How Democracy is Caving In
The foundation of our country built from the Constitution, natural rights, accountability, and democracy is caving in on us. While the corrupt maneuvers and inhumane policy of Republicans are causing the structure to fail, not all Democrats are joining the fight to keep it from breaking beyond repair. Americans are already suffocating under the ruble, so it is crucial to learn who's causing the problem and what we can do about it.
Blue Wave, Red Tide
On this past election day, Democrats secured key victories that have set forth a new blue wave, but the toxic red tide of Republicans still remains. ICE raids around every corner, closures of welfare programs, and authoritarianism are tarnishing the celebrations of this recent success. We are stuck in a sea of corruption where more blue waves in the midterms and next presidential election are required to wash us safely onto shore. This newsletter covers the dangers we are facing at sea and how we can stay afloat.
Nightmare on Pennsylvania Avenue
Halloween may be over, but the frights taking over our country are not going away. Every headline mentioning Trump’s unconstitutional wishes, authoritarian actions, and evil policy feels like a jump scare. The ghosts and ghouls haunting America are not playful creatures but slimy politicians attempting to hide their wickedness under a blanket of lies. Shining a light on the scares, this newsletter calls out the headlines and shares what kinds of haunts await the American people.
Democracy vs. Monarchy: The Fight for America
Trump is set on turning our democracy into a monarchy. From pardoning corrupt allies to demolishing the White House, Trump is doing everything he can to seize control. The American people, like the generation before them who faced a king, are standing up to this tyranny in historic numbers. Trump is refusing to listen to his fellow citizens, seeing them as subjects instead of his source of authority—forgetting that in a democracy, his power comes from the consent of the governed. This newsletter highlights the latest overreaches of Trump and how Americans can keep fighting for our country.
Layover in Authoritarianism
Americans are stuck on a plane filled with chaotic passengers, rocked by turbulence, and heading towards an uncertain destination. Trump and his allies are flying the plane and have landed us at a stop named authoritarianism. As we watch democracy disappear from sight, we remain stuck in a layover whose duration remains unknown. This newsletter covers the ebbs and flows of the week, pointing out when our pilots veer off course and what the passengers can do about it.

The Narrative of Power
The two parties of our country are in a battle to write the headlines.

We must fight back against authoritarianism before it makes our once respected democracy unrecognizable.

Politics is the trip nobody signed up for, but everyone’s stuck on the bus.

Lights, Camera, Disaster
The state of American politics feels too chaotic to be real.

This newsletter reads between the static and calls out the villains, who unlike those on screen, cannot be stopped by just powering off the television. To stop our movie, we need the civilians to stand up and fight because no superhero is coming to save us.
