Infinite thanks to the leakers.
America has to waste time with the incompetent administration, the MSM not fact-checking their news, and the corruption with SCOTUS & Heritage Foundation… so we are not “Leakers”…we are mature adults who work and communicate with other colleagues- the inexperienced cabinet hasn’t done the daily workload TO DO JOB SCHEDULES, to earn their weekly paycheck, so since Jan 20, 2025…it’s like third graders running our INSTITUTIONS. No wonder Asia and Europe are ahead of us, since Trump and Project 202…
May I suggest, read Carlyn Beccia's Medium post - Most of her family are ardent MAGAS - and as she says, it's got nothing to do with the economy.
"The grievances aren’t about GDP, unemployment rates, or the price of eggs. They’re about identity, recognition, and a visceral need to reclaim a sense of power in a world that seems increasingly indifferent, especially to white men."
I recommend reading Jefferson Cowie's Freedom's Dominion too. It is tracing the White backlash to Reconstruction periods where Blacks gain voting rights, like after the Civil war. The Whites call their backlash Redemption, and have an idea of Freedom that places them at the top. I wrote a piece about a lecture Cowie gave this week that talks about this in context of the current election where he talks about populists winning the presidency, but explains it as either left or right.
I think the biggest divide in America is not the left vs. the right but up vs. down, the rich vs the rest of us. Martin Luther King Jr. wrote and spoke about this.
