Yes! A federal judge in Boston has issued a temporary restraining order blocking the Trump administration from revoking Harvard University's ability to enroll international students. This action was taken after the administration attempted to cut off Harvard's access to the Student and Exchange Visitor Information System (SEVIS), a database that manages foreign student visas.

Trump better lose and hope that the judge makes a ruling that he can't do anything like this again. I don't know if he has the power, but if he does, I hope he uses it. Is it possible, that Barron's grades were not good enough for him to get into Harvard? Where is he going to college? College of trump?

I believe he is at NYU. Momma bear stays in NY most of the time to be there for him. I think he is actually living off campus in his home in Trump Tower.

The video with the crosses has been proven now to not be in south africa, but be a memorial to black women who were brutalized raped and killed in the Congo.

Even in their tragic deaths black women get disrespected by whites in this evil regime. Levitt went on and on about the white crosses being white farmers in South Africa when these are tragic deaths of black women, raped, killed Congo. Levitt needs to apologize and be shamed for her lies to the american people about murdered black women. Racist creeps all of them.

The African president said that he didn't recognize the area. I wish he would have walked out on trump and told him that he wasn't there to listen to his lies.

Be aware that Trump is going to send his Magas to cause the peaceful protest to turn into riots so people can be jailed and accused of insurrection.

Those of us who have signed up to attend protests here in Florida have been advised to sit down if things become disorderly.

Do you have specially designated marshalls that can watch over the protest?

They could be trained to be on the outlook for Maggot instigators of violent acts.

I was talking to Angeline Butler she was part of the Civil Rights Movement in the sixties you can look her up she was a member of a group described as The Black Peter Paul and Mary.Tom Wilson who had native American ancestry produced her record Pilgrim's Just Arrived on Columbia Records She said :we had training when we were working with SCLC." She said other organizations too would teach you how to protest properly and not to get too badly hurt . She can be seen in photographs with a young John Lewis where we practiced getting in to good trouble. Angeline who is 84 is teaching up at city college about history of Slaves in South Carolina

Although Trump is the face of this destruction of democracy, these are not his ideas or plans for the most part. He is the Trojan Horse put forth by Russell Vought (who now runs OBM), JD Vance, and the other Heritage Foundation, Project 2025 architects. They aren't looking to adhere to the constitution. Their plan is to remake the US government in their vision. Scary stuff. I wish more light was shed on these shadow people actually pulling the strings. If Trump went away tomorrow, the puppet masters are still in place to carry out their coup.

The Great Gatsby and Today

Some of us may remember F Scott Fitzgerald's novel about the opulence and greed of the roaring 1920's and with Steve's comments today about the parade of wealth at dinner time one cannot but see the parallels of then and now A huge yawning wealth gap has occurred now fueled by the decade's long Fed policy of QE(money printing) to keep the spendthrift government afloat coupled with cryptocurrency speculation Vast amounts of wealth have come about due primarily to these 2 factors and have devalued the fiat dollar to 95% of what it was in the 1970's America is awash with valueless dollars that are buying less and less for the average middle class American

Now witness the dollar trade slipping below 100, equity market fixed with uncertainty, and the Orange Cheeto's tariffs(1931 Smoot Hawley anyone?) History will take care of the Nazis and Cheeto just as it did in the 1930's

History doesn't repeat itself but it certainly rhymes Word to the wise Use your inflated dollars to buy real money which is gold or silver NOT crypto There's going to be a massive wealth transfer in the next 2y

42% approval may be low, but I still cannot get my head around this. 42% are OK with a dictator? Maybe 5% sure, I'd get that, I guess.

My thoughts also!! Folks, 42% is 142 MILLION PEOPLE SUPPORTING AN EVIL, INCOMPETENT PSYCHOPATH. 40%? 30% 20%—still appalling to me that so many could support T and his minions!!! Thousands, OK, maybe that many low information, low IQ, misinformed. But MILLIONS? HOW CAN IT BE????

42% is around 840 people because they only poll around 2,000 people. I am doubtful that 2,000 people represent the voices of 347 million people of which 223 million are adults. Polling questions are quite often skewed and not reflective of any reality, but of the desired outcome. The questions they ask do not allow for you to give your answer. You can only answer the way the want you to, or the other way they want you to. I've been included on several polls.

Then there is the overarching threat of being sued if the number drops below 40. So, remember that when he polls at 42%, that less than 1,000 people are actually stupid enough to have answered in his favor.

There are an estimated 173+ million registered voters. 155 million of them voted in the last election, 77 million for trump - though we have a bunch who have recanted.

Here is the breakdown:

31% of the registered voters are far right wing MAGAs - 53.89 million, 15% are right leaning republican/independents 26.07 million, 27% are left leaning democrat/independents 26.94 million, and 24% are liberal Dems 41.724. 3% are Other - 5.215 million.

If you are a statistician, you would probably look at this data and 1) say that it is incomplete to arrive at 42% of anything, and 2) it is mathematically and statistically impossible to get a 42% approval rating when only 31% of 173.854 million registered voters even like the man.

Take heart in the fact that all of it is is just fuzzy math and meant to make trump feel good about himself. Our challenge is to get the 69% that either don't particularly like him, or don't like him at all, to vote in the midterms and the 2028 presidential election and all of the State elections and get the "reds" out of the business of politics. There is not one single state in the Union that is all red voters, not one. There are democrats and independents in every state.

We need to find them, bring them out of hiding, and band together.

I'm tired of listening to and reading the news. I can hear the news everywhere all day. I'm tired of hearing about Trump. He's not the main one behind all this political mess. It's Stephen Miller for the most part. But nobody seems to want to talk about him.. I don't have the backing or platform to raise this level of awareness for what he's doing. They'll just come and get me and I'll disappear. This is why I support The Meidas Touch Network. It's time to shine the light on Miller and PJ 2025 and how it's being applied right in front of our faces!

have we felt anything financially? Being this is the first time in my life I’ve gone to food pantries for help and friends are giving me groceries after working 37 consecutive years at a full-time IT job and I’m now on Disability for an illness that was not my fault, yeah I think I’m feeling it. When I have to decide between toilet paper and a prescription, I think I’m feeling it. How can anyone regardless how they voted not look at what’s going on and see it what is wrong with MAGA supporters that they cannot see reality are they that lacking in humility that they cannot see the realistic things that are happening in our country? How and when is it going to end? All I can do is hope the universe will not let the Senate pass this bill. Our country is headed towards a serious revolution or civil war. It has to be - this can’t continue. How he ever got in Office is still a shock to me. I still haven’t even gotten over that part yet. if this bill passes so many of my friends and myself will be cut off from Food and Healthcare. They are literally killing people. They are targeting minorities they are targeting LGBTQ. They are targeting anything that is in a WASP. Taking deals for Middle East countries that took part in 911 has everyone forgotten about September 11, 2001? Just what the actual fuck?

I don't know how this bill can change the Medicare as we pay Medicare through our social security. The money comes out of the social security and paid to our Medicare company. I am only thinking that they see monies coming out of their account and not realizing where it came from. Thank you for keeping us up to date with all of these crazy things. Months ago, we did not imagine that our world could change so much. Linda
