It is Not The South - It is THE CONFEDERACY

Where is My Trump Phone!?!?!

Hawk breaks down the long history of Trump merchandise grifts targeting loyal MAGA supporters, from Trump Bibles and fake Gibson Les Pauls to NFTs now worth nothing, digital trading cards, gold high-top sneakers, and Trump watches with missing letters on the face. The $60 million phone scam sits alongside the $300 million election defense fund raised after 2020, money that was kept rather than spent on legal challenges. The pattern is consistent: non-refundable deposits, no contractual obligation, and supporters who return again and again regardless. One supporter put deposits on four phones and lost $400. The fine print protected the Trump family entirely. With gas prices climbing and questions about democratic institutions growing louder, the Trump phone story is a case study in the financial relationship between a political movement and the merchandise empire built around it.

Four Ways to Save America

Next, Hawk calls for expanding the Supreme Court by four seats, drawing nominees from federal judges who held the line against the Trump administration, including Judge Boasberg. Ketanji Brown Jackson gets the nod for Chief Justice. Puerto Rico and Washington DC become states, adding four new senators and giving millions of Americans real representation for the first time. Roe v. Wade gets codified into law nationwide. And critically, Hawk argues Chuck Schumer and Hakeem Jeffries must not lead the Senate or House, citing their stated loyalties to foreign interests over their own base. All four items fit on one piece of paper. Voting rights. Court reform. Statehood. Reproductive rights. That's the plan.

Democrats Can Still Win The House in November

The generic ballot still shows a six-point Democratic advantage. Since early last year, Democrats have outperformed Kamala Harris's 2024 numbers by 13 to 15 points across 32 special elections. Republican enthusiasm is low, the party is divided, and Donald Trump is not on the ballot this fall. Trump's approval on the economy, inflation, and immigration is worse than Joe Biden's numbers were at their lowest. The Iran war is historically unpopular, and with the Strait of Hormuz still closed, the worst economic pain — including potentially $10-per-gallon gas in California — has not yet hit. Eighty percent of Americans, in a strongly bipartisan poll, blame Trump and the Iran war for rising prices. That economic pain is expected to peak right before the midterms. On the gerrymandering front, Texas redrew its map to gain seats — but three of those new districts are heavily Hispanic and Latino, populations that shifted toward Trump in 2024. Those gains may evaporate, potentially turning into Democratic pickups. Hawk also speaks honestly about the racial dimension of these court decisions, reflecting on the experience of Black Americans who are not surprised by any of this — and what it means that the crowning achievement of the Civil Rights era has effectively been dismantled, rendering the votes of 26 million Black Americans in the South nearly meaningless.

It is Not The South - It is THE CONFEDERACY

From Pete Hegseth's erasure of Black Americans and women from military history, to Donald Trump's dismantling of DEI programs across the federal government, to Stephen Miller's openly stated goal of ethnic cleansing, Hawk connects the dots between policy and intent. The firing of hundreds of thousands of Black federal workers, the targeting of universities and corporations with DEI policies, and the Supreme Court's systematic gutting of the Voting Rights Act are all part of the same pattern. Chief Justice John Roberts, Clarence Thomas, and Samuel Alito have spent decades working to eradicate the Voting Rights Act, the landmark 1965 legislation that Hawk argues represented the first true moment the United States became a functioning representative democracy. That legacy is now being dismantled in real time. Hawk makes the case that in 2026, there is no longer any reasonable argument that a Trump voter is not fully aware of what they are supporting. Racism, misogyny, bigotry, homophobia, and transphobia were not hidden in the 2024 campaign — they were the campaign. If the shoe fits, it fits.

Kash Patel is Coming Undone

Rather than letting it go, Patel has responded in ways that are raising serious red flags. He filed a $250 million defamation lawsuit against Fitzpatrick and The Atlantic. He then directed the FBI to open a criminal investigation into the journalist who wrote the story. And now he has ordered polygraph testing of more than two dozen current and former members of his own security detail and IT staff. Hawk points out a glaring legal contradiction: by suing for defamation, Patel is claiming the allegations are false. But by simultaneously launching a criminal leak investigation inside the FBI to find out who talked to Fitzpatrick, he is effectively confirming the stories are true. You cannot claim something is fabricated while hunting down the people who allegedly fabricated it. FBI rank and file agents have no loyalty to Patel. Former agents have gone on record saying the level of contempt inside the bureau for Patel is unlike anything they have seen. He has purged roughly a thousand senior agents, hollowed out institutional knowledge built over decades, and the DOJ has lost close to 7,000 employees nationwide. The people keeping this country safe are being fired, overworked, and replaced with loyalty over competence.
