Sure, let’s not score a win for the American people. Instead let’s score some political points for Democrats that don’t matter in people’s lives. That’s worked out so well, right? Right!!???

Understand who Tim Kaine is. He voted to confirm Kristi Noem and Scott Bessent. He voted to weaken Dodd Frank. This latest vote is no surprise. He’s an ineffectual weakass joke. He’s never been a fighter for the people. And don’t get me started on Durbin.

The Democratic caucus in the Senate must immediately remove Schumer and Durbin from leadership. They have no credibility and it will mitigate the political fallout with voters who believe the Dems need to fight.

Another consequence of Trump dismantling worker protections. There is no functioning NLRB to protect workers from unlawful retaliation.

www.nytimes.com/2025/11/06/u... these bishops are shameful. Unlike the Pope, who called for the liberty of religion for all detainees, regardless of faith, these hypocritical political tools ask only that Catholics be afforded basic rights.

At the polls in VA today a GOP operative asked me to take his sample ballot. I replied, “in a choice between one party that wants to feed hungry kids and the other that wants to put some kids in handcuffs, I’ll go with the party that wants to feed the kids.”

Happy Halloween

The House passed CR funded the government through Nov 21. If the Dems in the Senate pass it on November 20, would federal workers, military, and SNAP be paid through November with feds and military getting back pay to Oct 1? The government would shut down again on Nov 22 unless a deal is reached.

Minority view that may piss u off: the 1987economy is not the 2025 economy. Reagan was wrong: targeted tariffs made sense 40 yrs ago. Let’s not be so desperate that we laud Reagan and his flawed policies (that caused pain) because what he did in a different context supports our view 4 decades later

Trump is lying about the $130 million donation to pay the troops. Of course, when his lips are moving, it’s a dead giveaway he’s lying. Oh, and because there are 1.3 million active duty military, the “donation” is only $100 per person. Trump is not even good at lying, despite all the practice.

www.nytimes.com/2025/10/24/u... this is a provocation with no substance. Trump wants a reaction to create a “what are they hiding” vibe. Ignore this & it goes away. Anyone can “monitor” an election. So what? I’m going to “monitor” the Dodgers vs. Blue Jays. It doesn’t mean I’m playing shortstop.

The $40 billion Trump is giving Argentina is enough to extend health care subsidies for one year and end the shutdown. Trump= corruption (not America) first.

This is a take-one-for-the-team moment. Our country is dying, and Jack Smith knows it. He’s asking to testify publicly, so you know he’s got receipts. Doing this paints an even larger target on his back, and he's saying, "Fuck it." Go Jack!

Trump’s demolishing of the WH is just bricks and mortar. It can be rebuilt. The destruction he is wreaking on our society will not be so easy to repair. It won’t be repaired prior to enormous disruption, pain and, sadly, death all of which will dwarf the pain of the loss of the limestone and plaster

Trump’s America.

So, the next time there’s a Dem President, states should sue the feds saying the law requires citizens get fully paid health care and sufficient food for children to satisfy the recommended caloric intake. And the President should direct DOJ to settle the case and pay the money.

MSM characterizes the pardons of Zhou and Ulbricht as pardoning crypto execs. Most ppl’s eyes glaze offer at the mere mention of crypto. But the pardons are of money launderers who used the latest tech. It ain’t about crypto. Ulbricht laundered for drug kingpins and Zhou for terrorists.

For sense of scale, the abomination that is the. WH “ballroom” will be 2+ acres. It will be the size of 2 football fields, including end ones, side by side. It is almost twice the size of the main ballroom at the DC Convention Center.

The Democrats are so frustrating. The message is simple: “if you redirect the $40 billion you want to give to Argentina to ACA subsidies we’ll end the shutdown.” All 260 Dems in the House and Senate should say this one sentence and nothing else.

Jesse Waters’s mother sounds like a good, solid citizen www.aol.com/articles/jes...

Fraudsters & miscreants gonna commit fraud and be miscreants. At a time when most ppl have no confidence in govt or equality under the law, Trump commutes Santos. After pardoning J6 traitors. And right after the Nov 2026 elections he’ll commute the pedophile Maxwell. No shame; no accountability.

Bolton is undeserving of support. He probably mishandled classified docs for his own enrichment. Trump targeted him, and he should and will raise that in his defense. But he will get more due process, and have more rights, than the thousands he advocated should be killed as mere collateral damage.

Chris Murphy has morphed into Bernie Sanders. Sort of…But good for him.

Meanwhile, Texas college students (18 & 19 years old) were expelled at Abbott’s urging for “mocking” Kirk’s death. Both were in public, so-callled “free speech zones.” Texas Tech and Texas State.

JD Vance can whine all he wants about how the Dems are hostage taking bc of the shutdown. But he voted against a Bi-Partisan deal to extend the debt ceiling in 2023 just because… has the msm called him out on this?

Trump & Mike Johnson are more concerned with the security “threat” posed by millions of Americans peacefully speaking than he is with the Qatari government, a known funder of terrorism that practices Sharia law, having a military base in the US. Qatar will have F-15s with live ammo on US soil.

So, the same guys who whined incessantly and refused to wear masks to protect the health of others in the community now insist on wearing masks as they brutalize others in the community.

Can Bondi name one member of this “organization”? Can she name one terrorist act allegedly committed by any person on behalf of “antifa”? Pointing out racist comments by Charlie Kirk don’t qualify as a terrorist act.

The outrage over Johnson’s refusal to seat Grijalva is well taken. But don’t forget that Abbott has delayed the election in a Dem seat in the Houston area by 8 months. One might get the impression that these guys don’t support democracy.

Bondi’s behavior at the oversight hearing is of a piece with Kash Patel’s behavior and that of ICE. They understand, or perhaps have been told, that they will face no consequence or accountability for their behavior & contempt & violence towards those seeking accountability is encouraged

Why do I think SCOTUS will find a way to strike down prohibitions on discredited “conversion therapy” even though they allow states to prohibit abortion?

Trump rolls out the red carpet & supports murderous dictator Putin’s claim to territory. He gives $20 billion to an unpopular corrupt government in Argentina. But he refuses to meet w US Dem leaders seeking healthcare for Americans and cuts $30 billion in infrastructure for the US. America First?

The Times’ anti-Mamdani bias has reached absurd levels. This headline should be: What Happens When Wealthy Interests Resist Change: Portland offers a glimpse www.nytimes.com/2025/10/04/u...

Trump is a hyperbolic manifestation of the transactional ethos that prevails in the US. We are an unprincipled nation. Mega churches have, for decades, focused on fundraising, not on the hard work of taking action on the “word” of the New Testament. The GOP exalts wealth & violence & lies for power.

Does anyone doubt that if Colin Powell was Chairman of the Joint Chiefs of Staff that Hegseth would assert he was a “woke” DEI hire and remove him?

Perhaps a good place to start would be with Ellison disclosing all of his communications w the Trump Admin related to the purchase of Paramount and his stake in TikTok. From there, we can release the Epstein files and the Homan tapes.

Ted Cruz: “Politically motivated violence is wrong, We should not be putting language out there that inspires madmen.” Trump: “I hate my opponents” Cruz: [crickets]

I contacted Sinclair advertiser, ambulance chaser Mike Slocumb(Sloscum?). His response, in part: “I will continue to advertise with Sinclair. Jimmy Kimmel was a no talent loser who spewed hatred towards President Trump just about every night. He then lied about Charlie Kirk’s murder.”

Alito, in Rome, claims religious liberty is under severe assault globally and “Christians” should be concerned. 1. Hindus, Muslims, Jews, Budhists, Etc, should, implicitly, be unconcerned. 2. Wow, THAT is what he thinks is the problem for SCOTUS to solve.

Release the Homan tape! Thank you for your attention to this matter.

Perhaps because MSNBC obeyed in advance, we let them off the hook for the ridiculous firing of Matt Dowd. Meanwhile, Dowd’s former msnbc colleagues drone on about Kimmel and rightly so. But not one has mentioned Dowd & their credibility suffers because of that. MSNBC motto: $>principle.

A lot of us on blsky fromDMV. Take 5 minutes. Let LOCAL channel 7 (WJLA) advertisers know they lost your business bc they fund censorship. Watch 7 news to ID the local sponsors. Ch 7 is Sinclair’s flagship. Their batshit crazy corporate right wing is not the DC community. But only if we tell them

If you want to make a difference as Nexstar and Sinclair silence speech, watch their station in your market to ID the local advertisers. Then email a few of the advertisers and let them know you wont be patronizing them due to their funding of the station. Takes just a few minutes; very effective.

If you live in the DMV, understand that channel 7, WJLA, is owned by the right wing Sinclair. Sinclair is leading the attack on the 1st Amendment and pressured ANC to cancel Kimmel. You should let them know how you feel about this. Head of programming: [email protected]

This is how The NY Times chose to frame Trump’s efforts to lie, disassemble and whitewash US history. Both siderism at its worst. Ironically as it describes an effort to restore fact as the central component of historical narratives. www.nytimes.com/2025/09/17/a...

www.nytimes.com/2025/09/15/u... This details how Trump & Witkof took a $2 billion payoff from the UAE so the UAE could get the chips they desire for AI development. UAE did NOT provide assurance that they would not share the chips with their close ally, China. Trump literally selling out the USA.

There’s no case against Soros. But even if they could try to contrive something, Trump’s statements are so Prejudicial as to make a conviction almost impossible.

Trump said he would “find each and every one of those who contributed to this atrocity.” Now that it appears Laura Loomer and Nick Fuentes may be the “contributors” can we expect he will persecute them? Asking for a nation yearning for normalcy.
