Jack Smith, Trump’s Target, Shifts From Defense to Counterattack
https://www.nytimes.com/2025/11/03/us/politics/jack-smith-trump-investigations.html?unlocked_article_code=1.yU8.sj78.yWE-fYXVBamZ&smid=url-share

The ruling Trump gang is pursuing a strategy of overwhelming the public by using a rapid fire machine gun flooding the public sphere with masses of emotional information shit, in keeping with Bannon's strategy to "flood the zone with shit".
"...
As cognitive scientists Keith Stanovich and Richard West have shown, humans possess two systems of thought:
One fast and emotional, the other slow and deliberative.
Trump keeps the public in the first mode — triggered, reactive, impulsive. Under Trump, critical reasoning collapses from emotional overload.
The threat, then, isn’t just misinformation; it’s misreasoning.
...
If you’ve found yourself burnt out, exhausted, confused, dejected and dismayed as you process the daily onslaught of the Trumpian team, you now know why.
And while it might be tempting to allow awareness of these authoritarian tactics to sow depression, that would be playing right into Trump’s hands.
Understanding the power of authoritarian confusion must breed clarity, not despair.
The more we grasp how Trumpism corrodes thought, the better equipped we are to defend it — because the fight for democracy always begins in the mind.
..."
Do not let your ability to think be corroded by Trumpism's confusion & confusing stategy!

If we had that rule, we'd exclude experienced people with good ideas, for a completely arbitrary reason.
There's no version of term limits that is any better than simply electing better candidates.

CBS/Paramount/Skydance Media or whatever the fuck they are now already set a precedent by paying the bronzed up idiot 16 million dollars over his frivolous whines about editing down a Kamala Harris interview that had no bearing on anything.

Chicago Tribune: Chicago woman dragged out of her car after colliding with ICE demands accountability
"As Figueroa tried to drive through the 1600 block of West Hubbard Street on Friday, Oct. 10, an unmarked vehicle driven by federal agents collided with Figueroa’s as it tried to speed away from a hostile crowd, multiple videos reviewed by the Tribune show.
Seconds after the crash, agents abruptly stopped their vehicle and exited with weapons in hand pointing at Figueroa, a U.S citizen. Agents then forcibly opened her door and pulled her out of the vehicle by her legs without identifying themselves, presenting a warrant or informing her that she was under arrest. As bystanders yelled, “You hit her! We have it on video!” agents ignored the crowd and forced Figueroa into a red minivan and drove away. ...
The Department of Homeland Security later released a statement claiming that Figueroa was at fault, saying “she crashed into an unmarked government vehicle and violently resisted arrest, injuring two officers.”
