Earlier this week, I sat down with Congressman Jason Crow, a former Army Ranger and Bronze Star recipient, to talk about the prospect of Donald Trump using the US military or engaging in conflict to distract from the chaos sweeping his administration:
"The tragedy of war is that good men and women die fighting each other in distant lands, when they should be back home fighting the traitors in their capitals." -Edward Abbey
It is interesting and cause for hope that guardrails controlled by "We the People" are functioning to restrain the Trump regime, as in the grand jury refusing to indict Jason Crowe and the other five Congressmen who dared tell soldiers to disobey illegal orders. Other popular guardrails like the right to protest and speak out against government are also going full steam ahead. We must prevent Trump from disenfranchising people likely to vote against him; he will use threats, fear, gerrymandering, and flat out cheating to win. If he doesn't get away with it, many rotten apples will be swept from Congress and the executive branch toward the end of this year.
Unless the people and nations of the world rein in their tribal emotions and greed, war will remain an existential threat; our short-sightedness, selfishness, stubbornness, and stupidity will lead to the war that will end all wars since there will be none of our species left to wreak havoc on this beautiful planet.
If you thought WWII was deadly..............the first real hot war of the 21st century will make it look like a picnic lunch on a sunny day.
Stealth bombers, drones, nukes, A.I., electronic tracking, GPS, has made warfare far more lethal.
Humanity needs to grow up. Yes, we can have difference., But we should debate and discuss then and find a solution. Not bomb, destroy and wait for one group to capitulate.
These Washington warmongers never learn. Twenty years, trillions gone, thousands of our people dead, and for what? So oil executives could get richer while kids from towns nobody's heard of came home in caskets?
Now Trump's rattling sabers at Iran to dodge Epstein headlines, and we're supposed to just accept it? Grand juries are finally telling corrupt prosecutors to go to hell, regular Americans are waking up, and guys like Crow who actually bled for this country are done being used as props for profit-driven wars.
Iran is only a dangerous distraction (as if there could be) from Epstein. And to think that it’s being “planned“ by T and Hegseth?!! Unbelievably stupid, but only what we are to expect from these two (and Miller!). Thanks, Steve, for chatting with Jason Crow.
I, like all, am SICK TO DEATH of this prez's constant lawbreaking, claims that he's a peace president, yet wanting to also show his "strength" as a war president. There are more of us, than the stupidos who continue to support him, but geeeeez, it's a long time till Nov, and EVERY DAY, it's something else. Follow the example of Minnesotans, the bravest Americans we have, and stand up for your neighbors. We are in Texas.
Republican Nazi Ethnic Cleansing: Christian Nationalism And White Discrimination
Tyler Perry’s new movie Joe’s College Road Trip(https://bit.ly/4aWaFWb) is a great expose of a pushback against the white supremacy need to erase black ethnic history so that they as victims can claim discrimination But simply substitute Hispanic for the ethnic cleansing of blacks and one gets the broad activity of ICE and its concentration camps This simply mirrors the 1930’s Hitler’s Third Reich and its Nazi racism and antisemitism….German blood purity
Christopher Mathias author of Covering the Far Right(https://bit.ly/4ky3OX2)also underscores what the Cheeto regime is hard at work trying to establish….a federal government that rewards loyalists and election denialists to the cause of white supremacy and avoiding people with expertise Case in point is the nomination of Jeremy Carl for a top diplomatic position
The Cheeto regime is clearly populating itself with white supremacists or groypers who will carry the Christian Nationalist agenda or more popularly known as Project 2025 The fact that a significant majority(66%) in national polling of this regime is against such an ideology implies that the American majority doesn’t buy into this fascist discrimination
Hi Steve, enjoyed the conversation with Jason Crow. I am wondering if you will still be able to get those names for donations we can send, that he could not give you while in his office? Loved the recent pic of the pups you posted too! Thank you for all the hard work. You are doing so much, it is heartwarming to know what is happening to save our country! Otherwise, I would be very sad thinking the worse. Stay safe!

All wars are bankers wars...
In case anyone needs a laugh to deal with all the horror of this administration, hereʻs someone doing an imitation of Pam Bondi as a waitress: https://youtu.be/WsRlYBjFYFU?si=usjYKfpaajG-7Y74
It is very fnny! And, Bondi did sound that arrogant and stupid.

Loved meeting Jason Crow on your show. He's the real deal! Gives me hope. Thank you, Steve.

Thanks, Steve. Great conversation. I have huge admiration for Rep. Jason Crow. Wish he was my congressman! Donating to his campaign now.
