Thank you Adam for your continued leadership and truth telling

Without FOX Trump and MAGA fails. If you believe as we do that MAGA fails without FOX de-fund the FOX rage and hate machine.

Eviscerate FOX with an indirect strategy that works fast. Deny FOX ad $ by denying the ad buying company CEO and execs bonuses. For example Home Depot. Boycott them for a full fiscal quarter and maybe more while keeping Wall Street analysts apprised. Get all on line influencers to post every day for the entire time ending every post every day with “Don’t forget - boycott Home Depot, they fund the FOX rage and hate machine.” See how fast CEO’s stop buying ads - do only ONE brand - do it implacably for an entire fiscal quarter. See how quickly you become the new sheriff in town and how fast other CEO’s quit buying ads. See how fast FOX changes content. All they care about is $. Oh - and next generation FOX CEO will be a decent human being if you do this.

Execution details matter. Talk to me. See Target, Bud Light and Tesla for examples. Companies are people, not paper. Make it personal.

I feel you have a great idea here!

David Holst-Grubbe's avatar

It’s an executable strategy with the help of someone like @therickwilson and @projectlincoln

Excellent idea! Capitalism at work.

I have been boycotting Home Depot for quite some time. We just need to get more people to accept an alternative to Home Depot. Unfortunately many people are driven solely on the idea of convenience. Not so for my family and I. There are almost always other ways to get what we need.

Lowe’s … Aloha, Mike

Cats 🐈🐈‍⬛'s avatar

That is our alternative!

David Holst-Grubbe's avatar

A publicly coordinated effort involving the Board, executives, analysts etc and FOX will change their narrative due to lack of funds.

Life in America is getting scarier and scarier with Trump’s regime/administration!

I so wish everyone could see why Trump is calling the Troops into a city. Speaking from Chicago, we have had mostly peaceful protests except when ICE has been using tear gas, pepper ball, and rubber bullets. ICE seems to be causing any disturbances! Not a lot of National news has been here. They finally came today because the Texas National Guard was supposed to be here but then a Judge issued a temporary order that the National Guard could not be here. So before anyone makes up their minds they should do a little digging and see what’s really happening. Adam thank you for making us aware of what you know. Stay safe!

Besides the fake news in Chicago, is everyone aware that trump’s social media is disseminating years old pictures of protests in Portland and calling them current. Today’s WSJ has a day by day account of police reports of the ICE facility in Portland and how completely low energy and small it was UNTIL the day Trump called in the troops. Even then it was peaceful just more attendance.

I think we each have to call out every lie as it happens across social media.

Trump is shoving more & more FBI agents into Noem's immigration round-up operations. Beyond the fact that this is part & parcel of the "anti-vermin" crap, it leads to another important question: how much of the FBI's actual important work isn't getting done? Who is tracking down actual terrorists - not Trump's imaginary boogeymen? Who is combating the skyrocketing and very dangerous increase in cyber crime? Who is in charge of combating human trafficking?

The FBI has very real and very important jobs, and it looks like they're being left to gather dust. Some of this is likely to kick us all in the ass, sooner rather than later.

We'll find out soon enough.

We saw it coming. If a republican congress member has an actual family member or relative get arrested by ice and held illegally, then maybe that person will say something. Right now republicans have made Trump King and he goes to the Supreme Court to get permission. This is the opposite of the constitution.

Connie Struve's avatar

Instead of military, hire more police that know the community. Help the communities financially. I understand for Trump it's about the undocumented people. But if it is about crime, help communities build a police force, with good people. Not masked ICE.

Kay G's avatar

It’s isn’t about crime. If it was that BigUglyBill would have increased funding for police and the community programs that work in conjunction with them.

Trump and Stephen Miller want fewer brown people in the country AND the Supreme Court gave them the permission to do just that.

This is all way beyond us! He has the Repubs bad mouthing Dems because they will not give in to Repubs bill to cut healthcare for most Americans. They want a civil war! He is pushing to have us fight back so they can start a war! It is sooo scary. I am 80 with MS and frustrated that I cannot do something! To make it to 80 and see my beloved country in the hands of this F…..G NAZI is maddening!

I am your age, and in relatively good heath.

but at our age, to keep any semblance of health, we must maintain hope and a positive outlook, which our current political issues seriously compromise!!

But I still read and learn and spread the word to do my best to help.

So can you!

Kathleen R Worgul's avatar

I do Marlene. Hope is crucial, although it is difficult to hold onto, especially when the Supreme Court is also a “criminal”, useless entity!

Jeannine Anderson's avatar

You can do something. We all can. I called my member of Congress today and my two senators (all Democrats) and asked them to hold fast to their stance that they will not help Republicans out of the government shutdown unless and until the GOP agrees to permanently extend the tax credits for health insurance under the Affordable Care Act. You can call the Capitol Switchboard at 202-224-3121 and ask for your member of Congress. We also can boycott businesses such as Home Depot that advertise on Fox “News.” Go to protests if you can, or even start your own protest with a few friends/family on a street corner. None of us is powerless. That’s what the fascists want us to think — that we have no power. There are a lot more of us than there are of them, and we keep the economy going by spending money. We can be more careful about the companies we do business with.

I am in OHIO red state. A NYer stuck here. I came 10 yrs ago to be near grandkids! My reps are Repubs and not helpful! We lost our Dem in last election, he is back and running. I support him. I wish I could march! Economy, taxes make it hard to move! Thanks for contact.

Robot Bender's avatar

Same here. We're in red Missouri. If we didn't have kids and grandkids to protect, we'd leave the country.

Kathleen R Worgul's avatar

I have considered leaving but at this age it is a bit difficult. I know how you feel! Hugs to you and family!

I just heard online Trump is allowing Qatar an Air Force facility in Idaho!

Quenby Morrow's avatar

And now the Qatar government will install their own Air Force base in Idaho!! Dear God! What could go wrong???

Yes, Donald John Trump kept Hitler’s Mein Kampf on his nightstand while growing up.

Marietta's avatar

Yes, Hitler had written Mein Kampf to express his hatred of Jews promoting antisemitism and racism against those he professed to see

as “enemies” of Germany. Sound familiar? He also wanted to promote Aryan superiority of blue-eyed, blonde hair Germans. Sound familiar?

He stoked division through rhetoric and fear. Sound familiar?

Today, we have Project 2025 under the directives of Stephen Miller and not Heinrich Himmler. A plan Trump denied over and over again during his campaign. Yet, here we are. Divisions between parties are worsening, laws are becoming less obeyed by certain individuals in charge, SCOTUS has turned a blind eye, and people in Trump’s cult continue to revere him as their savior. MAGA reps even want to call a special session to award their leader with a Congressional Peace Award since the Nobel Prize was awarded to a Venezuelan female who promoted democracy. Ironic.

Steve's avatar

The only award, that he deserves, is the Nobel Thief Prize.

Joseph P Popp's avatar

Was Hitler blue eyed?

Joseph P Popp's avatar

Was Hitler also a vegetarian 🥑?

Joseph P Popp's avatar

Thank you for that information.

Marlene Sweet's avatar

The only problem with this thought: he never reads, and most likely never did....

Steve's avatar

Maybe, Ivana would read him to sleep with it; sweet dreams, Donnie.

Larry Lathrop's avatar

Just saw something about Trump offering part or all of an Idaho airbase (I assume Mt Home) to the Qataris. Is that even possible?

Noreen Lassandrello's avatar

I don’t think people in Boise will be happy about that. And I am already seeing comments from Canadians against this idea. I hope this does NOT happen. Obviously Middle Eastern countries have a wonderful relationship with trump and his son-in-law. Which means they are making lots and lots of money. But why should our country be involved? No way, no how

Larry Lathrop's avatar

I just wonder how the White Nationalists in northern Idaho will take something like this?? Can't imagine they would approve. If they do, they are a lot more cowardly than I ever imagined.

Sally Sprague's avatar

So during the first week of shutdown when some are going without a paycheck or even a job, he’s golfing at tax payers expense. This is not his America, it’s the citizens, all colors and races. Work on health care and jobs. Please

Ian Robert Gunn's avatar

If Marine Corp 4 star General and former trump White House chief of staff John F Kelly says that trump is a fascist, then I believe him. No need to prevaricate.

Cindy Marshall's avatar

How would a civil war work? trump- Republicans wear red and the rest of us wear blue?!? I pray the blue -wearing Americans can figure out a way to come up with a united, forceful message that we're not going to allow this regime to overtake our democracy!🇺🇸

Adam, the Democrats actually listened to you and are now standing firm that the Republicans have the power and the Democrats are willing to work with them to reopen the government! Hopefully, you can send a plan to them how to stop trump's aggression?!?🙏🏻 God bless you and your leadership!

Jaysnana's avatar

How much longer must we coddle this heartless money-grubbing child and his minions? He & Steven Miller are killing our country. I’m sure my Republican ancestors are appalled to see their party taken over by criminals and clowns. I wish there was a way to get them to help!
