Deep dives

Growing Discontent with the Trump Administration

Recent protests across the United States indicate a rising dissatisfaction among citizens with the Trump administration's policies. Events like the 'Hands Off' protests demonstrate a shift from the Democratic Party's strategy of waiting out the administration to a more active resistance movement. High-profile figures like AOC and Bernie Sanders have attracted large crowds to their rallies, suggesting a renewed energy among the left. However, there is concern that these protests could lead to an alignment with the Democratic Party, potentially diverting the movement from more radical goals.

I’ve been using Snipd for about a year and this app has been life changing. I listen to about 17 hours of podcasts a week and I want to take notes on 95% of them. Snipd makes it so easy to do. I can triple click my headphones and record a snip. The app also improves rapidly which is welcomed. It’s an easy subscription for me to pay.
