Ron, this is why the work on MTN matters and matters damn much, because while Trump hides behind golf carts and canned posts, families are staring at utility bills spiked by his energy cuts and shelves emptied by his tariff games. The chaos isn’t abstract; it’s receipts at the register, apprenticeships canceled, and wages gutted. You’re pulling the curtain back on how power really works and that’s what keeps people here, reading, organizing, refusing to be gaslit. And it keeps us committed to the truth and nothing but the unvarnished truth on our own platforms. www.xplisset.com

And don't forget who made and controls Shady Vance: Peter Thiel. If you're not familiar with who he is, you need to be; he's inserting himself and his Palantir spyware into our government, he doesn't believe in democracy or allowing women to vote. From Gil Duran:

"Last week, a Peter Thiel crony became acting director of Centers for Disease Control (CDC).

"Jim O'Neill was previously CEO of the Thiel Foundation and was managing director for Thiel's Clarium Capital and Mithril Capital (where JD Vance also worked). He also co-founded the Thiel Fellowship, which pays young people to skip college and become tech overlords.

"Kiera Butler of Mother Jones sums it up:

A longtime associate of billionaire investor Peter Thiel, O’Neill comes not from a background in epidemiology or medicine but from Silicon Valley’s world of venture capital and techno-utopianism. He is especially well-connected in the longevity movement, which seeks to extend human lifespans, and, to a lesser extent, to the “network state” vision of decentralized techno-governance championed by Thiel and other influential Silicon Valley figures.

President Obama’s Speech at the Democratic National Convention on August 19, 2020

NYT https://tinyurl.com/2k8jy22v

I never expected that my successor would embrace my vision or continue my policies. I did hope, for the sake of our country, that Donald Trump might show some interest in taking the job seriously, that he might come to feel the weight of the office and discover some reverence for the democracy that had been placed in his care.

But he never did. For close to four years now, he’s shown no interest in putting in the work; no interest in finding common ground; no interest in using the awesome power of his office to help anyone but himself and his friends; no interest in treating the presidency as anything but one more reality show that he can use to get the attention he craves.

Donald Trump hasn’t grown into the job because he can’t. And the consequences of that failure are severe: 170,000 Americans dead, millions of jobs gone while those at the top take in more than ever. Our worst impulses unleashed, our proud reputation around the world badly diminished and our democratic institutions threatened like never before.

Tonight, I am asking you … to embrace your own responsibility as citizens — to make sure that the basic tenets of our democracy endure.

Because that’s what’s at stake right now. Our democracy.
