UNCOMFORTABLY NUMB OR NEVER SUCCUMB? WHICH WILL YOU CHOOSE?
Not a day goes by where the news doesn't disgust me. What's worse is that no matter how insane or cruel, it no longer comes as a surprise. The once unbelievable has become the norm.
We’ve come to expect dishonesty and corruption from our politicians, as well as the implementation of underhanded policies behind the scenes. America has a history of meddling in foreign countries’ politics, orchestrating coups and supporting dictators, if these actions supported U.S. dominance. Under Trump and his criminal Republican Regime, the same tactics have come home to roost and subvert the rights of American citizens.
The fact that human beings are suffering and dying is downplayed constantly by this administration’s greed and power lust. The hypocrisy of claiming to fight antisemitism and supporting the Israeli genocide of Palestinians, while Neo Nazis frequent Mara Lago is stunning. The abandonment of Ukraine as it fights for survival against Russian hostilities is despicable, and obviously motivated by Trump’s and the majority of his Cabinet Comrades’ fealty to Putin.
The DOGE desecration of departments like USAID, will continue to erode America’s reputation and the soft power gained through humanitarian efforts worldwide. Instead, this regime’s callous lack of concern for the survival of others in foreign nations will foster a whole new generation of “Death to America,” chanting terrorists.
The across the board dismantling of programs customarily lauded as mandatory and compassionate social safety nets at home, will further condemn the less fortunate among us to suffering, hunger and even death. The denial of climate change and the erasure of environmental protections, will lead to the exploitation of treasured conservation land and national parks and rob our children of their rightful inheritance.
Trump’s racist persecution and purge of immigrants, while serving to pacify the most extreme MAGA members of his base, is decimating families in the most cruel and humiliating ways. Deporting those the Regime considers sub human is not only a tragedy for those hard working people simply trying for a better future, it will also prove disastorous to farmers and other employers who rely heavily on the labours of those immigrants.
The deployment of 2,000 National Guard to quell protests in Los Angeles is a disgrace. Trump is salivating at the opportunity to demonstrate his control over the U.S. military. Pete Hegseth, the white nationalist head of the Department of Defence has already indicated that the Marines are ready to join in with the subversion of legal protests.
Trump’s Border Czar Tom Homan is happily using ICE and wrongfully pardoned J6 insurrections, to fill domestic GEO Corp concentration camps. Homan served as an adviser to GEO, before being appointed Border Czar by Trump. GEO was a major contributor to a PAC supporting Trump’s reelection. It’s worth noting that Attorney General Pam Bondi served as a lobbyist for Geo as well.
In mere months, Republicans have accomplished what they have desired for decades. They have erased human rights and empathy for others from their political vocabulary. They intend to dismantle the remnants of democracy completely, if their Big Bullshit Bill passes in the Senate.
Everyone knew everything despicable about Trump, and yet here we are, in autocratic hell. It's hard to believe that some of our species has not evolved beyond barbaric tribalism. We must stand against the rampant corruption. We must rescue, preserve and cherish the freedoms we are entitled to, before the soulless megalomaniacs destroy all that is priceless and honourable.

Weak authoritarians fear empathy, a sense of justice and morality, love for others, and collective action. All they have is force and lies. They may feel immensely empowered right now, but those protesting them are on the right side of history. A reckoning will come for the aggressors as more Americans open their eyes to the criminal nature of this administration.
