Look at us all now, compared to pre Trump. We were a country of people not paying attention, so dispirited by how unequal we had become that there was massive no-showing to even vote. We are on fire now, getting the education we need about how everything works and doesn’t work so hopefully we will organize ourselves to get beyond this impasse and come out as the heroic species that tends Earth and each other. I keep urging people to pay attention to you, that you are our world teacher, the only one on the world stage equally steeped in politics and spirit. Just keep talking!

Thank you, Suzanne. And I totally agree with what you said about the changes in us.

In Islam, especially Shi'a Iran, there is a religious delusion/devotion to an ideal of martyrdom. One of many reasons being that the early Imams, 'Ali, (adopted son of Khadijah and Muhammad, pbuh) and Ali's sons, Husayn, Hasan, and others were martyred, even though they were men of peace, of faith. In Shi'a Islam (party of 'Ali) Ali, and his sons were the legitimate spiritual successors to Muhammad. In Shi'a Islam, there is widespread belief in a world wide 'purification' of humanity's hearts, minds, and bodies, via war, chaos, famine, tribulations, etc. This belief is similar to many Fundamentalist nationalist Christians. Both some Shi'ites and Christians expect, and WANT a world war III. They both believe these events will herald the return of Isa, the Christ (in the Quran). Therefore, some fanatic, extremist Shi'as in Iran, believe this war with Israel, and America (the great Satan) is a 'good' event, as it lead to fulfillment of prophecies of the end times. These troubled times are believed to be followed by a new earth, one of peace, harmony, prosperity, equity and beauty. Many Shi'a willingly will die as martyrs.

They also believe in the coming of al Mahdi, guided or divinely inspired individuals who will prepare the people, of earth for the return of Christ.

The above is a brief statement, of a huge subject.

My Sufi Arabic name is Hafiz 'Abdu'l Hakima. I've some idea, from education, and lived experience, about what I wrote here. Ameyn.

I respect your knowledge and wisdom. There is so much which has been kept from humanity. Only thing I know for sure is that the media is not to be believed or at least not totally; I personally am only likely aware of a small percentage of what is Truth. We have been dumbed down by the powers that be (including religion) and I suspect we live at a time where the Truth wants to be seen, respected and acknowledged. God is Truth and we have been lied to about Him/Her in order to keep us powerless. Thank you, what you shared is certainly not something I know anything about.

Suzanne, I came here to say the same thing . This is a true reckoning on our part . May we never be apathetic about our government again. Marianne predicted all of it and no one listened . May we all join in prayer that peace envelop the globe and a new earth be born . 🙏🙏🙏🙏🙏

what if that's trump's job - to wake humanity up. Something I read somewhere...

SUE Speaks's avatar

Maybe from me. Look how far off we had gotten for how dire it had to get for us to deal with going a different way.

I've been hearing that for about 5 years. It seems his soul came here for the purpose of taking the wrecking ball to everything in order for humanity to build back better. I'd say he's doing a good job with the wrecking ball - it's gotta hurt so everybody wakes up. Seems we may be on the same page Sue. Much respect. Maybe I'll be a US citizen in the future - Canadian at the moment, so already an American :-)xo

We won't be around to see if that gets to be the story that's told, but it helps us understand the mystery we are a part of, and how civilization-changing the times are, to step up for in doing the best we can.

Not much solace if you are one of the 100,000 Iranian's, Lebanese, Palestinians and others already murdered

See my comment to Gisele Sauve, above. Yup.

Many tribes, of indigenous people, call President Trump the archetypal clown, or trickster. This archetype in humanities collective psyche comes to shake things up, to destroy rather than build, to lie and hurt people, then laugh off others pain. As a trickster, or an anti-Christ, President Trump and his close associates, enabling loyalists, even think that what they are doing to all people, and our planet is necessary. And... since some one(s) has to do this role... why not enjoy the chaos, and profit from all the war, etc.

GISELE SAUVE's avatar

Very interesting. Yes from what I've come to believe is that Trump has no role in rebuilding, only destruction.

Karen Lavie's avatar

Could well be. There are lots of important roles to play that do not make you popular by earthly standards. Still, someone gotta do it :(

Dr Brent B Mathieu's avatar

Yes, we were an inattentive, self centered country, dispirited by partisan politics.

Except some of us were paying attention. We realized the storm that was brewing.

Our voices of warning were marginalized or ignored.

Dear marianne,

Thanks a million for keep writing about the things that are happening in the world good or bad.

If I don t hear anything from you in about a week I miss you already.

I want to inform you in these disastrous times of like almost WW3 that there are allso good things happening ( in my country the netherlands) that is to say on human and earthrights.

First, since 2008 there are more female judges than there are men s.

Second since 2019 in museums the museumworkers have discovered that women played a big role in the making of the art in their collections. And....they inform the visitors of the museums now by information on the plates next to the several art object in the collection.

So pf pf we are finally being seen as women for what we are worth. So that we have are own place in the collective subconscious of the dutch people ( and therefore in the world s subconscious).

Third, big buildingcompanies have discovered that the feel of wood to build a house with is different from the feel of a concrete house.

Fourth, several big companies have now a worker specialised in working with people who are neuro divergent.

I have a subscription of a magazine in which I red this.

And at last in the newspaper there is a lot of attention about personal boundaries and how to respect them.

There is a lot more what s happening that is very positive in human rights but I ll leave it here.

Love from Sabine from the netherlands in Europe

That is wonderful to hear Sabine, thank you for sharing.

…ambitious, unscrupulous miscreants - the whole lot. The Secretary of “War” speaks about death, pain, and human suffering with the immaturity and callousness of a teenager playing a video game. The Trump criminal regime is a kakistocracy for the ages.

It’s fruitless to try and analyze Trump. He just wants to keep us all jacked up. That’s how he stays in control. Say one thing on Monday. Something different on Tuesday

Looney. Looney. Looney.

Thank you for all you do and the clarity you provide🙏🏻🥰❤️

Trump is physically getting much weaker, his eyes puffy and even crazier than before. He doesn't read, and he uses two real estate agents as his top diplomats. Meanwhile he's doing whatever he can to destroy our country internally and internationally.

Getting together with genocidal killer Netanyahu and supplying him with unlimited bombs so he can wreak destruction on Iran and Lebanon, totally nuts. Trump's Iran adventure will not work out well for either side, and perhaps lead us into another endless war. I'm not encouraged.

Thank you, Marianne, for all you're doing to move all of us away from the darkness that rules us at present, and back into the light.

Thank you Marianne for being here for us all.

Maybe we are all one… Maybe there are those who bring out love through not being Love, while others bring out love through being Love. Maybe what we need to do is love those, all of us, who are not able to act from love to learn about loving in ourselves. That’s what we’re here to learn.

In the love department: “Every single thing we do in this life should come from love. Every action, every statement, even if you have to let somebody go, the hardest thing you have to do, can you do it with love and not anger, fear, greed? Most business decisions come from fear and greed. Can you make that exact same decision but from a place of love?” This quote, by Raj Sisodia, who works with business leaders, is in the eight minutes of his brilliant remarks on a panel about ‘human energy.’ https://vimeo.com/1093725258/1790b6d836

From Benjamin Netanyahu's National Intelligence Council: "It looks like there will not be an end to this war, anytime soon. There is no alternative at present, to the Islamic regime." Thanks for the update, ladies and gents!

I keep myself energized, clear, and sane, regularly, from listening to you, Marianne. Thank you. Thank you. Thank you. You and Heather Cox Richardson. Perfect harmony. ❤️

Once again, Marianne, you've nailed it. Thank God for you and others who write the truth.

Well said, perfect maniacs!

The cretinous diplomacy of Kushner and Witkoff…

Along with the treasonous partnering…

With Netanyahu and Putin…

Has brought another Middle East forever war…

To the American People…

Creating death, more enemies and deficits…

War and Deficits…

The MAGA Brand…

It does help the billionaires…

And the Military Industrial Complex…

In the meantime…

We’ve emboldened our enemies…

Made Russia and Putin great again…

And gave Netanyahu everything he ever wanted…

Tell me again how Trump is not working for Putin and Netanyahu…

Thank you for your keen clarity, sharp vision and resilient hope, "the thing with feathers," that flies above these wars and destruction...🕊️🕊️🕊️
