVs burn. EV sales up 40%-80% globally. Trump, "I am your retribution!" Trump, Musk, and their comrade puppets: Have they learned from 'Lesson 1 Retribution'? Nah. Mission: hurt the unwealthy everywhere. All $$$$$$ for the wealthiest. Lesson 2 coming.

Trump fired the FTC democrat members. This is what the Kochs probably wanted in 1980, their Network is bound to be pleased and the billionaires over the moon. Understand, the $$billionaires and multi millionaires$$ are the problem — they hate democracy. The rest of us? We are only chattel slaves.

HAVING A GREAT TIME IN THIS NEW TRUMP ERA! TRUMP THROWS A SMASHING PARTY! HAPPINESS GALORE. LAUGHING, SQUEALING, DANCING IN THE STREETS…A NONSTOP CELEBRATION! SECURITY, CERTAINTY, RELIABILITY, AND AN ECONOMY THE ENVY OF THE WORLD — GONE…. SO, THIS IS WHY THE RUSSIANS HAVE A BLANK STARE.

IS THERE ANYTHING ABOUT TRUMP'S PRESIDENCY THAT'S LEGITIMATE? SEIZING CONGRESS' POWER? DEFYING JUDICIAL DECISIONS? DESTROYING AGENCIES AND DEPARTMENTS CREATED AND FUNDED BY CONGR.? COMMITTING TO JOINING PUTIN? THREATENING COUNTRIES? DAMAGING THE ECONOMY? ON AND ON. IF NOT, DECLARE IT ILLEGITIMATE.

50 years ago, the wealthiest started this crime. Since, they have wormed their way into and hollowed out our democracy. Trump's inauguration was the grandest phase of the mission: raze all peasant services and jobs, activate the imperial libertarian regime, steal the savings, and rule 50 years!
