Politics does not dictate our collective cultural mindset as much as it simply reflects it; We've got to look in the mirror sometimes, and we've got one.
Disapproval from Within: Biden vs. Trump
A year ago, if one had inquired about the likeliness of President Biden being re-elected next year, the feedback and forecasts would have been swift, positive, and certain. Especially in contrast to his predecessor. Now...with a low approval rating, it appears his re-election bid will be an uphill battle.

Just when you thought the situation in Gaza couldn’t get any more sinister, who should pop back up on the radar but former British prime ministers and World Economic Forum (WEF) facilitators David Cameron and Tony Blair.

In times of trouble, you can always depend on a right-wing government to point their grubby fingers at society’s most vulnerable as the cause of all of society’s ills. The UK’s current Tory government is not much different. And finding themselves trailing in the polls, the conservatives have gone all-out in targeting the usual suspects: liberals, the impoverished, foreigners, and, of course, the so-called “work-shy”. The result has seen them try (and so far, fail) to illegally deport migrants to Rwanda, backtrack on environmental promises, and clamp down on various freedoms, including the right to protest. And now, hoping to appeal to their core base of voters, it seems they’re (once again) going after people with disabilities as well.

Like Rosalynn, my Nana was a woman of quick wit, sharp instinct, unflappability, and grace. My grandfather, like President Jimmy Carter, had the good sense to marry a woman more than his equal, as all men do.

In the ongoing quest for a fair and accountable government, the focus on term limits has primarily centered around elected positions. While limiting the tenure of elected officials is a step in the right direction, it's essential to cast a wider net and address the potential loophole—lifetime appointments through strategically positioned appointed positions. In this blog post, we delve into the critical need for term limits on appointed positions to truly curb corruption, foster diversity, and maintain a government that genuinely serves the people.
Dr. Byron DavisPublished 4 months ago in The SwampLook beyond the propaganda and demand the genocide stops
It must be so comforting for Israel’s despotic Likud leadership to know their globalist allies around the world are backing their Gaza genocide campaign to the hilt, pulling out all the stops to justify this fascist government’s repetition of the Nazi atrocities unleashed in WWII. Did the lessons of the Holocaust count for nothing?

In the rich embroidery of American official history, the string old enough has woven itself into the story, with Joe Biden remaining as both a record-holder and an image of perseverance. As he moves toward his 81st birthday, the conversation around his age lights banters about the convergence of years lived and the capacity to lead. How many presidents have attained such a milestone?How many future presidents will attain this achievement?

Peter RosePublished 4 months ago in The SwampA Victim of Ignorance and Greed
Most of my adult life, I have been a renter or a guest. As a child, I was not expected to contribute financially to my mother's rent or mortgage payments. However, after high school graduation, as an independent adult, I was expect to afford my own housing. That expectation is not unfair, but for over 30 years, I have witnessed and experienced many leases or contracts or rental agreements that have been unfair and according to American history, illegal.

Sometimes there are reasons to be proud to be British, sadly yesterday was not one of them... with the motion calling for an immediate ceasefire to Israel's genocidal ethnic cleansing of Gaza defeated by 293 votes to 125 in Parliament.
Steve HarrisonPublished 4 months ago in The SwampThe Poisoned Mastermind
Leyi Johnson was a brilliant mind, a master of mathematics and politics. He ruled the chessboard of Nobi, making his moves in the shadows, confident in his power. But 33 years ago, he was trapped in a deadly plot, a game he did not know he was playing. His enemies had rigged the chessboard, and he was a pawn in their hands. His academic excellence, his strategic genius, his pragmatic skills, all became useless against the dark forces that schemed against him. He was outsmarted, outplayed, and outlived by the very game he thought he had conquered. The chessboard, his domain, became his doom, and Leyi was checkmated by the hidden hands that moved the pieces.
