You speak a lot of truth. I don't have much of a voice these days (but still have my vote!) but I take your words to heart and am trying to help spread and support truth and common sense. I was very happy to see the headlines this morning, now we have to continue the work.

Thank you.

I will keep doing my best. As Muslims we then say “inshallah” … means God Willing.

That is my concern too.

To quote Macbeth :

"I am in blood / Stepp'd in so far that, should I wade no more, / Returning were as tedious as go o'er".

These people are too in the thick of it - they cannot undo or walk back what they have done.

This take is correct. Trump is the one who declares Maga jihad with veiled threats such as “and so it begins…” which stochastic terrorists mistake as commands. Inflammatory rhetoric is cited in their recent classifications of leftists as terrorists following the death of Charlie Kirk.

CORRECTING DRUMPF SOCIAL

Drumpf: “(I) wasn’t on the ballot, and shutdown, were the two reasons that Republicans lost elections tonight.”

Truth: His I-Am-King actions & his ‘let them eat cake’ shutdown were definitely on the ballot!

That said, we might lose the West Wing now. Or I.C.E. To more cities. Or war with Luxembourg! He’ll be acting out and his cruelty will again be on display!

I live all the way in Nevada. An older man heard me talking about Mamdani’s win. He came over and started spewing all kinds of Muslim hate. He told us that all Muslims are terrorist, and that were in terrible danger in the United States because of his election. I told him every Muslim I’ve ever met was a loving, kind, gentle human being that I would love to have as a neighbor. He like that very much. You are correct they have stirred people up who are filled with racist beliefs, and once they hear it from leadership, they believe it and they live it. I remember when Obama was running, and my mother was spewing all kinds of hate about him. It’s crazy to me how they believe the lies. If you spend five minutes, listening to either Mamdani or Obama You know that you’re listening to good man with integrity, But these peopleare deaf to the facts

Thank you for addressing this so directly Shaun. Many of us have been thinking along these lines, but your systematically and compassionately laying out the dangers and the positive actions that can be taken to keep this victory for the people safe and building is so important!

I know. The Empire going down is a dangerous beast. It calls upon all of us to reach out as community, as you are doing, and to stay strong in our courage and faith.

100% look at ICE, and the past history of CIA in Chile, Bolivia, Nicaragua and of course Palestine. The empire is falling, they're losing control they've been dictating for over a century! The likes of the Rothschild, Sackler etc., can only go one way.

It's going to get very messy and not just in NYC, Chicago etc.
