SAVE OUR COUNTRY!!! I personally never thought that it would ever get this bad, so here we are. If anybody out there thinks for a moment that their will be no need of sacrifice is sadly mistaken. I don't mean the sacrifices that our combat soldiers and their families have had to deal with. The Supreme Court will be the last domino to fall, if that happens all hands on deck because your freedom is at stake. What all hands on deck means to me:
5. Boycotting companies that the majority of their donations are going to the fascist party.
https://www.goodsuniteus.com/ also companies that CEO's & Exec. Officers who attended Inauguration: Tesla, X/Twitter, Facebook, Instagram, Amazon/Amazon Prime, Whole Foods ,Zappos, Apple Computer/Apple TV, TikTok, Google, Fitbit and Nest
If this means bringing down our Economy, Stock Market or causing a Civil War so be it. To keep my freedom I'll do anything, I hope most people feel the same way. If not HELLO, RUSSIA!!!
Republicans have stopped town hall meetings. Gee, I wonder why. The best thing to do is call and leave messages. Emails are easily dismissed. I have joined Country First. Having parents who lived as children in Hitler's Germany, having relatives who had to live in communist country and born and raised as a Canadian with an American citizenship, heck, yes I am fighting. And I am fighting to honor my veteran husband who gave his live for this country.
Some of us have that special reason for why we need to get rid of this tyrant and his cult. Arlington National Cemetery, Vietnam Memorial, World War II Memorial, Etc,Etc. and 250 years of fighting to keep tyrants like this from running our country. "We The People" will prevail!!! Vietnam Veteran.
They also need to stop looking and speaking so weakly. Trump cannot be trusted AT ALL, so there is no point entertaining retaining the US alliance. He's out. And if he's in, it's only to be a double agent. It's clear he views the Russia-US alliance as the way of taking over the world - Russian aggression with US resources. I wish Europe would stop acting so scared of an alliance without the US, because it's not helpful.
Yeah. And trump has the ability to launch our nuclear missiles! Very frightening indeed. To think that there is no (known) psychological testing requirement for anyone holding that ability is beyond my comprehension!
Zelenskyy kept his calm and cool while being attacked on television. He is smart enough to see a con coming. He sustained normal level tones, in his 2nd language while fending off "smarty pants Vance" (well, he thinks so) and 47 (not so "smarty pants") AND not selling out his country.
Think about what leadership means and the qualities that define it; now think of the 3 named above. Which one better fits that description?
This person in particular has never led with dignity nor courage. I just can’t bring myself to refer to drumpf as a “president”. He is not my president.
You should create 1 min TikTok videos (seriously). While it's not banned (and I doubt this will ever happen, since Trump just wants his kickback) - might as well use it!
I share everything and restack everything you do here on substack. I think it's important that you do make vital information sharable to everyone ( the videos especially) I share it wherever and anywhere i can. A lot if people are still asleep and in denial
I love the videos and I live the new backdrop.of the statue of liberty i find it's easier to focus on you and your message. I also love that you post as well. I feel it is to our advantage to use tiktok to get your message out. It will reach far and wide and that's what is needed. Listen you are on Xhitter lol and you deserve a social media purple heart for that nightmare!
Apparently the TASS reporter live streamed the exchange and well, wtf? No actually it's just another proof point as to what is actually happening and has been happening right before our eyes. Hoping more opened, real wide.
Trump and Vance are clearly unfit for the offices that they hold. Trump was bad enough the first time and is much worse now. He says "Russia, Russia, Russia" like maybe he dreams about living here. He has had their "help" since 2015 or before.
The entire world except for the commies are condemning Trump and Vance, and the rest of his supporters. They do not speak for Americans anymore. For someone who can't spell to require English as the National Language is too much.
Reminder that we guaranteed military security to Ukraine in exchange for them giving up their nukes when the Society Union dissolved. It is a disgrace that Trump wants to bully Zelenskyy into trading away mineral rights and won’t even offer security in exchange. But we can’t be trusted, anyway, obviously. Our word no longer means anything. Trump and Vance have brought National shame upon us.
All they did was talk over him. He didn't say anything adverse until he was met with falsehoods. How could he NOT correct it? Macron and Starmer certainly did. Plus he was speaking in a second language. Do Trump and Vance even speak another language. No. Zelensky is SO far above those buffoons.
Great picture! :) This is a very good summary of what's happening right now too!
I'm sharing a post that Taegan Goddard just authored and put up on his Political Wire site, and I honestly think he's right on. Zelenskyy is super smart and has an amazing skillset. He is a true hero.
"The extraordinary scene at the White House yesterday—where President Trump berated Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelensky on live television—was nothing short of remarkable. It looked like an ambush set up by the White House.
But while it initially seemed like Zelensky was the big loser, perhaps it was exactly what he wanted.
Consider the following:
Trump’s envoy Keith Kellogg advised Zelensky to stay away, suggesting his relationship with Trump wasn’t very good.
Zelensky was reportedly urged to dress formally for the meeting, rather than his usual military-style attire.
Sen. Lindsey Graham (R-SC) warned Zelensky just before his meeting with Trump not to “take the bait.”
Yet Zelensky ignored all of this advice and walked straight into the lion’s den.
Why?
It’s been clear for some time that Trump wants nothing to do with Ukraine’s war effort.
Trump’s campaign rhetoric has suggested he would cut off U.S. support entirely, and this week, the United States sided with Russia, North Korea, and Iran at the United Nations in refusing to condemn Moscow’s invasion.
By forcing a dramatic, public confrontation, Zelensky ensured there would be no illusions about where Trump stands. And in doing so, he may have strengthened his hand.
European leaders quickly rallied behind him, with the leaders of Germany, France, Spain, Poland, and the Netherlands publicly reaffirming their support for Ukraine. Zelensky responded personally to each of them, thanking them for standing with his country.
Now in London for a summit hosted by British Prime Minister Keir Starmer—who has made clear the U.K. remains unwavering in its backing of Ukraine—Zelensky has achieved something significant.
Rather than clinging to false hope that Trump would continue to aid Ukraine, he has effectively turned the page. His strategy now rests on Europe, where support for Ukraine has only hardened in response to Trump’s hostility.
Zelensky may have lost America, but he may have just solidified the support he can actually rely on."
Adam. I just wanted to thank you for your video yesterday. I reposted it on FB and it was shared after that among many friends and colleagues including some in and from the Ukraine.
I am almost old enough to be your father, but yesterday's message was the first time I heard an honest, pragmatic, observation that didn't pull any punches but put it in perspective both in the immediate and long term and with it, I heard my late father in your words, demeanor and observations.
You represent everything he did as a intelligent grounded man's man, and an old school Republican. Though most of the people I shared your words/video with are more left leaning it made no difference, as it should and used to.
I just wanted to write and thank you for that. You are a good man, who speaks from the heart not the ideology, and agree or not on some subjects, I have even more respect for you and what you do.
I’m in favor of all Dem Reps and Senators boycotting the Address to Joint Congress. I and my indivisible group, feel that the Democrats should stand on the steps of the Capitol Bldg with camera crew there, and speak directly to the American people. The convicted felon does not deserve their time and we are the people need to hear from people who will give us truth.
We’re trying to get this message out to all the Democrats even though it’s the last minute and we have no idea if they would be willing to do this but it’s about time for them to use their power to do something significant. What do you think?
It’s all very unnerving. This is why we are trying to do this grassroots movement and have the Democrats boycott. They should show solidarity and present to the American people from the steps of the Capitol Bldg.
We need as many people as possible to call their Congress people and their senators immediately . If you would be willing to do this, every bit helps. We have no time to waste and try to preserve democracy.
I love the idea. Unfortunately, in Alaska, we have nothing but complicit Republicans, so my daily emails are only good for venting sessions. I used to think Murkowski would hold the line, but she caved just like the rest of the cowards in what they're still trying to pass off as the Republican Party, It is not the Republican Party. It is an evil mutation of the once great Republican Party. Truly, it is much more of a cult than a political party Still, I think it's a great idea, If I could contact a Democrat member of Congress, I would urge them to do just that.
Yes, it certainly does seem to be a cult these days. I appreciate your words. We’re going to do our best. I don’t know how, but I have to keep thinking that we’re going to be able to change all this insanity and somehow hold onto some semblance of our democracy so that we can rebuild it.
I also object to the press' description of this as a "Shouting Match" as it implies both sides were shouting. Actually, it was the PINO Trump and VP Vance shouting at and interrupting a calm President Zelensky.
Great point. I was thoroughly impressed with the way Zelensky kept his composure. I was like the Ukrainian Ambassador, with my face in my hands. It was one of the lowest moments of my long life,
I am totally disgusted with this admin. There are more important things to worry about than the clothes President Zellensky wears. Bottom line: Trump hosted this meeting. That is totally unacceptable for a host of anything to behave that way toward a guest. Trump and Vance lack the class and decency to host anything.
Adam, I was horrified watching Zelensky being raked over the coals by the orange man-baby and his boot lickers Vance, Rubio et al. As I watched Zelenskyy’s face, I thought about how much he has to endure in his country, shouldering the horrors of his countrymen and women., navigating a defense against Russia that no one thought they could last 3 months let alone 3 years. Then he had sit and listen to the bulls**t of two of the biggest idiots in America yelling at him that he should be more thankful to the US. He has thanked us many times, said as much in speeches and when he has addressed the UN. We can’t give up fighting for truth, same government that works for ALL of us. We stand and fight with you.
News flash. Vlodamir Zelensky is now the leader of the free world.
We need Starmer, Macron and soon Chancellor Merz to step on the "European military industrial complex" pedal ASAP.
SAVE OUR COUNTRY!!! I personally never thought that it would ever get this bad, so here we are. If anybody out there thinks for a moment that their will be no need of sacrifice is sadly mistaken. I don't mean the sacrifices that our combat soldiers and their families have had to deal with. The Supreme Court will be the last domino to fall, if that happens all hands on deck because your freedom is at stake. What all hands on deck means to me:
1. Massive protest: https://www.nytimes.com/interactive/2017/01/22/us/politics/womens-march-trump-crowd-estimates.html
2. Flooding the town hall meetings, Phone/E-mails/Message to anybody that will listen.

Thank you for posting.
I think Trump and Doge are already brining down the economy.
This sounds really crazy -- That needs to happen -- "Burn down the economy"
Once you get into Joe and Jane Doe's pocket then your get their attention, and their vote!!!!!!
Only way to stop the Trump Train.
RINO -- Ed
NO DEBT CEILING CHANGE!
excellent - let's also share the wins, what we are doing that is working, with each other at this site and others
Republicans have stopped town hall meetings. Gee, I wonder why. The best thing to do is call and leave messages. Emails are easily dismissed. I have joined Country First. Having parents who lived as children in Hitler's Germany, having relatives who had to live in communist country and born and raised as a Canadian with an American citizenship, heck, yes I am fighting. And I am fighting to honor my veteran husband who gave his live for this country.
Some of us have that special reason for why we need to get rid of this tyrant and his cult. Arlington National Cemetery, Vietnam Memorial, World War II Memorial, Etc,Etc. and 250 years of fighting to keep tyrants like this from running our country. "We The People" will prevail!!! Vietnam Veteran.
General consumer boycott for discretionary spending. I’ve already started; I started on Inauguration Day. Maybe to escalate to a national strike.
They've already begun!
They also need to stop looking and speaking so weakly. Trump cannot be trusted AT ALL, so there is no point entertaining retaining the US alliance. He's out. And if he's in, it's only to be a double agent. It's clear he views the Russia-US alliance as the way of taking over the world - Russian aggression with US resources. I wish Europe would stop acting so scared of an alliance without the US, because it's not helpful.
I'm a registered Republican -- (did NOT vote for Trump). I'm concerned about his (Trump's) temperament.
Yesterday news conference was frightening to watch!
RINO -- ED
Yeah. And trump has the ability to launch our nuclear missiles! Very frightening indeed. To think that there is no (known) psychological testing requirement for anyone holding that ability is beyond my comprehension!
Zelenskyy kept his calm and cool while being attacked on television. He is smart enough to see a con coming. He sustained normal level tones, in his 2nd language while fending off "smarty pants Vance" (well, he thinks so) and 47 (not so "smarty pants") AND not selling out his country.
Think about what leadership means and the qualities that define it; now think of the 3 named above. Which one better fits that description?
indeed - and leading with courage, dignity, not driven by personal interest, ego or pettiness - an inspiration
The US president sure can't claim that anymore.
This person in particular has never led with dignity nor courage. I just can’t bring myself to refer to drumpf as a “president”. He is not my president.
Same. In fact he's only Putin's president.
Well deserved!❤️
You could open the entire thing and I'd still support. As far as I'm concerned the more people seeing your stuff, the better.
Thanks man
You should create 1 min TikTok videos (seriously). While it's not banned (and I doubt this will ever happen, since Trump just wants his kickback) - might as well use it!
I’ve been debating this. I don’t like TikTok because of the China thing but if it’s here to stay, well gotta compete
I share everything and restack everything you do here on substack. I think it's important that you do make vital information sharable to everyone ( the videos especially) I share it wherever and anywhere i can. A lot if people are still asleep and in denial
I love the videos and I live the new backdrop.of the statue of liberty i find it's easier to focus on you and your message. I also love that you post as well. I feel it is to our advantage to use tiktok to get your message out. It will reach far and wide and that's what is needed. Listen you are on Xhitter lol and you deserve a social media purple heart for that nightmare!
I second that!!!
I agree. I have paid subscriptions to some independent media and people on Substack in order to support them and what they are doing.
Absolutely!
TOTALLY AGREE
Same here, I'll still support 👍👍👍
Yep- same here
It was a planned ambush because they were playing good cop bad cop. This is amateur hour.
Russian TASS fake news agency was present in the Russian White House! It was a complete setup, like other people on social media wrote already.
Apparently the TASS reporter live streamed the exchange and well, wtf? No actually it's just another proof point as to what is actually happening and has been happening right before our eyes. Hoping more opened, real wide.
They never intended to make a deal with him and go against Putin. So, they used the opportunity to show MAGA how tough they were.
Yes, MAGAs are all about bullying, and so they love what happened in the Oval office yesterday. The British PM full on embraced Zelenskyy today!
https://www.yahoo.com/news/zelenskyy-embraced-british-prime-minister-184011242.html
It was a WWF tag team.
Trump and Vance are clearly unfit for the offices that they hold. Trump was bad enough the first time and is much worse now. He says "Russia, Russia, Russia" like maybe he dreams about living here. He has had their "help" since 2015 or before.

I’m just glad it being bro casted so the world can see what weak/grift Trump, JD and the minions are truly like.

I've noticed that the speech is being billed as "The Presidential Address to Congress" and not "The State of the Union Address"
I don't know the reason for this change, but it seems clear to me that someone has concluded that there is no 'Union' anymore.
The way the two parties talk about each other (ESPECIALLY the Republicans), maybe the title change is justified. 🥺🥺🥺
It’s all very unnerving. This is why we are trying to do this grassroots movement and have the Democrats boycott. They should show solidarity and present to the American people from the steps of the Capitol Bldg.
We need as many people as possible to call their Congress people and their senators immediately . If you would be willing to do this, every bit helps. We have no time to waste and try to preserve democracy.
Thank you for your comments. Much appreciated.
Take care and be well, friend
I agree! I am calling my electeds first thing to ask them to this.
Thank you! We’re all in this together. We appreciate you.
We don't have to ask. We need to demand. They work for us. They need to hear and see the word RESIGN.
I love the idea. Unfortunately, in Alaska, we have nothing but complicit Republicans, so my daily emails are only good for venting sessions.

Let MSNBC, CNN, MeidasTouch report on the Dems “State of the Union”
I also object to the press' description of this as a "Shouting Match" as it implies both sides were shouting. Actually, it was the PINO Trump and VP Vance shouting at and interrupting a calm President Zelensky.
Great point. I was thoroughly impressed with the way Zelensky kept his composure. I was like the Ukrainian Ambassador, with my face in my hands. It was one of the lowest moments of my long life,
Excellent point!
totally agree!
Right on, because Musk clearly doesn’t, they’re just behaving like school yard bullies.
7th grade school yard bullies
Trump is a jackass!
I am totally disgusted with this admin. There are more important things to worry about than the clothes President Zellensky wears. Bottom line: Trump hosted this meeting. That is totally unacceptable for a host of anything to behave that way toward a guest. Trump and Vance lack the class and decency to host anything.
They attacked him after he said that Putin was a murderer and a terrorist. Therefore, they were defending Putin.
Adam, I was horrified watching Zelensky being raked over the coals by the orange man-baby and his boot lickers Vance, Rubio et al. As I watched Zelenskyy’s face, I thought about how much he has to endure in his country, shouldering the horrors of his countrymen and women., navigating a defense against Russia that no one thought they could last 3 months let alone 3 years.
