28 nations made up the Allied forces that defeated the Axis during 1939-45. Meidas Touch is becoming one of the big 3 for sure. MTN is the go to for the truth and source information Trump unleashed a Blizkreig of 2025 attacks on truth and justice..

CHORUS is a group of online activists forming a coalition to fight Trump,

Togehter they have 40 million followers.

A massive coalition could turn back the tide of right wing fascist media lies once and for all!!!

They appear to be trolling a lot of substacks. One told me I'm a atheist with no moral compass. LMBO I'm a person of faith and I have more of a moral compass than HWSNBN (He Who Shall Not Be Named) has.

I love HWSNBN. Or you could refer to it, if you have to, by its original crime family name, Drumpf. He’s German, not Scandinavian as his family has claimed for so long. His first ancestor to come to America did so to escape German compulsory military service. Guess his dad couldn’t buy a doctor’s note claiming bone spurs. And check out its signature, the first D sure looks the same where a T should be in the last name and the last letter is not a P but more like an F. See what you think.

You're right about his signature. He really is one nasty piece of work.

The girls(women) on the podcast I've had it are awesome. They could very well be an answer to Rogan. We should encourage them. They are in the heart of red country with the nuttiest Governor Oklahoma City. They have some really awesome guests including Harris. Check it out if you haven't seen it. One is a lawyer the other husband is a lawyer but she is very accomplished interior designer 😁 they pull no punches. I knew about the bibles in the Oklahoma schools before it was told nation wide bc of this podcast. They are fighting back and will not comply or surrender to the bullshit.

I've Had It is a daily go to for me. Jennifer and Angie are top of the line.

Gov Newsom was on last month..........totally amazing interview!!!!!

(I stole Donable Lector from Jennifer...LOL)

So happy to see that recognize how amazing these 2 are........and YES....they could take Rogan on and destroy him in no time!!! Jennifer is the cream that rises to the top and Angie is right there 100% all the way.

Their book is coming out soon.........."Life is a Lazy Susan of S*it Sandwiches"

It’s a charitable organization to support new independent media voices in this crazy new time of a truth and information drought and a disinformation avalanche. BTC is not taking a cent for himself as he is well-established and the mission is to bring other creators forward to be heard and supported. That’s all I know for now. Anyone else have more to add?

WW2 resistance played an important part in defeating Hitler. Without there help to destabilize him his reign of terror would of lasted longer.

I consider nonvoters as guilty of betraying our democracy as the fascists. Now, some of them were definitely casualties of voter supression (we are starting to find out just how much of that there was), but a lot of non voters were just too lazy to go out and vote. Shortly after I received my ballot, filled it out, and mailed it in. Four days later, I was informed it had been received and two weeks later another notice saying it had been counted. Easy peasy. But some couldn't be bothered to do that. Others just couldn't be bothered to get up, go to their voting places and vote. It's sickening how many couldn't be bothered to save our democracy.

Agree. Wondering for myself that “ballot received” means “ballot counted. In NC, the GOPee is trying to throw out 60,000 voter registrations after the election ONLY for the NC Supreme Court seat!!!??!!

I'm not sure about other states, but Maryland emails two notices. One when your ballot is received and one when your vote is counted.

Always fight the good fight! I used to spend about a hour a day dropping truth bombs on right-wing sites. Now these same sites took out the option of posting an article with a picture (much more powerful)! They are good at finding ways to stop truth or blurring it, but we'll keep fighting anyways.

Right wingers got my YouTube channel removed because I pointed out truths that they found ummmmm...contrary to their wishful thinking? Took weeks to fight that and get it back. Odd that the right wingers go on and on about free speech, but are very happy to censor others....

It took weeks of trying to find help from an actual person! And the silly thing is, the only reason I wanted it back was to regain videos of pets who are no longer with us...my videos were all pet and garden shots, not very interesting to anyone else! But it really shocked me that it was taken down with no warning, and I never did find out who spearheaded the decision. Just very grateful to have my videos back....all safely downloaded now.

I too am an isolated person but this group helps me feel not so alone. Or actually not alone at all. And I am someone with very limited income. But we can support the cause by viewing all the youtube videos and by calling Members of Congress, both to express our displeasure (in my case it will not sway the ultra ultra maga MOCs..I live in the reddest district in MO.. think Josh Hawley who rejoiced with the release of cop killers and rioters as he was one of them, he just didn't get put in prison) but also to let them know even if we are not in their district that we appreciate their standing up for democracy. I have called Murkowski and Collins (can't bring myself to call McConnell's office yet). We need to pay attention to the videos and acknowledge via phone call or email those Dems who are starting to stand up (Brian Schatz is a good example...I'd never heard of him and if it were not for Meidas Touch and he's great. I do donate to campaigns of folks not in my state and at least according to the gazillions of emails I get, these folks need all the money they can get, so when I call someone to thank them, I tell them that even if I do not live in their district I donate to their campaign (if I do...I do not contribute to Susan Collins). If we all donate only a few dollars it will help them I am sure and they need to know even if we are not in their state, we are working for them. I follow Sarah McBride and try whenever she posts something on facebook or blusky to make a comment of encouragement. She is doing a great job of focusing in issues. I also follow Harry Dunn and he too deserves as much praise and encouragement as we can give him. So hang in there with me on the edge of that pit of despair and hopelessness...there are lots of things we can do, and we will do together. One of my favorite songs is All God's Creature's got a place in the Choir, and that sure applies to us..we all have an important and equal place...we just need to expand and expand the choir!

If citizens do not vote, we do not have a democracy

Expand full comment
Pat Robinson's avatar

That is an interesting question. I think that if all citizens have the right to vote but choose not to, we do have a democracy. If all votes are not equal (as in the case of the electoral college which has meant my vote in Missouri has almost never counted in a presidential election) then we do not have a democracy. If all citizens vote but can only vote for one candidate we do not have a democracy. The US has never been a real democracy as we fall short of letting every citizen vote and having every vote count equally.

In Russian culture, kompromat, short for "compromising material" is damaging information about a politician, a businessman, or other public figure, used to create negative publicity, as well as for blackmail and extortion. Kompromat may be acquired from various security services, or outright forged, and then publicized by use of a public relations official. Widespread use of kompromat has been one of the characteristic features of the politics of Russia and other post-Soviet states.
