    IMPEACH HIM NOW!!! CONGRESS EXPOSED!!!

    Keira is a veteran who, motivated by the clear illegality of DOGE and ICE early in the administration, decided to take the case for impeachment from the people to Congress. She helped to found Citizen’s Impeachment a grassroots organization that refuses to stop demanding accountability and action. She was met with cold indifference and open hostility by members of both parties and their staffers. Despite this, the organization continues to grow with thousands of people taking daily action to encourage politicians to ACTUALLY hold this entire administration— accountable including the President. Early on, it became clear that enmeshed members on both sides had no interest in upholding their Oath of Duty to the Constitution so a pivot was made. Citizen’s Impeachment hit the campaign trail with their pledge for candidates to introduce articles of impeachment upon election to Congress. 25 of those Candidates have advanced to the primaries. Major Jason Watson, the Air Force Veteran arrested on the steps of the Capitol in full uniform calling for Trump’s impeachment is a part of this movement. Keira talks about the day, the arrest, his current solitary detention and finally an upcoming visit with him after a long fight. Full of colorful stories from the fight to get Congress to do their job, don’t miss this vibrant discussion of all the highs and lows of fighting to finally, really hold the powerful to account.

    AI BUBBLE IS GOING TO BURST!!

    There is a lot of stuff floating around out there about what is happening in Yemen. We sort through what is true and false about the Houthis, Saudi Arabia, UAE, Yemen and the region. Turns out, the Genocide in Palestine and Lebanon is extremely important to the people of the region even if their leaders are willing to work with the perpetrators. Israel ramps up violence again this weekend with impunity and there is a rising star in Israeli politics and its not better than Bibi. Ai companies are suddenly begging for regulation and to say the timing is suspicious is a wild understatement. We look for the truth from two Ai Experts who really put in the work and research to sort through the b******t and figure out the difference between LLMs and earth shaking technology. Flock cameras are watching our every move but it turns out they hate to be watched. Is there even a constitution if we continue to surrender right after right? There is no application of the law equally. Sydney Sweeney strikes again, but its not so much the ad as what it represents and hyporcisy of the right. Not to mention the real, material dangers of betting apps grooming kids, especially young men. Patriotism or nah? All three friends share three seperate perspectives of patriotism and its effects and if there is anything worth salvaging about this place?

    USING YOUR MONEY FOR BRIBES, KEEPING LGBTQIA FOLKS SAFE

    Trump’s SEC has made it legal to bribe politicians. In fact, its practically mandatory. Another big win for the cancer that is private equity. Sentencing and Justice finally comes for a Black Trans man lured to a home and stabbed to death. Teenager faces stalking charges for threatening a gay classmate and other LGBTQIA news. Plus, “normal” gays and Terfs—are they making life worse for the rest of the community? What do they hope to gain by it?

    MAMDANI DOES 9/11 NETANYAHU KNEW!!!

    If you think Hasan Piker is controversial and Black Pepper is spicy, just skip this episode. First, the war in Iran escalates in ways that are changing the world order. The Balance of Power is shifting and its too soon to say where it will land. One thing is certain the US is no longer the main character. Squishy Liberals found out today that Benjamin Netanyahu knew about 10/7 in advance. It has been known by the left for literally years now but a report in an Israeli Newspaper has added new details and put the pro-Israel “progressives” in a tight spot. We talk about that and all the other horrifying details they still haven’t acknowledged. Speaking of unacknowledged, horrifying details we take a look back at the lies of 25 years of 9/11. Jon Stewart and Zoharan Mamdani did some of the most meaningful work, revealing the depth of the coverup of the environmental impact, while the Right spends entire news cycles blaming the whole thing on him, Hasan, Abdul el-Sayed and any other Muslim of note they can find.

    MODERN DAY SLAVERY!

    All prisons use slave labor. In Oklahoma, they are being farmed out to make phone calls for political candidates. Not just phone calls, but deceptive ones. But the phone call is not the main issue—the slave labor is! People get so hysterical so quickly when DSA type people talk about “Abolish the Carceral System” that we almost never get to have a real conversation about why it needs to be abolished and the short answer is slavery. Prisons in the South are especially heinous. We already know the racial imbalance within the system. People don’t want to be bothered with the ills of society so they lock away its victims instead. Another GOP candidate caught in scandal advances in their primary. Trump Donors outpace the Stock Market. Sports have become almost comically corrupt and a microcosm of all the ills of our economic system. Get full access to DEREALiZATIONNATiON Media Network at jwardle13.substack.com/subscribe

    CAUGHT IN LIES!!!

    It’s all part of the plan—but not really. The White House, Pentagon and Centcom LOVE to project confidence, but it rarely warranted. Right now its definitely not. Iran has begun to try to beat back the blockade, putting more troops at risk. The two bozos in charge of peace all over the world are in Russia kissing ass and its not getting better there either. Speaking of getting worse, Israel’s conquest of Lebanon and Palestine continues completely unimpeded and is moving into Syria and having knock on effects in Yemen and elsewhere. Whether you believe Ai is dangerous or not, the fact remains that it is being controlled and sold by some of the silliest, most incompetent and evil little men. Sam Altman vs an Almond, Ai “breakouts” and “break throughs” its intentionally hard to navigate true from false but one thing we can all agree on is that this wealthy idiots need reigned in and many of them prosecuted.

    ICE VICTIMS, WEALTH GAP AND TRANS GENOCIDE

    Pierre Dumas Bel was a promising young man who wanted to help others by becoming a neuro surgeon. Instead, Trump’s immigration policies got him killed. This community was specifically targeted during the campaign, so MAGA you actually voted for the policy that caused his death—directly responsibly and clearly forewarned. The economic situation is dire. The macro indicators like the bond market are finally catching up to the reality we all feel on the ground. Life really is more expensive and its about to get worse—on purpose. The Trans genocide is officially declared by Trump, but it has already been happening for quite some time. The evidence is there, making Trump’s statement even more terrifying for the Trans community. Get full access to DEREALiZATIONNATiON Media Network at jwardle13.substack.com/subscribe
