PREFACE: (Or ''Mission Statement'' as they say nowadays)...

PREFACE ADDENDUM- 1-5-26 -
You will notice a slight change in format for 2026. I have had several suggestions to switch to a dark font on a light background in order to make the site more easily readable. Therefore, as of 2026, although I personally prefer a light font on a dark background, I have followed those suggestions herewith and made the change to dark on light. Thank you!

PREFACE ADDENDUM- 5-8-25 - I have, as of May 8th, 2025 (the anniversary of my last major heart attack and resulting stent placement) decided to ADD to this, already LENGTHY, preface. I do so because I feel I need to call attention to something very important about this effort and, just perhaps, others like mine....but ESPECIALLY mine since I can only speak for myself. Here is the point- it is MOST important not to take things out of context! One can always find a line or two (or three or four etc.) within any essay or article that rings differently outside of the QUALIFIERS of the entire context! Remember that. It is MOST important. This is one of the reasons that I have this PREFACE at the top of the page ... it is meant to be read as the foundation for what comes next. While I realize it is asking a lot of new readers, I would also appreciate you reading my early efforts since, they too, lay a further foundation for what comes along in all the later editions. That is really the ONLY way you will understand my evolving perspective and not see each post as an entity unto itself.

I realized that when I, later on, added the catch phrase in the opening regarding ''Deprogramming the MAGA Cultists'', I was becoming much more provocative than I had been previously and that it would likely raise the ire of some of those Trump supporters who did not consider themselves to be cultists or even MAGA extremists. But, I did it intentionally, at the time, for a bit of ''shock value'' (for lack of better terms) I suppose in the hope that it might just cause some deep introspection for those few Trump followers, who are otherwise seemingly reasonable, caring people, who STILL, after ALL THIS TIME AND TRAGEDY, continue go along relatively unscathed by the result we are now dealing with as a nation. HOWEVER, as for reasons that will be further explained here, I have decided to REMOVE that particular phrase from the heading since I do NOT want to have someone turn away from this site at a glance simply because they might get the impression that MAGA STEREOTYPING is what I am all about! In fact STEREOTYPING is, and always has been, one of my PET PEEVES!

But, truthfully, ''IN CONTEXT'' is why it is most important to read this ENTIRE endeavor, if interested, since it not only chronicles much of the evolution as to how I, personally, evolved in my thinking over my lifetime based on wiser insights developed over the years, but it also lays out the evidence regarding this current destructive situation in America in a way that, hopefully, will allow others to more quickly ''evolve'' in the way they perceive things than I did. I am afraid we do not have a ''lifetime'' of evolving left if we are to have enough aware, caring individuals to literally SAVE our American institutions, our government, our values and our FREEDOMS! This does NOT mean to imply that we do not need CONSTRUCTIVE change in our government and our politics on both sides of the aisle. Is there waste in government that needs addressing? Most definitely, always has been and, unfortunately, always will be to some extent no matter who is in charge. But we can always work to improve it in SANE , orderly ways WITHIN the system and within the law. You don't have to, to use a tired worn phrase, ''throw the baby out with the bath water'' in order to address this waste.

But back to the point of context. Do I think that ALL Trump voters should be categorized as ''cultists''? NO and I have NEVER said or implied that. I have said that I have spent far too many hours pondering and wondering HOW ANY reasonable person could still support what is happening to this country NOW under this regime and, like so many others who care, try to determine the reasons for it. One that I have covered ''ad nauseam'' is propaganda and I still believe that this is the main reason. But, some of the feedback I have gotten from ''Trumpist converts'', which I cherish by the way since their ''conversion'' is part of what makes my humble efforts feel worthwhile, has caused me to see and consider other reasons.

Many of these people are very much like myself in my younger days. They are simply too involved with their own day to day lives to really pay much attention to ''daily politics'' (which can become ''weekly'', ''monthly'' and so on). Maybe they were also a bit cynical like I was in my early days, feeling that nothing was going to make much difference anyway and that the same old ''politics as usual'' would continue no matter who was ''in power''. Then, on top of that, they have ALWAYS voted Republican because they had always identified with what they had always been told were the supposed, core values and ideology of the Republican party... they just couldn't quite bring themselves to vote Democrat no matter what.

I could go on and on trying to find reasons and justifications for them but, at some point, THEY HAVE TO OWN IT! They have to seriously, open-mindedly WAKE UP and see the true reality. As of this writing, there is currently a FASCIST operating in the White House and an authoritarian regime HAS taken over our country in the most vile way possible! This is NOT overstatement, this is NOT hyperbole, this is FACT. I lay out, in orderly chronology throughout these web pages, INDISPUTABLE EVIDENCE for that if you make the effort to read it (as do many, many others out there far more qualified than I)! It has NEVER BEEN MORE IMPORTANT for every TRUE AMERICAN PATRIOT to get past prior ''political leanings'' and realize that this is NOT politics as usual here. It doesn't matter what kind of party label these thugs have hijacked and slapped on themselves EVERYONE HAS TO SEE THEM for what they truly are ... AUTHORITARIAN FASCISTS.

So, what it comes down to is this. If you STILL condone all of this, at this point in time, then SOMETHING is badly amiss somewhere, somehow. Does this mean you are a ''cultist''? I don't know. That's what many qualified observers have concluded. Why not consider the definition of ''cultist'' and do your own honest introspection. (CULTIST DEFINITION- A cultist is a follower of a group exhibiting extreme devotion to a person, idea, or object. Cultists are often characterized by their unquestioning loyalty and dedication to a leader or belief system. ) As the old saying goes...''if the shoe fits wear it''! OR... does it mean you are a basically good, but still naive person? I don't know. Does it mean that you are still somehow just not paying attention at all ? I don't know. Does it mean you don't really care one way or another? I sure hope not but I don't know.

In worst case, can it mean that you actually indentify with this crowd and WANT to live under, and be a part of, an Authoritarian regime? This is becoming more and more likely than many of us can fathom I am afraid. If that truly is you, then you and I have a REAL problem! My Father fought and risked his life in every major European battle of World War II from Normandy to Bastogne (5 major battle stars to prove it) to fight FASCISM! That is one of the many reasons I feel obligated to continue this fight for him now! I will NEVER stand by and watch our country taken over by fascists without speaking out against it with all I have in me. It's that simple! I invite, and URGE EVERYONE, WHATEVER your ''political persuasion'', to unite and to stand with all of us AGAINST this facists takeover!

I live in one of the most ''red'' states in the country, South Carolina. Here, I guess I am now considered one of a few ''blue islands'' in a ''red stream'' although I assure you that I owe NO ALLEGIANCE to ANY political party! My neighbors, friends and family are, with some NOTABLE exceptions (you know who you are!), lifelong GOP supporters. They are, mostly, some of the best, most loyal, kindest, UNSELFISH people in the world when it comes to helping each other. But, if they have a serious fault, it's that many of them have a stubborn, blind, UNSHAKEABLE allegiance to the Republican Party no matter WHO/WHEN/WHAT! Do I consider them all ''cultists'', or even extreme MAGAs? NO, not at all! But, I have to say that this ''blind allegiance'' characteristic is what I have a hard time understanding or having any patience with in THIS particular time! As I keep on, and keep on, saying...these are NOT normal times....this is NOT NORMAL POLITICS! It does NOT excuse or allow for ''NORMAL'' viewpoints to override the blatant TRUTH and THREAT that has been unfolding before our eyes since January 20th! THIS, my friends, is the whole point of this little website of mine ... to KEEP pointing this very sad state of affairs out in honest, documented fashion, to the best of my limited ability, to anyone who WANTS TO take the time to listen!


ADDENDUM ( March 2025)- Since these single pages tend to grow significantly with each added post, it was decided that a new page will be started with each new quarter to minimize lengthy scrolling and with a smaller index links list. They will be labelled by year and quarter (Example-2025-1, 2025-2, etc. through 4.). Each archived quarter/year can/will be reaccessed from the index in the current home page.

A little, out front, about the author of this webpage and it's purpose. I am Hayne Davis, a lifelong media professional in all aspects from the creative side (writing, producing for radio, TV and film, commercial advertising, radio programming and consulting etc.) to the technical side (audio engineering and electronics design). I helped build one commercial radio station (WIXE, Monroe, NC-1968) and completely built another (WNMX-''MIX106'' FM, Newberry, SC-1988). Through my business, MCP DaviSound, I wrote, produced and consulted for over 1200 broadcast stations worldwide. Often, these associations required me to originate and write editorials for broadcast. So, I suppose I will always be an ''old editorialist'' at heart.

As many who read these pages may find ironic, if you read of my ''political evolution'' elsewhere herein, most of my early, young adult editorials often took a most conservative stance in those days! It basically evolved something like- politically critical altogether, to more traditional ''liberal critical'', to finally more traditional ''conservative critical'. Now it is simply critical of the right wing EXTREMISTS trying to turn our country into a full blown autocracy! I like to think that I, myself, did not ''evolve'' so much as did the political and social environments around me which shaped the shifts in my views over the years. I think we need more of that ability, for all people to recognize, that you should NOT be glued to a ''party'' or ''ideology'' just for the sake of it no matter how much it changes or what kind of demagogue takes it over!

2025 is the year of my 77th birthday so I have definitely been alive on the planet long enough, lived through and experienced enough, to offer some, hopefully valuable, insights regarding the current situations we find ourselves in. Over the past four years (as of 2025) I have endured THREE heart attacks (one major), two heart catheterizations, one stent placement, and triple by-pass open heart surgery. I currently still operate my audio engineering company, DaviSound on a limited basis and each month I post a monthly News Updates page from my website there.

In recent months, based on all the chaos happening with our government and our democracy, I just could not help but use that forum to comment on what I saw happening to my beloved country since it affected me greatly (and should affect ALL of us!) in every aspect of my life including my work. I never intended for the DaviSound News Updates page to evolve into the direction of ''politics'' or commentary on any other topics besides audio and electronic media. So, with that in mind, and at the encouragement of some family, friends, and even some recent inquirors, I decided to create this site dedicated solely to those topics while keeping them completely OUT of the DaviSound News Updates! Thus, here we are now ...on the new DaviSoapBox!

The format of this page will be presented, very much like the DaviSound News Updates page just mentioned. Each new post will be dated and placed at the top of the page just above the prior post. All posts will be indexed so that they may be accessed individually from the top of the page or the entire page of prior posts may, of course, be scrolled. There will be no regular posting schedule since I expect to present them as time permits and/or as occasion may necessitate...most likely on a weekly basis or thereabout but no regular schedule. I ask that you please bookmark this page and please share it with anyone you feel may be interested. It would also be MOST helpful to share it with friends who ''need it'' if you know what I mean (those well meaning friends, and family, we all have who ''keep on drinking the MAGA cult Kool Aid''!). As one of my readers once pointed out- Those who really NEED to read and consider what you are saying will never even see it!

Several of the aquaintances, who I just mentioned suggested that I start this new endeavor, also recommended that I do a PODCAST. That would certainly seem to be a ''natural'' for me given my broadcast and audio background. I may just, possibly, include that, at least from time to time, in the future and it would be called ''DaviSoundOff'. However, recording audio and uploading it is very time consuming and I do not need to have my, already limited, work time much further disrupted. Therefore, I may just stick to the written word, for the most part anyway. Besides, I feel that too many ''Podcasts'', to use the old adage, ''just go in one ear and out the other'' whereas the written word gives one time to ponder, reference and easily access and share.

At the beginning, to initiate things here, I will be including some of my most recent past posts from my DaviSound News Updates page to get things started so that you will ''know where I'm coming from'' as they say.

I also feel the need to emphasize here, in this prelude, that it is important, more important nowadays than EVER, to be able to differentiate between political propaganda and honest commentary. I WILL be offering the latter! I hope that ANYONE who happens upon my writings here will have the common sense to distinguish between the two! Nowadays, if you criticize one side of the political spectrum you are automatically aligned with the other. This itself is one of my MAIN PET PEAVES! I will be largely criticising the FAR RIGHT side of the political spectrum simply because they are the ones that have EARNED the criticism by their actions. Recognizing and pointing out the obvious does NOT make me simply ''one of them'' (meaning the OTHER side). That's much of the whole problem - one ''side'' versus the other ''side''. My agenda will be on the side of FACT and TRUTH! If the facts and the TRUTH go against one ''side'' or the other than so be it. This does NOT necessarily relegate me to the ''left'' side of the spectrum just because the currently disgusting TRUTH about the ''right'' side deserves to be told! But, when I see the ''left'' screwing up (and they DO), I will be honestly pointing that out as well!

Truthfully, this is NOT about right versus left or, really, not about political platforms or even ideology. Things have become MUCH more serious than that now in this country! We are motivated by urgent concern for our way of life and our way of government as a whole- NOT by some political party agenda! And, too, my concerns for our grandchildren and the environment they will inherit, as well as the future of the planet as a whole, are no less a concern. Renewable energy is a LONG TIME passion of mine and the ONLY logical salvation of mankind's future! Therefore, we MUST fight to promote and protect the move towards renewable energy also!

As most of my readers know, I am MOST against HYPOCRISY, double standards and the distortion of facts to suit one's ''side''. Unfortuntely, today one does not have to look far to see that this is a CONSTANT method of operation for those on the right side of the political spectrum. So, that being the case, they will be the ones having THEIR hypocrisies and lies, of their OWN MAKING, called out! Alec Baldwin in his satirical portrayal of Donald Trump on Saturday Night Live once gave one of the funniest, but simultaneously MOST ACCURATE, lines of any of his performances. In a mock press conference he was asked, ''Mr. President, why is it that you hate all the media besides Fox News?" His answer was, "Because you report on all the things I say and all the things that I do!" That simple line was BRILLIANT, and kudos to whoever wrote it, because it says so much in so few words! The honest networks simply show the buffoon being himself! Unfortunately, Fox News did not/does not simply report on, or show video of, Donald Trump, or his chronies, as they really are. That network was designed STRICTLY as a propaganda machine and, as obvious as it may be to all but the gullible, unfortunately there are too many gullible viewers in America today.

That outfit alone, along with a few little copycat wannabes, has done more to destroy America than any other single entity over the past several decades! It is what they were designed for and, unfortunately, they do it fairly well. President Obama once famously said, ''If all I did was watch Fox News for my news source, I wouldn't like me either!". That being the case, this forum will undoubtedly be calling out Fox News, it's tabloid styled hosts and it's millions of ''brainwashed'' viewers quite often! They also had much to do with me increasingly distancing myself from the ''political right'' over the years since I, along with any other reasonable person, easily saw through them as being as believable as a televised fake wrestling match. My wife and I spend FAR too much of our time pondering and lamenting the fact that so many well meaning, otherwise honest Americans now align themselves with a movement so OBVIOUSLY WRONG and DANGEROUSLY opposed to fact and truth as well as right over wrong! America is now, so sadly, becoming very much like Nazi Germany in the late '30s with much of it's citizenry following behind a glorified, self-serving, imbecile-bully narcissist, with his oligarch chronies, and there is no doubt that Fox News has much to do with that!

In wrapping up this prelude, let me point out that this site is totally INDEPENDENT! It is my OWN PERSONAL endeavor and any and ALL views presented here are my own. I am not beholding to ANY advertiser, corporation, political entity etc etc or anyone else WHATEVER! You will NOT find any data hogging scripts, No PopUps, NO COOKIES, first, second or third party or otherwise! I will NOT be mining and selling your data! You will find this site/page instantly loading with NOTHING running in the background! I type all of my content myself in Windows notepad text editor and use the good old fashioned hyper text markup language- HTML. I try to proofread but, since my text editor has no spellcheck, please expect and overlook typos from time to time!

Finally (for this preface that is), let me point out that I do this largely to try and help maintain my own sanity in what I see as INSANE times! I know that if it were not for a few encouragers who I hear from occasionally, and without the likes of (fellow South Carolinian) Stephen Colbert and Jimmy Kimmel (I watch the former live and the latter afterwards on YouTube-daily! ED NOTE 2026 - Unfortunately, as of May 2026 due to the capitulation of the, now regime empowered, CBS network, we will be deprived of Stephen Colbert's late show- at least on that sinking platform ) I would never have survived the first Trump administration let alone another one! When you have overwhelmingly deep concerns about what you observe going on day in and day out, it just helps to get things off your chest, so to speak, and to at least TRY to make a positive difference by keeping FACT and TRUTH at the forefront and DOCUMENTING IT in some way...Thus- my ''DaviSoundOff''' with 'DaviSoapBox''! Thank you so much for joining me here and I hope you will let me hear from you!

''DaviStrategist'' ? ...

Well it happened. And because of it, I am as ''DaviSickened'' by the Democrats right now as I am with the Republicans (well ... almost).

Today as I write this section, on the 9th, six days ahead of publication, I have just learned that the candidate, Graham Platner, whom I was so excited about when I learned of his campaign a couple of months ago, has now, because of pressure from the ''big-time'' Democratic ''strategists'', DROPPED OUT of the Maine senate race! Now, this is a BIG deal!

It's big for many reasons. First of all, it is BIG because we have lost a refreshing new and bold entry into a very broken political system all because OF that very broken political system . It is BIG because the very reason he dropped out, is one of the main reasons he was running ... because he had many valid and logical ideas on how to FIX THE BROKEN SYSTEM. Of course, the system doesn't particularly want that. Even his own party saw fit to ''crucify him''.

It is also BIG since it proves that the Democratic party still hasn't learned anything from its past mistakes and the idiocy in their immediate rise against one of their best candidates to come along in many years, simply because of a calculated smear campaign by the right which everyone knew was coming, further proves their ''old guard'' leadership at the top continues to be the Democratic Party's biggest log in their own quagmire.

I have to say that I am also disgusted with Mr. Platner, himself. I truly never thought he would bow to the pressure. I realize that, at some point, one must draw the line as to how much they are willing to put their family through to endure today's dirty politics, especially when that dirt is thrown at them by todays professional dirt slingers, the Republican ''DIRT SPECIALISTS''.

But, he had already publicly admitted that he had enjoyed a very active sex life in years past (so that's a disqualifier?) and that he had some regrets because of it early on in his marriage (which he and his wife had worked through and which should be enough for any outside critics to keep their collective mouths shut!). He also admitted that, after two tours of active combat duty he had come back with some emotional problems early on when he returned home, including over-indulgence in alcohol from time to time.

He had stated that part of his motivation to run for office was to show how people can work through a personal crisis and come out changed for the better. He also fully and openly answered every criticism continually hurled at him by the Republican operatives during his early run for the Senate. Unlike his Republican counterparts, he did NOT avoid, deny and project, blaming others, in the style of his accusers. No. He stood and looked them in the face and admitted his mistakes when the accusations were just, and called them lies and distortions when they were, indeed, lies and distortions (typically orchestrated and carried out by Republican ''startegists'' and their trained ''operatives''). So, YES, I am very, very disappointed in Mr. Platner that he allowed the ''dirt deluge'' that he knew was being dug up and piled up for him, bury him so quickly! Somehow he let the establishment he was trying so hard to change, sweep him out of the way and under the pile before he had really gotten started.

It is also BIG because ALLEGATIONS and ACCUSATIONS should never be, but these days typically are, treated with the same weight as convictions whether one is remotely guilty or not. This is one of the more sickening aspects of our modern society. It doesn't take much to discredit someone these days ... just put some BS out on the Internet about them and, right away, the vigilante lynch mobs are out in force! That is, unless you are a reality show styled Republican ... then you can be a convicted felon, a genuine sexual predator and rapist and, not only be defended by your supporters, but also even be elected as their President Of The United States! How CRAZY and how HYPOCRITICAL is that? I guess that double standard is just the true norm in today's dumbed down world ruled by ignorance and ''Idiocracy''!

In Platner's case, while I certainly do NOT know all the facts ... I have read and heard enough to get a pretty good idea of what's going on here. Maybe I am the naive ''fool'' in this case but I believe this man when he says what he says. This guy didn't lay it all on the line to come out and run against hypocrites by being one himself! If he says the accusations are a lie then I would rather believe his word than that of a disgruntled girlfriend from many years back who is, apparently, still holding a grudge about the break-up ... or, perhaps this ''grudge'' was simply renewed by one of the operatives who ''worked on her'' and coaxed her out into the attention arena.

The OBVIOUS question is this ... why now?
If she had been ''technically raped'' as she suggested, then why did she wait until years later when POLITICS became involved before she said anything? Ask yourself that question and ponder your answer for awhile! And, just perhaps, this accuser should ask herself, if indeed my assumptions about her being ''worked on'' by the Republican operatives are correct, then just who is ''assaulting her'' now at this juncture and how does she justify not accusing them of another form of ''moral assault''?

I also blame the mainstream media for their tabloid style sensationalism over this. Even the so-called ''liberal'' New York Times recently had a female reporter go out ''digging'' for more dirt on Platner looking up ALL of his past girlfriends. She apparently plodded and coaxed any faint memory they might conjure up of Platner being, how should we say ... ''too un-gentlemanly'' ... with them. To her ''surprise'' (and likely disappointment) most of them reported just the opposite saying he was mostly a ''true gentleman''. THAT did NOT make the headlines, however!

In my view, Platner's biggest flaw was simply allowing himself too many ill-chosen ''girlfriends''! But, indeed, that was in the PAST and he DID admit his past mistakes... and he DID learn from them ... and he DID correct them! Isn't that what a responsible human being is supposed to be doing? Is there any more that could be asked of him in that regard? You certainly don't hear ANY Republican politicians admitting ANY mistakes let alone correcting any ... no ... they just ignore them, deny them, or blame somebody else!

But, yes, I am VERY disappointed in Mr. Platner for giving in to the establishment and dropping out. He says that his quitting was not an admission of guilt. Well it will certainly look that way and will definitely be spun that way by the ''state media''! In his concession announcement Platner blames ''a political system not built for normal people''. Then I say, THAT IS your reason NOT to quit and NOT the reason TO quit! You definitely disappoint me in that end, Mr. Platner!

And just what do these ''genius'' Democratic Party ''STRATEGISTS'' have to say about it? They say it is likely for a "more experienced candidate who is free from scandal to campaign on key issues Platner addressed even if they are not as far to the left as he is''. There you have the key phrases, ladies and gentlemen- a ''more experienced candidate'' and ''not as far to the left''. This tells you all you need to know about today's establishment leaders of the Democratic Party! They're one of the very reasons that even an ill-charactered joke, disgraceful human being and career criminal can defeat them at the polls!

When this latest accusation initially broke, Platner's campaign released a statement calling the allegations "coached and coordinated by out of state establishment operatives. For a year, opponents of this campaign have thrown everything they can at Graham - calling him a Nazi, a war criminal, and a communist. None of it has been true and this is no different. It is not a coincidence that this story comes a week before the ballot deadline, just as the previous false allegations came a week before the primary. Graham began this campaign to fight for a Maine where everyone is treated with dignity and where Mainers are put first, and no amount of desperate smears will stop this movement from seeing that vision through," the statement said. I had hoped that statement was correct. But, most unfortunately, it DID stop the movement.

So, as I have said at the outset, my disgust this edition, at this current point, is with the Democratic party! All they have to hear is an "alleged accusation" and right away they are ready to abandon and persecute one of the best candidates to run on their ticket in a long time. ALL you had to do to know this was to listen to any of Platner's sincere, passionate speeches and press interviews. As pointed out, the crooked, but shrewd, operatives on the right know this ''cave-in'' trait of the Democrats and so they have been after Graham Platner the entire time with one smear tactic after another just waiting for their piled-up wall of dirt to collapse. So in the end it did. No matter that the current Felon-In-Chief in the White House on their opposing side is a convicted rapist, lifelong abuser of women and girls and a career criminal, all it takes is an obvious, orchestrated, questionable accusation for the Democrats to want to take down one of their own in spite of a vehement denial and nothing else besides ''she said/he said'' possible ''evidence''.

When you do the honest research, you learn that these women accusers are either long-term Republican operatives or have been reached out to and prodded by those who are.

Of course this is not in any way to be misconstrued as any kind of defense of actual sexual assault but only to rightly condemn exaggerations by, and/or manipulations of, former girlfriends for either attention, for revenge over a bitter breakup and, with timing like this, certainly for political gain. You can bet on it! The ones they go after hardest are the ones they are most afraid of ...the best ones! I emphasize once again that you must ask yourself ...
if this accusation is not politically motivated, then why is it only being revealed during a political campaign? Why now and not when it allegedly happened?

The Democratic party elite say their urgings for Platner to withdraw were because they want to be known for their "transparency". Well being transparent with your stupidity doesn't make you any less stupid! ... Just like the FELON-In-Chief's out-in-the-open ''transparency'' in his crimes doesn't make him any less criminal!




And now for more of the news you will never see/hear on the ''state media'', FOX NEWS ...

Who's paying for the IMPeror's vanity projects in Washington? Well, according to the New York Times investigations, the government’s "finance wizards have revised and re-revised", and in some cases re-re-revised, their cost estimates. It’s all about as clear as the algae-clouded water in the Lincoln Memorial Reflecting Pool.

FROM THE NEW YORK TIMES -

With no public accounting of the entire construction spree, a team of Times reporters — Luke Broadwater, Marco Hernandez, Junho Lee and Elena Shao — set out to produce one. They found that the Trump administration had mobilized at least $1.2 billion on no fewer than 18 major projects across the nation’s capital. Here’s everything we know, and everything we don’t, about their budgetary provenance

Wing ballroom: $400 million from private donors, or maybe taxpayers. Since Trump razed the East Wing in October to build a 90,000-square-foot ballroom, the costs have piled up. Initially, the government said the project would run $200 million; now, its price tag has doubled. Trump first said that money would come from donors, but officials refused to disclose how much each donor had actually contributed, and Republicans on Capitol Hill have offered up taxpayer money instead.

Security center: $400 million from taxpayers. The president asked Senate Republicans to approve payment for security enhancements, including a “massive” military bunker beneath his planned ballroom. That money was later cut out of a spending bill, but the Trump administration has since transferred more than $350 million from the Secret Service budget to pay for some of the upgrades.

The finances get even hazier for other ventures on Pennsylvania Avenue. Trump has renovated the Lincoln Bedroom, the Palm Room, the Oval Office and more, but he has not disclosed costs.

Kennedy Center: $250 million from taxpayers. Trump secured funding from Congress to renovate the John F. Kennedy Center for the Performing Arts, then slapped his own name on its facade before a judge ordered that it be removed. The president proposed shutting down the center for two years to complete his renovations, but the judge blocked that plan, too.

Garden of American Heroes: At least $40 million from taxpayers and unclear sources. Trump wants to build reflecting pools, plazas, dining facilities and an amphitheater — alongside 250 life-size statues of notable Americans — at West Potomac Park. Congress has approved $40 million for the project, but the statues alone could cost that much, according to the administration’s estimates. It’s not clear where funding for the rest of the project would come from.

Trump is also spending millions to remodel the Reflecting Pool (travails of which The Times has documented), the Lincoln Memorial and fountains around the city.

The White House declined to answer many of our reporters’ questions about funding for his projects, but suggested that taxpayer money would likely be used for most of them. New York Times analysis shows there will be significant taxpayer expense associated with all of Mr. Trump’s building and renovation initiatives. The 18 major construction projects Mr. Trump has undertaken during his second term come with a potential cost of more than $1 billion.

TRUMP PROJECTS ACCOUNTING


Of course that bid-free contract for the reflecting pool was given to one of the IMPeror's donors who, admittedly, didn't know anything about what he was undertaking and who had never replaced a pool liner before so therefore just another LIAR-In-Chief corrupt, ''fraud and waste'' bamboozle in the making.

Then when the botch-job starts peeling and breaking apart floating to the top, the LIAR-In-Chief, in his typical style, starts hunting for somebody to place the blame on. So, he comes out with a ''theory'' that somebody, somehow, ran along (swam underwater?) the entire 350 foot length of the pool and cut the lining loose with a ''box cutter''. Too ridiculous to believe for anybody besides the gullible MAGAS and the FOX News hosts awaiting another bull---- spin opportunity!

Then, in a desparate attempt to find some innocent by-stander on which to place blame, they ARREST a 67 year old, former U.S. olympian who just happened to ride by the pool during a 64 mile bike ride. Being a company owner who made composite materials used in watercraft, he was naturally curious about the pool liner material and when he saw a chunk that was still attached to the side of the pool, he said he reached down to briefly touch the chunk and then let go when a park official ran over and told him to. ''I just reached down to see what it felt like. It was very rubbery'', he said.

This simple little incident was naturally blown up into a criminal act by the FELON-In-Chief's faux DC Attorney General, former FOX NEWS screamer, Jeanine Pirro who accused the curious citizen of ''forcefully and vilolently'' pulling up the bottom liner ''with both hands''. Meanwhile, according to this disgrace to the legal system, authorities have also made ''about six other misdemeanor arrests''. I guess she'll try to see that they are all imprisoned as the ''guilty parties' to ''box-cut'' the liner. I suppose they also imported the green slime.

Meanwhile the FELON-In-Chief keeps on pardoning one criminal after the other, under the radar, while his corrupt NONsupreme Court overturns the convictions of the Proud Boys for their January 6th raid on the capitol. The IMPeror most recently pardoned eleven more people, including nine convicted in vehicle emissions cases whom he says were punished for 'fixing their car'. He, then, also pardoned a convicted former business partner of Washington lobbyist Jack Abramoff. We just can't have ANY of the FELON-In-Chief's criminal political cronies being rightfully punished, now can we? The very SICK INSANITY of this UNBELIEVABLY, OPENLY CORRUPT COUPany regime just never, never stops... it just grows and spreads like the terrible cancer it is on our government and our society in general!

You Republicans hearing about any of this on your ''state media network'' FOX News while you feed on your daily propaganda diet, are you ?


Did you miss this?
Virginia State officials had asked the justices to step in to allow the state to use a congressional map in the midterms that was drawn by Democrats and recently approved by the voters themselves. Let that sink in ... approved by the Virginia voters themselves". So, what did the Führer's puppet court decide? They did NOT allow it but instead OVERTURNED the will of the people (SOME DEMOCRACY, HUH?!). Naturally ... what else do you expect from a Non-supreme court that has become the most blatantly corrupt in American history whereby at least three of its justices should be impeached if we were still a just and lawful constitutionally governed country. Of course, we no longer are thanks to them and the tyrant they exclusively serve and gave FULL IMMUNITY FROM THE LAW. What better, clearer example than overturning the will of the people and discarding their votes! Who can begin to argue otherwise?

Contradictorily, they upheld the illegal maps of the Gerrymandering Republicans in some red states including Texas and Alabama. Why of course! In the first major case since the justices narrowed the Voting Rights Act, the court cleared the way for Alabama to use a map preferred by Republicans that eliminates a majority-Black district. The courts eliminate the ''Black districts'' while the FOX-News weekend host, Hegseth, gets up from his Pentagon make-up table to eliminate Black, and female, officers or specifically curtail promotions of the few he allows to stay on.

MEANWHILE ...
if you've wondered whether the IMPeror had gotten past pestering Greenland, the answer is no....the perpetually power hungry bully still has his goons going at it in private while he still threatens to invade. His bimbo press secretary, Karo-LYIN' Leavitt, recently laughingly said in a podcast interview that the regime should consider drafting all the ''spoiled'' leftist kids into their military and force them to invade Cuba (and Greenland) whenever her Führer decides he's ready. In ongoing closed-door talks, the U.S. continues to demand a major role in the control of Greenland against the wishes of all its citizenry and leaders. Greenlandic officials worry about the direction of the negotiations aimed at defusing the war criminal's continuing threats to seize their island but they have little leverage.

You can be SURE that during this distraction of the Iran war, there are more atrocities than ever going on, and being planned, under the table and behind closed doors as they continue to ''flood the zone'' with one destructive activity after another. It's ALL about POWER and GREED ... as always.


And speaking of Iran ...
Just like the $352m in federal funds designated for the Secret Service that the COUPany regime has quietly redirected toward the IMPeror's controversial White House ballroom project, despite repeated promises by the LIAR-In-Chief that the project would be entirely privately funded, his Iran deal promises private funding to the tune of $300 billion be given to Iran by ''private donors''. Yeah right! If you are someone who STILL believes ANY statement coming out of this defamed and corrupted White House, then you are an even bigger fool now than you were when you voted for him!

Instead of the "unconditional surrender" Chump lauded, what he settled for was less than we had before he stirred the hornets' nest with his senseless bombing plus new concessions to boot. Of course the deal went down the drain anyway and who knows whether it was ever a real option to begin with. The strait is open...no closed...no open...no closed...no open....no closed etc. etc. and the idiotic players keep the stock market bouncing up and down in accordance with his whimsical lies like the yoyos they are! While the Iranians continue to suffer substantial losses in the war, they will emerge from a confrontation with the world’s most powerful military having proven that they can use economic chaos as a valid and effective weapon.

The Iran deal is a U.S. failure in writing. “This is the biggest geopolitical power shift in the Gulf since the start of the Iran-Iraq war. There is a new sheriff in town. Dial 1-800-Ayatollah.” — Thomas L. Friedman, a NY Times Opinion columnist



From the blatant corruption department ...
While everyone else is may be suffering financially, the IMPeror's financial ''rake-ins'' while in office are at a level once unimaginable for any leader of a democracy, ESPECIALLY any sitting American president. Of course we are no longer, technically, a certain operating democracy. The release of a mandatory financial disclosure for 2025 shows that the Trump family’s holdings, particularly the FELON-In-Chief's crypto businesses, were ''stunningly lucrative'' to say the least. The IMPeror and his mafia family pulled in over $2 Billion in just a short time after returning to the White House by, literally, offering the Presidency of the United States for sale, in a variety of ways, to the highest bidders! They don't even have to worry about ''underhanded dealings under the table'' ... they can just flaunt their multiple acts of corruption right out in the open with no one to hold them accountable. Wow ... is America ''GREAT AGAIN'' or what? Among all his countless grifts, Don-The-Con and his Mafia family reaped vast financial rewards from a memecoin that generated losses for hundreds of thousands of investors.

And speaking of losses to investors....
How about those ongoing losses of the shortsighted voters who invested in another Trump presidency? Most of them are STILL too myopic to see them but they WILL FEEL THEM sooner or later!


THEN ...
The regime's political hijacking of the F.B.I. continues as it assigns scores of ''analysts'' to supposedly "examine" election records in Georgia. The 260 analysts...can you believe that?...260 "analysts" ... assigned to the “priority” investigation by Kash Patel are a reflection of the FELON-In-Chief's ongoing push to prove his baseless claims that the 2020 election was rigged wasting agency time and resources at taxpayer expense (If the Democrats are such ''Dumocrats'' [remember most people don't know there is a ''B'' in dumb], then how are they so capable of ''rigging'' and ''stealing'' an election, Mr. Chump? You can't have it both ways! And, if they are that clever, why in hell didn't they mercifully rig this last one to be rid of you and have you in jail where you rightfully belong?).

Don't be surprised if this false front operation also produces the false "proof" that the Liar-In-Chief demands. If you think this is bad its just a rehearsal I assure you. Just imagine what they have planned for the midterms!

Former special counsel Jack Smith warned that the U.S. is facing an “attack on the rule of law” under Trump ...FACING AN ATTACK? Come on Mr. Smith...he's been attacking the rule of law since he came down the gold escalator! Smith says he is “very concerned” about the integrity of future elections and accuses the administration of openly weaponizing the Department of Justice (DOJ). Smith, the special counsel who brought charges against Trump following his first term, argued that the department has seriously fundamentally weakened under Trump. “Regardless of what you think politically, they’re just not effective at doing their job anymore,” he said in an interview on MS NOW’s “Deadline: White House” — his first interview since resigning 10 days before Trump’s second inauguration. Well, that is certainly putting it all mildly!

Smith acknowledged it “could happen” that he’d be indicted by the DOJ for angering Trump by prosecuting him, as others like former FBI Director James Comey and New York Attorney General Letitia James have seemingly been targeted as Trump’s perceived political enemies. He said it “angers” him to see public servants, who work on cases that aren’t favorable to Trump or his allies, “demonized for doing their jobs” by the Trump administration. Well it more than angers me ...it sickens me ... and it is even more sickening that it continues to be supported, along with all the rest of the voluminous corruption, by many mainstream Republicans!


Most Americans agree that money should be removed from politics to the greatest extent possible ... everyone except the Republicans and their NONSupreme Court that is. The Tyranny's puppet top court just lifted all spending limits on political parties and candidates. This backwards decision is, naturally, a major victory for Republicans and the resulting flood of paid for propaganda by the bribing oligarchs and corporate interests could undercut one of the Democrats’ advantages going into the midterms. Of course that's the whole point. The sole purpose of the Republican party now is to just stay in power at all costs and to continue to undo any progressive legislation and protections put in place by Democrats for the good of the people. They continue their plans to sabotage the midterm elections in all ways possible as the KNOW they could NOT win a free and fair election.

They have proven over and over that a free and fair democracy no longer matters in the slightest to them and that ALL they are concerned about is continuing their hold on power in order to purvey more corruption, personal enrichment, revenge against their political oponents whom they label ''the enemy from within'' and to destroy all federal protections and benefits for the populace at every level within their reach....period! This is, by far, the most dangerous time in modern American political history as we still sit on this right-wing powder keg while most Americans just hum along and appear oblivious to it all ... just ''normal'' ... just ''business as usual''. We desparately need a DRASTIC AWAKENING to put an end to this madness and once again, somehow at all costs, re-create a government that is truly of the people, for the people and by the people!


Sneakin' & Squeakin' ...
I mentioned last time that the Sneaker/Squeaker of the House, MAGA Mike Johnson had labeled social security as an ''entitlement'' that needed to be cut and that it would so be addressed in the 2027 Congress! Well, this call for Republicans to act on Social Security reform if they keep control of Congress in 2027 is getting pushback from Senate Republicans who warn it's a ''bad political message'' heading into November. Well, ''NO S----''!

Yet, a trustees' report claiming that the popular retirement program will become insolvent sooner than expected has lit a fire under lawmakers in both parties to call for reforms such as raising the cap on payroll taxes, "means testing" beneficiaries, raising the retirement age, and creating personal accounts to invest in the stock markets. The Social Security trustees' report warned that beneficiaries would see their monthly checks cut by 22 percent in 2032. Fiscal conservatives are, meanwhile of course, applauding Johnson's bold talk.

No money for social security but trillions to throw away on needless war mongering, multiple fat contracts for their corporate donors, billions for the ICE Gestapo and their ''concentration camps'', and vanity projects for their beloved Führer! HEY MAGA ... ARE WE ''GREAT'' AGAIN YET? FEELIN' THAT ''GOLDEN AGE'' IN YOUR BANK ACCOUNT ARE YOU?

These ''fiscal conservatives'' are just as stupidly hypocritical as the so-called ''pro-lifers'' who are obsessed with controlling a woman's right to her decisions about her own body while at the same time they are just fine with ICE running around killing people in the streets, indiscriminate killings of boaters in international waters and their support of incessant genocide and war crimes such as Israel in Gaza and the U.S. bombing of a girl's school in Iran as well as other civilians ... not to mention their unconcern for future life on this planet in general with their support of lifting all environmental protections just so that they can continue to fill their over-sized, status symbol (so they think) gas guzzlers with their pollution restrictions removed as well!

It's hard to fathom that in the year 2026, we have a corrupt, lobby bribed regime running this country (into the ground) that is hell-bent on taking us back to the dark ages quite literally....the days of skies full of smog smoke and soot. They want the environment to be as dark and dirty as the way they operate. Line the sky with black while they line their wallets with green.

A new report from clean energy think tank Energy Innovation suggests higher energy bills will continue for the next decade, tied directly to Trump’s policies. It comes as energy affordability is emerging as a key issue in this year’s midterm elections....just another reason why they are working on so many ways to rig the election!

A year ago, Republicans in Congress killed a clean energy law that had contained billions in subsidies for renewables, electric vehicles, rooftop solar and household batteries. The administration has made it a deliberate policy of making it harder to permit clean energy projects and has tipped the scales in favor of more expensive, and practically speaking OBSOLETE, coal-fired power (Remember ''Coalie''?). And, of course, the Führer's government has waged a largely successful onslaught against the budding electric vehicle market in the US letting China, Europe, Australia and New Zealand become inherent leaders in that regard. And we KNOW that windmills are dangerous and ''cause cancer'' and ''kill birds by the millions'' because the ''stable genius'' continues to dribble it at every speech opportunity. He's almost as ''smart'' as his brain-wormed ''health secretary'' who has now promoted BEEF FAT (LARD) as the new frying standard to replace vegetable oils! And, there are actually food companies and restaurant chains now announcing that they are jumping on board with this insanity! WHAT A COUNTRY we now live in!

From the ''A I '' department ...
Want one more example of how AI is screwing up the world?
You might have seen that someone posted a legit looking sign at a McDonald's drive-through saying that the restaurant was now charging a dollar "convenience fee" for using the drive-thru. Of course it was AI "BS" and, of course, it spread like wildfire all over social media. Now, here's the kicker and the dangerous, albeit interesting, part....
Asking the Bing and Google search engines whether this was true or false displayed AI-generated answers that inaccurately confirmed the story about the new $1 convenience fee, citing unverified social media posts as credible sources! In a world where you already can't trust most anything you read/hear/see ... the last thing we need is a bunch of losers with nothing else to do but play around with AI in the wee hours (bring anyone to mind?) continually slopping the AI trough! Of course the biggest loser with nothing on his mind but playing with AI in the middle of the night happens to be the Felon in the White House who, supposedly, the majority of "RI" voters "blessed" us with last election.

And ... finally ... from the ''separation of church and state department'' ...
(Remember that from the Constitution we once had?)

DALLAS (AP) — Texas' education board approved a required reading list for more than 5 million public school students that includes Bible stories, widening conservative efforts to bring Christian teachings into U.S. classrooms. The state-mandated list of assigned reading — which includes Charles Dickens' "Great Expectations" and excerpts from the New Testament — appeared to be among the first of its kind of the nation and will take effect starting in 2030.


The State Board of Education, which is naturally controlled by Republicans, approved the list on a 9-5 vote following weeks of contentious debate that again put Texas at the center of wrangling over the role of religion in public schools. Last year, Texas became the largest state to require teachers to hang the Ten Commandments in every classroom. Isn't it ironic that a group of hypocrites can force their concept of religion into the classrooms with the ten commandments but yet they don't require themselves, or their fellow so-called "conservative" politicians, to live by any of them...in fact, they exemplify the exact opposite ... complete and TOTAL showboat hypocrisy!

As I close out this first edition which kicks off yet another quarter of posts on DaviSoapbox.com ... I, once again, thank all of you for your ongoing support and continued following. I was most surprised to see that our site stats have actually GROWN over the last two months even though I have scaled back the posting to just once per month (most months anyway). I never ever dreamed I would wind up doing being ''political commentary'', especially on a regular basis. But, then, I never dreamed I would live to see such a desparate political situation destroying my beloved country! Drastic times call for drastic measures!

I realize that my own little efforts here are just a ''drop in the ocean'' compared to most, but I do this to call attention to the fact that EVERY concerned American, who is capable, should NOW SPEAK OUT IN ANY AND EVERY WAY POSSIBLE!

I want to be on record, when the honest history is someday written about the era of Trumpism and the MAGA cult, that I joined those who were truly on the RIGHT side of history by standing up for TRUTH ... and REALITY ... by standing against, calling out and documenting the most dangerous and corrupt political machine ever to crawl out of the political slime and come to power in my lifetime and beyond! Perhaps that ''green slime'' in the reflecting pool is the most accurate metaphor for, and true reflection of, the sickening corruption that we've been enduring under this despicable regime.

I am also very pleased when I get that occasional email or text from any of you who are so inclined to drop me a note of support (or critique)! I don't get very many these days but I remind you that I welcome and solicit them and that all are kept private and confidential. Also, all are responded to as soon as possible. If you ever send a message and don't get a reply in a reasonable amount of time, it simply means I did not get it for some reason ... in that case please try again!

If you are new here, I thank you for joining us and remind you that I post a separate web page for each three month quarter. I urge you to please go back and review the prior editions linked above for foundational material and right here on this page for the remainder of the quarter.

Until next time ... this old broadcaster says ...
Please tune in again ...''same station''!

Thank you sincerely,
Hayne Davis
As always ... please excuse any typos! I try to proof-read (no spell-check) but ... well ... you know!

DAVISPECIAL ANNOUNCEMENT!
As I close out another edition of DaviSoapBox, as always I SINCERELY thank you all for continuing to join me here! Some of you have taken your time to send me an email now and then and I do appreciate and ALWAYS welcome that. One recent suggestion I received was to publish my posts on a designated schedule so that readers would know when to look for the latest. I think that is an excellent suggestion so ...''DaviSchedule'' it is henceforth! HOWEVER ... while I will have a designated date for regular monthly posts (as you may have noticed, my frequency of new posts has waned significantlly as of late mainly due to increasing duties and time constraints on the homefront and the workfront), I MAY also, when circumstances dictate, post additional supplements from time to time during any given month. Otherwise, there will only be ONE per month.

But, that considered...
From now on, the REGULAR posting date for DaviSoapBox will be the 15th of each month. Thank you again!

In my opinion, Rachel Maddow is, BY FAR, the BEST all around news commentator anywhere today, period! She is honest, intelligent, articulate and has a way of framing her commentaries in a clear and factual manner unlike anyone else out there. And there is NO DOUBT that her CONCERN for our sad state of affairs is truly genuine! I HIGHLY recommend that you follow her insights regularly if you REALLY want to know what's going on!
Rachel Maddow Mission Statement .

Another YouTube favorite of mine is a brilliant young woman who calls herself ''Politics Girl''. She, herself, is putting aside ongoing health issues to crusade against the numerous atrocities of this second Trump Administration. Here again, she is also intelligent, factual and forceful in her commentary with an obvious, deep passion for exposing the truth behind the corruption.
You can find her channel here-
POLITICS GIRL .

This next one is most unique! Here you find a guy that, at first glance, you might label as a definite ''MAGA Redneck''! He has the southern accent and often uses imperfect grammar. But this ''Blue surrounded by RED'' Tennessee native is one of the more entertaining and insightful presenters on YouTube with an audience that is growing drastically day by day. He has the most honest, common sense approach to presenting the ''receipts'', as he calls them, of the numerous atrocities of Trump and company. He calls himself -
Tennessee Brando .

I would be willing to bet, that most MAGA supporters don't even know about Mary Trump, the psychologist niece of Donald Trump. If they did, HOW ON EARTH could they have ignored her inside revelations for years prior to the recent election (well, that is a DUMB question on my part since I have pointed out as often as anyone that the MAGA crowd ALWAYS ignores any TRUTH about their glorified cult leader!)? Here is how WIKIPEDIA describes Mary Trump - ''Mary Lea Trump (born May 3, 1965) is an American psychologist and writer. A member of the Trump family, she has been critical of her uncle, U.S. President Donald Trump. Her 2020 book about him and the family, Too Much and Never Enough, sold nearly one million copies on the day of its release''. Her YouTube channel is-
Mary Trump Media .

Perhaps the truly largest and fastest growing independent ''news network'' on YouTube is now the Meidas Touch Network. They have a variety of presenters from time to time under their banner and they keep up with the current events of the MAGA bunch on a nearly daily basis. Although they are now, all too often in my opinion, presenting themselves in a ''tabloidish'' style, they are still worth keeping up with. They are here -
