I believe in government of the people, by the people, and for the people. Mike Rogers believes in government of the billionaires, by the corporations, and for the special interests.

If Trump comes supports this position, all the displaced Native American tribes should take their own generic land back. We likely would prefer to live in a type of society that values the land, nature, and cooperation. Putin, citing genetics, claims Ukrainian land ‘is not their territory’ go

There’s a president who needs increasing adulation, who insists on being called sir, and who proposes to give each American $5000. Nope. Not Trump. It’s his fictional equivalent: the Trump-like President Buzz Winthrop in the 1936 book It Can’t Happen Here. Project 2025 by Russ Vought plagiarized it.

Go back and read It Can’t Happen Here by Sinclair Lewis in 1936. It’s all there: project 2025. It’s happening. Right here. Right now.

My name is not the reason we're paying $5/gallon for gas. My name is not the reason you can't afford your groceries. My name is not the reason you can't afford your mortgage or rent. My name is not the reason you can't see a doctor. Their policies are the reason.

You know who we really must blame? Mark Burnett. Until The Apprentice those who knew tRump knew him as a cheating, lowlife, slumlord poser. No one who knew him watched the show because it was pathetic, ridiculous. People who didn’t know him watched. And believed. They became MAGA. So here we are.

Have any of you recently watched the mainstream evening “news” recently? It’s like a better-dressed version of Entertainment Tonight. With the shitshow going on every day in every aspect of actual American life, wouldn’t you think there might be something relevant? Anything? Ask Walter Cronkite.

Republicans in Congress: Do you really believe you’ll be spared. Have you not seen how he disdains weaklings like you? He may “hate” those who stand up to him, but really he’s afraid of them. He knows he’s nothing to them. The Irish have a saying: Better to be hanged as a sheep than a lamb.

They’re just not like us. They’re really not.

If a frat boy passed out drunk at a sorority, he would wake up the next day with a blanket on him, two aspirins and a glass of water next to him, his shoes off, and perfectly safe. It would NEVER occur to the women that his incapacity was license to do whatever they wanted to him. Never.

DoorDash spent $1.4M trying to stop Zohran Mamdani from becoming mayor. This week's historic $131.5M enforcement action against DoorDash for underpaying NYC delivery workers shows why. Yet another reminder that the only thing that can beat organized money is organized people.

And against all the rest of us, too: ICE terrorists, Black people being lynched, flock cameras, voter shenanigans, crooked politicians, cuts to important social programs, illegal wars killing Americans for no reason. Yeah, we’re exceptional, all right.

Pay attention. You don’t do all this shit if you plan to leave in 2 years.

What does a sniper position at Memorial Circle actually defend against? Not China. Not a submarine. Not a missile. It overlooks a bridge, a traffic circle, and the front door of the National Mall. Those are places where Americans march. www.jackhopkinsnow.com

We don’t have to put up with this. Not these policies or these politicians or even this system of politics. It's time for us to chase out corruption and build a politics that actually responds to the people.

This is what people want from their representatives. Instead we have missing Mitch and Mike Johnson’s endless recess. Vote.
