Dems do just as much to divide. Call out every group, rather than call us ALL Dems or Americans 1st. Most I know never want to hear about “pronouns” again. Support the community, but enough! Pronouns don’t pay the bills.

Cheeto And Erasing History

Marc Elias at Democracy Docket in his recent essay(https://bit.ly/48Sp4TK) points out in Orwell’s dystopian novel “1984” that the force behind the totalitarian regime was to not only distort and lie about historical facts but by the repetition of the lies, to erase history itself That history should be warped to fit the leader’s own narrative of what really happened

Cheeto’s entire malignant narcissistic public life career is to make his malevolent past history go away Erase it This is the force behind Cheeto’s obstruction of release of the Epstein files He’s also tried to erase his convictions in the E Jean Carroll case and the Tish James election interference case involving Stormy Daniels He successfully avoided prosecutions in the Mar A Lago documents case and the J6 incitement of riot but with his recent DOJ actions he continues to try to erase the facts like any good old fashioned malignant narcissist would do

Let’s just be clear Cheeto is a deranged depraved arrogant evil psychotic sociopath Beneath the façade of a hunched over lumbering frame is a sick sick mind History will remember him for that AND his attempted coverups So speak your mind loudly to your neighbors, friends, coworkers, and family unabashedly unafraid to hold Cheeto accountable for the history he has created And to try to never repeat the same mistake the American electorate made just as Germany has tried to do

The photo of Kamal Harris illustrates my own reaction to this political mess people actually voted for.

I must have missed the part where you guys indicated that small donors haven't been properly courted for years--maybe that is Idea #1 where you point out that the study advises to do x or y in regard to building a permanent machine. However, I also heard a lot about mega-donors, and that is probably a missed opportunity because a lot of regular folk perceive the Dems as too corporate, too establishment, too big-money-centric. I know the DNC lost a lot of support when they treated Bernie how they did. Like why would blue collar people not be a huge win--if Dems can get back some of their old mojo with this group? Why cede that ground in order to be more establishment and big-money-oriented?

Well one reason it might not have happened is because it's not too popular at the "top" where the Party leaders hang out. The loss of white blue collar men and such has been a major way the GOP made inroads into the Dems' power base for what 50 years...?

I want a crimes commission. If we’re going to heal as a nation, all of these trash need to be in prison.

Could not agree more with your statement that Dems must be ready to reform not restore when we return to the White House. Government has not been working for a lot of people and trying to go back to the way it was is not the way forward.
