I voted in Maryland, on the last day of early voting, and was not asked to show an ID. I signed something claiming I was the person I said I was and then requested a paper ballot, fed into a machine that counted it. I left with zero confidence in the “system.”
This will cause me to question the results on November 3, but even if the Democrats were to take the House and Senate in a legitimate manner, I would not be surprised. They are energized to vote for socialism, and some in the MAGA movement are divided over Trump’s policies, especially his support for Super Intelligence and data centers.
The basic truth is that simple-minded people want change, based on their trips to the gas station and the grocery store, and blame President Trump for high prices.
Many are stoked to resent the billionaires and their success while blaming them for their own lack of success. As a result, they want what the successful have. They want their property. It is theft motivated by jealousy.
It’s called socialism.
The so-called “grassroots” pushback against data center construction, led by socialists like Bernie Sanders and AOC, has been documented to be a Red Chinese intelligence operation. The pushback was determined to be a factor in the sharp sell-off in big tech stocks on Friday, October 30, 2026.
When markets become increasingly skeptical of the hundreds of billions being funneled into physical AI infrastructure, one must conclude that one factor has to be political. And if the socialists take Congress on November 3, the worst is yet to come, including a market crash, as noted by businessman Thomas Peterffy, a refugee from communism.
You can be sure that China is cheering the coalition of “progressives” with conservatives who have been brainwashed into believing technological change, of the kind promised by AI that could result in cancer cures, is something to be feared or stopped.
Some MAGA Trump supporters have already thrown in the towel, with one telling me, “China has already beat us in AI.” This person declared, “The AI centers are to increase the surveillance state.” It is a common complaint that you don’t hear in China as the communist regime moves forward with the technology and its military applications.
Unfortunately for Trump, he’s on the wrong side of several issues being considered today. He is perceived as a defender of the status quo.
It’s true: many conservatives did not get the change they wanted and expected, even though the case can be made that Trump inherited these problems and is trying to solve them, for the good of the nation.
In addition to the matter of Super Intelligence and data centers, consider:
- He vowed to end the Ukraine/Russia war. It’s still going.
- He promised to end the forever wars in the Middle East and started one, in concert with Israel, against Iran, which is still underway.
- He has failed to reform the Federal Reserve, and it is raising interest rates under its designated chairman, Kevin Warsh, causing affordable housing to get even more out of sight for young people.
The change, therefore, is moving in a socialist direction, thanks to the naivete of many so-called conservatives.
The “change” could have major ramifications.
In Michigan, as noted by former Obama strategist Steve Phillips, Abdul El-Sayed is campaigning to become the first Muslim elected to the U.S. Senate. He says, “Republicans have increasingly resorted to Islamophobic attacks and dog-whistle remarks about El-Sayed’s faith and loyalties. Trump has escalated these anti-Muslim attacks in the last several days in an attempt to undermine El-Sayed’s race.”
Of course, it’s not Islamophobia to note El-Sayed’s loyalties. I visited his campaign headquarters and the local Mosque, a base of his support, which featured a Time Magazine cover of the first Iranian Ayatollah and the quote “Iran on the march.” This is not something to be celebrated, and yet radical Muslims inside the United States are mobilizing, aided by the Democratic Socialists of America (DSA) and an assortment of communist groups.
This campaign, Phillips says, is one of the most important for the Democrats.
He says the “playbook” against el-Sayed “was lobbed against President Barack Obama, who faced similar efforts to portray him as foreign and un-American.” In fact, Republicans were cowardly in making an issue of Obama’s devotion to Islam and Marxism. GOP strategist Karl Rove warned Republicans not to call him a socialist.
Phillips notes an article from the leftist British Guardian was titled, “Obama rallies rapturous Michigan crowd for El-Sayed,” and quotes Obama as saying “He’ll finish the job we started.”
Meanwhile, the Jacobins running the magazine by the same name report:
“Members of the Democratic Socialists of America are thinking seriously about a national presidential campaign for Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez in 2028 that would reach millions of working people and have the potential to transform American politics.”
The Jacobins are named after the French revolutionaries who used the guillotine to kill their political opponents. They like AOC because she comes across as an energetic reformer who wants ordinary people to succeed in life and appeals to them through social media. In other words, she conceals their real agenda.
Since many states like Maryland don’t require voters to show photo identification at the polls, we are in a desperate situation, much like Brazil, where voting machines were used to steal a presidential victory away from Flavio Bolsonaro, a conservative who has since arrived in Miami. The “winner” through fraud was communist Luiz Inácio Lula da Silva, a member of the anti-American BRICS nations.
“Lula’s surprise victory is a beam of hope in a dark world,” declares Jacobin magazine. It notes that he was defeated by about two million votes on October 4, the first round of voting, but he then “gained more than ten million new votes on October 25,” the run-off, and “won” the election.
But this “surprise” was clearly fraud, generated by the intervention of a federal judge in Brazil who kept certain polling stations open for Lula. That is why Bolsonaro came to the United States, to escape the machinery of the communist dictatorship there. Lula wants him dead or in jail.
We face the same fate here. Where do we go with Trump’s base divided and directionless, and elections tainted by fraud? They blame Trump for not fixing the problems left to him by his predecessors and object to initiatives like AI that promise to Make America Great Again.
Unless Trump pulls another miracle out of his hat on November 3, get ready for another market crash and even more geopolitical catastrophes.
The forces behind the riots in France and Italy are already in America and are bracing for another upsurge.
We have no alternative but to prepare for self-defense.
One anarchist publication is noting that the British government has told its citizens to keep three days of supplies at home, while Japan is preparing to launch a new National Disaster Management Agency. Secretary of War Pete Hegseth has recently announced FORTRESS, a plan to get military bases ready for 90 days without outside power, water, fuel, or communications.
Meanwhile, Europe is bracing for more Russian military aggression.
One left-wing group, Extinction Rebellion U.S., is sponsoring a discussion of the new book, End Times Fascism and the Fight for the Living World, featuring authors Naomi Klein and Astra Taylor, to discuss “antifascist resistance” and the fight against the “AI oligarchs” and the “extreme right.” The people taking this book seriously are the foot soldiers of the global revolution on the streets of America.
In the U.S., these authors cite the success of Bernie Sanders, who emerged in 2020, “with an even larger block of voters behind him,” and nearly became the Democratic nominee for president, running as a “democratic socialist.”
In 2028, of course, with Trump on his way out, their great hope is AOC. They have reason to be optimistic.
