The Prop 50 Messaging BlitzProposition 50 is one of the most nakedly strategic plays in this cycle. It exists for one purpose: to eliminate California's independent redistricting board so Democrats can gerrymander five seats back — a direct response to Republicans doing the same in red states. That's the whole game. Strip away the messaging, and it's a power move. The ads hitting the airwaves now make it clear how the campaign is going to run: targeted, segmented, and intensely focused on turnout.Gavin Newsom's out front, naturally. The first ad is just him — classic ego-forward strategy. The second ad is aimed squarely at the Bay Area and Los Angeles liberal base, the same model they used to win his recall election. It's all about maximizing favorable turnout in deep blue pockets. They've run this play before, and they know it works — but back then, they had a longer runway. This time, they're racing the clock.Then there's the third ad. That one's for the independents, and its existence tells you everything. The campaign knows that gutting an independent redistricting board is a tough sell outside the bubble. They say it's temporary. I don't buy that. Nobody gives up control once they get it — not in politics. The only way this doesn't work is if moderates see through the language and call it what it is. That last ad shows they're worried that might happen.Politics Politics Politics is a reader-supported publication.

He's one of those figures who's always just sort of been there — a Manhattan political mainstay who most recently made headlines during Trump's first impeachment. That might end up being his most lasting national footprint. He barely held onto his seat after being redistricted into a brutal primary with Carolyn Maloney. He survived that one, but it felt like the end of something.Now he's officially retiring. He says it's time to pass the torch, and he's backing his former aide, Michael Lasher, to take over. That makes sense. It's a controlled handoff. The district will stay blue. The torch will stay in the family. Nadler might not have been the flashiest member of Congress, but he was consequential — particularly in the Judiciary Committee, where he held the gavel through some of the most heated partisan fights of the Trump era.He stepped aside from that leadership role after Jamie Raskin challenged him, and that felt like the start of the wind-down. There wasn't really a lane left for him in this current version of the Democratic Party. He's not the TikTok-friendly progressive, and he's not the compromise-seeking centrist. He's just an old-school liberal from New York. And now, like a lot of others in his generation, he's finally closing the book.Virginia Foxx and the Epstein FilesRepresentative Virginia Foxx, chair of the House Rules Committee, announced she won't use her panel to block Thomas Massie's discharge petition demanding the release of the Epstein files. That's a big move — maybe even a signal. The Republican leadership has been slow-rolling this whole thing, not wanting to get too close to whatever comes out of those documents. But Foxx just let it breathe.Massie's move has bipartisan cover — he's working with Democrat Ro Khanna — and it's gaining momentum. Speaker Mike Johnson says he supports “maximum disclosure,” but that there need to be protections for victims. That's the dodge. That's how they're all trying to walk this line — publicly in favor of transparency, privately praying it doesn't land on their doorstep.The buzz on the Hill is that DOJ will release just enough of the Epstein files to make the issue go away. Maybe that works. Maybe not. But one thing's clear: the discharge petition isn't just symbolic anymore. It's a real threat. And the fact that leadership isn't moving to squash it says a lot about how much weaker those levers of control have gotten. Foxx's choice here wasn't just about process — it was a quiet acknowledgment that the old rules don't apply. Not with this. Not anymore.Chapters00:00:00 - Intro00:03:25 - Interview with Dillon Fleharty00:45:49 - Update00:48:02 - Prop 50 ads00:53:05 - Jerry Nadler00:55:08 - Virginia Foxx00:56:47 - Interview with Dillon Fleharty, con't01:35:24 - Wrap-up This is a public episode.

This segment explores the escalating conflict between the Trump administration and the Democratic Party over the handling of the Venezuelan gang, Tren de Aragua. The discussion centers on a federal appeals court ruling that blocks the administration from using an 18th-century law to deport alleged gang members. The host argues that the Democrats' consistent protection of the gang, from local law enforcement to federal courts, suggests a deliberate strategy to allow the group to establish itself in the U.S. The transcript frames this as a "political civil war," with the Trump administration's use of military and federal resources to target these gangs being actively resisted by Democrats who, according to the speaker, are enabling the criminal enterprises for political gain.

Iowa Senator Joni Ernst (R) plans to announce that she will not run for reelection next year. This move would open up a potentially competitive race in the Hawkeye State. Democrats are eyeing the open Senate seat; however, the party continues to struggle in statewide elections and hasn't won a Senate race in Iowa since 2008. Colin Reed, founding partner at South and Hill Strategies, joins the Rundown to discuss what happens next in Iowa and why Democratic messaging continues to fall flat in the Hawkeye State. Kids today are reporting higher levels of stress and anxiety than ever before, with experts saying constant screen time and social media are major drivers. Jonathan Haidt, social psychologist at New York University and author of "The Anxious Generation: How the Great Rewiring of Childhood is Causing an Epidemic of Mental Illness," joins the Rundown to break down how the digital age may be reshaping childhood and what steps we can take right now to address this crisis.

Alex Traiman, CEO of Jewish News Syndicate, calls in live from Israel to discuss Israel's ongoing war with Hamas and the challenges facing Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu. Traiman discusses how Hamas's hostage-taking strategy has given the group leverage, eroded global support for Israel, and fueled propaganda that even sways Jewish communities. He argues that criticism of Netanyahu is often a proxy for anti-Israel or anti-Semitic sentiment, while Rosenberg defended Netanyahu's difficult position. Traiman highlights how U.S. Democrats, including Chuck Schumer and Hillary Clinton, have pressured Netanyahu to step down, contrasting that with Donald Trump's steadfast support. He rejects claims that Israel is committing genocide, pointing to efforts to limit civilian casualties despite the war's toll, and stressed that if Israel intended genocide, the death toll would be far higher. They also examined Israeli politics, noting opposition figures like Yair Lapid but suggesting Netanyahu still has strong chances in the next election despite coalition challenges. Finally, Traiman discusses U.S. Senator Marco Rubio's move to block visas for Palestinian Authority officials, framing the PA as a terrorist-supporting entity unworthy of statehood recognition.

The rollback of the Inflation Reduction Act through the One Big Beautiful Bill Act has reshaped America's climate and energy landscape by cutting tax incentives for wind and solar power and electric vehicles while maintaining some federal support for sources like nuclear reactors and geothermal plants.  While there is some uncertainty about how those policy changes will play out, there are even broader questions about what this all means for the Republican Party's energy policy agenda and approach to climate change.  So where is the party headed and what could bipartisan cooperation on energy policy look like in today's Washington? Can Republicans and Democrats still find common ground on issues like climate adaptation, energy security, and permitting reform? And what is shaping the Republican Party's approach to energy policy?  This week, Jason talks to Carlos Curbelo about the current state of Republican thinking on energy and climate policy. Carlos is a former member of the U.S. House of Representatives. He served Florida's 26th congressional district from 2015 to 2019. During his time in Congress, Carlos was a leading Republican voice on climate policy, co-founding and co-chairing the bipartisan Climate Solutions Caucus. After leaving Congress, Carlos served as a distinguished visiting fellow at the Center for Global Energy Policy. He also co-founded Vocero, a communications and strategic consulting firm based in South Florida. Credits: Hosted by Jason Bordoff and Bill Loveless.

A fierce political battle is underway as President Trump threatens to deploy federal agents and troops to Chicago to combat violent crime. Mayor Brandon Johnson and Governor J.B. Pritzker are vowing to resist, with Johnson signing an executive order to limit cooperation with federal law enforcement. The host argues that the president is brilliantly exposing the political motivations of Democrats who prioritize votes over public safety, drawing a parallel to a successful crackdown in Washington, D.C. The discussion delves into a shocking report from the Treasury Department about Chinese money laundering networks aiding drug cartels, suggesting a larger, global criminal enterprise with ties to political agendas.

The host discusses the surprising TCU football victory over UNC, highlighting how TCU's quarterback wore a "Jesus Wins" t-shirt and then led his team to a stunning blowout. The conversation pivots to larger cultural and political trends, including the host's personal observations about pride flags on the UNC campus and a broader discussion on the "demographic armageddon" facing the left. The host cites data from political analysts about voter migration from blue to red states, and birth rate differences between liberals and conservatives, arguing that these trends are forcing Democrats to rely on illegal immigration and a "dual justice system" to maintain their political power.

The host breaks down the escalating conflict between President Trump and prominent Democratic leaders like Chicago Mayor Brandon Johnson, who is actively resisting federal law enforcement intervention. The host details a recent federal crackdown in Washington, D.C., resulting in 1,600 arrests of violent criminals and gang members, many of whom were illegal immigrants. He argues that this strategy is designed to expose and dismantle the criminal networks thriving in sanctuary cities. The host also claims that Democrats are fighting to protect these individuals because they are seen as crucial for maintaining political power, citing a major demographic shift of people leaving blue states and a close, disturbing connection between the Democratic party, activists, and criminals.

The host reveals a shocking connection between international crime and American politics, arguing that the standoff in cities like Chicago is part of a larger, global conflict. Citing a U.S. Treasury report, he details how Chinese networks are laundering billions in cartel wealth through the U.S. financial system, with money flowing through real estate, casinos, and human trafficking. The host claims this alliance between China and cartels is a deliberate strategy to gain influence and control in the U.S. He links this directly to the Democratic party, alleging a "nexus" where the cartels and China provide the "voters" needed to combat the demographic shifts of Americans fleeing blue states.

This wide-ranging segment begins with lighthearted gossip about Bill Belichick's girlfriend, Jordan Hudson, and her new "gold digger" trademark. The discussion then pivots to serious political and cultural analysis, exploring claims of documented financial fraud by a Federal Reserve governor and its implications for Democrats. The host presents stark statistics on Gen Z's views on marriage and happiness, arguing that despite popular belief, data shows married women with children are far happier. The conversation then turns to the controversial manifesto of the Minneapolis shooter, where the host claims the individual "regretted being trans," tying this to a broader argument about the effects of cross-sex hormones and media censorship. The show concludes with a prediction about a U.S. invasion of Venezuela to dismantle criminal networks.

Today's broadcast covers a broad spectrum of topics, from pop culture and sports to national politics and global conflicts. The host begins by dissecting the UNC-TCU football game, weaving in humorous anecdotes about Bill Belichick's girlfriend and the trending "Jesus Wins" slogan. The conversation transitions to the new "no tax on tips" policy, celebrated as a win for American workers, and contrasts it with the Biden administration's policies. The core of the show focuses on a series of escalating political and social conflicts. The host details a standoff between President Trump and Democratic leaders in Chicago over crime, which he frames as a brilliant strategy to expose Democrats who he claims defend criminals. He presents a list of federal arrests in Washington, D.C., to show the effectiveness of Trump's crackdown. The discussion then widens to an alleged "nexus" between the Democratic Party, Chinese money laundering networks, and international cartels, which the host claims are all working together to undermine the U.S. and secure political power. On a personal and cultural level, the host shares his concerns about the future of Gen Z, citing studies on a growing "happiness gap" and a stark partisan divide between young men and women. He also delves into a controversial analysis of the Minneapolis mass shooter's manifesto, arguing that the media is ignoring key details about the role of cross-sex hormones and gender identity. Finally, the host expresses serious concern for Donald Trump's health, urging his staff to ensure he takes time off from his grueling schedule, while also making a bold prediction about a potential U.S. military action against Venezuela.

The host discusses the political conflict between President Trump and Democratic leaders like Chicago Mayor Brandon Johnson, framing it as a front in a larger "war" for the republic. Citing a U.S. Treasury report, the host alleges that a vast network of Chinese money launderers and Mexican cartels are working with the Democratic party to move billions of dollars through the U.S. The host claims this alliance is a deliberate strategy to gain power, with the criminal networks providing the "voters" needed to offset a demographic shift of people leaving blue states. The speaker also expresses deep concern for President Trump's health, arguing that he is working himself to death to fight this "nexus" and reclaim American territory from these forces.

Chicago Mayor Brandon Johnson invokes slavery to oppose Trump’s plan to send troops and make his city safer — even after one of the bloodiest Labor Day weekends on record. Democrats are openly siding with chaos while Trump doubles down on law and order, pushing voter ID and cracking down on fraud. Their lunacy is a gift to Republicans heading into the midterms.See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

Top Stories for September 2nd Publish Date: September 2nd PRE-ROLL: GWINETT FAIR From The BG AD Group Studio, Welcome to the Gwinnett Daily Post Podcast. Today is Tuesday, September 2nd and Happy Birthday to Barry Gibbs I’m Peyton Spurlock and here are your top stories presented by KIA Mall of Georgia Troop 506 marks 50 years of Scouting with Court of Honor and Anniversary Celebration Shiloh High student threatened classmate with a gun The Flint River flows to Fernbank Museum this fall All of this and more is coming up on the Gwinnett Daily Post podcast, and if you are looking for community news, we encourage you to listen and subscribe! Break 1: Kia MOG STORY 1: Troop 506 marks 50 years of Scouting with Court of Honor and Anniversary Celebration Troop 506 celebrated 50 years of Scouting at Cannon United Methodist Church, where it all began. The Court of Honor was packed—current Scouts, proud families, and alumni spanning decades. Rank advancements, merit badges, and heartfelt stories filled the room. The Troop’s legacy is impressive: 112 Eagle Scouts since 1975. This year, they tackled a “50 Years of Service” challenge—making sandwiches, retiring flags, and collecting food for the community. STORY 2: Shiloh High student threatened classmate with a gun A Shiloh High student was arrested Friday after bringing a gun to school and allegedly threatening a classmate. No one was hurt, but the situation rattled nerves. Principal Cappy Douglass, in a letter to parents, called the incident “unacceptable” and emphasized that weapons on campus are both a policy violation and a crime. This marks the second gun-related incident in Gwinnett schools this year—earlier, a Meadowcreek Elementary student shot a toilet with his mom’s unsecured handgun. Parents are urged: lock up firearms, talk to your kids, and report threats. STORY 3: The Flint River flows to Fernbank Museum this fall A new exhibit, “Lost in Sight: In Search of the Flint’s Headwaters,” opens Saturday at Fernbank Museum, and it’s not your typical nature photography. Virginie Drujon-Kippelen’s work digs—literally and figuratively—into the hidden start of the Flint River, buried beneath the chaos of Hartsfield-Jackson Airport. The photos? Stunning. Twenty vibrant images trace the Flint’s journey from urban trickles to its first public access point, 15 miles downstream. Along the way, it’s polluted, paved over, and nearly forgotten—yet somehow still wild in places. We have opportunities for sponsors to get great engagement on these shows. Call 770.874.3200 for more info. We’ll be right back Break 2: MONSTER JAM STORY 4: Kemp to promote Dooley for U.S. Senate before football game Gov. Brian Kemp is throwing his weight behind Derek Dooley’s Senate run, he joined the Republican candidate Saturday at a tailgate before Georgia’s game against Marshall at Sanford Stadium. Football and politics—classic Georgia combo, right? Dooley, son of legendary Bulldogs coach Vince Dooley, officially entered the GOP primary in August. Unlike rivals Buddy Carter and Mike Collins, both Trump-aligned congressmen, Dooley’s a political rookie—no voting record, just a coaching one. Democrats aren’t holding back, calling him a “failed and fired” Tennessee coach. But Kemp’s betting on Bulldog nostalgia and football fandom to give Dooley a boost. STORY 5: Annandale Village opens new Adam C. Pomeranz Program Center Annandale Village just unveiled the Adam C. Pomeranz Program Center, a stunning new space built to empower adults with developmental disabilities and brain injuries. The Aug. 22 celebration was pure joy: 300 guests, food trucks, a live DJ, and performances by the Annandale choir and cheer team. Funded by $6.8 million in donations, the center boasts a teaching kitchen, sensory rooms, an indoor pool, and more—designed to inspire and include everyone. We’ll be right back. Break: MONSTER JAM STORY 6: Gwinnett police arrest four after year-long investigation into suspected crime ring After a year-long investigation, Gwinnett County police have arrested four people tied to a string of car break-ins, thefts, and other crimes that left hundreds of residents reeling. It started back in June 2024, when detectives noticed a pattern: stolen cars being used to break into vehicles across the county. Over 14 months, the group allegedly swiped credit cards, cash, and even firearms, leaving a trail of frustration and fear. On Aug. 5, police—backed by Atlanta SWAT—raided an East Point apartment, recovering stolen guns and arresting four suspects, including 17-year-old Lydericus Broomhead and Kordale Miliam, who’s also facing felony murder charges. STORY 7: New Gwinnett police headquarters on hold because of tariffs Gwinnett County’s plans for a new police headquarters? Stuck in limbo. Why? Tariffs. Yep, those tariffs. County Commission Chairwoman Nicole Love Hendrickson says the uncertainty around costs—thanks to the ongoing trade war—has forced the project to hit pause. The $5.8 million project, meant to replace the outdated 1977 facility, was supposed to break ground last December. Now? No clear timeline. It’s not just the police HQ, either. Other capital projects are feeling the squeeze, leaving Gwinnett to tread carefully in an unpredictable financial climate. We’ll have closing comments after this.

Fox News Host turned top prosecutor in DC, Jeanine Pirro, engaged in gross prosecutorial overreach by urging multiple grand juries to charge protestors with felonies when the facts plainly warranted only misdemeanor charges.Fortunately, the grand jurors, sitting as the conscious of the community, refused to indict the protestors of felony crimes. So Pirro directs her prosecutors to charge the protesters with less series misdemeanor offenses.Given how Donald Trump treated the "protestors" who attacked the US Capitol on January 6th, 2021, versus how Trump's DOJ is currently treating these two protestors, Glenn says they'll have one heck of a selective prosecution defense at their misdemeanor trials.For nightly live Law Talks, please join Glenn on Substack: glennkirschner.substack.comIf you're interested in supporting our all-volunteer efforts, you can become a Team Justice patron at: / glennkirschner If you'd like to support Glenn and buy Team Justice and Justice Matters merchandise visit:https://shop.spreadshirt.com/glennkir...Check out Glenn's website at https://glennkirschner.com/Follow Glenn on:Threads: https://www.threads.net/glennkirschner2Facebook: https://www.facebook.com/glennkirschner2Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/glennkirsch...Bluesky: https://bsky.app/profile/glennkirschn...TikTok: https://www.tiktok.com/glennkirschner2See Privacy Policy at https://art19.com/privacy and California Privacy Notice at https://art19.com/privacy#do-not-sell-my-info.

In an ugly move, Fox News contacted Republican Senators and asked: Should President Trump deploy the National Guard in your states' blue cities? Fox News got back the answer it was trying to generate: GOP Senators actively want Trump to use the military in their states' urban areas, ostensibly to fight “crime.” This is an unnerving turn in the saga that makes Trump's threat look worse. Congressional Republicans expressly want Trump to employ troops to intimidate their own constituents, provided it's confined to largely Democratic areas—and they're saying this openly, egged on by Fox, making additional occupations more likely. Meanwhile, Democrats are consumed in a big debate over whether they can talk about this topic at all. We talked to media critic Jamison Foser, who has a good piece about all this on his newsletter, Finding Gravity. We discuss why the media is wrongly describing this as a political winner for Trump, what the polls actually say, and how the media storyline is encouraging Democrats' worst duck-and-cover instincts.

Driveway Beers PodcastDemocrats And Third Way!!A Democrat think tank named Third Way (thirdway.org) put up a blog post about how Democrats are doing everything they can to drive voters away from the party. Is it time for the controlling arms of the Democrat Party to drop some very loud fringe topics that no one seems to agree with in order to remain relevant or stick to their guns because they're just so far ahead of their time and people will come around???

Iowa Senator Joni Ernst (R) plans to announce that she will not run for reelection next year. This move would open up a potentially competitive race in the Hawkeye State. Democrats are eyeing the open Senate seat; however, the party continues to struggle in statewide elections and hasn't won a Senate race in Iowa since 2008.

Alex Traiman, CEO of Jewish News Syndicate, calls in live from Israel to discuss Israel's ongoing war with Hamas and the challenges facing Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu. Traiman discusses how Hamas's hostage-taking strategy has given the group leverage, eroded global support for Israel, and fueled propaganda that even sways Jewish communities. He argues that criticism of Netanyahu is often a proxy for anti-Israel or anti-Semitic sentiment, while Rosenberg defended Netanyahu's difficult position. Traiman highlights how U.S. Democrats, including Chuck Schumer and Hillary Clinton, have pressured Netanyahu to step down, contrasting that with Donald Trump's steadfast support. He rejects claims that Israel is committing genocide, pointing to efforts to limit civilian casualties despite the war's toll, and stressed that if Israel intended genocide, the death toll would be far higher. They also examined Israeli politics, noting opposition figures like Yair Lapid but suggesting Netanyahu still has strong chances in the next election despite coalition challenges. Finally, Traiman discusses U.S. Senator Marco Rubio's move to block visas for Palestinian Authority officials, framing the PA as a terrorist-supporting entity unworthy of statehood recognition.

Texas Republicans may come to regret their newly passed congressional map, which relied on the assumption that Latino voters were shifting toward the GOP. But that support is now rapidly eroding, and as Dina Doll reports, the redistricting may have instead created more competitive districts for Democrats. iRestore: Reverse hair loss with @iRestorelaser and unlock HUGE savings on the iRestore Elite with the code: MISSTRIAL at https://iRestore.com/MISSTRIAL Remember to subscribe to ALL the MeidasTouch Network Podcasts: MeidasTouch: https://www.meidastouch.com/tag/meidastouch-podcast Legal AF: https://www.meidastouch.com/tag/legal-af MissTrial: https://meidasnews.com/tag/miss-trial The PoliticsGirl Podcast: https://www.meidastouch.com/tag/the-politicsgirl-podcast The Influence Continuum: https://www.meidastouch.com/tag/the-influence-continuum-with-dr-steven-hassan Mea Culpa with Michael Cohen: https://www.meidastouch.com/tag/mea-culpa-with-michael-cohen The Weekend Show: https://www.meidastouch.com/tag/the-weekend-show Burn the Boats: https://www.meidastouch.com/tag/burn-the-boats Majority 54: https://www.meidastouch.com/tag/majority-54 Political Beatdown: https://www.meidastouch.com/tag/political-beatdown On Democracy with FP Wellman: https://www.meidastouch.com/tag/on-democracy-with-fpwellman Uncovered: https://www.meidastouch.com/tag/maga-uncovered Coalition of the Sane: https://meidasnews.com/tag/coalition-of-the-sane

The Democrats have gerry mandered blue states for quite a while, and it's time for Republicans to do the same in red states.  Governor Grey Abbott is set to redraw the congressional bounderies in Texas but, the Democratic legislators have fled the state to try to stop the vote.  It'll be interesting to see how it all will play out but, won't work out well for the Democrats.

Yaron tears apart the myths and exposes the real victims of tariff lies. From Xi's authoritarian grip to Modi's nationalist illusions and Putin's thuggery, the show dives into the strongmen shaping global politics.Yaron will also tackle the decline of tourism, the mess of Chinese visas, the swamp of DC politics, and the economic insanity of minimum wage hikes.

On January 6, 2021, Ashley Babbitt was a rioter and insurrectionist who was shot as she attempted to climb through a busted window of a barricaded door leading to the Speaker's Lobby as members of Congress were being evacuated from the US Capitol. While she was in the process of committing crimes by trying to breach the Capitol, she was shot and killed. Even though she was an Air Force veteran, Babbitt was rightfully denied military honors at her funeral . . . until now. The Air Force just reversed course (undoubtedly at the direction of Donald Trump), and will now give Babbitt full military honors. This horrific decision DISHONORS all of the men and women of the United States military, each of whom took an oath to protect the Constitution against all enemies, foreign and domestic.For nightly live Law Talks, please join Glenn on Substack: glennkirschner.substack.comIf you're interested in supporting our all-volunteer efforts, you can become a Team Justice patron at: / glennkirschner If you'd like to support Glenn and buy Team Justice and Justice Matters merchandise visit:https://shop.spreadshirt.com/glennkir...Check out Glenn's website at https://glennkirschner.com/Follow Glenn on:Threads: https://www.threads.net/glennkirschner2Facebook: https://www.facebook.com/glennkirschner2Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/glennkirsch...Bluesky: https://bsky.app/profile/glennkirschn...TikTok: https://www.tiktok.com/glennkirschner2See Privacy Policy at https://art19.com/privacy and California Privacy Notice at https://art19.com/privacy#do-not-sell-my-info.

Part One | Part TwoI didn't just leave the Democratic Party. I ran screaming from them. On Friday night, I was reminded once again why.The news hit X that Trump had died. It wasn't true, of course, but for some reason, those who think that the only way to gain back power from Trump is “mess with him” or “troll him” seemed to think this was funny.But as usual, the Left can't meme. It wasn't funny. It was chilling because of how obsessed with Trump they've been and how their hatred has boiled over into madness.It became a frenzy, a wild-eyed bacchanalia on TikTok. They were smiling and cackling at the mere thought of “it finally happening.”After all, the TikTok trend of “when it happens” has been flourishing on the app, along with “somebody just do it,” for quite some time. They're strung-out junkies by now, hunting for that dopamine hit that comes from blurting out what shouldn't be said.Looking at their eyes, their crazy, crazy eyes, always makes me think of the Manson followers who had that same look, especially as they skipped through the courthouse while on trial for having slaughtered innocent people who were enjoying a hot August night in 1969 before the creepy crawlers came.The conclusion at the time was that they'd been brainwashed by Charlie. But how he brainwashed them wasn't that different from how the Left has brainwashed their followers. He surfed the wave of the anti-establishment counterculture, finding easy targets to dehumanize and blame. Are you angry? He seemed to say, take it out on them. They deserve it.The evil was at the top - cops were “pigs,” the rich “deserved” to die, which is why when Susan Atkins, aka Sadie, plunged the knife into the pregnant stomach of Sharon Tate, she only felt relief and a kind of euphoria:The Left of today reminds me so much of my childhood growing up as a hippie kid in Topanga during that time. I was too young to really remember the Manson murders, but I could sense the vibe shift in the wake of them. It was their inability to hold power, how the silent majority rejected them, that transformed the “make love not war” hippies into violent radicals.I also knew that we all believed religion was too oppressive, which is partly what birthed the counterculture movement in the first place. Sex, drugs, and rock n' roll only took us so far, I remember that, too. I was a child of the narcissistic “me” generation, where kids were sidelined as adults chased their bliss and “found themselves.”The rise of feminism also meant women adopted a false sense of security, and serial killers and rapists began sprouting up like mushrooms all through the 1970s. I remember the gas lines and the malaise. I remember the pendulum shift, and how welcome it was when our culture finally became too exhausted of the hippies, especially after the violence, and opted for a different kind of life.Money and success were the fix in the 1980s - mortgages, marriages, kids, jobs. But even that failed to do the trick. We were still broken and empty inside. By the 1990s, just as the self-help revolution and therapy culture arose in the wake of the FCC allowing Pharma to market to consumers, we turned to the brave new world of psychologists and psychiatrists who would “fix” us, heal us from our trauma and abuse.After a while, though, how we were abused, what made us victims, would eventually become our identity. For years, every time I met a man or anyone, I would tell my story of abuse to put it all into context: see me as a victim, feel sorry for me.In 2008, the Wall Street bailout of $700 billion was the crisis that sparked the Fourth Turning, according to Neil Howe, who co-authored the book with the late William H. Strauss. But it was an important year for another reason. It was the rise of Barack Obama, the iPhone, Twitter, and Facebook.While the bailout would awaken the public and eventually birth two populist movements — Occupy Wall Street and the Tea Party — the rise of Obama would be the religion we didn't even know we needed. It was a collective sense of purpose where everyone had a seat at the table, but mostly focused on marginalized groups, everyone but the majority.We colonized the internet as Obama built his coalition on Twitter, as civilization began to migrate into virtual spaces. Because we were all connected, we could decide the rules of behavior, of language, of status. We remade a new America online to address our collective trauma and abuse and build a better America, a shining Woketopia on the Hill.As wealth and power shifted Leftward under Obama's rule, much of America's rust belt was abandoned. We didn't realize this as we tinkered with our perfect little world, our insulated bubble. We were so cut off that we almost speciated, with an entirely different language from the rest of America.The ruling elites could find absolution by borrowing oppression. They could elevate the marginalized and use them as a protective layer as the populists began rising up against the government.The Democrats, as the party of the wealthy, didn't have to address their needs or even acknowledge them. Turning the public against them by convicting them as “racists” in the media and in the court of public opinion served the Democrats well. Now, they had an existential crisis because Trump was leading the populists, and they were about to shock the world by winning.Mass PsychosisTrump's win would kick off Trump Derangement Syndrome, otherwise known as mass psychosis. Maybe it wouldn't have afflicted so many and gone on for so long if the people at the top - the Democrats and the ruling class - cared enough to calm things down. But they didn't. Having a public crippled by mass psychosis served their needs.Trump Derangement Syndrome: The Movie begins there. It was never about Trump. He was what Alfred Hitchcock would call “The MacGuffin.” It's the thing people in the movie care about, but the audience knows doesn't matter.As they chased their Macguffin for ten years, they had no idea that the real story unfolding was what happened to all of them. What happened during COVID, during lockdowns? What happened to a group of people who were fed the Russiagate lie, and even now, it has never been corrected or debunked.What happened to people who were told by the New Yorker, the New York Times, and the Washington Post that fascism was coming to America? What happened to the young people who absorbed and internalized the unending and relentless focus on the evils of Trump as the media cherry-picked the worst things he said and dumped them into the churn?And all for what? To turn out voters when the candidates don't drive enthusiasm? They never once thought using fear for that long would ultimately cause a mental health crisis in this country, especially among the young?By 2020, I could no longer endure the daily ritual, the two minutes of hate for one more minute.It felt like poison. I had to know whether it was true or not. Was Trump really all of these things we believed him to be, or was he the guy we all remembered from the 1980s, the guy in Home Alone? Or, in the worst-case scenario, was he the Goldstein-like figure from Orwell's 1984, used only to keep their voters in compliance and full of hate?So I did the hard thing and I decided to find out for myself. I watched Trump's rallies heading into the election, all five a day. I saw his supporters for the first time. They were nothing like as described. They were intersectional, for one thing, all different races, gay people, and even trans people.The one thing they had in common was that they did not belong to the ruling class and were not part of the Doomsday Cult. They were sick of Trump Derangement Syndrome: The Movie. They were exhausted by it. They wanted to move on. So did I.For me, finally seeing that none of it was real, that Trump wasn't who I was led to believe he was, that he was the Macguffin, and his supporters were not mouth-frothing brown shirts fueled by racism. And that meant, for me, there was no going back. It took all the courage I could muster — my Soylent Green is People moment, my To Serve Man is a Cookbook plea to say to them, “It's not about race. It's about class!”But class had been eliminated out of necessity. If America is a systemically racist country, then Barack and Michelle Obama are still oppressed, which gives them status. But some white guy strung out on fentanyl dying on the streets in Wisconsin is still an oppressor and has no status.Are they surprised the revolution happened to them?The Trump They Invented Never ExistedThe story the Left has been telling itself is how Shakespeare once described life in the play Macbeth: A tale told by an idiot, full of sound and fury, signifying nothing.Focusing solely on Trump for ten long years has meant they have never made any progress in solving the problems that put Trump in power in the first place.They've only hurt themselves because there is no version of this movie that comes to anything good. Should they take back power, what is their plan for the rest of the country that voted for Trump? Gulags? Mass deportation? Firing squads?Trump Derangement Syndrome has all but collapsed the empire, with Hollywood barely clinging to life, network television hemorrhaging viewers, and a rising counterculture movement they can't keep up with. Their jokes aren't funny. Their movies are unwatchable. Their moral superiority is unbearable.Voters are fleeing like rats off a sinking ship.The Democrats themselves have been recorded now as having no faith in the direction of the country, down to zero for the first time in history.Unfortunately, there is no snapping out of it any time soon. They are trapped in a hell of their own making and have arrived at the abyss. Their Great White Hopes, such as Gavin Newsom and JB Pritzker, seem to think that “fighting back” must also mean reflecting the mass psychosis that has distorted their perception of reality.But a great leader would be the one to help them out of it, offering rationality and critical thinking. A good leader would welcome Trump's help with crime to save mothers from having to worry about their children, but this is not a party that cares about them. This is a party that only cares about the ruling elite, still stuck in the Doomsday cult.It should not be about Donald Trump 10 years laterWhat has destroyed the Democrats and the Left was never Trump. They could have easily beaten him. They just had to be a little less crazy. But they couldn't even do that. The voters had in Trump someone who could see the working class at all, let alone help address their problems. But really, most of us voted for Trump as a way outThe Democrats have become so disconnected from reality that they believe it's acceptable to sterilize children and amputate their body parts, among other horrors.There is no such thing as a sane Democrat. Even those who seem semi-sane, like Rahm Emanuel, will buckle under the question of “gender affirming care.”That made voting for Trump in 2024 one of the easiest things I've ever done. I will spend the rest of my life reminding every single Democrat that they not only went along with it, but they also fought to preserve it. They own this and every terrible thing that will happen in the next ten years as children wake up and become adults and realize what has been done to them.That's just one of the reasons I think Trump is the Gray Champion of this Fourth Turning, the one we're living through now. 8 years ago, Neil Howe was asked this question. He wasn't prepared to answer it because Trump's presidency had not yet been tested.All of these years later, it's hard to see Trump as anything else:And maybe that's why a death fantasy was their last best hope. Maybe deep down, they know this is the end. Trump Derangement Syndrome: The Movie is nothing less than the rise and fall of a once-mighty empire and a disastrous campaign that has all but destroyed the minds of a generation.What the Democrats don't realize or won't accept is that the pendulum wants to swing. So let it. But until they find their way out of mass psychosis, we should do everything we can to keep them as far away from our schools and our government as possible.It brings me no pleasure to watch the empire fall, but I always knew it would. We built an empire of lies. I also knew that sooner or later, the truth would bring the whole thing crashing down.You can't stop what's coming. It ain't all waiting on you. That's vanity.

President Donald Trump's approval rating rebounded in August, according to Gallup, reaching 40% — a three-point increase from July. It's the first uptick since February. His economic approval held steady at 37%, while his foreign affairs rating slipped to 39%. Gallup also found a historic partisan gap: 93% of Republicans approve of Trump's performance, compared with just 1% of Democrats. Satisfaction with the direction of the country surged among Republicans but dropped to nearly zero among Democrats.

News and Updates: Microsoft's Windows chief Pavan Davuluri says the next version of Windows—possibly Windows 12—will be an “ambient, multi-modal” OS powered by AI. Voice will become a primary input alongside keyboard and mouse, with context-aware features that understand what's on your screen. Microsoft calls it an “agentic AI” future, blending local and cloud compute, though privacy concerns loom. Excel is testing a new =COPILOT() AI function that lets users type natural language prompts instead of formulas. Microsoft warns not to use it for any task requiring accuracy—like math, finance, or compliance—since results may be wrong. Critics say this undermines Excel's core purpose and could erode real spreadsheet skills. President Trump announced that Intel has agreed to give the US government a 10% stake—worth about $10B—through a mix of CHIPS Act funds and direct investment. The deal aims to secure domestic chipmaking but gives the US no board influence. Democrats are questioning legality, while Trump floated possible 300% tariffs on foreign semiconductors to further boost Intel against TSMC and Samsung.

Much has been written about political polarisation in the United States, but no one has examined it through the lens of recent U.S. history. There is nothing deterministic about how we became polarised, and it happened more recently than many think. To fully understand the problem, we must take the long view, the perspective provided by history, with its attention to change over time and the role of contingency. That's what The Path to Paralysis does. The book illuminates the broad forces that have shaped and reshaped American society and politics since the mid-1960s: the shift from an industrial to an information economy that produced economic inequality not seen since the 1920s; dramatic, unsettling changes in gender and sexuality; sharp conflict between those who embrace the culture of personal freedom that was a legacy of the 1960s and politically mobilised White evangelicals; persistent racial discord that transformed Southern politics and shattered the New Deal coalition; and dramatic changes in communication that transformed broadcasting into narrowcasting, creating alternate news and truths. These developments had their origin in the late 1960s and have generated sharp political conflict for six decades. But they didn't overwhelm the system until the 21st century. Ronald Reagan moved American politics to the right, but Republicans and Democrats forged compromise on issues as diverse as economic policy, civil rights, and immigration. After the culture wars of the 1980s and 1990s, Bill Clinton and George W. Bush tacked to the centre and sought bipartisan solutions to issues like welfare, education and immigration. Sharp conflict and governance were compatible. The tipping point was the election of the nation's first Black president and the economic collapse he inherited. Fault lines of religion, region, gender, sexual orientation, class, education and, especially, race widened. People chose sides and identified enemies, the number of true swing voters shrunk, fewer states and congressional districts were competitive, the two major parties became more monolithic, and appeals to the base drove strategy and what passed for policy. It was an atmosphere that provided fertile ground for a demagogue whose norm-busting appeals to White grievance and Christian Nationalism, as well as to regional and class resentment strengthened his appeal to an angry base and threatened the peaceful transition of power, the bedrock of American democracy for more than two centuries.
