Summary

This morning, we’re turning the spotlight where it belongs. Remember all the chatter in D.C. about Biden’s cognitive state? Has anyone stopped to examine Trump’s? His rants have always been unhinged, but lately they’re reading less like a political speech and more like an escaped patient from the memory ward. Case in point: his bizarre remarks at the Kennedy Center, which were… something. And now, it’s not just embarrassing press clips. Trump’s erratic, reality-detached behavior may actually be having serious ripple effects on the economy. And if that’s not enough, he’s already deployed the National Guard in D.C. and is openly floating plans to do the same in other Democrat-led cities across the country. This isn’t about safety, it’s an authoritarian power play dressed up as “law and order.” The goal isn’t to protect people; it’s to control them. Let’s talk about what’s really going on.
