Keep up the good work. The mainstream press now resembles the newspapers in the Old South: whatever Dementia Donald Crow says is gospel and the hand of god is on his endeavors. A fascist government tries to control the public discourse and history. As long as you and we are able we must resist this mental and emotional suffocation.

Abortion Every Day is wonderful. Jessica & Kylie do a great job. Women's healthcare must be given priority right now with Trump & the GOP trying to make us 2nd class citizens.

Here's another thing MSM and even Substack doesn't talk about

Cheeto Pretends That America Is Not Broke (https://bit.ly/4mCI1xJ)

In 1971 Nixon took America off the gold standard because of the run on the Treasury to exchange dollars for the country’s gold(you might remember France’s Charles DeGaulle running that effort?) In 1973 the dollar crashed and viola the price of gold by the Fed’s slight of hand was revalued to prevent debasement of the currency Since that time the purchasing power of the dollar has lost 98% of its value since 1973 due to both Nazi and Democratic overspending Since the purchasing power of the currency is tied to inflation, this is the real reason Americans are having trouble making ends meet And this is the Fed and many administration’s dirty little secret that it has been keeping from the American people for 50 years of spendthrift government policies

Now the Fed, Cheeto, and Bessent are getting ready for another debasement of the currency to keep the government afloat But since the government is in a debt trap, any raising of bond yields to entice foreign investors to buy American debt will in essence force Cheeto into another bankruptcy….his fifth and this one is a doozie since it involves a whole country

And our adversaries, Russia and China, are sitting on large gold reserves, multiples of what the US has If Cheeto debases the currency by raising the price of gold, they win Fiat money(currency not tethered to a gold standard) is doomed and the 50 year old ride is over The dollar is on its last leg and lesson learned…..get out of dollars and into gold or silver and stay away from bitcoin

Hi Susan here's an idea Greg Palast interview

What’s Behind Cheeto’s DOJ Demanding State Voter Rolls?

In his multipronged approach to rig the upcoming 2026 midterm elections, Cheeto got the Nazis in Texas to pick up 5 additional seats pending a court ruling as to the constitutionality of this mid census power play

But Cheeto is also demanding that 9 Democratic states hand over their voter rolls But for what purpose? Perhaps not so obvious in this power move is to get hold of voter information and use that to purge registered voters from the rolls by using the successful technique the Nazis used in the 2024 election as reported by investigative journalist Greg Palast in his Vigilantes Inc(bit.ly/41UelTx interview begins at 5 minutes) This Nazi voter suppressive gimmick disenfranchised enough votes that had it not happened would have led to a Harris victory So the important thing WE the People need to focus on to secure our vote

Why go after mail in votes? This would push voters to the polls where Cheeto plans to intimidate and interfere with voting using military troops

Why this is not being reported on Substack channels is just wrong and not explainable Wake up Meidas, Schmidt, Kasparov, Parnas!!!! This is ridiculous that this information is not being sent around

This is exactly the issue we've needed to address for a long while now. The legacy media jumped all over Joe Biden for showing his age after the first presidential debate last year, and they turned Jack Tapper's screed into coverage fodder for weeks. Yet, through all of that Donald Trump has been saying downright lunatic things like banging on about Hannibal Lecter, and sharks vs batteries, and how much gold tat he's adding to OUR White House - all while the legacy media treats this like its totally normal. So, thank you for finally talking about the media and its lousy, lazy coverage of Trump. Media capitulation is one of the first ways countries lose their democracies.

So, maybe my post was relevant after all. Speaking of "independent media", TLP should take the first step by maintaining its integrity.

Sorry to all for posting this concern here, but I've been making a monthly contribution to Lincoln Square for over two years, yet they want me to pay to "Upgrade". I've tried every means I can think of to resolve this but, for the past several months it's been impossible to reach their customer service. So now I've finally acquiesced to "upgrading" for a month so I can at least make my voice heard. You're losing me, Rick... your reporting is great but your cs sucks.

This so important corp owned media is failing hard. They hold Dems to one standard and GQP to another.

100% and it's got to be called out loudly and clearly, continuously; it is so serious that war crimes trials should in some cases include mainstream media's complicit silence
