American Greatness is a Scam!!!. Content Warning.
"Make America Great Again...?" What do those words mean exactly? Every time I see those exact words I ask myself, "Who does that apply too exactly?" How does putting Donald Trump back in the White House make America great? Trump doesn't belong in any business or political office. He should be locked away in a prison cell. Or in a padded room with a straitjacket tied up so tightly that can't move a finger. The 2024 Election was one of the most historic events in American history. One where the right choice was easy and obvious. Kamala Harris would have been that choice. The right choice! But no... America made the choice... And it chose wrong!!! It chose a wannabe dictator who wants to destroy the American way of life.

Women's Work Hidden by Patriarchy and Capitalism: Honoring Historical Craftsmanship Contributions
We exist in a time when the gender pay gap is expanding. Recent studies indicate that women earn less than men, and the pandemic has exacerbated the pay gap in various nations. This disparity continues because there are fewer women in high-paying leadership roles and because women predominantly work in lower-paying industries. Yet, there are even more subtle and harsh reasons contributing to the gender pay gap. Historically, women’s work has been undervalued, resulting in unequal pay for comparable jobs between genders. Although this practice is gradually decreasing, it still exists.

That Midnight Hour
There is a foreboding sense that the world is fast approaching that midnight hour. The wrecking ball of the Trump Administration has put the United States on a direct path toward oblivion.

The Cult of MAGA . Content Warning.
When you hear the word cult, what do you think of first? For most, the word probably conjures up dark images of charismatic serial killers or clandestine rituals done in the dead of night. It's a misunderstood concept that mystifies and terrifies many, but why is this? People are fascinated by cults because of the psychological and sociological aspects that influence them. It's not an easy idea to define or understand, of course. Although some cults are easily understood as such, others are a little more subtle.

A Non-DEI Administration
January 28, 2025, the Defense Department Intelligence Agency (DIA) paused Special Emphasis Programs and related activities and events. What does that mean? It means they have stopped observances of Martin Luther King Jr. Day, Pride Month, Holocaust Days of Remembrance, Asian Pacific Islander, and other cultural or historical annual events due to Trump's ban on diversity, equity, and inclusion programs in the federal workplace. They ordered all Command, Elements, and Special Offices to cease and desist any celebrations, calling it a "pause." The Order also put a "pause" on all Affinity Groups, Agency Resource Groups, and Employee Networking Groups.

President Trump Signs Order to Send Migrants to Guantánamo Bay A Controversial Move in 2025.
President Trump Signs Order to Send Migrants to Guantánamo Bay A Controversial Move in 2025. In a move that has sparked widespread debate and condemnation former President Donald Trump now back in office has signed an executive order authorizing the transfer of certain migrants to the U.S naval base at Guantánamo Bay Cuba. The order announced on January 29/2025 marks a significant escalation in the Trump administration's immigration policies and reignites discussions about human rights national security and the rule of law. The executive order targets migrants who are deemed high risk or potential threats to national security. According to the Trump administration this includes individuals with suspected ties to criminal organizations terrorist groups or those who have been involved in violent activities. The order also applies to migrants who have entered the U.S illegally and are awaiting deportation proceedings. Guantánamo Bay long associated with the detention of terrorism suspects will now serve as a holding facility for these migrants. The administration argues that the base's remote location and existing infrastructure make it an ideal site for detaining individuals who pose a security risk. However critics argue that the move is a blatant violation of international law and human rights standards.
