There is no Doubt, on This Day, April 13, 2025, I Can Confirm that Democracy is Dead in the United States

Putin, Trump, and Musk won: democracy is nothing but a memory today. America is now a fascist country under the control of Fuhrer Trump, and his master, Vladimir Putin. Trump’s Nazi Army has defeated the most powerful military force on the planet.

If you read the three attached articles, and are witnessing the fact that our corrupt and cowardly military leaders are doing nothing to end Trump’s unconstitutional actions, they did nothing on January 6, and you know I’m right but don’t want to admit it. The truth is unconscionable and it is your fault if you voted for a traitor last November.

I’m going to tell you something you won’t like, but it is an undeniable fact. If you were born after 1960, you have no idea what America was like before you were born. My generation, original baby boomers, has been criticized and made fun of by the idiots on late night television and stand-up comics for years. What you don’t know is that we grew up extremely patriotic and proud of the nation we were fortunate enough to be a part of.

What you don’t know is that we fell for a huge lie. It is known as “the American dream.” In the mid 1960’s we learned that most of everything we believed in was a lie. We were drafted into a war halfway around the world and were never given a legitimate reason for sacrificing our nation’s young men and women in a war with no relationship to national security.

Every war declared by America’s incompetent and corrupt government since WWII has been illegal and immoral. Of equal importance, if you look at the facts, our military, the largest and most expensive on the planet, has lost every conflict, and should be embarrassed for their failures. However, if you served in the military, you know that the higher the rank a man possesses makes him more arrogant and self-righteous.

This has been happening since the end of WWII, but I was too young and too brainwashed to see the truth. Ptriotism was everywhere post WWII. The truth in 2025 is that no one, and I mean no one with power over your future can be trusted, Our nation’s leaders, and this includes religious leaders, have little or no interest in you or those you love. Our public servants have become Nazi rulers.

I know this sounds extreme, but this is a fact and only a small percentage of those I referred to are an exception.

This situation began with the election of Ronald Reagan in 1980, and has escalated over the last 45 years. Fascism has been lying in wait for a time when most of our nation’s people were brainwashed and uninformed.

“Nothing in the world is more dangerous than sincere ignorance and conscientious stupidity.” Martin Luther King Jr.

Men with great power are far more likely to seek even greater power than men whose ambitions involve the welfare of others. Fascism offers men an opportunity to have absolute power over other men.

When Reagan took office in 1981, his first act was to inform his party that there would no longer be open dissent, free thought, or opposing opinions within his federal government. Next, he declared war on the working class, giving more control over our nation’s future to the rich and powerful.

Although Trump has been more obvious about his intentions, he had something Reagan did not: multiple organizations who support his fascist agenda throughout the nation, brainwashing ignorant and like-minded voters with lies and the always successful fear tactic. These groups fictitiously call themselves, Fox News, Newsmax, and other misleading names.

The only fact that matters is how Trump became your president.

Although approximately 40 percent of all voters supporting Trump’s anti-American agenda, he would not have been victorious in 2016 or 2024 without assistance from his handler, Vladimir Putin. Although they deny the irrefutable fact, all of our elected officials were aware of Putin’s interference but hid the fact from the voting public until after the election.

It doesn’t require a genius IQ to look closely at our current government and see the resemblance between America and Russia in 2025. After Trump won another rigged election, he began the destruction of agencies designed to prevent fascism from replacing our democratic government. Trump began to take revenge on real Americans who opposed his plans to burn the Constitution and replace it with the right-wing’s fascist manifesto, “Project 2025.”

Trump is already talking about a third term. This could only happen if the Constitution were amended, or destroyed, and our government and military surrender to the plutocracy, allowing fascism to rule over our nation for many years into the future.

The corrupt and biased Supreme Court is to blame for Trump’s current reign of terror. Six members, John Roberts, Clarence Thomas, Samuel Alito, Neil Gorsuch, Brett Kavanaugh, and Amy Coney Barrett, are traitors to the intent of our Founding Fathers. These six cowards and right-wing extremists gave Trump powers not intended for the executive branch. They ignored section three of the 14^th Amendment which clearly prevented Trump from running for any office in 2024.

The only question that matters: “can our nation be saved?”

I am usually a positive man. However, I am pessimistic today. The government of the United States has become the most corrupt and incompetent in the world. With the Supreme Court aligned with Trump’s American Fascist Party, who will save the dream?

If I were a religious man, I would do what religious people do: pray. However, the fact that evil controls the world’s future today, how can I believe in a God?
