On Inauguration Day, President Joe Biden preemptively pardoned mass murderer Anthony Fauci as well as establishment criminals like Liz Cheney and Biden’s own family. Everything the establishment warned Trump would do, they themselves did... President Trump’s Inauguration speech signaled his intention to undo an era of blatant ugliness and nihilism, and I pray that America triumphs over the darkness.

Beautiful writing. We are the media now. The era of Mass Media propagandists shilling for their Deep State masters is over. Yet we must remain vigilant because they are now posing as "independents". Will be posting a deep dive on the Trump Derangement Substack slop merchants tomorrow...

Shane, I felt the anxiety through your words all the way to the end. I think, and this is just my opinion, that those of us who truly understand what took place over the last four years all have PTSD (a severe form of anxiety). The fear for President Trump’s life yesterday, the manipulation spawned through the media, and the level of gaslighting and minimizing— it was catastrophic. It sounds like you walked through a war zone as the last artillery sounds off, hoping the war is over. I’m with you; I hope it is, too.

Watching the inauguration live I was scared something bad would happen, thankfully it did not. Good to know the dread wasn’t in my head tho.

“Everything the establishment warned Trump would do, they themselves did” - exactly, that is the playbook of the left. It’s so obvious and still so many are deceived or blind to it. I am so angry about Fauci’s pardon. He is a master of lies and death - what does that sound like? Yep, Satan himself! Lots of continued prayers for the Trump administration moving forward and I am just so damn relived the border is finally closed.

Though you are a brilliant writer, I question why you were at such an event?… To be anywhere near anyone celebrating such a person as a pedophile, liar, racist, bigoted person who doesn’t even care about the earth is a shame. How come you spoke to none of this?… I’m a mother, and I pray that my child will have something of this earth left behind for him to enjoy!… let freedom ring, let there be peace!… And please let there be justice for someone who thinks it’s OK to disrespect people of other genders and races than his own, not to mention class… I just don’t understand why so many people have chosen this person to lead our country.

Pedophile, liar, racist. You’re clearly talking about former President Biden, correct? Don’t worry! His term is mercifully over!

Fear not! You are just misinformed

I totally agree. It’s creepy to see all these men celebrating a man who mocked a disabled person and boasted about grabbing a woman’s pussy. I could go on and on. And the lazy retort is “but what about Biden”…as if one cancels out the other

I am reading comments above about your “ master class” writing. In the real world this piece never would have made it through the 8th grade. You called Dr. Fauci a “ mass murderer” but you do nothing to source your “absolute” statement. Please reference substantiated studies that would indicate Dr. Fauci is indeed a “mass murderer.” At least 5 studies and properly peer reviewed with at least 10 references each. I could go on and on about your careless and reactionary emotional writing but I guess your goal is to insight more hate and conflict among your “Maget” readers.

There was a large study done recently and the outcome concluded the most miserable and depressed women voted blue. They are also on the highest levels of antidepressants - maybe try seeing things from a new lens and your mood will lift.

Can you reference that study or let me know where I can read it? I’d like to know the sample size, how it was conducted, etc. I’m white a liberal and do none of those things you mentioned from the study. Except for the outcome of the election, I’m a very happy person.
