Stay ConnectedAmerica, we gotta get back to doing what’s expected of us as free citizens in this democracy. That means being tolerant, being respectful, staying informed, and being engaged. I’m former Congressman Joe Walsh. Follow me here and join the millions of Americans who are renewing their social contract with each other. The social contract. It’s on us.

Trump lies almost every time he opens his mouth. And I stopped saying shame on Trump for lying a long time ago. Now I say shame on his supporters for allowing Trump to lie to them. Trump’s lying is on them, not him. And btw, We Americans will never get back a healthy democracy if we don’t demand a semblance of truth from the politicians who represent us.

Trump again yesterday blamed Ukraine for starting the war. Trump has made clear to the world that he stands with Putin & the world’s other dictators. He’s made clear that he does NOT stand with NATO & the free world. How horrible. And…how did Elon get so wealthy when he’s so damn ignorant? Maybe because he’s so damn dishonest. And…another oops from DOGE.

The U.S. and Russia met in Saudi Arabia today to discuss resolving Putin’s war against Ukraine. Ukraine wasn’t there. Yes, you read that right. Trump continues to do exactly what Putin wants him to do, and by this point nobody should wonder why. The answer is obvious. It’s always been obvious. Trump works for Putin because Putin has something on Trump. That’s always been the case.

Trump sent out his utterly un-American post again this morning: "He who saves his county does not violate any law." It's a statement, a belief, that cannot coexist with our Constitution, cannot coexist if we're a nation of laws. So Trump is forcing Americans to choose: Him or the rule of law. What say you America?

I sat down with Robert Weissman, President of Public Citizen (citizen.org) to discuss how citizens and the courts can best and most effectively stop what Musk and Trump are doing. We’ve never seen such a brazen, lawless convergence of concentrated corporate & government power. But we must fight back. Have a listen.

So the state department just agreed to buy $400 million worth of Tesla’s? Hello? Can you say conflict of interest? So the guy who is currently in charge of the federal government also has government contracts for all of his companies? Hello? Audit his companies? Transparency? Overt corruption and HUGE conflicts of interest. Right out in the open. Here’s the beauty: Do the people care?

If you actually listen to Trump and Musk every day - our military sucks, the deep state controls our justice dept and the FBI, there is no independent media, the federal government is all fraudsters and bad bureaucrats, even the judiciary is corrupt. According to Trump/Trumpism, America just sucks. But yet…he got elected saying all of this. And elections have consequences.

So many Trump supporters keep asking me every day - how come some judge can just overrule what a president wants to do? What’s the point of even having elections Joe? The point? The point is the Constitution. We’re either gonna have one and follow it, or we aren’t. It’s clear to me that that’s what MAGA wants, they just don’t have the balls to say it.

Trump and Vance made clear over the weekend that they're not happy the courts are holding up most of his executive actions. They've signaled that they'll ignore court rulings. If Trump can successfully do that, then we are no longer a democracy or a nation of laws. We must not let him.

I’m super pro Israel and I do not believe the two state solution is a possibility. So I sat down with someone who completely disagrees with me - Palestinian American political analyst Omar Baddar - to try to see if we could understand each other. And find a wee bit of common ground.
