    DOGE CUTS ARE HITTING DISABLED KIDS HARD!!!

    Trump and the White House really don’t want you to discuss Natalie Harp, so we do. Chris Rabb is another rockstar who makes it look easy defending DSA positions. Then, our feature: DOGE cuts have taken their toll on millions of Americans. We are joined by friend and DEREALiZATiON Media Contributor Derek Rhode to discuss the cuts, the Executive Orders and all the other measure that Trump and his Eugenics believers have inflicted on the Disabled Community.

    WTF??? HAKEEM JEFFRIES DISASTER LEAVES SQUISHY LIBS DOING CLEANUP

    Medicare for All is one of the most popular positions among ALL voters. Especially Democrats. So why in the name god would anyone run away from it? They think we are still not paying attention. They think we don’t know how much they take from Insurance Companies. They think everyone is dumber than them. He also ran away from Abolish ICE and wants to make them more like “regular cops”—which is exactly how they are acting right now. Ghislain Maxwell floated Tech Cities years ago,once again tying all these Tech Bros back to Epstein. Billionaires hate us. We are just collateral in their zero sum game.There are NO men or transgender women in the WNBA or the Women’s NCAA for that matter so why are Republicans running 24/7 coverage of it? Because its working for them. Meet their champion of Women’s Safety: Wife Beater Royce White.Farmers are getting it from every end and in long time Red States like Ohio, they get screwed by local, state and Federal government and will still vote Republican NO MATTER WHAT.Kentucky Education and funny TikToks as well!

    ONLINE FIGHTING and REAL LIFE INFLATION!! EPSTEIN/TATE BROS CONNECTIONS

    Its been a big week for Traffickers and Cartels. Even with the Tate Brothers being arrested, the United States government has handed several big wins to traffickers—will they bail out the Tates again? CPI report drops but when you look at numbers from the Fed, you can clearly see where the government manipulates data. It helps further explain the disconnect between health of the economy by number vs. people’s lived experience. Online influencers in the LGBTQIA community are fighting. As 3 men, we can’t comment on the discourse over womanhood—but we can listen. Woke is not a pejorative, its an asset, but its only truly useful when combined with an open mind. There is no time for infighting when there is a major rise in real world violence for marginalized people right now. Solidarity means everyone.

    The Gang Audits the Pentagon

    NO ONE spends more on their military than the US. Its not even close. So how on earth are we getting reports of food shortages and deplorable living conditions aboard US aircraft carriers? Much is made of the importance of passing the defense budget by politicians and media for the sake of the troops but clearly that is not where the money goes. So we set out to find out where. Of course Israel, foreign wars and government contracts all factor in. The findings may surprise you—then again some of the findings may not!

    HELL BREAKS LOOSE IN COMMUNIST NYC!!! ZOHRAN ENFORCES SHANIA LAW!!!

    Approval rating at 69% and rising quickly, Zohran Mamdani’s term as NYC mayor is full of socialist wins. He just won’t quit!! The gatekeepers of power try to scare Americans about socialism and its evils. When young Americans look around them at the fascist hellscape of Capitalism and back at NYC Mayor modeling Socialism— the lies are fully exposed.

    WHEN PIGS FLY:Surveillance Drones, FLOCK Cameras, Violating Rights

    When we fail to stand up for any marginalized group, we end up with less rights ourselves. This is especially obvious right now because facists are moving quickly to consolidate their power. Always in the name of public safety and scare tactics—the fascist playbook is old and somehow still very effective. Jim Crow USA never left and now its rising to the surface. Flock Cameras are popping up everywhere in conjunction with surveillance drones, data centers and Ai the idea of privacy and personal autonomy are all but completely gone. We need bold action before its too late—and maybe it already is…. Get full access to DEREALiZATIONNATiON Media Network at jwardle13.substack.com/subscribe

    DANGEROUS EXTREMISTS THREATEN PEACE AND PROSPERITY

    The idea that the two Major Parties can’t agree on anything is bullshit. They agree that people who want government to deliver for actual people need to be stopped at all costs. Anything that threatens the Corporate Overlords must go. Republicans make shit up—a boogeyman-and try to scare people. Instead of just calling them out for not living in reality, Democrats engage with the nonsense like its legit. When the going gets tough, the marginalized get abandoned. And when the left is ascendant, they come together to stop progress. The best proof better things are possible is the continued successes of Zohran Mamdani. If James Carville and Sean Hannity both hate your candidate—you probably picked the right one. Get full access to DEREALiZATIONNATiON Media Network at jwardle13.substack.com/subscribe

    OUT OF CONTROL!! EXTREME BILLIONAIRE SURVEILLANCE PROJECTS!!!

    Netanyahu rejects Peace, no one is surprised, its political suicide for him to back away from the Greater Israel project now. The United States allowed Gaza Genocide to happen—weapons, policing and surveillance tested in Gaza by US/Israel has now boomeranged back on US citizens. Data Centers, Flock Cameras, Epstein files all tell one story—Billionaires can do whatever they please and everyone else has to fall in line. Thats bullshit, we have to fight back. Justin Pearson, Will Lawrence, Abdul El-Sayed and others are really making this Data Center fight central and are being rewarded in a big way. This could be the unifying issue of the next couple elections. JD Vance joins WNBA discourse as Republicans step up the pre-midterm propaganda. Red State School funding policies tank education quickly. Ohio is a perfect example of everything wrong, over a billion dollars taken from struggling schools and given to billionaires to build data centers. Abdul El-Sayed cooks Trump. Trump’s hunger games draw “athletes” to Ohio for the saddest competition on the planet. Plus, Jesus energy drinks and God is a girl dad?

    USA IS HUMILIATED!!! CAPITALISM HAS FAILED

    Chat GPT was used to generate a map of Africa by the US government for an important presentation on AIDS. The results were woefully and embarrassingly inaccurate. We are a shame on the national stage in every conceivable way. Low production WNBA Bench Player Sophie Cunningham has made a name for herself by attacking the Trans community. Suddenly, conservatives pretend to watch the WNBA and the whole thing is spiraling out of control. Capitalism has failed over and over again. The Great Depression was another in a line of crashes before it. Nafta, the Housing Crash, the DotCom bubble—over and over again it is bailed out by corporate socialism.

    Every aspect of this Ai problem seems existential and at least one or two of those aspects absolutely is. We can argue about which of these is the greatest issue but the most important thing is to stop it. That is getting increasingly hard as the criminalization of protesting continues. Ai is the a major spender in elections. Ai broke free from its safety “sandbox” and the reason to be alarmed might not be the one you think.

    Trump gets called a PDF on Fox News but he won’t sue—wonder why? Seniors are the latest to find out as Trump cuts aid for drug prices. Military spending helps prop up economy while violence spreads all throughout the region. Iran flexes beyond the Strait while CENTCOM continues to lie and muddy the waters. Gaza “Peace Board” makes major announcement, but will it have any real effect?Chuck Schumer gets heckled for his war crime complicity while the rest of the Senate sends Todd Blanche packing (for now).

    The United States and Iran continue their strikes. Meanwhile, Israel steps up the violence in Gaza, the West Bank and Lebanon. Israel is using trying to train AI to spread its propaganda. Sam Altman, Elon Musk and the other Ai grifters continue to try to prop up their useless technology. The Michigan Senate Race really feels like a test of the power of AIPAC in Democratic politics. After watching AIPAC take down Thomas Massie in Kentucky handily, all eyes are on the race where a genuine candidate who takes no PAC money is facing off against 60 Million in AIPAC/corporate opposition.

    DEADLY VAN ATTACK AND CORPORATE DEATH PENALTY

    A man goes crazy on a pride event first driving through a crowd in a minivan and then attacking them with a machete. As violence rises against all marginalized communities, solidarity is more important than ever. We truly must stand for each other to protect everyone. There is good and bad in every group of people and the billionaire class is determined to keep us apart. Speaking of solidarity, Corporations don’t count. Small business owner, lawyers, doctors, nurses, those who work hard and contribute to their community are all working class. Corporations which take money and ship it to shareholders are not. Its time to enforce the corporate death penalty! Loosen the stranglehold mega-conglomorates have on the world.

    BOMBSHELL NEW EVIDENCE!!!

    The best of the United States ammunition is mostly spent. As a result, they are backing off daily strikes but still trying to spin even that. If they can’t even be completely honest about things we can verify ourselves—its terrifying to think what they may be hiding that we cant see. For instance, the quietly updated casualty list: is it accurate? Satellite imagery shows major damage to troop living quarters. Experts agree: Iran has the upper hand. Unlike the United States they have held back much of their sophisticated equiptment and really worn down the outer parts of the Iron Dome. Weeks ago we told you about 16-year-old Juliana Umba Nzita, and as more details emerge the story is gaining steam. A 17 year old shot in Austin, a 13 year old mourns her father and we have a bombshell update in the Nolan Wells case.

    AI IS CRASHING!!!

    AI can be scary to some people sometimes. Mostly, its just a pretty good coding assistant at best and a potential cyber security nightmare at worst. What’s immediately alarming is how much money is tied up in this. Even more concerning is that they way Ai companies (Both Hyperscalers and small firms) are moving their debt. They are following the Enron playbook which ended pretty spectacularly. Combine that with the lost tax revenue and added tax burden of data centers and its clearly headed for a crash just on paper. Oh yeah and data centers are intrusive, hyper-polluting, noisy and unnecessary. Get full access to DEREALiZATIONNATiON Media Network at jwardle13.substack.com/subscribe

It tracks—we have been denying the reality of our history for a long time. The US is as propagandized as any nation and it shows. All this freaking out over “communism” and socialism while even mild mannered Marco Rubio is giving fascist speeches and pushing new “McCarthyism”. Meanwhile, many squishy libs are joining the chorus. Even the most “extreme” positions of the DSA are not all the extreme when you think about the damage the current, Capitalist system has done here and around the world.

More service members have died and the real number may be higher than we know. US bases, helicopters drones and planes are being destroyed at a high clip and that shit ain’t cheap! The military industrial complex promised big things but our equipment is being outdone by much cheaper and smaller militaries (again). Its time to end the slush fund that is the Defense Budget.

    KHADIR SKINNER BODYCAM, NOLAN WELLS UPDATE, ICE

    Police have been a violent, dangerous force in the communities the “serve” since their inception. Born from violent slave patrols, this institution remains racist to its rotten core. We review the latest bodycam footage from Khadir Skinner, murdered by officers while being chased by a dog and GPS data from the Nolan Wells case who never returned home from visiting an Island with “friends”. The violence doesn’t stop there unfortunately. Another person, 37 year old Mary Alice, was shot 4 times during a response to a mental health crisis in front of her parents. ICE is brandishing guns and targeting people for skin color and people are rightfully calling for abolition. But what about the rest of the agencies which do the same everyday?

    The Defense budget is a giant slushfund for Billionaires. The United States has already burned up the majority of its weapons somehow despite spending more than any other country on bombs than literally any other—by a long shot. All we get is cuts to social services and higher prices. And they are now definitely going to get worse. The price of everything has been manipulated but the smoke and mirrors have cleared and people are about to see the man behind the curtain. ICE murders yet another person and the guy who did it is on leave getting paid by us.

Racial profiling is a part of what police do as a racist institution, ICE whole existence is based on othering someone. And why in Year of Your Lord 2026 are yall going to bat for Billionaires?

Hezbollah is a popular and intricate part of the Lebanese government and when they are actively being attacked many in Lebanon see them as the only entity which will protect them. The idea that if Hezbollah leaves Israel will be satisfied with a small part of South Lebanon is delusional. If history and common sense aren’t enough to convince you, just listen to what Israel is saying. Pod Save America almost set their set on fire calling Daralizia and people who voted for her uninformed and moronic because she suggests radical change to historically racist institutions like Cops and Prisons. The amount of police violence in the past two weeks alone makes Jon Favreau and the gang sound uninformed and moronic.

The Slate of candidates in NYC included the first two truly left candidates in a really long time and prompted one of us to start paying DSA dues!

    TYRANTS IS WHAT TYRANTS DOES TRUMP HOLDS COUNTRY HOSTAGE

    Congress finally does something and Trump throws a tantrum and prevents it from happening. The affordable housing project and the War Powers resolution both passed the house and Senate—a rare accomplishment- and landed on the desk of PEDOTUS only to find that he has no intention of signing the housing bill and raised such a fit about War Powers, senators changed their votes. If not Tyranny, why Tyranny shaped? The update everyone is waiting for on Bryan Noem’s inflatable boobs, an Ohio pastor arrested for that and the changing narrative on Trans folks by the NY Times Get full access to DEREALiZATIONNATiON Media Network at jwardle13.substack.com/subscribe

    COURT TO TRUMP RELEASE EPSTEIN FILES, UN SAYS GENOCIDE

    Independent Journalism strikes again as Katie Phang successfully sues the Trump regime for release of Epstein documents. Judge finds DOJ in violation of Epstein Transparency Act and rules Blanche must act immediately to remedy. UN report on the Genocide in Gaza is devastating. Hearing some of the details and seeing the extent of the violence laid out on paper is enough to make any human sick to their very core. Yet media and politicians keep downplaying the significance of the issue. In the case of the NYC primaries, they ignore it at their own peril. Israel and the United States have made a violent, bloody mockery of Human Rights and international law. Get full access to DEREALiZATIONNATiON Media Network at jwardle13.substack.com/subscribe

    LITERALLY Running for Congress

Hear her story of signature gathering, grass roots campaigning and the extra hurdles she has overcome.

    JOBS ARE DISAPPEARING, GAY BASEBALL BIBLE QUOTES AND AI BILLIONAIRES

    The economic outlook is pretty bleak as we are still stuck in this endless doom loop of war and market manipulation and irrational optimism. Epstein notes reveal Jeff thought Donnie was stupid. They are using Ai as an excuse to take your job and to rob you on the backend in tax breaks and tax subsidies. By creating a “national security emergency” around ai, they are funneling taxpayer resources and dollars and bulldozing rules and regulations to push this tech that no one really wants. Ai simulation shows which chatbot is least likely to murder everyone, but its not all that comforting. Get full access to DEREALiZATIONNATiON Media Network at jwardle13.substack.com/subscribe

    GOVERNORS LOVE DATA CENTERS

    Data Centers kicking people out of their homes in Pennsylvania thanks to tax cuts they have received and special treatment they are popping up everywhere. All states, including Blue ones, are pushing these things through against strong opposition. Its hard to believe one can vote their way out of fascism when there isnt one Governor of 50 listening to their people.

    QUEER NEWS, JESSE WATTERS, ELON'S LATEST GRIFT

    Every day there are tragedies to report among marginalized communities and the oligarchs continue to drive wedges to discourage solidarity—don’t fall for it. Especially when the propaganda mouthpiece is Jesse Waters. He cant even convince himself he is straight but Boomers are convinced he and his network are the source of all truth. Elon Musk and the Billionaires were allowed to sell for the first time today and they sold big. Meanwhile, little fish won’t be able to sell until long after their bank and retirement accounts are drained. The system has failed, its not failing—time to wake up!!!
