Tuesday


In breaking news, a Senior Federal Judge in Philly has BLOCKED Trump’s efforts to operate his own Ministry of Truth to whitewash slavery out of American History, and deface and destroy a national monument in Independence Hall Park dedicated to George Washington’s first house and his enslavement of 9 people.

Michael Popok reports on Judge Rufe quoting from George Orwell, and takes on Trump whom she calls a base “chief magistrate” who is not allowed to both sides the slavery in America facts just because he is in power. - 02/16/2026.
