In my 20s, my solution to this problem was the Green Party. However, I soon learned that they're full of big egos and lacking in democratic decision-making.

This was brilliant. I like how it tied together different aspects of policy and recent history. Question: If the Mexican paramilitaries and drug cartels all got their weapons from the US military, how are they anarchocapitalists? Just intrigued by this characterization.

Their rackets and gang activity is for profit and they do not believe in regulations or laws.

Ah, thanks for clarifying that. I once dated an anarchocapitalist and I bet he would disagree. But you make a logical point.

Maybe the US is anarchocapitalist?

Well, my understanding is that the definition of anarchocapitalism precludes government. 🤔

The final nail in the MAHA coffin was RFK’s pathetic justification for Trump’s glyphosate lack of liability following the public humiliation ritual of having him present for the Pfizer appearance hosted by Trump himself.

And now with the Epstein exposures and the imperialist attack on Iran that entire MAGA/MAHA coalition is in full retreat.

This is depressing. I read this immediately after watching President Trump's video announcement that we are now at war with Iran. I know nothing to do except continue to trust in the God who saved me fifty years ago.

Excellent article -- maybe your best yet. An interesting thing regarding Trump has emerged from reading "Zelenko: How to Decapitate the Serpent".

Dr. Zelenko, who developed an early treatment protocol of Hydroxychloroquine plus zinc and an antibiotic, was in discussions with Trump in mid 2020.

For awhile, Trump was attempting to publicize that protocol. Then he pivoted to the vaccines anyway. This is not an excuse for Trump, just curious.

Well said Jeremiah, too damn true.

I've supported the Libertarian Party for years, voted for Ron Paul 3 times in my life.

It’s exactly the same here. But now we have a party called One Nation which is showing some teeth. The other parties are terrified. And so they should be.
