Let’s stop calling this 3-ring totalitarian triumvirate a "peace deal", shall we? ​You can’t negotiate peace for a country when you don’t even let them in the room. What’s happening right now is a backroom mugging where Washington, Moscow, and Beijing sit at a table carving up Ukraine without a single Ukrainian in the room—all while our leadership lashes out at Zelenskyy for having the nerve to fight for his own country's survival. ​And for what? Why are we handing Putin a massive lifeline and ditching our own allies? ​For a drop of oil in the bucket.qq Literally. The fuel Putin is promising to send over doesn’t even cover one single day of what American trucks burn through. It won't lower gas prices, it won't help your wallet, and it won't protect American interests. It’s a giveaway for an illusion. ​We are giving away our integrity, selling out a democratic ally, and making America look completely unhinged on the world stage—all for a photo-op and a fake "ceasefire" that Putin is already breaking with fresh missile strikes. ​Our allies aren't looking at us right now thinking we're strong. They're looking at us thinking we've lost our fucking minds. ​And for those of you STILL supporting this lawless madness in order to give him another vehicle for FURTHER self-enrichment, having lost your minds is a very appropriate description.

Michiganders, I HOPE you know the gem you guys have in Abdul. I just saw his latest town hall, where this punk ass got up and began implicitly accusing him of being more beholden to his Muslim faith than he would be the Constitution. This kid actually began talking about Shari'a Law. He knows as little about Shari'a Law as he does the integrity and honesty of a great leader, who happens to be Muslim, as opposed to being a Muslim Leader. He didn't raise his voice, He didn't call this guy what I was SCREAMING at my TV lol, he calmly dismantled his rhetoric, piece by piece until the dude limped out of the hall with his head down. He is a magnificent communicator, he doesn't take a DIME of corporate or PAC money, and there isn't a disingenuous bone in his body. HE is what the Senate needs. Don't let Michigan or the Senate down in 3 weeks!!

I’ve donated to the Innocence Project because too many high-velocity prosecutions are driven by politics, not truth. But when an ideological fanatic commits an act of treason and massacres 13 soldiers in broad daylight, guilt isn't a question. Who the individual is makes zero difference—whst DOES matter is that this individual is entirely non rehabilitable. Anqqq irredeemable act of treason demands absolute accountability. I fully agree with his execution, and it is the only logical answer. What I reject is turning state power into a circus. Livestreaming a military execution isn't justice—it’s pure political perversion. Using state sanctioned death for clout and shock value degrades the law, exploits the victims’ families, and replaces solemn justice with performative reality TV.

Steve Bannon likes to fancy himself an intelligent strategist, but he’s anchored to a pathetic delusion: the fairy tale that Donald Trump is an innocent bystander, and that Democrats exist solely to torment him. His latest whining rubbish regarding unwarranted articles of impeachment and flying subpoenae inspires this commentary. That is where the chasm opens up. Our criticisms of Trump aren't whimsical or manufactured—they are built strictly on verifiable data, what he actually says, and the real-world damage he leaves in his wake every single day. Look no further than Trump's reckless claim that losing Los Angeles or San Diego to an Iranian attack would be a "small price to pay." Beyond the treasonous disregard for millions of American civilian and military lives, it exposes his total military illiteracy: Iran lacks the capability to launch a strike on coastal California, and anything coming near NORAD airspace would end up at the bottom of the North Atlantic ocean. This reveals the fatal flaw in Bannon’s entire worldview. He relies on treating public discourse as pure propaganda, where truth doesn't matter and reality is whatever you can convince people to believe. But when hard reality refutes your narrative—whether it's basic military capabilities, economic math, or constitutional law—cynicism stops looking clever and starts looking like simple delusion. We see the cliff we're being dragged toward. Bannon can pretend otherwise all he wants, but he is championing a path straight to institutional ruin—and he doesn't deserve an ounce of polite fiction for it.

I LOVE it when people who don't know the difference between "there, they're and their" insist on trying to educate me about the differences between "capitalism, communism, and socialism!"
