I’m from Illinois and our Governor just did a state of the state address and he said it took the nazis 1month, 3weeks,2days to dismantle a constitutional republic. I strongly believe that is what we are seeing happen right now.

That Governor is rocking it. I hope that he can stay strong. This is going to get so dark so quickly, I am afraid.

Exactly what we are seeing! This is all spelled out in project 2025! Wait till the Christian Nationalist start invading our schools and believe me they don’t teach Christianity they teach power & control😡They will teach our little boys that they control the girls and will teach our little girls to submit to the boys and their role is in the house having WHITE babies😡😡Look up Joel Webbon he is a Christian Nationalist pastor who preaches about executing women in public if they can’t prove they were raped! Yes it’s true! He says executing a few women in public will stop the #metoo movement real fast 😡He also says women shouldn’t vote because if women vote we won’t have a Christian country! Look him up for yourself! He needs to be exposed! The Christian Nationalist are coming! It’s in project 2025😡👺😈

Look up HR22 save act. This is a work around bill because Republicans know they dont have the votes to repeal the 19th Amendment. It states you must prove your identity. Birth certificates that have a different name then your ID if you are married. Won't be valid. Your birth certifcate and I'd must have the same last name. So all those woman married who took their husband's last name won't get to vote.

Yes this is the first step to get women back in the house and out of the workplace 😡Next closing public schools and rural areas and poor people won’t have access to education because it will be private, expensive, and no school buses so getting to school will be hard! So MOM STAYS home and homeschools😡 Next, close daycares and same thing will happen, private only, too expensive so mom has to stay home to keep the kids! Now women are no longer on the workforce but at home where they belong in the kitchen serving their man and having WHITE ONLY children 😡😡This is what the Christian Nationalist want and project 2025 is giving it to them 😡👺😈

He may be racking up votes, but he needs to be building coalitions with other governors, particularly Republican governors...

They should have started building up this coalition in January, Or before! We all knew this was going to happen. Why was nothing done other than us talking amongst ourselves? The people with the power and the real voices have done nothing. I too am terrified because it's way too late. This is like bringing a knife to a gun fight.

Yeah, no. We can't let him take media. The meda and news has been my only hope for the country not to be fully dismantled. If he gets controlled of all news outlets, we are fucked.

I tried to share this with Bluesky, but couldnt get it to post. Im not even trying to share stuff on X or FB anymore. I strongly suspect they are filtering out information negative to the"regime". They want o control ALL information flow.

They are absolutely 100% censoring what goes up on Instagram Facebook as well as x. I've given up on every single one of those platforms.

Complete hypocrisy!!! They think they're going to control the propaganda machine. With independent journalism, they don't stand a chance!! Keep it up, Aaron!

My fear is they do stand a chance. If this is all the public sees, their propaganda and harmful misinformation- not only the maga cultist public but the majority of republican households - they will only see what these project 2025 weirdos want them to see which means nothing will change except the loss of democracy. My sliver of hope is closing daily.

I think I'm gonna do as the man in Home Depot told me a year ago…. “To go back to where I came from” …. America is now eating itself from the inside out. We all need to collectively do something before something is done to us. Its already festering…. Are we just gonna sit and watch it get more infected and rot away?? No one can save us, but us.

I hope you are ALL doing something to stop this and not just SAYING we all need to do something (sorry for the caps but I couldn’t change the font)! There are many grass root groups that are doing things about this!

Truth Will Prevail You Can’t Backdown To These Lying Bullies. They Have All Those Sickening And Disgusting Fake Lying No News Channels There. Because There Like Trump And Worships This Corrupt Clown And His Minions. They Are Nuts Like Him And Will Continue To Spread There Lies And Propaganda To People Who Watch There Pathetic Channels. But Thank God For People Like You And Others Who Are Not Backing Down To These Losers.

Having Conservative talking heads fits his narrative. And if access is reduced, those less committed to those media outlets may have to seek sources elsewhere. That’s the upside, if there is one. As well, it puts the Conservatives in a disinformation bubble, eliminating confusion to those less dedicated to the Trump delusional machine. Yet another constitutional right eroded by this elected Government.

They are treating us just like China, Russia & North Korea!! WTF!!! I'm so thankful that my friend introduced me to MTN & all of the other 'Independent News' outlets. I am new to this (not even 2 months in) & it is refreshing to hear the unadulterated news reported. Thank you for all you do to keep us informed.

Canceling all their subscriptions assures they will stay stupid of what is really happening and will become victims of their lying echo chamber.

We cannot back down. We can, however, apologize when we mischaracterize...we are going to have to cross the political aisle to successfully resist Trump's takeover...

Notice that the mainstream media has not been showing the protests. Instead of an impartial view, we again, are reduced to them choosing, whether they can get into the Whitehouse briefing room or not. That is just the same kind of press crap Donald Trump was talking about. He's put plenty of people through hell. What makes him so punitive and small.

Just watched this morning “I’ve Had It” podcast and the ladies were spot on describing the moron president who is the useful idiot front man to sign whatever the broligarchs want. We are being absorbed by Voght and his evil amoral henchmen who are true believers in the destruction of our democracy.
