We Have to Beat Donald Trump. Clearly, the Broken Legal System Won’t.

We have to beat Donald Trump. Clearly, the broken legal system won’t. It’s evident that the legal system has been failing to hold Trump accountable for his actions. The fact that he has been able to evade consequences time and time again is a clear indication of this brokenness. While any normal citizen would have faced jail time by now for similar offenses, Trump continues to escape the grasp of justice. The legal system has been treating him with kid gloves, and it’s up to us, the voters, to ensure that he doesn’t regain power.

The prospect of Trump avoiding prosecution and potential jail time by winning the White House again and pardoning himself is a terrifying thought.… Continue reading

Arizona GOP introduces resolution to declare Trump 2024 winner regardless of the vote.

The recent news about the Arizona GOP introducing a resolution to declare Trump the winner of the 2024 election, regardless of the vote, is truly alarming. It’s shocking to see a political party in the United States resort to such undemocratic tactics.

It’s even more disheartening when we consider that these are the same individuals who spent so much time and money trying to prove fraud in the 2020 election, without any substantial evidence to support their claims.… Continue reading

Democratic senators call on DEA to deschedule marijuana entirely

Democratic senators are calling on the DEA to completely deschedule marijuana, and I couldn’t agree more. The current system has caused harm and has been ineffective in addressing the issue of marijuana prohibition. It’s time to legalize it and allow people to grow it, just like tomatoes. The fact that alcohol, with its addictive potential and known carcinogenic properties, is legal while marijuana is not is mind-boggling. The excise taxes that could be generated from marijuana sales alone are a strong argument for descheduling.

It’s frustrating to think about the wasted years, lives, and money that have gone into the failed war on drugs.… Continue reading

Wisconsin Democrats inch closer to overturning Republican-drawn legislative maps

Wisconsin Democrats inch closer to overturning Republican-drawn legislative maps

As a Wisconsin resident, I have been closely following the efforts of the Democrats to overturn the Republican-drawn legislative maps that have plagued our state for far too long. These maps were gerrymandered terribly and should have been redrawn years ago. It is a clear violation of democratic principles and an infringement on the voice of the electorate.

For years, our state has been held hostage by unfair and unrepresentative district lines. The Republicans have used their power to draw the maps in a way that ensures their continued dominance, regardless of the actual will of the people.… Continue reading
