I’m not sure that replacing the Democrat Party with another party is what we need. We need elected representatives who actually do their job. Neither the R’s nor the D’s have had that for far too long. R’s wrap themselves in the flag and lie. D’s appear to cave. Neither is working! Vote ‘em all out!
Very much in a ‘burn down the Democratic Party and replace it with a progressive party’ mood. Annoyingly there’s no way to practically do that in our system without conceding the nation to fascism, so we need to stage a total takeover from within somehow.

Keep in mind that as well as all the pain and hardship U.S. representatives are voting on the American people, an estimated 50,000 ADDITIONAL Americans will die every year due to the effects of the Big Bastard Bill. Beyond $$$ etc., they’re are saying it’s ok for all these Americans to die.

A good point was made about Jon Ossoff earlier. He has been someone who has consistently supported his constituents and democratic values. What we need to do is start compiling all the details of every representative’s record of service so that we don’t “throw the baby out with the bath water”.

D’s cave as easily as TACO. This is not being “centrist”. This is not having a center, a set of core values you truly stand behind. If done then every representative (D’s and R’s, House and Senate) must feel the wrath of voters just as we feel the pain and suffering from their votes on our backs.

Wow! These are the same states where people are getting $2,000 checks and their 401(k) accounts are worth double what they were when Trump took office!

I’ve read a news story that says Dem’s are ready to advance a package of spending bills along with a short term funding measure in exchange for a “promise” of a vote on extending the ACA in December. Schumer is pictured in the story by Axios. I swear that if these D’s cave at this point I

People need to understand how all this works beyond simple transactions. When Americans don’t have healthcare but get sick or are injured they go to ER’s. By law and morally ER’s have to treat anyone who comes in. Most of us have insurance that
We need side by side Lindsey saying this with him saying they are killing "all the right people". Then it needs to be everywhere flooding the zone.
At least they FINALLY admitted why they refused to negotiate on the shutdown. First they lied and promised Dems they would “negotiate” this, but only AFTER they voted for the CR. But Dems were correct when they assessed that Republicans NEVER intended to extend these subsidies.

I just listened to a video on Instagram that asks an uncomfortable question. One that doesn’t really have an answer in a democracy. The link is www.instagram.com/reel/DQR30jF.... The video is by Joshua Doss. He goes thru many examples of laws or acts passed by D’s that provide people with security

@jojofromjerz.bsky.social has outdone herself! See open.substack.com/pub/jojofrom.... Trump was not lucid for at least 20 minutes, even after someone collapsed 5 feet from him. Think about how long 20 minutes can be. What would happen if there was a nuclear attack, e.g. by N Korea or a lone wolf?

Be prepared!
1. Do you have some cash on-hand for an emergency if one occurs?
2. Do you have sufficient quantities of any prescription medication you and your family members need?
3. Have you planned menus and gotten that food available?
4. Do you have some additional non-perishable food on-hand?
