I don't read EVERYTHING, but it seems to me the MEDIA should be referring to Trump's efforts to place himself, his family, and that raft of moron-criminals he wants to pay ABOVE THE LAW.
He hasn't called it that, of course, but the whole thing bears classic performative descriptive-definition of it. NO ACCOUNTABILITY, no transparency, and no apologies, "screw you, and I'll do whatever I want." There is no end to what Trump will do, until Congress, the Courts, and the People, make it end.
I would also like to see well-established progressive channels such as The Contrarian help drive traffic to like-minded creators who are producing laudatory work on almost a daily basis, especially when biting political humor is involved, the type of stuff that really gets under Trump's skin. Two that I favor: the well-constructed monologues of Jimmy Kimmel, and the clever AI-based videos from documentarian Jeremy Newberger under the umbrella of "Mr. Newberger's A.I. Funnies."
In addition: So many non-professional creators are doing such great creative work that there ought to be a competition that invites them to create original political ads for the mid-terms, along the lines of what Frito-Lay did when it sponsored a contest to create ads for its products and then used the winning videos in its advertising. A great way to leverage all the anger that's out there.
Questions re Eligibility for Disbursements from the $1.776 Billion Official Donald J Trump Slush Fund:
1. Would it enhance my eligibility if I have a criminal record, especially for felony fraud convictions and/or falsifying business records, as Trump has?
2. Would someone have a better chance of receiving disbursement if a jury found him liable for sexual molestations, as Trump was?
3. Would a fellow employee of the D0J or White House Staff have a better chance than just any citizen who has a gripe?
4.If I agree in advance to donate 25% of my expected disbursement toward the construction of Trump's gold-encrusted ball room, would that gurantee a disbursement to me?
5 If I agree to kick back 10% to 20% of my disbursement to Donald Trump, Todd Blanche or the Republican Party, would that enhance my eligibility?
6.If I agree in writing to vote Republican down the line in November, would that improve my chances?
7. If I agree to contribute 25% of my disbursement toward the movie sequel "Melania II", would that lock in my chances for a disbursement?
I just finished a book written by Beth Howard, "Song for a Hard-Hit People: A Memoir of Antiracist Solidarity from a Coal Miner's Daughter". Per the Haymarket site "An Appalachian organizer's excavation of the past, her own and her people's, to spark a collective fight for. a future where we all have what we need and deserve". Per Angela Davis "This book will make you cry, laugh, think and feel. But most of all, it will leave you hopeful." She is a member of SURJ (Showing Up for Racial Justice) and has been instrumental in organizing in Eastern KY. Highly recommend!!
I love your commentaries but don't have time to read all of it. If you could write a brief to-the-point summary each day that would be wonderful! Thanks, Steve in Los Angeles
I do like all of your suggestions regarding D-Day, my Dad was in the second wave of D Day, but I will be recovering from a hip replacement. My thoughts and prayers will be with everyone.
Since this Slush Fund is supposed to reimburse people who were hurt by police during the Insurrection on Jan 6, especially; Can the family of Renee Good and Alex Pretti also apply.
They were targeted by immigration police and were wrongfully killed by them.

Thank you.
As always, everything depends on voting. We saw what voting did [or did not do] this past Tuesday.

I will add there are senate and house race runoffs on June 16th in Alabama for both parties.
Districts 1,2,6 and 7 will have separate elections August 11th to decide who the representatives will be.
The 'StopBigData' website does not work. Clicking on a site merely offers a larger map, without any project data or possible actions whatsoever. Pity.

I think they qualify!
