“Pose ominous threat?”

We don’t know that yet, do we ?

Let’s see what he can do.

That’s what we do in every other sport.

What will we do if he actually improves our lives?

To hobble him from that end is to injure ourselves.

Power for the sake of power hurts the populous.
"Some critics have been, justifiably, critical of the state of Dem messaging. But one thing is clear: Trump, Musk, and their acolytes have already handed Dems massive political opportunities, even as their plans pose ominous threats to the nation and its citizens." -- @davidrlurie.bsky.social
Trump begins his lame duck term pre-hobbled
Thank you, Elon Musk.

Perhaps second worse could really mean second FEARED.
Patel should never be confirmed. Period.

Ranked as the 2nd worst nominee. Send letters to your Senators today!
Tell your Senators: Oppose Trump's dangerous pick of Kash Patel for FBI Director

Witnessing wisdom right here.
when i was a few minutes younger i thought it was 9:33 a.m. eastern time. and maybe at one point, that was the case. but part of growing older is finding enough humility to let go of some of the things you once held as true

I care not for his personality but why try to impede him ?

Let him do his thing.
If he does improve our lives .. good.

If he doesn’t the other side gets back in.

Why would we want him to do badly ?

That only makes our individual lives more difficult.
Kennedy took a commanding lead over Patel as most hated nominee, Gabbard is in 3rd followed by Hegseth, Oz, Bondi, Vought, Noem, and McMahon. We are so close to our next goal of 100K letters sent to Senators. Help us exceed it!

Start by telling Senators to not allow recess appointments in general!

Good for you ! Sounds exciting. What led you to this particular field ?
December 31, 2024 at 3:02 PM
Yeah, I think both sides are leery of her.
December 31, 2024 at 2:56 PM
What will we do if the next Trump administration does actually improve our lives ?

Don’t attack me.

It is a serious question.

I’m seeking a constructive civil answer.. please.
Good morning! The last day of the year!

Dan Rather is a treasure.
