I am so tired y'all, but I just wanted to say thank you for everything. You all have allowed me to have a voice, a platform, and do this full-time, and for that, I am forever grateful.

I love what I do, and I could do it thanks to you!

Aaron, You are doing a GREAT job! You have taken on a monumental task. It warms this 65 year old recently retired attorney's heart to see young people, like yourself, stepping up to the plate. Pace yourself, you have stepped into the middle of a giant tornado. It will pass eventually but the wave of destruction will be vast. Your reporting will be crucial in the days ahead. Hold on tight!

From this 67 yr old retired Psychiatric Social Worker, I wholeheartedly agree with you. It warms my heart to see such a young, very intelligent, hard working young man do so well. They are our future and old folks need to give them their turn. Wishing Aaron all the best for a bright future. Certainly off to a great start

Right here with you, Aaron. Please do remember to eat and sleep - we can't have you collapsing from exhaustion. This is a marathon. You will need your strength.

I appreciate all of your work in reporting news! I am a huge fan and never miss a post.

What I would like asked of any and all of the Democratic Party: Why are you here, if it’s not to make a ruckus and rail against the new policies?

I believe that if you are a Democrat, you either are here to make a ruckus, and without any applause, or stay home.

I'm tired, too. I can only imagine how you're feeling! I definitely appreciate what you provide us on the daily. You're my #1 news source right now. Keep the faith.

Thank you for your dedication and hard work, Aaron. I can only imagine how exhausting this must be, but your efforts in reporting on Trump’s "dealings" are incredibly valuable and deeply appreciated

So students can be arrested for wearing masks also, but the neo-yahtzees that keep showing up in cities and marching are fine. Got it.

Unplug if you can, Lover. Just for long enough to breathe. You are alive. You are full of rage and courage. You can resist. Call, boycott, march, and connect with the local chapter of any national grassroots organization.

I can't unplug. I just can't. I WANT to stick my head in the sand but I can't. I don't have the money for the constant influx of donation requests. I can't do anything but make calls and send emails but it seems to accomplish nothing. I work weekends, thus can't even attend most protests. I am so angry and frustrated. Why aren't those who can do something doing anything?!

I am with you, Love. Listen to Chuck Schumer. It won't happen overnight, but if we keep calling, emailing, texting, petitioning, boycotting, protesting, showing up, and booing, in 3 months, Trump's approval rating will tank, and his MAGA Crime Syndicate will distance themselves from him.

It's already working. His numbers are already slipping.

Hang tight, Angel. We're almost there.

Please ask Democrats what they are doing to start a national resistance? They aren’t doing enough. Jeffries is acting like a zombie. Can they lead protests?

We should have all marched on DC tonight protesting his state of the union

Canada, If you’re there please shut off the electricity to USA states

Expand full comment

i wish they could pick the red states to shut power off too- new york and mn are both blue and i feel like it’s not going to get the attention it needs

Expand full comment

MI is part of that too and I’m in MI. Things are going to get so bad turning off electricity will seem minor

Expand full comment

Maybe shut it off for just the red states and boycott red state industries. Sadly, the non-trump supporters will suffer, along with those who voted him into office.

Expand full comment

The thought would be nice and would put pressure on people to start pushing back. But we are also weak and the people don’t deserve to be a pawn in a mental unstable Orange man and a criminal musk.

Expand full comment

Except, why punish the people that support him? Why not take it out on the one person responsible for making such decisions (for the people that he doesn't even care about)?

Expand full comment

b/c the ones that did not support him should not have to endure the sufferings of this administration.

We are going to be punished anyway, you’ll see

Please do it in the summer! Trump doesn't care if people die in cold weather. We can't have people dying!

People ARE going to die granny. You’ll see. I BEG Canada to shut it off NOW 🤷🏻‍♀️

It'll just start a war - a real war, it'll give Trump the "excuse" to invade Canada.

I fear Vance is even more diabolical than Trump- if that's possible.

Anyone who has studied Vance even a little bit, knows he is worse than Trump unfortunately! THE WHOLE DAMN BUNCH ARE TREASONOUS AND NEED TO GO!

If I were a college student I would be mass protesting today, and if I were a professor I would be organizing it. Breaking “the law” is best done by the thousands.

Morning Aaron, I want to know what is the larger plan of Democrats to stop this president? Right now every corner of our government is collapsing. There voices aren’t ringing out.

We want to let all congress people know as well as Musk that the American people WILL NOT STAND for Social Security to be cut in any way!!!!! This is our own money!!

And we are owed this & deserve this!!

Where does the money from tariffs go?

Expand full comment

Tax cuts for billionaires.

Expand full comment

I ask myself that same question, and we all know the answer - in one of Trumps bank accounts

Expand full comment

It gets paid to the respective government. So Trumps tariffs on imports, that gets paid to USCBP. It's a tax

Last time money was give to farmers who were going bankrupt due to tariffs. This time farmers are losing USAID sales and China Canada Mexico. The art of the deal

Good morning! If you have the chance, a whistleblower is saying that social security is being gutted -lay outs that will slow and disorganize. It’s being done quietly by DOGE to avoid opposition but allegedly could affect payments in 30-90 days.

I know Klobachar is aware and a few others - QUESTION - are senators/reps aware and what do they plan to do to stop this?

Expand full comment

The biggest part of me doesn't want this to happen because so many people rely on that... but a tiny small part does, only just long enough where my grandparents and dad finally realize WHAT they voted for. They still think he's the best thing and i need something to effect them that he does where they finally get it😭
