The Good in Us

The courts will save us. How many times have we heard that? The courts will do the right thing and uphold and defend the Constitution of the United States of America. They will uphold the rule of law even against a regime that seems hellbent on dismantling both the rule of law and the constitutional order. And yet every single day we see evidence that the courts will not save us. In fact, the cour...

Going to start with a quote, a post on a certain person's failing social media platform. See if you can guess who wrote this grotesque piece of work:    “The museums throughout Washington but all over the country are essentially the last remaining segment of woke. The Smithsonian is out of control. Where everything discussed is how horrible our country is, how bad slavery was, and how Unac accompl...

Present by extension, the Republican party's incursion into voting rights and basically the American people's faith in free and fair elections continues apace. He took to his failing social media platform, I believe it was early this morning, and wrote a very long rant about mail-in voting. He is declaring war on mail-in voting. By the way, be afraid. But this is the thing I want to flag. I'll spa...

What are we losing sight of? What are we losing track of? So much going on constantly. It's all, quite frankly, alarming to one degree or another. But one thing we don't talk enough about is the extent to which the Trump regime has as one of its primary missions erasure. They don't just want to take away our rights. They don't just want to erode our sense of who we are as a people or our understan...

There’s so much going on and this is the troubling thing. It’s not a question of sifting out the important from the unimportant, the potentially devastating from the inconsequential. It’s a question of making sure we realize that most of what’s going on right now, by design, is important—potentially devastating to the future of our country. And while we focus on the most obvious, the most dramatic...

In a shocking turn, the New York Times published an opinion piece under the headline: “Is There a Smart Way to Cede Power to Donald Trump?” Let me repeat that. Is there a smart way to cede power to Donald Trump? Excuse me? Is there a smart way to destroy democracy? Is there a smart way to cave to fascists? Is there a smart way to convince people that concentration camps are fine? Seriously? The or...

Donald Trump claims to be a scratch golfer. When he was a child, he supposedly displayed such extraordinary musical talent that, had he pursued it, he could have become “the most brilliant musician in the history of everything.” He got into the University of Pennsylvania, we're told, entirely on his own merits. It had nothing to do with his older sister doing his homework, or the fact that someone...

I've been thinking a lot about resistance lately. What is it? Is it just one thing? Or does it depend on your circumstances, your position, or maybe even your attitude? The truth is, resistance is not a single concept—it’s multifaceted, and it absolutely depends on those factors. For elected officials, particularly those in the upper echelons of the U.S. government, resistance means opposing the o...

Let’s talk about credibility. Does someone convicted of sex trafficking minors have any? Imagine this scenario: a person serving a lengthy prison sentence for sex trafficking minors—who was also the accomplice and co-conspirator of the notorious rapist and sexual predator Jeffrey Epstein—suddenly offers up information to the Deputy Attorney General of the United States. That information, somehow,...

This afternoon, we finally got the confirmation many of us have long suspected: Donald Trump is in the Epstein files—and he’s known it for months. According to the Wall Street Journal , Donald’s name appears multiple times in documents tied to Jeffrey Epstein, as confirmed by senior administration officials who spoke to the paper. Attorney General Pam Bondi reportedly informed Donald of this durin...

The following transcript has been edited for readability and clarity: Donald Can’t Escape the Epstein Files — No Matter How Hard He Tries If you believe Donald, there’s absolutely nothing to the Epstein files. In fact, there may not even be files. Or if there are, it’s all the fault of Hillary Clinton, Barack Obama — excuse me, Barack Hussein Obama — and crooked Hillary Clinton. Yet he keeps doing...

A Government in Crisis—and a Virus That Won’t Quit While headlines remain dominated by the Jeffrey Epstein file debacle—a crisis wholly created and now perpetuated by Donald Trump—countless other urgent issues are being pushed out of the spotlight. That’s not to say the Epstein scandal isn’t newsworthy. It absolutely is. But the saturation coverage is obscuring other catastrophic developments unfo...

The High Cost of Incompetence: Floods, Racism, and a Regime in Collapse By Mary Trump I've been thinking a lot lately about professionalism, competence, and the simple concept of professional pride. Why do we choose to go to certain professionals? Why do we seek referrals for doctors, lawyers, or financial planners from people we trust? Because we want the most skilled, competent individuals helpi...

[Transcript edited for flow and clarity]Two things can be true at once. On the one hand, we can have good things happening, and on the other hand, even those good things may not be as good as they at first seem. So we know that Donald keeps losing in court—not all the time. We heard recently that a federal court, a three-judge panel, ruled that Donald was within his rights to federalize the Califo...

[Transcript edit for readability] Earlier, I was reading the news, as I often do, and I was trying to think of something I want to talk about tonight, and I honestly blanked. Because sometimes—you may be able to relate to this—sometimes it feels like the news is just bad, right? Now, I understand that corporate and traditional media are primed to give us only the bad news. And that's always been a...

[Transcript edited for flow and clarity]I don't know if you remember this, but when we were kids, we were told that our leaders should be people we could look up to and actually aspire to be, right? Don't get me wrong. In my lifetime, there haven't been that many presidents I've admired or looked up to, but that was the premise at least, right? Just for example, we were always told that anybody co...

[Transcript edited for clarity and flow.] Hello everybody, and welcome to this episode of Mary Trump Live. It is wonderful to have you with us. It really does look as if Donald Trump, because of a combination of ignorance, hubris, incompetence, and the fact that he's so easily manipulable, is pushing the United States closer to war with Iran, a situation that was not on anybody's radar two days ag...

[Transcript edited for flow and clarity.] One of the many reasons we're where we are right now at this point in American history is that for reasons that remain beyond my comprehension, everything always breaks Donald Trump's way. This has been true since the 1960s and it continues to be true. We've seen it in the context of his family. We've seen it in the context of banks continuing to bail him...
