While different...there are some striking similarities with Mikhail Gorbachev and Donald Trump. Both attempted (or in Trump's case, is attempting) to revive failed and bankrupt Empires. Gorbachev tried to revive the Soviet Union with perestroika ("restructuring"). Trump is trying to "restructure" America with his tariffs and trade deals. Gorbachev had hardliners that wanted the militant empire to continue. Trump has his neocon friends, along with our government being FILLED with Zionists and war hawks. Here's a VERY IMPORTANT key ... and an unknown that we're dealing with... Gorbachev allowed the Soviet Union to collapse rather than invading satellite countries to put down the protests. The Soviet Union fell without bloodshed, and Gorbachev deserves tremendous credit for it. In America today, our great danger is that Trump does not allow the end of the American Empire without devastating wars with Iran, Russia and China. At the present moment, Trump is doing a bad job. First by attacking Iran, and second by extending the Ukraine war. Let us all hope that Trump reverses this behavior. Russia was able to rebuild their society under Putin. America can be rebuilt too, as long as war is avoided. It was a great thing for the world that the Soviet Empire finally came to an end. So it will be a great relief for the world when America finally closes its 1,000 foreign bases, and brings all the troops home. Let's hope that Trump (and future American presidents) have the grace to do what Gorbachev did. If the militant war hawks prevail, the entire world loses.

Go to your favorite MAGA influencer and search for the word “Ukraine” during the time period when Biden was president. Also do a search for “money laundering” and “not another penny.” There’s not enough time in the day to read them all. All Trump has to do is walk away. Like Epstein, another betrayal.

Anti-AIPAC and funding Israel with our taxes may be a big factor in the next election. On the Left, there’s AOC, who hasn’t voted any money to Israel and has not received money from AIPAC. AOC is a huge danger. The Right will need someone like Tucker or Massie. Of course, our “Israel First” President wants Massie primaried and out of office.

Courage spreads. The vast majority of people wait until it's safe to speak their minds (or take off their masks). But once a few key people start to speak ... like Massie ... like Tucker ... It becomes safe, and the dammed silence breaks.

Mr. President has had quite a week this week: - Covering up Epstein. - Arming Ukraine. - Approving more Covid fake vaccines for kids. - And endorsing Lindsey Graham.

A society without morality is like a body without a soul. Dead. The U.S. government: - Masked kids for no reason. - Mandated they take fake vaccines. - Brainwashed them with gender lies. - Supports mass death of women and children in Gaza. - Is covering up Epstein’s clients. Without a reversal, our society is dead meat.

Remember... We're dealing with the same ruling class that jabbed 75% of the public with fake vaccines! And then acted as if nothing happened...and punished no one. Now they're sweeping Epstein under the rug. AFTER telling us about all the files and videos that they had.

The two pillars of America’s bankruptcy are Empire and Welfare. Both cannot be maintained and one must go. As a libertarian I oppose both, but if forced to choose which is more important to go, it has to be Empire. No more 1,000 foreign bases. No more pretending to police the world. No more foreign aid. No more wars for Israel. Defend America only. With the MULTI-TRILLIONS that will be saved, the welfare state will not have to rip the band-aid off all at once. 50% of Americans right now get some form of federal funds. The goal should always be to gradually decrease dependency. If we get rid of the Empire, the dependents that exist right now will not have to deal with a financial shock. America could avoid the domestic unrest that would likely occur if the welfare state were scrapped all at once. Dump the Empire. Defend America only. And start rebuilding what was once the land of independent creative individuals.

With the two parties, we get tyranny GUARANTEED. The difference is, when the Democrats are in power, everyone knows who the enemy is. Patriotic Americans zero in and focus. However, when Republicans are in power, we still get tyranny, but it’s wrapped in the American flag, with gimmicks, and hats, and B52’s. Resistance to Republican tyranny is dulled by entertainment…especially when the president himself is an entertainer. Patriotic Americans lose their sting and actually cheer on the tyranny. Ideally, Elon’s new party breaks the Republican scam. Patriotic Americans need a home. The Republican Party is 100% not it….and it never was.

Chris Rossini @ChrisRossini · 29m I don't think either side wants to admit the truth, but there is no unity in America ... nor does it appear that it's even possible. In order to have unity, there must be something to unify behind: - God has been pushed to the margins. - The Principles of the Founders are LONG GONE. We don't have a minimal state, but the biggest state in history. - Freedom is gone. The state is in every aspect of life down to the minutia. - Culture has never been homogeneous in America, but with the invasions of illegals, that is being destroyed too. - We have no King, who is above politics, to unify behind. We have rich oligarchs who fight for control of the state. So division is here to stay. The only question is how long can DC keep enough people believing that one little town should rule it all? How long until some state (or states) somewhere say: "We've had enough, we're breaking away"?

Our politicians repeatedly tell us to go scratch because they love Israel unconditionally. We have far too many Americans running around claiming God supports those who support the HISTORIC barbarity of Israel in Gaza. Our State Dept spokeswoman says we’re the greatest country behind Israel. Our president bends over backwards for Israel, to the point of aggressively attacking other nations…on his own. If that’s independence….

Lots of comments on how America needs a new Declaration of Independence. This time from Israel. I'd add to that. We're still not free of the British Empire (the elites). Israel & The British Empire (elites) are very related to each other, as any student of history understands. When the day arrives (hopefully before complete bankruptcy) that America no longer fights wars for Israel or the British... When America closes the 1,000 foreign bases and brings all the troops home... Then (and only then) can we say we are truly independent. We'd once again be a normal sovereign nation ... something that hasn't existed since (at least) the 1890's.

Younger people take note. Perhaps you recently got into politics. You learn about the "parties," and what they each stand for. 🔹"Democrats are for big government, Republicans are for small government." 🔹"Democrats care about the poor. Republicans care about the rich." 🔹"Democrats care about the worker. Republicans care about corporations." 🔹"Democrats are against war. Republicans are warmongers." These are the lies that every generation is exposed to. It's all a deception to get you to pick a side. When you pick a side, your focus is purposefully diverted away from those who control both sides. Think of it like the NFL. The NFL doesn't care if the Eagles or Patriots win. The NFL wins either way. Go ahead, pick a team. You're going to buy jerseys and tickets either way. Well those who control the political parties don't care if you're a Democrat or Republican. They only care that you're one or the other. That's all that matters. Why? Because BOTH SIDES go in the EXACT SAME DIRECTION. So pick a side. It makes no difference. Both sides are for big government. You're watching the "Big Beautiful Bill" happen right now -- LIVE. Republicans are doing it! Neither side cares about the poor or the worker...Covid tyranny was a joint effort. Both parties smashed the poor and small businesses. Both sides are vicious warmongers -- See Ukraine, Gaza, Iran...and a million other examples. So let the scales fall from your eyes. Be the generation that refuse to fall for this very old and effective deception.

Power hates a single principled person. Power wants people who don’t stand for anything. People who put their finger in the wind. Who accept payola. Who seek praise (even if it’s empty) and who want to be liked. But a man who stands for what is right (no matter what) gets under the skin of power more than anything else. Power will then ignore all of the lackeys (even though it has them all under its thumb) and fixate on that one principled man; and try to destroy him.

Only 10 days between these two. Yeah, Massie is the problem. Sure.

If I had to pick a single reason why DC is so emphatic on getting Massie out of office, it would be this: Thomas Massie would NOT fight any wars for Israel. Israel cannot have an America that focuses on itself and makes itself great again (i.e., like it was before the foreign wars). Israel cannot have an America that wants to be a normal country. You can't be normal and constantly drop bombs and fight wars in the Middle East (decade after decade.) It has to be one or the other. Trump has proven that under his watch, America will not be a normal country. It will remain an international busybody. It will continue to bankrupt itself on war and militarism. Thomas Massie is the opposite of this. And Elon Musk now supports him, which tells us something very important about Elon Musk.

Remember this when the next far-left Democrat becomes president... Republicans will flip, and complain about the crazy spending. But it's a scam. Republicans have control NOW...Congress and the presidency. They're spending and going into debt like crazy. Like they always do.

Israel has 3 1/2 years to squeeze Trump (and by extension Americans). Trump has already proven that he’ll commit acts of war for them. Why would Israel waste this opportunity when the next president may not be so pliable?

Israel is going to want to get as much out of Trump as they can. If, as many expect, Trump screws us for Israel, then there’s a possibility AOC will be ushered in as the first female president. She checks major boxes: Young, passionate, energetic, appeals to common person (like Trump), Latina…and… No money from AIPAC, no money to Israel. Commies ride in on an antiwar horse. Commie Obama rode in after Bush fought Iraq for Israel. The question is, how far will Trump go for Israel? In my opinion, he has already gone way too far.

So there is ONE thing to like about AOC? If Trump ruins his presidency for Israel... AOC can stroll in as the: - Anti-war (her support for Ukraine will be ignored) - Free of AIPAC - First woman President. Trump's attachment to Israel can certainly make something like that happen.
