Opening Narration – Rod Serling’s voice
A man, in a dark suit, steps into frame. A cigarette glows, smoke curls. His voice is calm, clipped, and merciless.
“America. The year is 2035. A land once united by creed, now divided by creed. Not by rivers or borders, but by signs in the window. What once read ‘Whites Only’ now reads ‘MAGA Only’. What once locked out the color of skin now locks out the color of belief. Tonight, you walk a street where neon burns not with welcome, but with warning. Tonight… you enter the Twilight Zone.”
Downtown anywhere, USA.
A café door with a sign: “No MAGA Served.”
Across the street, a diner window with its reply: “Liberals Not Welcome.”
The sidewalks are full. The eyes are empty.
Signs once used to keep out strangers now keep out neighbors.
And neighbors, divided long enough, become enemies.
The fracture began decades earlier. 2016. A man with no patience for compromise, and even less for institutions, made grievance a throne and crowned himself its king. He called it MAGA. Others called it salvation. What it became was metastasis.
But the split—ah, the split—was older than the man. For decades, blue states sent more dollars to Washington than they ever saw again. They funded highways in Alabama, farm checks in Iowa, and sprawling military bases in Texas. It was charity without a name, an arrangement as invisible as it was necessary. Blue built. Red borrowed. And the bargain held.
Until one day, it didn’t!
Now to the farmlands
Tractors rust. Engines cold. Credit gone.
Farmers of MAGA country, once promised greatness, could no longer afford the machines their fathers drove. Debt piled up. Banks closed in. And what remained was sweat.
Men and women bent their backs to the soil, planting by hand, hoeing by hand, harvesting by hand. A way of life thought buried in the 19th century returned in the 21st.
And still, it was hailed as a blessing in the blue states. MAGA, was their religion of self-righteousness. Providing solace, but not substance.
They called it “revival.”
“Honest work for honest hands.”
But the truth was harsher: stoop labor was all that was left.
For many, the ancestors of the “masters” of the plantations were now toiling in the fields, while the ancestors of the enslaved had moved on, settled in the “liberal” blue states as equals, and flourished. Jim Crow was nowhere to be found.
Meanwhile, in the other America, the harvest was commanded by drones. Crops were monitored by satellites, machines guided by AI. Food was cheap. Profits rich. Futures secured.
One America lived in tomorrow. The other in yesterday.
The split was written most clearly in the lives of women.
In the blue states, women flourished.
They built companies.
They ran universities.
They piloted ships to Mars.
In the red states, women diminished.
They stayed home.
They raised children.
They kept the cheap beer cold for husbands returning from the fields.
For one blue America, daughters were leaders.
For the other, daughters were wombs.
And when questions were asked—why did one side rise while the other fell?—the answers were not found in textbooks but in pulpits.
Faith filled the vacuum where opportunity had fled. Megachurches promised that struggle was virtue, that pain was prophecy, that poverty was proof of divine testing.
No hospitals? The Lord will heal.
No schools? The Bible will teach.
No wages? Heaven will pay.
A second coming was always on the horizon.
Always promised.
Never arriving.
Even Washington split
One half gleamed—steel towers, glass lobbies, buzzing with technocrats.
The other half crumbled—marble cracked, offices shuttered, flags unraised.
The Capitol itself became a mirror of the republic: half alive, half dead.
Beyond America’s shores, life went on.
The other ninety-six percent of humanity, once tethered to the fortunes of the United States, found new partners, new patterns, new power.
The blue states, acting like a nation of their own, joined the world stage as equals. They sold grain to Europe, shared biotech with Asia, and built research hubs with Africa. They opened their doors to culture, trade, and students.
The red states—cut off, insular, angry—had nothing to sell but nostalgia. Their allies were sermons. Their exports, grievance. Their imports, promises that never arrived.
And while one half of America clung to the hope of a second coming, the rest of the world discovered something simpler: the joy of each other.
On the streets, the signs became banners. The banners became chants. The chants became clashes.
America’s first civil war was fought with muskets, over chains of iron.
The second… was taking shape over chains of thought.
Closing Narration – Serling’s voice
The man in the dark suit steps back into frame. He speaks
“This is America, 2035. A country that mistook politics for identity, and identity for destiny. A country that painted its fracture not in borders on a map, but in signs on a window. Where a café closed its door not to strangers, but to neighbors. And where a nation that once pledged itself indivisible now prays for deliverance, one half from the other.
The world has moved on. Much of the ninety-six percent living in a democratic form of society builds, trades, celebrates, and prospers—while America learns what it means to be left behind. Ironically, the nations that evolved into democracies took the original American constitution and made it their rulebook for prosperity and a better life.
The signs may be words. Or they may be omens. Either way, they point not to a future, but to a warning. Because when a nation forgets its union… it remembers only its enemies.
And that is the moment it steps… into the Twilight Zone.”

It may seem like the Twilight Zone because it shouldn’t be happening and is but we’ve seen this hatred occur throughout history propagated by the creation of scapegoats and lies!
Here’s a reminder of some of it for those who proudly defend and promote it-

If you had relatives who fought Fascism in WWII but support it here and now via MAGA you are no Patriot and are most definitely Un American!
When you ask people about happiness, loneliness, having a sense of purpose and so on the results are pretty bleak. But in survey after survey over multiple years, it’s absolutely devastating in blue, urban areas. It’s excessively bad for liberal women, who report the highest level of unhappiness. And these surveys are clocking people on their own terms, not what some dim guy in Sedona thinks is important.
There’s still an uptick in dissatisfaction in rural, red areas but it’s far less pronounced. The townies you ridicule are happier with deeper and more meaningful connections, and lives that feel more purposeful. The deplorables are doing just fine and really don’t care about you or your fantasies about 2035. We’re organizing and having fun. We’re trying to preserve special places like Sedona, for example, instead of letting you clowns wreck it with runaway, endless development.
As AI ramps productivity for white collar work, and displaces the need for most college, the Right Turn will probably become even more pronounced, particularly in blue cities. Meanwhile, amazing and lucrative careers in trades, mechanical engineering, and equipment technicians will thrive. Entrepreneurship will be even easier.
As you read last rites on the US, consider this: the AI tech stack today is largely on an American foundation and ecosystem. Bet against Microsoft, Google, Nvidia, and Amazon if you wish, but I doubt your boomer portfolio would dare.
And as you read last rites on red states in particular, consider this: the overwhelming amount of advanced compute power and data center builds are in red states. It’s not even close. The same is true for battery factories. It looks like it’s going to be true to advanced robotics. So you better pray that red states aren’t “cut off, insular, and angry” and want to sell more than nostalgia.
I f-ing love just how misguided and unearned your hubris is. And I’m optimistic about 2035.
I dont see a split at all….I see us all paying for MAGAs stupidity.
After DOGE, stealing money and firing people that help us.
They have gone after the weak and poor, with cuts to Medicade.
Then SS get gutted, and Medicare “cost to much”
All middle class jobs will completely go, taken by AI and robots.
Most will have nothing, the few have it all!
Fox will find the new boogie man to blame for your problems.
Thats what I see. When one is so stupid, they vote against their own best self interests, and have since Reagan.
It was only a matter of time. We told you so, but your pride and ignorance doubled down on stupid!
I mean this exact thing has been happening since 1980, but most didnt pay attention, some didnt care, some think it can never happen to them.
Then it does, and we all paid the price from stupid.
Great retort WS Dave.Only this nonsense began with Criminal DICK Nixon not Criminal Ronnie Raygun. They had to perfect their attempts to break laws and get away with it and settled upon stacking the courts, especially the SCOTUS with corrupt lying sycophants who granted them full immunity from their Lies, Crimes and Corruption! Just ask DICK Nixon Tramp Stamp boy toy Criminal Roger Stone!
Gee, that was depressing.
I’d like to think the American Experiment is alive and well. As long as we follow our laws and don’t selectively pick the ones we want to obey and the ones some want to ignore. Sorry, our country doesn’t work that way. And it has brought the crazies out. And people are dying.
There’s a lot of strife and hate going on, and we observe the conflicts that are happening. Maybe a lot less Hitler and Nazi talk. Most wielding these terms have zero clue what they stand for…except they represent hate and emotion and parrot MSNBC, NYT, CNN, NBC and other main stream media pundits.
I haven’t seen any “NO liberals allowed” on restaurant windows. We have observed Conservatives, MAGA (and please tell us all what’s wrong with Making America Great AgIn) hassled in restaurants. Recently a group of women had to be removed when Vance and Trump were at a restaurant, and Sarah Sanders was told she wasn’t welcome, and you got clowns like Maxine Waters telling supporters to “get in their face”.
No, 2035 isn’t going to remotely look like this storybook fantasy. This wouldn’t even make a good movie script.
America is coming out of 4 years of darkness, People are waking up to the green scam. Electrical energy is up 30 to 65% over the past 4 years. Nuclear is finally getting attention. Democrats still don’t get it, popularity hovering around 30%. They’re still tying to bring back the huge waste and fraud program they lost in the Big Beautiful Bill.
Speaking of which, no, the rich didn’t benefit. Health care affected the illegals, should not be here anyway. The mis information is staggering. And most of the negative points are just MSNBC talking points. A failed network.
More good stuff has happened in the the last 8 months than any other time in history. But look where we started. Just think what we could accomplish with a little cooperation from the side that has zero ideas.
As long as you remember why we escaped from Europe, American history should be taught again, and don’t try to mirror what they do, we will be just fine.
“More good stuff has happened in the the last 8 months than any other time in history. But look where we started. Just think what we could accomplish with a little cooperation from the side that has zero ideas”
Name one “good thing” that happened in the past 8 months than any other time in history that was in keeping with the word of Christ, not racist, not greedy, not corrupt, not lying or grifting. Name one of your alledged monumental and historical “good things”! You call Democrats the party with no ideas, you mean racist, fascist, fake Christian ideas? No they do not have any only MAGA very much does!
Want to know what a “good historical thing?” One was the successful destruction of a Fascist DICKtator and his Nazi war machine. But MAGA would call that a loss today.
Again, don’t like the Nazi and Fascist references? To damned bad! That’s what anti Fascism is, calling out fascist and haters. Can’t take it, don’t act like one or support those pushing the racist fascist agendas of MAGA, Project 2025 and your Convicted Sex Offender Felon (Convicted by a jury of his peers as per law).

I think Make America Great is a great idea.
I think people should be allowed to immigrate, but they don’t get welfare, free medical care, food stamps., have to learn English and assimilate. Their kids are not citizens until the parents become citizens.
Allowing people to walk in and get freebies, especially freebies that are not available to American Citizens is just a recipe for conflict, which is part of the divide and conquer the ruling elite have used forever.
The US is not magic dirt, import the third world, put them in communities with Sahria law, let them keep their customs and languages, pay them to reproduce, and you become the third world. We currently have two congress members that say they represent Somalia. Even more in congress that represent Israel first. Send them to the place they represent.
Past immigrants did not get free housing, medical care , they had to work. Work is a good thing.
If you commit a crime, you get immediate repatriation.
If an employer hires an illegal, the employer gets 1 year in jail and a million dollar fine.
If you want less traffic, cheaper homes and less crime, there are easy solutions.
And when you apply all of those principles to everyone then perhaps you will have some validity. Migrants even illegal ones do work which is why ICE and DHS has been raiding places that employ them and they pay taxes sans benefits.
“commit a crime, you get repatriation”. Unless of course you are white and wealthy then it’s okie dokie right?
Try again without the bias and hatred of migrants who are no different than your migrant ancestors.
“If an employer hires an illegal, the employer gets 1 year in jail and a million dollar fine”
Ha, Trump would go broke considering all of the illegals he’s hired for his Mar a Lego Eagles Nest and all his other fugly gold gilded properties.perhaps we should deport him and all others who commit crimes and hire illegal migrants?
I know Trump is innocent he’s never committed any crimes. It’s all made up by a deep state government 20 years ago with things like his signature on a birthday card at Epstein Island . Wait who was President 20 years ago you ask? Why it was Republican George “W” Bush that’s who! Man is he evil or what? Planting evidence and deep state agents in our government solely to go after Convicted Sex Offender Felon Donald J Trump. And I just thought W like to start wars based upon lies and fake evidence while being an artist of the disfigured he sent to war under false pretenses. Oh well that’s the GOP and MAGA for ya, no morals, no honesty and zero humanity!
Past immigrants did not get free housing, medical care , they had to work. Work is a good thing.
Present Immigrants DO NOT either Mr Anti Migrant Fear Monger Propagandist. Sure glad I didn’t waste a vote on you-Hater!
Fact Sheet: Immigrants and Public Benefits
Are undocumented immigrants eligible for federal public benefit programs?
Generally no. Undocumented immigrants, including DACA holders, are ineligible to
receive most federal public benefits, including means-tested benefits such as Supplemental
Nutrition Assistance Program (SNAP, sometimes referred to as food stamps), regular Medicaid,
Supplemental Security Income (SSI), and Temporary Assistance for Needy Families (TANF).
Undocumented immigrants are ineligible for health care subsidies under the Affordable Care Act
(ACA) and are prohibited from purchasing unsubsidized health coverage on ACA exchanges.
Undocumented immigrants may be eligible for a handful of benefits that are deemed necessary to
protect life or guarantee safety in dire situations, such as emergency Medicaid, access to treatment
in hospital emergency rooms, or access to healthcare and nutrition programs under the Special
Supplemental Nutrition Program for Women, Infants, and Children (WIC).
Are legal immigrants eligible for federal public benefit programs?
Only those with lawful permanent resident (LPR) status, but not until they have
resided as a legal resident for five years. LPRs – sometimes referred to as green card
holders – do not have full access to all public benefit programs and are subject to limitations
before being eligible for federal means-tested benefits, including Medicaid, the Children’s Health
Insurance Program (CHIP), TANF, SNAP, and SSI. Such limitations include the “five-year bar,”
which requires the individual to have maintained LPR status in the U.S. for five years before being
eligible for benefits. However, under some federal benefit programs, this requirement can be
bypassed when the recipient has worked 40 quarters under a visa. Quarters worked by parents
when the immigrant was a dependent child, or by a spouse while married to the immigrant, count
towards the immigrant’s 40 quarters.
LPRs are eligible to apply for Medicare and Public/“Section 8” Housing as well, as long as the five-
year bar is fulfilled. For LPRs to become eligible for Social Security benefits for both retirement
and disability, they are required to have completed 40 quarters of work in addition to having
maintained LPR status for five years.
Certain additional categories of immigrants, specifically refugees, asylum seekers, and victims of
human trafficking or domestic violence have the same eligibility requirements for federal benefits
as LPRs. Individuals on non-immigrant and temporary visa holders are ineligible for benefits.
Are immigrants eligible for state benefit programs?
In some states, yes. Twenty-six states make immigrants eligible for state-funded benefit
programs. Most of these states either offer assistance to families or provide access to healthcare
to otherwise uninsured immigrants. Examples of these programs are New York’s Safety Net
Assistance, California’s CalFresh Food Assistance Program, and California’s Cash Assistance
Program for Immigrants (CAPI).
What is the protocol for “mixed-status families,” i.e., undocumented parents with
citizen children?
Like any U.S.-born citizen, U.S. citizen children of undocumented parents can
received federal benefits if they meet eligibility requirements without penalty.
Similarly, the child’s eligibility does not change their parents’ or any other family members’
eligibility for that benefit.
How much do legal immigrants use federal public benefit programs?
Legal immigrants use federal public benefit programs at lower rates than U.S.-born
citizens. As recently as 2013, the rate at which non-citizens have used public benefit programs
was less than that of U.S.-born citizens. For example, 32.5 percent of native-born citizen adults
receive SNAP benefits compared to 25.4 percent of naturalized citizen adults and 29 percent of
noncitizen adults. In addition to immigrants’ lower rate of SNAP usage, they also receive lower
benefit values, costing the program less.
How much do immigrants contribute to support public benefits programs?
Both documented and undocumented immigrants pay more into public benefit
programs than they take out. According to Institute on Taxation and Economic Policy,
undocumented immigrants contribute an estimated $11.74 billion to state and local economies
each year. However, undocumented immigrants are not eligible for many of the federal or state
benefits that their tax dollars help fund.
Additionally, a few states have completed studies demonstrating that immigrants pay more in
taxes than they receive in government services and benefits. A study in Arizona found that the
state’s immigrants generate $2.4 billion in tax revenue per year, which more than offsets the $1.4
billion in their use of benefit programs. Another study in Florida estimated that, on a per capita
basis, immigrants in the state pay nearly $1,500 more in taxes per capita than they receive in
public benefits.
Do undocumented children have access to a public education?
Yes. In accordance with the Supreme Court ruling in Plyer v. Doe, all immigrant children,
regardless of status, have access to a public education and are eligible to attend public schools for
grades K-12. Undocumented immigrants are also eligible for the Head Start program as it is not
considered a federal public benefit program – any child who is otherwise eligible, regardless of
their or their parents’ immigration status, may enroll in Head Start or Early Head Start.

Gee and the GOP, Tea Party and MAGA called the left “Snowflakes” for decades. You’re the epitome of one. We know what a fascist and fascism very much are when we see it. The hate and strife are purposeful being created by fascist and fascism via foreign and domestic Alt Right Nationalist media outlets and propaganda, the rascal based deportations of minorities while ignoring “the worst of the worst”- heavily armed and violent anti government WHITE Surpremacists, your homophobia anti gay hate, your hatred of social support systems such as SSA and Medicare while falsely blaming migrants for their demise while under full control of the MAGA majority, stripping minorities of civil and human rights, defense of monstrous killer dictators like Putin, Orban, Netanyahu and Ahmed al-Sharaa all of which have American blood on their fascist hands.
Here’s the definition of Fascism tell us all exactly which part(s) do not apply to you and MAGA-
A fascist is an individual who believes in or supports fascism, a far-right, authoritarian, and ultranationalist political ideology. In a fascist system, a dictatorial leader holds absolute power, suppresses opposition, and emphasizes the subordination of the individual to the state.
Core characteristics of a fascist ideology
Dictatorial leadership and cult of personality: A single, all-powerful leader is glorified and presented as infallible. All public activity is expected to serve the regime and its leader.
Extreme nationalism: The ideology exalts the nation above the individual, often defining it in terms of a specific race or heritage. It is frequently rooted in a sense of past national decline or humiliation.
Militarism: Fascists glorify the military and use paramilitary groups to enforce their will and suppress dissent. They often employ violence and intimidation to achieve political goals.
Suppression of opposition: Fascist regimes forbid and forcibly suppress any disagreement or opposition to the government. This includes persecuting or killing minority groups and political opponents.
Scapegoating: Fascists often create a sense of national unity by identifying “enemies” or scapegoats, such as minority groups or immigrants, to blame for the nation’s problems.
State control over the economy: While allowing for private property, the government exerts heavy control over business and labor to serve national interests. Labor unions are typically suppressed.
Control of information: Fascist governments control mass media and propaganda to promote their ideology and undermine objective truth.
Historical examples
The term fascist originated with Benito Mussolini’s political movement in Italy in the early 20th century. Other historical examples of fascist and ultranationalist military dictatorships include Nazi Germany under Adolf Hitler and Francisco Franco’s Spain.
We’ll all be waiting for your spin on what a fascist is.
“As long as you remember why we escaped from Europe”
You mean to escape
a Tyrannical Dictatorship
Forced Christianity
Excessive Taxation of the poor while the Wealthy wallowed in riches
Those things? Because that’s historically why Europeans fled Europe during the theft of this country-
Europeans fled to America due to “push” factors like economic hardship, such as poverty, job shortages, and famine, combined with political instability and religious or ethnic persecution in their homelands. “Pull” factors in America included the promise of land ownership, economic opportunity, the pursuit of freedom and a better life (the “American Dream”), and relative religious freedom compared to Europe. Technological advancements also made the long journey more feasible.
Economic Factors
Poverty and Famine:
Many Europeans faced severe poverty, food shortages, and the devastating impacts of events like the Irish Potato Famine, seeking a more prosperous life.
Land and Job Opportunities:
The “American Dream” promised land ownership, and as Europe became overcrowded, the availability of abundant land in America was a strong incentive to move.
Industrialization:
While industrialization created wealth for some, it also led to job displacement for others, pushing them to emigrate in search of work, especially in the growing American economy.
Political and Social Factors
Political Unrest and Persecution:
Many fled from oppressive governments, revolutions, and political turmoil in their homelands, seeking greater freedom.
Religious Freedom:
Groups like the Pilgrims, Puritans, and many minority religions sought refuge from persecution or established state churches to practice their faith freely.
Discrimination:
Ethnic and religious minorities, such as Eastern European Jews, faced violent pogroms and systemic discrimination, driving them to the U.S. as a primary destination.
DEFINITELY NOT TO START A NEW TYRANNICAL FASCIST GOVERNMENT!
“Democrats still don’t get it, popularity hovering around 30%“
Right there with King Ding a ling and his dismal 38% POTUS approval rating.
Tweedle Dee and Humpty Dumpyy Commander of Thieves talk down to our War Fighters who have been fighting M’erica’s wars both overt and Clandestine for the past 4-5 Decades. Not about the Code of Conduct, Geneva Conventions or anything relevant. Just about how to purge women and minorities out of Combat roles neither of these two buffoons has ever attempted to fill, most especially the Orange Draft Dodger. And how to use the military to combat US Citizens who do not want this country taken over by a fascist authoritarian like King Trump Inc. Then the convicted felon POTUS proceeded to ramble and sputter for 40 mins about Biden’s auto pen, green (clean) energy destroying the world and all of his usual lies and nonsense about J6 and his insurrection against the Capitol.
He’s seeking 100% loyalty from our military leadership just like Hitler demanded of his Generals and Admirals. Fortunately back then Germany still had Generals with the intestinal fortitude to do whatever they could to prevent a mad man from decimating their country. Unfortunately their efforts failed and Germany still was decimated. It’s not too late for our military leadership to stand up to the Draft Dodger and explain laws like Posse Comitatus, the UCMJ & MCM, Laws of Land Warfare and Geneva Conventions to these two hate filled idiots.
We cannot be American and be loyal Nazi’s beholden to a convicted felon POTUS with NO guardrails at the same time. The two are exact opposites or at least they were until MAGA and Trump destroyed it all! How embarrassing! How disgraceful they all are in the eyes of the sane world!

When the government uses armed troops with Deadly Force Authorized to go after political dissidents it is a Tyrannical Authoritarian Government. The crimes just keep coming and coming and the perpetrators just think people will remain silent! Not a f-ing chance! And it is absolutely absurd for people to be nice and kiss their asses as they destroy our country. For years these fanatics whined and cried about the government coming to take their military assault weapons they don’t need away. Or that the freakin UN was going to come do it. It was just a sales pitch from the NRA on behalf of their Criminal Arms Manufacturer big money donors to scare people into stockpiling assault weapons and ammunition.
Seems to me that MAGA loves to say “others” are doing the very things they accuse others of just like Epstein Island, Pizza Gate, most of the pedophilia and child sex traffickers in the US, Lying under Oath, Insurrection, Theft of Classified Materials, Golfing 24/7 and billions of dollars grifted in violation of the emoluments Act.
It’s all diversion to take eyes off of the most corrupt government this country has ever had since Nixon, Reagan and the Bush crime syndicates. As I’ve repeatedly stated, they are perfected the Art of The Steal so they don’t have embarrassing impeachments, arrests and resignations they’ll have to pardon Again Again.
Trump is estatic about the shut down. He gets to put more middle and lower class government employees out of work permanently and doesn’t have to answer questions about the MIA Epstein Files. He can focus on being the best Tyrant he can be by sending troops to incite violence and round up political opponents and continue blowing civilian fishing boats off the coast of Venezuela to smithereens without a shred of evidence pointing to the crimes he accuses them of. Yep life is just grand for our first Convicted Felon Sex Offender Billionaire POTUS and his sycophantic billionaire minions!

Not since Thomas Jefferson vs. Aron Burr, Criminal Nixon and Criminal Attorney General John Mitchell has the US had a POTUS and Attorney General abuse their positions of unchecked power so flagrantly and yet pretend to be of Law and Order. And they call themselves “Patriots”! 🤮🤡🤮🤡
So much for the MAGA sing song “States Rights”! Once again it’s “do as we say not as we do”! Fortunately like everything King Ding a Ling does it is backfiring right in his bloated orange clown face. Who was it that said Trump had achieved “historically significant success”? He’s done absolutely nothing except load his ill gained treasures into his private vault, piss off the entire planet with hateful rhetoric and racist policies and break law after law! But that’s what you voted for him to do right MAGA? You should change your lane moniker from MAGA to MTAWK (Making Trump a Wealthy King) because that is precisely what your votes for his hineyass has done and nothing more or less. Trump drained the swamp of DC turtles and frogs and loaded it to the hilt with oligarch snakes and gators robbing the country blind!

Trump says deal to end Gaza war is ‘very close’
https://apple.news/AvnM7OEOYQOij2H1tLQZxBg
King “No Wars” who aided Netanyahu’s systematic eradication of Gaza and Gazan’s thinks that should a ceasefire be declared that he will be presented a Nobel Peace Prize- Not a chance! They don’t give tyrants peace prizes for ending wars they helped create. And as for his fictional allegations of already having intervened in and stopped 7 wars in 7 months is laughable on its face! He hasn’t stopped a single conflict especially non existent ones between countries who were never at war with one another and are separated by thousands of miles such as Israel and Kosovo. He claims to be a “Peacemaker and Uniter Extraordinaire” when in reality he is hate filled, racist, divisive and does nothing unless he gets money in his own pockets out of the deal. He’s Bigly responsible for most of the division in this country and labels his own citizens “Enemies of the State” “Insurrectionist” “Terrorist” and many other hate laden terms that actually apply to he and he alone! It’s the old rubber vs glue schtick to divert eyes and ears from his own lies, corruption and hateful divisiveness.
I’m sure he’ll have a replica of a Nobel crafted with his name on it and claim he legitimately earned it just as he’s done with Fake Time Magazine Covers and his bogus claims of winning Man of The Year in Michigan.
In short he’s a shameless hateful televangelist selling his constituents lies for money while destroying our Democracy, Constitution and law.
Like I said, Nobel’s are not given to Tyrants who start or assist in wars of genocide against others. It’s not like Bank robbers get Crime Stopper Awards if they turn themselves in, that same logic applies here. He won’t get one for Ukraine either because quite frankly he’s aided and abetted Putin in his war upon Ukraine for years now and has put up roadblock after roadblock for Zelenskyy in order to prevent Ukraine from receiving the tools necessary to win.
You have to be Nobel to earn a Nobel, not a self centered grifter and convicted felon!

Makes perfect sense”Alternative Sense!” Let’s put thousands out of work while the economy is tanking rapidly. And all because of King Looney Toon’s BBB, DOGE and his ignorant failing tariff policies which supposedly were done to save money but have resulted in billions of lost revenue, thousands of jobs lost and an economy rapidly spinning out of control. Great job MAGA! And if you even think to blame the Democrats because they don’t believe a word MAGA has to say and won’t cave on their shutdown demands, one only need look back to Mitch McConnell’s lies and skullduggery to put Neil Gorsuch on the SCOTUS Bench. Who in their right mind would believe a word the Insurrectionist, Project 2025 party of lies, grift, hate and corruption has to say or offer.

National Guard deployment still blocked in Illinois after federal appeals court steps in Saturday

https://apple.news/AwdUuzI1GQmqdYylSNiwjIw
“impermissibly second-guessed the Commander in Chief.” WTF? I know he thinks himself a King but he’s not one (not yet thankfully) and the DOJ is not beholden to his Majesty. Not by chain of command and not by any other authority he has. If I were Judge Perry I’d tell them all to take a hike and stand firmly against violating the Constitution by deploying armed military personnel against M’erican civilians. I second guess everything the Orange Buffoon does on a daily basis because A) he’s a Convicted Felon and Insurrectionist and B) he lies through his teeth everyday all day. So I can only imagine what Judge Perry (Appointed and Anointed by King Dingle Berry) must be thinking as she is being threatened to violate the Constitution and other applicable laws by the office of King numb nuts and his sycophantic Attorney General who puts the POTUS and his crimes over the rule of law.
Everyone is still waiting for that Epstein “Client List” Pam Blondie just admitted under oath before Congress that she did in fact have a “client list” sitting on her desk when she stated so the first time she said she had it “sitting on her desk” many months ago. She testified that she had “not reviewed it!” So where did it go? When will it be presented un redacted and in full as she and the Golden Fleecer promised and pinky swore would be released in its entirety?
Ah, but let’s not talk about Epstein. Let’s talk about everything else but Epstein. Right?
Mr “Smarter than the Generals” says Israeli’s and Palestinians “have been fighting for centuries”! He’s so brilliant when he talks with absolute certainty about absolute nonsense!
No, Palestinians and Israelis have not been fighting for centuries. The Israeli-Palestinian conflict is a modern phenomenon that traces its roots to the late 19th and early 20th centuries, not to antiquity. While the land has a deep and complex history for both Jews and Arabs, their modern political conflict over self-determination and national identity began much more recently.
Key periods and events that shaped the modern conflict include:
Late 19th Century: Political Zionism emerged in Europe, advocating for a Jewish homeland in Palestine. This coincided with early waves of Jewish immigration to the region, which was then under the rule of the Ottoman Empire. These early land purchases and settlement efforts led to rising tensions with the existing Arab population.
Early 20th Century: Following World War I and the collapse of the Ottoman Empire, the British were granted a mandate to administer Palestine. British policy, particularly the 1917 Balfour Declaration, supported the establishment of a “Jewish national home,” which further fueled Jewish immigration and Arab anxieties.
British Mandate (1920–1948): Tensions escalated into intercommunal violence during this period, with significant clashes occurring in 1920, 1921, and 1929. The 1936–1939 Arab Revolt, an armed uprising against British rule and Zionist immigration, was violently suppressed.
1948 Arab-Israeli War: The conflict turned into a full-scale war after the UN voted to partition Palestine and the State of Israel was declared. Israel’s victory and the displacement of hundreds of thousands of Palestinians, which they call the Nakba (catastrophe), cemented the foundations of the conflict that continues today.
Before the late 19th century, the relationship between the Jewish and Arab inhabitants of the region, while complex, was not defined by the same national struggle. Under centuries of Ottoman rule, Jewish communities largely coexisted with their Arab neighbors, though they faced discriminatory laws as non-Muslim subjects. The modern conflict, with its competing national movements of Zionism and Palestinian nationalism, is a product of more recent history.

This is what happens when world leaders are unchecked Criminals who act without legal authority and who view their own citizens as “The Enemy Within!” There’s be no such thing as a “Deep State” or “Enemy Within” if we had law abiding leaders who served their country rather than grifting and raping it who require a “boogeyman” like migrants, educators, doctors, scientists, anti fascist, anti war protesters or even politicians in opposing parties so as to put blinders upon Lady Justice that favor crime and criminals over the rule of law and equal justice. Putin like his pally Don Don fear the truth getting out so they do any and everything they can to silence it by declaring it “Fake News” or by concocting a counter lie that is repeated ad nausea until it is believed by the feeble minded. Just as Nazi master propagandist Joseph Goebels used to preach-
The power of repetition: Goebbels believed that people would only believe lies if they were repeated often enough, and the more outrageous the lie, the greater the chance it would be believed. This was part of his effort to turn the German population against the Jewish people by creating and spreading repeated, baseless claims.

Yep, it’s all deflection JB. They love being fascist haters but hate being called fascist haters for being fascist haters because they all know they’re on the wrong side of history. When your country goes up in flames like the Hindenburg, then and only then some of them might wake their dumb asses up. Although, chances are they’ll cheer it all on instead because that’s what fascist do. They defend a convicted criminal over the rule of law and that’s all anyone need to know about that!
