Master List: Authoritarian and Anti-Constitutional Actions by Donald Trump (2025)

I will be sleeping outside on Christmas Eve 2022 in solidarity with homeless pregnant women
I wanted to remind you that I will be spending Christmas Eve sleeping in a tent at the corner of West Market and Portage Path in Akron Ohio from 6pm to 6am in solidarity with homeless pregnant women. People have slept out with me before. I really wish you wouldn’t. It’s not safe. And it…

The Meaning of Life
I’ve come to believe that all of this is just a physical construct for a spiritual journey. A possible reality is that you are the only conscious being in the entire universe and everything and everyone else is just a fantasy you have created. Whether that is true or not doesn’t matter. There is only…

A Demon From Hell
As soon as I said my name it was like she realized she was looking at a demon for the 7th level of hell. She exclaimed, “No!” She quickly shut and locked the door. I’ve had some people not appreciate my presence on their doorstep as I knock on what is now over 1000 voters’…

I AM SO PROUD OF YOU.
Last night city council ignored the people and voted to force a half-baked, high-priced rental complex down the throats of citizens who have fought so systematically and respectfully to at least slow down the process. I’ve been there. We had hundreds of people come in support of the tent village we were running on my…

Savannah
When they say Love Conquers All, this is what they mean right here. A couple years ago on some cold winter day I got a call from a 14 year old girl. She heard I knew her dad. So she reached out to me. I knew where he was. I went down to the Adams…

What I’ve Learned About Democrats
In my campaign to try to be the next Ward 8 Council leader I have been to over 1000 Democratic voters so far. (Some I’ve gotten to speak to and some I’ve just dropped off literature.) It has been such a wonderful opportunity to get to talk to all these people. I’ve learned some things…

Hopelessness
I don’t typically write these kinds of posts simply because throwing myself a pity party is not really my style. “Suck it up, buttercup” is how I live my life. But I guess there might be some worth in recording that I feel this way from time to time. There was a city-wide camp sweep…

Homeless People Are Hated Like Jews Are Hated.
I have debated if the work I’m doing is similar to the Underground Railroad in Slave America or Jewish rescuers in Nazi Germany. The biggest disconnect between slaves and homeless people is that slaves were not being eradicated. They were property that slave holders wanted returned. Nazi extermination only wanted one thing: to wipe Jews…

“PLEASE SAGE! MAKE FUN OF COPS AGAIN.”
“PLEASE SAGE! MAKE FUN OF COPS AGAIN.” A Communist friend of mine recently asked me to get back to the energy where I viscously, brutally and vulgarly verbally attacked racist and murdering cops. So, instead, I thought it would be more fun to attack his sacred cow: COMMUNISM. (Everyone loves when I attack their enemies.…

Thank You For Passing Issue 10, Akron Ohio

SHOULD SOME THINGS NOT BE SAID?
We are having a pretty intense conversation in my family right now about topics that maybe are better left unsaid. In this case I had mentioned that maybe my son and his cousin (a girl) should get together. Everyone was mortified. (I will admit that I do love a provocative conversation. A good shock to…
