president

They've chopped down cherry trees and waged full-on war. Riding the highs and lows of the leaders who've tried to Make America Great Again.

Necropolitics
It’s 2024. It's been twenty years since I was in high school. It's been twenty-one years since the invasion of Iraq, and 23 years since the September 11, 2001 attacks.

Idolatry in U.S. Politics
I'm going to put this out there: Is a person who was shot at and missed a hero? From what I have always known a hero is someone who is courageous and/or possesses noble qualities. Such as a person who saves another person's life. A person that will go to any length to help the less fortunate so that they may have a better quality of life. The hero is someone who goes into action to save someone or help someone. Simply dodging a bullet is not a heroic action.

Spring Cleaning
I've been feeling very angry the last few weeks—a noticeable increase from the "angry" of the last several months. My frustration has mounted to volcanic proportions so that I (at the time of starting this piece) have spent three days crying at the slightest inconvenience, screaming in my car, and throwing my fists at inanimate objects, hands shaking from clenching so tight. This isn't necessarily uncharacteristic of me, but it has been uncommon since I found my proper medication nearly ten years ago. What is it that has my therapized and medicated cool demeanor on such an edge these days? It might be easier to ask what doesn't, but I'll do my best to explain everything clearly.

The Orange Bullyboy Plays President for Ratings
There are several items in the news which just will not move along through my brain. Every time I send them on their way, they come back around. I’m beginning to suspect that they’re all related but it is puzzling to me how that could possibly be. If it weren’t for these stories echoing in my “Take a Look at This - NOW” news feed, I’d have sworn that coincidences sent from somewhere in the Matrix is as good a theory for strange happenings as butterfly wings flapping in the Yellow River basin. But there it was, a couple of back-to-back strange happenings and I, obviously, just had to add up the column of unrelated crazy sounding shit to come up with a question. One, I’m either afraid to answer or I’m afraid I know, and just don’t want to look at something that dreary.

We Have A President. Content Warning.
I would like to take a moment to remind the people of America that we have a President. We do not have a king, dictator or other form of leader. The President of the United States is an elected official and therefore a public servant. He is there to serve our wants, needs and desires. He is not a supreme being where every word he states is law.

Pigeon on a Mission
Hungarian Prime-minister Viktor Orbán has done a lot of travel in a short period of time since Hungary became the EU Council rotating chair for six months on July 1, 2024. He calls it a “peace mission.” His X (Twitter) timeline has it all documented in glossy propaganda terms using a lot of euphemisms and strong imagery.

Puppet Masters
Introduction In this complex web of global politics, this idea that the world leaders are actually puppets moving to unseen forces is not some sort of conspiracy theory but fact. The story details real examples of leaders whose agendas are really controlled by party apparatchiks, corporate interests, and special lobby groups, explaining how endemic the corruption is and just how hard making independent decisions really is.
