Outrage grows over Trump’s ‘disgusting’ AI response to ‘No Kings,’ and the sentiment is loud and clear: this is unacceptable. The former president, already a figure of immense controversy, has seemingly crossed a new line.

The current political climate, the actions, and the trajectory of certain figures demand a response – a forceful one.

Pushback against the Republicans is essential, because Trump is only a symptom.… Continue reading
