This is more important than ever!!! The seams are coming unraveled on the current administration, and yet... where is the Democrat's plan to govern after trump sh!tshow v2? This is why I am an independent.
Democrats need to think BIG. When this administration blows up, there will be a time of Great Change. Having no plan for that moment would be unconscionable. Make a Project 2026 plan and publish/promote it. Start now, sell the vision, and do the work. Please.

There can be no justification for a society that values wealth over humanity. The divide is less about R vs. D than haves vs. have-nots. The oligarchs own the politicians that make the rules that grow their fortunes at the expense of the have-nots. This is not sustainable. # of have-nots >>>> haves.

Tucker Carlson agrees with a guest on his show who says, “It turns out I think the story we got about World War II is all wrong… one can make the argument that we should have sided with Hitler.”

I hope there are accurate records being kept of every ICE, FBI, Federal Marshall, etc. who participates in unlawful raids so every one of these motherfuckers can be fired and charged for their crimes.

With the amazing @petebuttigieg.bsky.social as VP.
I know nobody cares what I think, but i just have to say BRAVO to Gavin Newsome @governor.ca.gov. Finally, we have a leader who understands the gravity of the moment. Given that he is ACTIVELY RESISTING when I see so many Democrats fall short, he would have my vote for President.

'Willful stupidity' is a societal problem. Those who deliberately resist fact-based learning hurt all of us. The impact of 'simple stupidity' is practically the same, but it can be corrected with a willing mind and opportunities for a quality education.

I love @gavinnewsom.bsky.social for his pushback on MAGA idiots, and especially saying that he will redistrict if Texas does.
But if he really wants to help save our country, he should do it NOW, regardless of what Texas does. Offense, not defense.

Because nothing says Democracy like re-writing history. All is well. There's nothing to see here, folks.
Look, Trump is who he is. He’s a pathological liar. He’s incapable of shame. He’s a fascist. Does no good to call him out. It’s time to call out the fascist’s enablers - all those who bow to & cave to him. Shame on you @smithsonian.bsky.social. Shame on you for lying about American history.
Under pressure from the White House, the Smithsonian has removed Trump from the impeachment exhibit at the History Museum.
The exhibit now says that “only three presidents have seriously faced removal,” referring to Johnson, Nixon, and Clinton.
The exhibit now looks the way it did in 2008.

ICE is offering $50k bonuses to retired officers to come back and kidnap & disappear people.
$50k to participate in tyranny and oppression.
$50k to hide your face and attack hard working immigrants.
This is what Medicaid and food assistance was cut for.

2. State Farm had $5.3B net income in 2024. Billionaires do not care about us

Only 19% of Dems approve of the party at this point.
That’s not because we have all of a sudden changed our mind on Dem principles or policies.
It’s because we are so damned scared and so damned disappointed in a leadership team that simply does not appear up to be meeting the moment.
