Duckworth knows exactly where Trump’s wars lead — and she refused to let him drag the country into another one. That’s courage. That’s leadership. That’s inspiring.
Here’s what I hope everyone sees. These aren’t just headlines — they’re real wins. The kind that remind us the fight isn’t hopeless, and the guardrails still hold when people push. That’s why we do this work.
Yes Cuba. Sadly I’m hearing rumblings of a pending false flag attack that Cuba will be blamed for an all on drone assault on the US allowing Trump to cancel the midterms.
I’m forgetting where I got this but the reporting was that the Soviet Ship that was allowed through our unhinged Cuba embargo a while back, could very well have been carrying said drones.
Scott, indications are that Trump is going to trot out his kangaroo klatch of "intelligence" bosses to claim that China interfered in the Georgia Senatorial elections. I sincerely hope that Governor Kemp is prepared to immediately debunk Trump's claims. I'd also like to see a wave of derision during and after Trump's address. Then - it is time to go over the people who are aiding and abetting this blatant attack on our Democracy.
I’m glad Governor Hochal is acting to freeze the AI farms. And I think the electricity is a very big deal. But I am just as concerned, maybe even more so, about the water because even if they pay for the electricity, they’re messing up the water big-time. The water goes out as I understand it with a huge amount of pollution in it even if it goes in clean. I don’t read much about the water problem, although some communities have noticed it and don’t want their limited supplies of clean water used for this purpose.
I see absolutely no reason for data centers to receive a tax break. For what???!!! They are getting paid to sneak in, pollute the water, steal electricity and take tax money away from the state. WE DO NOT NEED DATA CENTERS!
Ohio is fighting against these corporate power sieges.Ohio is rated #1 for doing business by CNBC. Coincidentally, it's ranked 35th for workers & 35th nationally for K-12. Hmmmm.......
I want voting rights protected, fair voting counts and prevention of poll intimidation. The do nothing Congress will do nothing about the illegal activity to steal the election. Voting in Nov is our only hope. Rejection of Todd Blanche is part of protecting our votes.

Grateful for your work and words of encouragement, Sam!
Thanks to the Democrats who Refused to Fund the Illegal war.
Not just this war, but Cuba is next on the list! As though we don’t have enough war already.

He can’t take over the elections, they are run by the states. For a more hopeful outlook on that subject, read Robert Hubbell’s column today.
I think an invasion of Cuba would turn into another Vietnam. It's not Venezuela by a long shot.

Scott Dworkin, you do journalism the muckraker way; thank you.
Please keep fighting and thank you!!!!
Good morning, Scott. SO grateful for the work you do.
When was the last time a piece of news actually gave you hope? YOUR NEWSLETTER...EVERY DAY!
I love seeing the cracking apart and collapse of this administration’s loudmouths. Musk deserves every investigation into his lawless behavior.
First France and finally USA. Now, if we can bring the DOGE ninnies to trial and what they actually did with the data they stole.
Ah, a bit of good news. More than necessary on a day when we have to steel ourselves for the evening's disaster.

6/25/26 Go Blue Poem.
Strength isn't changing Defense to the War department.
Or firing generals to make a self-serving statement.
The latest to go is General Donahue.
Earning his stars in combat. That's what professionals do.
His leadership skills are undeniably true.
An elite warrior with plenty of experience too.
Leaving the service before his time was due.
This scene has played out time after time.
A poor plan by Pete Hegseth's evil design.
A military once led by battled hard experience.
Now they're being led according to political alliance.
Hegseth doesn't value experience or a woman's worth
His misogyny disrespects the sacrifices of women, like Senator Duckworth
Our military was once the envy of the world.
Now rank is political, putting soldiers in a whirl.
A soldier's qualifications are no longer in demand.
It's politics now. The military be damned.
Questions not answered, but the Press keeps trying.
Is politics worth the risk of soldiers dying?
To please a president who always needs affirmation.
By weakening the military and our nation.
Our country's anniversary is onĺy weeks away.
Forefathers crying, because of what is happening today.
Losing wars because of politics getting in the way.
Generals being silenced for what they might say.
Explanations now turned into excuses.
All because of a president's abuses.
The military remade in the eyes of fools.
Forgoing experience, for politics to use as their tools.
The transformation of our government is stark.
Leaving the Congress mostly in the dark.
What has happened to Honor, Service and Country?
Is loyalty to one man better than one's duty?
Our strength has always been in our diversity.
Now they're using the same play-book of stupidity.
The problem was never in our Military.
It's always been leadership accountability.
We need the rescue of an upcoming blue wave.
Before we're all are living back in a cave.
Our president's stone-man mentality.
Is destroying our land, policy by policy.
No one is capable of stopping this insanity.
A blue vote in the fall, is our responsibility.
To save the country from falling further in disgrace.
Restoring the honor in Congress that we place.
Please share my poems along with Steve Schmidt's The Warning's message. As always peace ✌️ Pat (Packy) Paules
Thanks Scott!
