This is terrifying! Ever since the horrendous outcome of this election, I feel like I am living in an alternate universe and I know it is only going to get worse once he is actually in office. Definitely sticking to independent writers and podcasters like you, Meidas Touch Network, Brian Tyler Cohen etc. Just praying that as we all join forces that something substantial can be done to stop this maniac and his minions. It is absolutely horrifying thinking what might happen to our country if we don't unite and stand against him.

Thanks, man. Thanks for outlining what to look for, keeping eyes and ears open. I appreciate you and what you're doing Keith 💙

You speak truth to power. One must educate themselves on fascism and how authoritarian regimes take power. You must be aware of the other Countries that have fallen victim so you see the blaring red flags as it plays out here in America. I have been watching and listening to see who will see the truth and emerge as leaders. You are one of them, Keith. You understand that those who continue to talk about rules, laws and norms are not getting it. Authoritarian regimes BREAK all of those while the politicians, mainstream media and citizens ramble on about them. That is how they take power.

We cannot rely on Congress or the judiciary to protect. It is up to the people and those who will continue to speak truth and keep their heads out of the sand when others choose to do so.

The first book recommendation is On Tyranny. I read it in 2017 and again the week after the election. I refer to it continually. I am happy to see that you keep this one close as well. Another good read that I am in the middle of: How Fascism Works by Jason Stanley.

Be ready. It is going to happen faster than what most think. (Let’s hope we are wrong, but I am not holding my breath.)

NO to Drumpf and MAGAtv. I’ve discontinued MSM. I follow independent writers and podcasts.

Thanks Keith. I will not comply, not in advance or ever! Authoritarian governments are the weakest at the beginning and at the end. I will never believe that Trump won legitimately. There were way too many issues with the election. Why burn ballots boxes and have Russia call in bomb threats? Why were so many MAGA republicans able to challenge millions of ballots in swing states? Why not follow up and do recounts in swing states where people only voted for Trump in rural areas and nothing else? How did Elon know the results of the election four hours before anyone else? Why did we keep democratic Senators in all but one of the swing states? In North Carolina, where they didn’t have any senators up for reelection, they voted for an entirely democratic state executive government. Yet somehow Trump won all of the swing states? If any of these things happened to Trump he would have demanded recounts across the board.

I am also angry that our leaders have done nothing. Biden should’ve never run for a second term. He was always too old and a poor communicator. He left a vacuum that Trump filled. Biden has been acting like this was normal for the last four years. He has been slow to respond and hasn’t communicated the reason behind any crisis that we have faced. His DOJ was weak and dragged their feet. The Supreme should have been expanded. Why is no one stepping up to represent us? That’s what we elected them to do. They by no means have a mandate in the house or the senate. Trump didn’t even win 50% of popular vote. This is the time where real leaders need to come forward. This was not a normal election. We need our elected officials to stop acting like it was.

I too have a feeling about T being elected, but not just this time...both. Knowing how he tried alternate electors before, I trust his thugs figured something out this time. I worry how we will survive. Thank you for speaking out.

The Republicans in all swing States purged their voter rolls throughout 2021 to 2024. They even broke the law by purging voters 90 days before an election and was allowed to do it! They've been planning this legal coup for 4 years. I agree with you! This election was not normal 😐

Agreed. Our mainstream corporate media is failing us. The big 'news'/ entertainment companies are owned by too few wealthy people, and they NOT properly reporting on the many Election irregularities.

They should be interviewing the election security experts who - left and right - are pointing to evidence that the (pro-Trump) vote count numbers do NOT make sense.

Yes, even MSNBC has changed its tone and content since Trump has claimed victory.

Its owner Comcast is heartless, and its richer shareholders are surely wanting the massive deregulation and tax avoidance offered through the GOP's Project 2025.

CBS is owned by Skydance, whose Republican billionaire owner is David Ellison. ABC & CNN also have wealthy Republicans at the top.

Another factor in their silence is likely Trump's threat to pull the FCC licenses of media org's "guilty" of criticizing him.

We must get more vocal.

📣 🗳️ This Election is NOT yet certified, and we should be encouraging Harris to petition for audits and recounts in the swing states ASAP. These experts should need to be heard!

I love your comment! Unfortunately I can’t open the hyperlink.

Glad you agree. The link is to the website of a respected nonprofit group called 'Free Speech for People', and their article (of 13 Nov.) discusses the work of 8 top experts in election security & computer science, calling on the Harris campaign to look into highly the suspicious vote counts which have been reported. The name of their article is "Computer Scientists: Breaches of Voting System Software Warrant Recounts to Ensure Election Verification".

tRump is making them grovel across a sea of glass I’m sure. I find it sad that they did this. I believed what they said. I guess corporate media has been covering their butts. It didn’t look like they were overjoyed having to say those vile spew. Maybe they see what’s coming with the upcoming 4 years of hell

This POV is a case study on why we lost the last election. They didn’t bow or bend a knee and if you don’t think defiance can be characterized by strategic nuanced, you should read more history books.

I will not comply, either. Together with my fellow countrymen, we support and defend our Constitution against all enemies foreign and domestic. Domestic would be trump maga.

They are also assisting in their own demise.

Good points BUT have Mika & Joe changed on air and pulled back on their editorialism like Bezos and the rest?
