This is great. Exactly the right kind of discussion.
I would recommend anyone who hasn't to look into George Lakoff's books, for example "The Political Mind", which provides a way to understand framing to maximize our messages.
This was great! I listen to the news and get so frustrated when they try to both sidesism and give him credit or try to not be too confrontational. They need to use this messaging because it is the truth. There is o bothsidesism.
Laura, I’ve wondered if the opportunities exist now -or will soon- for an independent party to emerge if the Democratic National Committee keeps their ‘minds seized in concrete’ approach to campaign strategy.
Honestly I believe they are pulling their heads out of the sand. I have been watching the hearings and committees on capital hill and these younger people are pushing back, loud. They are calling them out all the time. The problem, I think, really lies with the news and right now the speed at which he is moving. This, I think, is certainly going to be a reset for the country. I just pray that it means we hold faster and stronger onto this republic and never let this happen again.
Berulis the whistleblower who just showed us what the Nazi goons did at NLRB should be very concerning DOGE has been into the federal databases at many different agencies now and they are cultivating a database outside govt to be used by the Nazi party for nefarious purposes
One purpose that should very much concern all of us is the use of DMF(death master files) which are meant to affect immigrants but other citizens as well whose social security numbers can be deleted so that the affected can no longer function financially in the country(being wrongfully identified as dead leads to benefit termination causing financial hardship and distress)
Think for a moment about being financially dead You can't access your bank accounts, credit cards, pay your mortgage, collect social security These files are potentially being created as I write this to be used for all kinds of twisted corrupt reasons but the most important is killing voters ability to cast votes in 2026
Contact your state AG and tell them of this concern This activity must be guarded against
I have also considered expressing my concerns to an officer at the bank where my Social Security and federal pension are direct-deposited and finding out what suggestions they have to protect myself. It’s a large national bank that could have some political clout if they chose to exercise it. I figure if they hear that from enough people it may filter up.
