ABSOLUTELY LOVE THIS: “Because if we’re going to win this fight, we’ve got to be human with each other. We’ve got to care. We’ve got to lead with empathy—something Trump and his sycophants see as a “weakness.” I see it as our greatest strength.”

When a culture loses its morality, compassion, empathy, it’s well on its way to fascism, Republicans have been on that path for at least 20/30 years or more now. They’re dragging the entire country into their depravity and destroying it for power.

If we stay united, they cannot win. Our intelligence, empathy, and courage are things they simply don't have. I don't know what the future holds, but I’m willing to fight in the hope it will be better!

Time to dig out all my “RESIST!” stickers and clothing from 2017 👇

Agreed! I feel that I am in an ongoing nightmare that no matter how I try, I cannot wake up from.

I like your tees! I design t-shirts as a way to vent my angst. So far (since May) I haven't made any money on them. Lol! But it gives me one more outlet in addition to watching MTN, reading Substack, posting on social media, calling my state representatives... https://milabeauxs.etsy.com

We have to stop calling this "deportation" because it is abductions. They are kidnapping people.

Yes because next it will be American citizens and journalists going “missing” because they speak the truth.

Exactly what the Chinese govt did to journalists and health professionals trying to warn the world about covid. So many disappeared never to be found. I can't believe our human rights are set back 100 years.

It isn't deportation. I agree it is abductions. How can we get Trump, Musk, Vance and Johnson into one of those airplanes?

Not an airplane. The next SpaceX rocket and hope it explodes.

Exactly look what they did to that Canadian actress. Charlie Angus is right to warn his people. I'm praying one day soon all the immigrants will be released and they sue this evil regime for billions. I can't even imagine their terror.

I brought up MEIDAS Touch to our VFW dinner we have every Monday at Applebee's and was disappointed that only half showed up and a few were getting bad information from mainstem news sources. I am glad that my family and MTM on my Facebook site is reaching my Friends and family and some are joining protests across Michigan, including at our capitol, Lansing.

Awesome. Keep it up. I was kicked off Facebook and can't get back on because of how I was supporting Kamala Harris and putting down Trump. Don't care. I am spreading the news in other ways by joining Country First and now I will be writing postcards.

Yes there's a postcard campaign to all the news agencies for not televising our protests. Write postcards until March 24

Yeah. You’re right he won’t. But that sends a clear message to the Canadian voters and then they can decide if it’s relevant or not.

Awesome. Yeah. It should really be mandatory. I mean, most of us have had to have security checks done for jobs or licenses etc. I know this is more involved, but so is the position he holds in government. Makes NO logical sense for him not to get it, aside from the obvious reasons.

I am afraid that we are slipping into a horrible place. They are not letting scientists in because of what is in their telephone messages. How do they see that? They confiscate their telephones. It is awful. (I enjoy Meidas+. Thank you for all you do.)

Excellent.

Have you reached out to the new DNC Chair to discuss his plans to pull Dems together? Yes, AOC and Jazmine Crockett!

Love Canada!!!! What other Democratic countries can you reach out to in order to pull in more Global viewers?

RitaLong's avatar

The DNC is a major part of the problem. They are corporate sell-outs. They are terrified of Crocket and AOC. They undermine Bernie at every turn. Run from them.

LJ Cooke's avatar

You are right about them being a big part of the problem. But I think it would be wiser to take it over. Splitting off can cause even more division. I think Pelosi and AOC need to put their heads together.

I hope so, but from my cheap seats, the donor class wanted Ben Wikler, who had the backing from the lame leadership of Schumer and Jeffries. I like that he is referred to as a "knife fighter." Imagine if Trump had lost--and all the legal crap that ensued. They were ready to "not lose" no matter the outcome. They will be more prepared in two, and four, years. I look at the leadership in Canada and Mexico, and I think, "They're not fooling around." The Trump cabal is not fooling around either. Frankly, I'm not sure there are any Dems who know how to win a street fight and play hard and dirty to win. Ugh!

You guys, Simon Rosenberg, and others have led the way on Substack., encouraging so many other bright minds to join. I love your inclusive approach. I also notice that today you two are rocking the clean-shaven look, and I have to say it looks great. It also distinguishes you from the bearded Trumpers. 🧔‍♂️

The MAGA party are absolutely doing everything from the Nazi playbook, which is Putin's playbook. Those videos they are showing are propaganda and costing the US tax payers how much? This administration has no intention of being efficient, their only goal is the destruction of guardrails and profiting.
