There is a peaceful solution.
It's called a peace revolution.
Now let's take back America.
There's a war and we're in it,
but I know we can win it.
So let's take back America.
It's a dream, so believe it.
Now get ready to receive it.
And let's take back America.
And when the war is over and we've won it
let's remember how we done it,
because we might have to do it again.
There is a peaceful solution.

Now let's take back America.
There's a war and we're in it,
but I know we can win it.
Now let's take back America.
There was a peace resolution
and a peaceful revolution
and the peaceful solution saved America.

On January 20th, it begins...
Political revenge. Mass deportations. Project 2025. Unfathomable corruption. Attacks on Social Security, Medicare, and Medicaid. Pardons for insurrectionists. An all-out assault on democracy. Republicans in Congress are scrambling to give Trump broad new powers to strip the tax-exempt status of any nonprofit he doesn’t like by declaring it a “terrorist-supporting organization.” Trump has already begun filing lawsuits against news outlets that criticize him. At Common Dreams, we won’t back down, but we must get ready for whatever Trump and his thugs throw at us. Our Year-End campaign is our most important fundraiser of the year. As a people-powered nonprofit news outlet, we cover issues the corporate media never will, but we can only continue with our readers’ support. By donating today, please help us fight the dangers of a second Trump presidency. |
