Recent public appearances by Donald Trump have raised concerns regarding his mental state. Over the course of a single week, he made incoherent statements about Tylenol and its effects, delivered a rambling and disjointed speech at the UN, and expressed paranoid claims of sabotage. These actions, including misspelled words and conspiracy theories, suggest a decline in his cognitive abilities and impulse control. The author concludes that these behaviors warrant serious consideration and public acknowledgment.

The prevailing sentiment, according to a recent NPR-Ipsos poll, indicates that Americans generally oppose Trump’s deployment of the National Guard to major cities for law enforcement purposes. The poll revealed that only 38% of respondents supported the move, while a concerning 49% expressed opposition. A significant 12% remained unsure, raising questions about their understanding of the situation.
The level of indecision, that 12% of “unsure” responses, is worth considering. It suggests a lack of awareness or concern that allows for such militarization to be entertained. Perhaps it reflects a detachment from the realities of life in these cities or a lack of historical context regarding such actions.… Continue reading

JD Vance, speaking on Fox News, raised concerns about whether certain TV networks are fulfilling their public interest obligations, thereby questioning the validity of their broadcast licenses. This follows a situation where Trump-appointed FCC Chair Brendan Carr threatened ABC with license revocation over a joke made by Jimmy Kimmel, which led to a temporary suspension of the show. Vance emphasized that broadcast companies, unlike cable channels, utilize public airwaves under the condition of serving the public interest.

Hegseth’s purge of service members cheering Kirk killing comes under heavy scrutiny, or at least, that’s what the narrative seems to be focusing on. It’s hard to ignore the underlying currents, though, and what it might reveal about the current state of things. It seems like the primary concern is the potential politicization of the military, turning it into an extension of a specific political ideology rather than a force dedicated to defending the country as a whole. The emphasis seems to be less on genuine mourning or outrage, and more on the perceived hypocrisy, considering the selective application of rules and the historical context of soldiers celebrating the deaths of perceived enemies.… Continue reading
During a press conference, President Trump asserted that negative media coverage of him is “really illegal,” arguing that it constitutes cheating rather than free speech. He cited the high percentage of unfavorable stories about him as evidence of unfair treatment by news outlets, likening them to extensions of the Democratic National Committee. This stance follows the administration’s crackdown on free speech in the wake of conservative activist Charlie Kirk’s death, which has drawn criticism from both liberals and some conservatives, including former President Barack Obama and Senator Ted Cruz. The administration’s actions include the firing of an MSNBC analyst and the indefinite pulling of Jimmy Kimmel’s late-night show, after pressure from the FCC chairman.

The Plan to Turn Charlie Kirk’s Murder Into a Left-Wing Crackdown focuses on the immediate aftermath of the assassination, it’s clear that the narrative being pushed is designed to exploit the tragedy for political gain. The circumstances of the actual event, the details of the killing itself, quickly become secondary to a predetermined agenda.
This is not just about a “left-wing” crackdown, despite the efforts to frame it that way. It’s broader, targeting anyone who doesn’t align with a specific ideology. This type of framing has historical parallels, such as the Reichstag fire, where a pivotal event was used to justify an authoritarian power grab.… Continue reading
