     If you've been tuned into any of the congressional news lately, you'll know things have been changing, rapidly. Regardless of how you feel about the changes...it's an entirely new shift if government not seen since early last century. Just about every aspect of American society has been hit by these changes. From education, to parks and nature, to commerce, to trade, to the stock market, to medical research.... my God, there's a lot. My point is anyone and everyone has been affected by these changes.  The silver lining to this dark cloud that we are seeing is that we still have our democracy (until it is gone we still have it and I will operate under such pretenses.). The midterms are going to be a figurative bloodbath. If there's one thing the 2024 election helped show me, it's that the American attention span is short, about four years- give or take. So many people forgot the kind of economic duress Trump put us into during the Covid years.  It was only b...

 The preceding days to this post, the very foundation of the constitution of the United States of America has been challenged by it's sitting president, Donald Trump. By ignoring federal judiciary orders and therefore violating the checks and balances the judiciary is suppose to have on the executive branch. This is an absurd overreach of executive power, even called out by the conservative Chief Justice John Roberts.  You might wonder, "Well, so he ignored one order, is that really a big shift from what's going on right now?" Well I think so. The case involves the use of habeas corpus, something that is even a stain on President Lincoln's presidency. American's famously hate the use of it because if calls for termination of due process and the legal rights provided to normal citizens at normal times.  Whether if you agree on if the people involved in this cases should legally be allowed to be here, is besides the fact. Not only did Trump use habeas corpus, bu...

For anyone who has ever never seen the movie "Saving Private Ryan" towards the end as he's dying, Tom Hank's character tells Private Ryan to "Earn This." Well he's not just talking to Ryan, he's talking to the audience too.  Democracy is something that wasn't just handed to us here in the western world It comes under assault and threat time and time again. The threats we face today might come in different forms than the men who fought in WW2 had but that's just how lucky we've been.  The world we live in is built off of the previous generations work and like house cats after they get fixed, we got fat.  If there comes a time where we have to face the same challenges they did in WW2 I'm not sure American's on the whole are up to the task, whether it's in Europe or closer. I believe the internet is partly too blame for this (there are many many many cogs in the wheel of politics that I'm sure also play their part.) The early...

No matter what you think about what is currently happening in our federal system it is clear that we are reverting back in time. Fundamental systems that once liberated Americans from unjust exploitation are being defunded, dismantled, and eradicated. The systems that Donald Trump and his appointees are tearing apart are just the start. Now here's where opinions will differ by party... This is not good. At all. These aren't reforms of the system, it's a complete crippling of some of the fundamental things that keep us Americans going. So many Americans have been fooled into thinking that the world we live in stands on different legs than it really does. It's easy to see government as just a tool for corruption with the money going towards bloated programs and that does exist but we must remember that with great-oversight the benefits these programs give us VASTLY outweigh the harm they do. MAGA has spent the last eight years working on poking bigger holes in the trust f...

  Our entire modern world is held up by two kinds of institutions: private and governmental.  When looking at reach of the government, in the USA’s early years it was weak  especially by today's standards.  Over time private institutions grew while governmental ones stayed relatively the same.  This allowed private institutions to take advantage of the everyday person as industry in the United Stages grew. At the time politicians cared more about growing American industry than they did about the rights of the working and everyday people. It was eventually through democracy that governmental institutions grew and private ones became checked. It’s not a coincidence that as these institutions  have been built up that life has gotten better for the vast majority of people. Now don’t give me wrong, there’s a lot of really bad companies in pretty much every aspect of our economy.  Corporations  employ lobbyists that keep feeding corruption within our go...
