Marianne you are correct in the video about Kamala's approach being off the mark. Indeed, voters need to know more in just 13 days why she is better than Trump for all the people. She needs to explain she will back "what works for you!" Marianne, excellent comments/insight as you always provide--clarity is important. And thanks for sharing the Taibbi piece I look forward to reading it. Blessings to you. Joan
Harris is a stooge of the existing system. The one that created the pandemic restrictions including forced injections and masking and isolation. The ones who are censoring our right to speak our minds, for example on social media. The ones who are poisoning the planet, the food, and in general Americans' health! And the economy is in a wreck. I won't support a continuation of these puppets running the show. As far as I'm concerned the powers that are controlling our lives in so many ways, it's basically Evil. So I'm voting Trump, and by doing so I'm voting for RFK Jr. Because if Trump wins RFK Jr will also be in Washington working to make positive changes, and working with Trump. Those in control are also controlling all the mainstream media. Criticizing Trump. Backing Harris. Just read the headlines. It's manipulation. You can see some videos on Youtube from RFK Jr to hear more of what he has to say.
I had hoped to view it live and look forward to viewing the entire conversation tomorrow. Thank you, Marianne. We, on this Substack, have seen your work, care and love.
"The senseless cannot be made meaningful by repetition and clamor. The quiet way is open. Follow it happily"and why question that it is so.
Stay on your eagle's perch, aware and observant, feeling the maelstrom without being sucked into the torrent. Be aware of your thoughts. Don't stay in fear. Power, money, fame, influence, politics, media and all the like are meaninglessness at the core of who we are. Nothing and no one has power that we don't allow it with our thoughts. We were not born into this world with beliefs. Every belief we hold dear is likely from someone/something else's belief system. Time to put that aside, stop listening to the rhetoric, ground, center and tune into our own beliefs. The quiet way IS open. Let it be.
This is the best comment I have ever read on the internet. I feel this way, exactly! I have worked SO hard to attain peace of mind. No orange idiot is going to take up a neuron of space in my brain. I think the lesson I have learned from this campaign is to stop
putting our faith in ANY candidate. We expect them to be super humans, with all the answers and solutions to societal problems
But WE are the solutions to the problems that WE have created. It is the right of the people alter or abolish the systems that no longer work (ie are fucking corrupt) and institute new government. Like Iceland did! Let’s all be like Iceland.
Hi. Life is choices, and I sit back happy to be able to make a choice, but I feel it is a matter of Love or hate. dictatorship or finally working to fix things for all people, not just the rich. We all matter, and I pray it can be fixed, and I feel Kamala is the beautiful soul to do it. Truth or lies. So many want to trust. TY for all you do. Love, Judith
Sorry, but don’t agree with you about Matt T. He always had a hysterical streak and now he’s childishly working to push a fascist into the presidency. You should know better.
I don't really agree with Matt T or much of the furoure about the first amendment. AI, the advent of social media, the spread of damaging fake news does need a state to take steps on. It is if course a tricky area but over here in Europe it is not a spy state system as it seems to be suggested in America.
When Kamala got the nomination, I thought the smartest thing she could do was spend time talking to you, Marianne. This could be that! Get into conversations like this. Hopefully she'll hear you.
There are gate keepers that will determine our news, our understanding and our reality … that is … If we let them … It’s our responsibility to seek out the truth wherever we can find it … don’t allow yourselves to be spoon fed … get out there and shake the trees and keep looking for what’s accurate … what’s honest … and what’s fair … Thanks for doing this … Great Substack!
For those of us who are students of ACIM, please read lesson 128 - The world I see holds nothing that I want.
It seems to me, the further I go in this process, the more ridiculous the world becomes. Sure, the so-called people in power don’t like to hear anything from anyone who disagrees with them and will try to control what we say/what we write. But, you know what they can’t control? Our thoughts…our prayers. We are part of a spiritual underground that is powerful beyond measure. Don’t be distracted by the mass hallucinations we see in the physical world. Let us continue to quietly bless our brothers/sisters until our light joins with theirs… and then joins the beautiful golden light that is Source.
Yes, I’ve been saying that for the last several days: ENOUGH ALREADY ABOUT D.T! Talk to us, your base, about your approach to our issues. We know all we need to know about D.T.!
Thank you Marianne for all that you’ve done and I wish there was a true democracy, giving you a real chance! So many of us feel sadness also! I once believed in the lies but I can no longer have anything to do with this very corrupt Democrat party! I never thought in my wildest dreams I’d even consider Trump but I am listening to spirit and all the people he is listening to that, Trump is being used as a catalyst for change (bringing out the ugly along the way) but he is listening to & working with great leaders and willing to clean up government - with Kennedy, Tulsi, Elon, Russell Brand, Casey Means and so many more - I am waking up and smelling the coffee - even though it is hard to swallow! I wish you could have too! At least the real issues are being addressed - no more wars (Dick Cheney with Kamala is sickening), clean house of government agencies, Make America Healthy Again, and many more - even though I don’t agree with Republican views at least they are talking about the real issues & wanting to do something about it - just like you did! Peace and love
So this is what the beginning of the mind-washing process sounds like. I could not for the life of me figure out how sane(?) folks decided to advocate for Trump. Now, I get it. It's shocking. These 'great leaders' you list.... how much have you researched them? Seriously. And 'the real issues' you say 'are being addressed'? Maybe look into history a bit more closely.
Here, check out the work of scholar in the subjects of history and politics (not a politician or rich person with her own personal aims in all this):
Yes, it's kind of long, but real life, and the past that creates the present and the future have subtlety and nuance that is important.
Also, highly recommended: any book (example: the Cult of Trump by Steven Hassan, PhD ) or article that describes the process by which people become indoctrinated into new belief systems and can be led into GroupThink (Orwell's word for it).
Note: Dr. Hassan was a Moonie in his youth, got out and de-programmed, and was so grateful to escape and concerned for others, he has spent his life learning how cults work and has helped many people recover from cult mental programming. He sees how much of Trump's 'program' is very similar to historically verifiable mind and brain training techniques.
This is brilliant and I'm directing people to listen to it. "With the LA Times and the Washington Post drama is in play, counter measures come to mind. This one would get us the Democrats who are staying home, which could be enough. For how, listen to five minutes of Marianne Williamson": https://suzannetaylor.substack.com/p/get-this-to-harris.
Yes and no...I believe it's more of a this AND that sort of thing. I personally have spoken to so many people recently who aren't even aware of the violence of Jan 6th and think it was a more or less peaceful protest. I am directing them to a NY Times video recap (https://www.nytimes.com/video/us/politics/100000007606996/capitol-riot-trump-supporters.html?auth=login-google1tap&login=google1tap&utm_medium=email&utm_source=substack) showing exactly how violent it was. I also believe too many people in the middle aren't yet aware of the things Trump does and says (like the Hitler stuff) and it's good to point that out since it's so important to our democracy, and yet all of the other issues you speak of are very important as well...so it's a full court press kind of situation to do all of this.
Dear Marianne, thank you so much for all of your work… i agree on the value of staying focused on people’s needs… K was doing more of that earlier, needs to refocus on it… in the meantime, here is a poem i wrote for all of us…

Dear Marianne, thank you so much for all of your work… i agree on the value of staying focused on people’s needs… K was doing more of that earlier, needs to refocus on it… in the meantime, here is a poem i wrote for all of us…
