TRUMP CHAOS WITH EVIL INTENT The Damage Report: Trump's Scheme EXPOSED By AOC As Government Chaos Spirals Out Of Control PLAY YOUTUBE VIDEO Original article: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=XEQoM9WeLyU Peter Burgess COMMENTARY I am a fan of AOC. In many ways, we have nothing in common ... but who cares? She makes a whole lot of sense, when most of the pepople engaged in politics do not. My understanding is that AOC did not 'have it easy' but had great parents who gave her excellent 'values'. In spite challenges, AOC got a good education and actually learned something and now is putting it to good use. I think she has made some good choices. One of these was working in support of Senator Bernie Sanders on his various campaigns ... an investment that I believe is paying off big time! Many mainstream politicians will not like AOC ... but I hope they will not get in her way. Mostly the mainstream politicians are hanging on to yesterday, while AOC is doing everything she can to enable Democrats to win now and into the future. The future can be amazing ... but not if everyone in mainstream politics ... and business ... is trying to hold on to the success of the past. The past is of huge interest ... for academic historians and to understand the present and the future ... but replicating the past is nonsense. As an old man 85 years old I have become fascinated by the amazing changes in almost everything that has taken place in the 60+ years of my adult life. What annoys me is that because we have a rather simplistic view of change, we are getting only a rather modest benefit from change / improvement than we could if more people understood what comprehensive socio-enviro-economic progress needs to look like. My guess is that progress could be many mulitples bettter than what we have achieved over the past several decades! Profits may be up and stock prices at record levels, but quality of life has not even flatlined but significantly degraded since the Reagan era in the 1980s! This is pathetic ... and a better management regime is long overdue! My hope is that a TrueValueMetrics initiative can help make this happen! Peter Burgess

'If you feel like you’re being crushed by the unbearable weight of the chaotic news cycle and all you want to do is curl into a little ball and fall into a four-year coma, Rep. Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez (D-N.Y.) wants you to know that it’s by design. On Tuesday, the New York lawmaker took to Instagram Live for a roughly 90-minute chat about the current state of the United States government, and how everyday people who disagree with President Donald Trump’s administration can fight back in “tangible” ways. “I want you all to understand that if you are watching the news right now and you are feeling overwhelmed by all of the constant headlines and developments and what is happening,” Ocasio-Cortez said at the beginning of her Instagram Live. “First of all, know that you are not alone. And second of all, know that that is exactly what this administration is trying to get you to feel.”' Be part of the Dragon Squad as a YouTube channel member: http://go.tyt.com/join-tdr Follow The Damage Report on Facebook: / thedamagereporttyt Help build the Home of the Progressives http://tyt.com/JOIN Subscribe to The Damage Report YouTube channel: https://www.youtube.com/thedamagerepo...

His Face When Support Nosedives by The Damage Report Marjorie Greene CRIES Over White House Press Briefing In Revealing Meltdown by The Damage Report JD Vance Goes OFF THE RAILS Over Alarming Trump Military Threat On Fox by The Damage Report Transcript 0:00 if you are watching the news right now and you are feel feeling overwhelmed by all of the constant headlines and developments and what is happening and um you know federal government changes over here and Ice raids over here and plane crashes over there and you are feeling so overwhelmed um first of all know that you are not alone um and second of all know that that is exactly what this Administration is trying to get you to feel yeah and AOC is 100% right there uh it's both fairly obvious I think that that's what they want us to feel it's also when you look at the things people in this Administration are saying it's their stated goal and uh they have a particular tactic that they've used you've probably noticed it but AOC 1:01 breaks it down in the second clip what authoritarian regimes try to do is that they often try to what is known as flood the Zone do so much at once or try to do so much at once that it gets carried in the news that you are that you feel overwhelmed and paralyzed and it's important for you to understand that the paralysis and shock that you feel right now is the point they are trying to induce a state of passivity among the general public and that is obviously from the very beginning that's one of the things we're trying to fight against and we're also trying to fight against kind of something that Steve Bannon makes clear so uh he said this the opposition party is the media and the media can only because they're dumb and they're lazy they can only focus on one thing at a time so if you pay attention to TDR you 2:02 know that we try to focus on as many things as possible so much so that many of us here working the show many of you might well lose our minds but we are trying to do that and he in particular says we have to flood the Zone he says it uh and that's what they're doing like if we could start with graphic 5 just think about the stuff they've done just in the last like three or four days they're saying the us is going to ethnically cleanse Gaza and turn it into like a massive hotel or something they put the entire USA staff on leave they are literally already shipping migrants to Guantanamo Bay they've banned transgender athletes from women's sports and I know what you're thinking all of these things will make groceries way more affordable and I'll grant you that but it's also a lot to process in a single week it's a lot and so I think everybody needs to both know that that's what they're trying to do I think that that makes it easier to resist but also have your little Outlets have things that help to sustain you I write my little fantasy and sci-fi stories I 3:00 watch WWE I play with my daughter these are the things that let me wake up each day and do it again because they want us to tap out with that so all the more reason we can't give it to them right what do you think about this how and also we need to say stuff over and over again like it's no coincidence that the people on the right are telling us the problem with what we're doing is the same thing over and over again saying the same message over and over again what do I mean by that they say things like you shouldn't overreact to every single story out there about Trump well if that's if that narrative takes hold that we're overreacting to everything that that Trump does and saying it's horrible that opens up the possibility and actually incentivizes Trump to do a bunch of bad stuff all at the same time all of which is horrible yeah because if the world believes that we're just overreacting to everything well he has no cause to like it's not that we're crying wolf it's just he's releasing a lot of damn wolves that's what's 4:01 happening and he's incentivized to do so if we if the media environment and all the social media play people out there and all of his growing fan base can convince us that it's all nonsense that we're saying even though it's real and the other thing is they're always like you guys are always calling us fashists well first of all all the stuff you're doing is like super fasy dude like it's super duper fasy you have a billionaire in charge of one of the biggest social media sites out there and certainly the fastest moving one and the one that a lot of people looked at to find out what was happening right now and what are the analyses out there and what do people I genuinely agree with say about it they've completely changed that they've got all of the media cow to to them bending the knee and all that stuff and meanwhile while they're telling us not to call people them fascists at every turn they call around and call us communist pedophiles and the difference is they're doing fasy stuff kamla Harris was not a 5:00 communist Marxist psychopath nor was she a pedophile but that doesn't stop them from saying the inaccurate thing so we need to repeat this stuff as much as possible and we need to convince the folks that are even remotely seen as neutral Arbiters of this that were actually right about that and I would argue like the Insight that I'm laying out might be more interesting fun compelling engaging annoying all the stuff that has a life on the internet then the crap that they're just doing over and over again that itself should get boring to the masses oh my God every time we call them a fascist for doing a hitlerian thing they call us Communists even though we're not doing anything remotely close to it I just think we need to have the discipline and not and not get down on it because the even though we might get bored with the messages that we say over and over again we feel like we're going crazy do what JN says go work on something outside of this but then come back to the fight and 6:00 repeat it over and over again because that's what they did they poured billions of dollars into a right-wing media and international social media ecosystem so that they can get a lot of the stuff we take for granted is just like H that's that's just how it is they did that by repeating it over and over again not by having better [Music] ideas when you click the join button and become a tier 2
