Tom Nichols Noticed Something About Trump That Nobody In The Media Will Say Out Loud [View all]

May 8, 2026 #TruthMatters #DemocracyDefenders #IndependentMedia

Tom Nichols of The Atlantic joins Jim Acosta with a warning the mainstream media won't touch. He's seen these behavioral patterns before — up close, in someone he loved — and what he's watching from this president has him alarmed. There's a war happening. Decisions are being made. And the person making them may not be who you think they are. If this was someone in your family, you'd already know what to do.
