Thank you for your hugely detailed report on how America will be indoctrinated by the new Trump administration … to destroy our true complex historic identity.
We New Yorkers have known Trump is a white supremacist for decades, but nobody asked us who he was during the 2016 campaign! The man who rode into the political world on a horse named “Barack Obama was not born in America“ is a threat to everyone he doesn’t see as being just like him. I cannot begin to express how disappointed I am that America’s legacy news organizations didn’t take it upon themselves to educate Americans about who he was back then … and failed to do so again in the run up to last year‘s election. Of course, Les Moonves of CBS famously said “Trump may be bad for America, but he is great for CBS News“. Profit one out over democracy in 2016 and one out over democracy in 2024. And that has not changed since the election was called for Trump.
Yep. That inherent conflict of interest concerns me, across the board. Nonetheless, we do have to stay informed, because information is potential power. Having said that, I've been frustrated by legacy media's failure to point out, and point again, at Trump's history of misogyny, racism, hucksterism and general moral depravity, as well as their tendency of sanewashing his remarks and ideas.
This is the best article highlighting gaslighting the truth of our history and the threat to control the minds of our children under the guise of Christianity. Stand up for “wokeness”. Intellectual freedom is about to be wiped out by power monger dolts with $.
Excellent piece. We need to wake up and see how the Republicans play the long game and that includes indoctrination of our white children through Christian nationalism education that’s made possible through these “School Choice” programs across the country. Wake up America… they are destroying the free education system and creating schools with radical agendas to continue this vicious cycle of hate, racism, nationalism, and misogyny.
The whole movement is deeply insidious, and it’s the work of people like you, Jeff, who help us see the totality of what’s happening—behind closed doors, as well as right in our faces.
Yesterday on social media, I was shown an ad for Hillsdale College’s “free course on the true meaning of the Constitution”. Ha! Might as well be from Tя☭mp University (now defunct). I reported it “for scam and fraud”.
First time I’ve seen this: Public elementary school in Orlando Fl electronic signage indicates Feb 6th is Ronald Reagan day. Patriotic education. Even Ronnie would be appalled by MAGA.
We fool ourselves if we believe patriotic manipulation is manifiested solely with Trump or this present time. A stronger essay would be to address current dangers, but leads citizens to explore more deeply.

As I intend to read this less skimmingly and more thoughtfully, I suspect so many new outrages will erupt tomorrow that will confound this effort.

Thanks for removing the paywalls.
Thank you, for giving voice, with specificity, to the seething tides within my head.
I can’t wait for your next installment.

Follow Lincoln’s example, not the Southern Lost Cause to skew history.
Thank you for all of the above. truly!
