DOGE Is Also Tracking Bureaucratic Regulations

February 17, 2025 Skip

The Deep State Wants to Terminate the Constitution

November 24, 2024 John W. and Nisha Whitehead

This is how it always begins, justified in the name of national security. Mass roundups. Raids. Indefinite detentions in concentration camps. Martial law. The erosion of habeas corpus protections.

American Democracy Died SIXTY (60) Years Ago

March 22, 2024 Ed Mosca

The level of DENIAL on the Right in America is breathtaking and pathetic. It is undeniable that the 2020 election was RIGGED. Yet the bitter-clingers on the Right believe that somehow 2024 will be different … even as they watch the FakeNews (I’m writing this on March 20th) run with yet another BIG LIE, the “bloodbath” hoax.
