‘Trump in 2028’: GOP-aligned organization calls for abolition of presidential term limits

I have been following the recent uproar over the GOP-aligned organization’s call for the abolition of presidential term limits, potentially paving the way for a potential ‘Trump in 2028’ scenario. The idea of a president serving more than two terms goes against the core principles of democracy that our country was built upon. The thought of Trump potentially being in office for an extended period is certainly unsettling to many, considering his controversial and divisive reign during his first term.

As I read through the various comments and opinions on this matter, it is clear that there are strong feelings on both sides of the argument.… Continue reading

Rittenhouse speaks at Western Kentucky University as hundreds protest outside

I can’t wrap my head around why anyone would want to listen to Kyle Rittenhouse speak at a university. What could this murderer possibly have to offer in terms of value or insight? It baffles me that colleges and universities are giving a platform to someone who took the lives of two individuals. It’s a disturbing example of the direction our country is heading in when we glorify individuals like Rittenhouse.

The fact that Rittenhouse was able to speak at Western Kentucky University is shocking to me. How can someone with such a lack of education and moral compass be allowed to address an audience of students seeking knowledge and growth?… Continue reading

Nancy Mace blames Biden’s infrastructure law after ship strike collapses Baltimore bridge

Nancy Mace’s recent attempt to blame Biden’s infrastructure law after a ship strike collapses a Baltimore bridge is not only ludicrous but also a reflection of her political agenda. It is quite astonishing to witness how some individuals are quick to point fingers and deflect responsibility in the face of a tragic incident. The truth of the matter is that accidents happen, and in this case, a powerful ship colliding with a bridge is a clear result of unforeseen circumstances rather than a political agenda.

The weight and force of a ship moving at 9 mph is astronomical, and to attribute such a collision to a political figure is not only illogical but also irresponsible.… Continue reading

Trump Bond Slashed 68% to $175 Million as He Appeals NY Fine

As I read about Trump’s bond being slashed by 68% to $175 million as he appeals a fine in New York, I couldn’t help but feel a wave of frustration wash over me. It seems that once again, the wealthy and powerful are receiving preferential treatment in our justice system. While many of us struggle to make ends meet, Trump continues to dodge consequences for his actions.

What enrages me the most is the blatant double standard that exists. If an average person like myself were unable to pay a fine, we would likely face immediate repercussions. But for Trump, it appears that the rules are different.… Continue reading

‘Yellowstone’ star Forrie J. Smith says he was ‘kicked off’ flight for refusing to sit next to masked passenger

As a frequent traveler and someone who values personal safety and the well-being of others, the recent incident involving ‘Yellowstone’ star Forrie J. Smith being kicked off a flight for refusing to sit next to a masked passenger is both perplexing and concerning. The fact that someone would go to such lengths to avoid sitting next to a fellow passenger who is simply taking precautionary measures by wearing a mask is not only unreasonable but also reflects a selfish disregard for the safety and comfort of others.

In a time where the world is grappling with a global health crisis, it is disheartening to see individuals like Smith who seem to prioritize their personal beliefs over the well-being of those around them.… Continue reading

Trump is selling ‘God Bless the USA’ Bibles for $59.99 as he faces mounting legal bills

When I first heard that Trump was selling ‘God Bless the USA’ Bibles for $59.99, I couldn’t help but shake my head in disbelief. This guy, who has shamelessly violated numerous commandments, is now trying to peddle Bibles? It’s both absurd and tragically fitting in the twisted narrative of Trump’s presidency.

The audacity in Trump’s statements promoting these Bibles is almost comical. He talks about making America pray again, endorsing a Bible that is supposedly the only one approved by him. It’s ironic how someone who has displayed such questionable moral character suddenly wants to champion faith and spirituality. The level of hypocrisy is truly astounding.… Continue reading

Rubio defends Trump’s claim of presidential immunity as raising a ‘legitimate issue’

When it comes to the concept of presidential immunity, Senator Rubio’s recent comments defending Trump’s claim raise some legitimate concerns that need to be addressed. The idea that the sitting President should have the power to do whatever they please without consequences is not only dangerous but goes against the very principles of checks and balances that our democracy is built upon.

The notion that Trump, or any President for that matter, should be above the law is a slippery slope that we cannot afford to slide down. If we establish this precedent, what’s to stop future Presidents from abusing their power and acting with complete impunity?… Continue reading

Idiot Trump Confesses He Actually Has the Money to Post Bond

Idiot Trump, it seems, never ceases to amaze us with his constant stream of lies and deceit. The latest revelation that he confessed to having the money to post bond is just another chapter in the never-ending saga of his delusions. It’s truly mind-boggling how someone can be so blatantly dishonest, especially when facing legal repercussions that could potentially land them in prison.

One has to wonder what goes on in the mind of a man who, despite all evidence pointing to the contrary, continues to spew falsehoods without a care in the world. From claiming to be a billionaire to allegedly having the funds to post bond, Trump’s web of lies seems to have no end in sight.… Continue reading

House Republicans Want to Ban Universal Free School Lunches

House Republicans Want to Ban Universal Free School Lunches

Growing up poor, school lunches were my lifeline, sometimes my only meal of the day. So, when I hear that House Republicans want to ban universal free school lunches, it strikes a chord deep within me. The idea of taking away something as basic as a meal from children who might not have another option is not only cruel but downright inhumane.

The Republican war on education seems to know no bounds. Instead of investing in our future by ensuring that all children have access to essentials like food, they are actively working to strip away the rights of our most vulnerable population.… Continue reading

Wisconsin middle school faces series of bomb threats after Libs of TikTok post

As a resident of Wisconsin, the recent series of bomb threats faced by a middle school in our state has left me deeply disturbed. What is even more alarming is the connection these threats have to a TikTok account known as Libs of TikTok. This particular account has been identified as the source of numerous incidents where individuals or institutions mentioned in their posts subsequently received bomb threats or other forms of violent intimidation. It is appalling that such actions are being taken in response to mere social media posts.

The fact that these threats are targeting schools, libraries, hospitals, small businesses, and elected officials in multiple states is a cause for grave concern.… Continue reading
