“Remember that all through history, there have been tyrants and murderers, and for a time, they seem invincible. But in the end, they always fall. Always.”

― Mahatma Gandhi, Gandhi: An Autobiography

I asked Grok to explain why Donald seems to "fail upward" so consistently. It answered: "The world is messy. Some 'bad people' face justice, but many don’t, especially those with power, wealth, or loyal followings. Accountability exists but is uneven, shaped by human systems and subjective values. Whether this feels satisfying depends on your expectations and worldview."

So let's consider Gandhi's worldview and remember that all dictators fail. I recently walked in the steps and streets Hitler once commanded with an iron fist. His leadership was all fake, all a facade, all masked in Goebbels' propaganda to create this image of greatness that never existed, but at the time, he seemed invincible.

Thank you, Mary. Keep a stiff upper lip and continue to carry on.

Steven Miller and McKenna Institute’s South Africans, including Elon Musk and Doge immigrants are the force behind this mentality failing President.

There are more supporting him than that. A poll in July 2024 told Biden that 80% of the country did not think he was doing enough to address immigration. He and Harris ignored it and now here we are.

Biden deported more immigrants at this point in his first term. He did it without snatching mothers out of church and trying to take elementary students of school. It’s barbarism and is unconstitutional!

So true. Goes to show how cruel and unnecessary all of this is. To terrorize our country and deport hard-working people who contribute so much every day to their communities is a real crime. So wish Dems would put forth a clear, safe, and humane immigration plan to counter the chaos in our country.

We marvel at that all the time. He is, by far, the luckiest person I’ve ever heard or read about in the entire history of this country. He also seems to be the most miserable, unhappiest person too. It’s the strangest thing.

Let’s call ICE “agents” what they are: thugs and goons. Why are they all wearing masks? Because they are cowards. Just like the SS in Germany. They get away with everything, too.

Mary, you have a bot on your page.

Thanks for the transcript.

Laurence is pointing out (as I type this) that it's worse than people realize. The military never got official orders to go there. They aren't getting paid. If they are injured, that means TriCare won't pay.

If rich people were charged for hiring undocumented, they wouldn’t get the cheap labor and no responsibility for health insurance, soc sec, unemployment, etc. IOW slavery that US economy depends upon. You want to get rid of the national debt? Bring in the migrants. They pay billions in taxes and get none of the benefits.

Alternatively, policies including tax law, has resulted in $50 TRILLION TRANSFERRED FROM BOTTOM 90% to TOP 1% FROM 1981 thru 2021 (Heather Cox Richardson.)

Migrants are NOT the problem. Policies passed by Congress and the billionaires (who fund their campaigns) on the other hand…

His “luck” WILL run out. Whether we see it or not. He won’t be able to handle it. He’s already old, he’s sick/demented, he is empty inside, he’s a sociopath. He can’t handle the slightest bit of criticism, he has NO ego, that’s what everyone gets wrong. He’s weak, he’s ignorant in SO many ways, not just intellectually. Racism and sexism is ignorance. He is aligned with Satan, not sent by God. He’s on a crash course with God and his Judgement Day is coming. He can’t lie, no attorney can get him out of it. The sand is running through the hourglass at a fast pace, faster every day. His time is truly limited. No one in this regime are “Christian”, in fact quite the opposite, those wearing a cross around their necks make me ill. If they were Christian wouldn’t be doing what they’re doing and they wouldn’t support one of the very worst human beings in this country’s history. Karma is a bitch.

Thank you Mary. What's missing from MSM is that SF, Chicago and NYC were also hot spots. Why is LA the focus? Because Donald's a racist pig! It's a bad look attacking while folk ! But it's coming. There's always an element of violence either from agitators or the cops themselves. I've seen it myself.

We need to all get behind Newsome now. He showed the kind of courage we need. Where are all the Dems? Kudos to Mayor Bass

After a decade of Donnie lying no, I can not be sympathetic anymore. This jerk is still not sure about “buyer’s remorse”. What does it take to get it through his extremely thick skull ? No sympathy for this guy at all. Sometimes you cannot help stupid !

Why does Uncle Don keep coasting right through every foul thing he does? I'm no religious zealot and question the existence of supernatural deities who play chess with us mere mortals, but I sincerely believe there are positive and negative energies in play in the universe, and we mortals are subject to their influence. The Don has vast negative powers in his corner that allow him to spread chaos and disorder because that is their mission. In exchange for self-aggrandizement, he has become a willing tool of these negative forces, just as every despot throughout history has done. Call it a battle of good versus evil. I am of the opinion that the newly-elected Pope and the hierarchy of the Catholic Church have identified the Beast for what he is, and view it as such.

Your prayers areca bit late. There have been an estimated 300,000 deaths (so far) around the world due to the shuttering of USAID (per Lawrence O'Donnell tonight).
