Thanks Tom a good piece, been thinking there's a need to define that vibe of "establishment" politicians and the gatekeeping that stops getting things done or 'disappears' proposals. I think you've captured it beautifully, sadly and with the edge of justified cynicism it deserves.

Unfortunately spot on.😕 Very good read, however.
Voters were offered a choice between maintaining a system that isn’t working and destroying a system that isn’t working.
They chose destruction.

Yeah....I wish my senator had time to do anything except post stupid remarks on x.🤔
I've saved 148 automated responses from my congressman over 12 years. He's never read one. But I keep documenting anyway,not because I think it will change anything, but because someone needs to have kept the receipts for a trial that will never happen.

I kind of love this man.
Not in a gay way.
In a "I have mad respect for what you're doing and understand your crazy scheme" sort of way.

That's the thing- people are frustrated and angry enough to elect the likes of Trump, and rather than say 'let's make some worthwhile changes that will serve people', Dems have said 'oh-- things are fine... act natural and aim for the center'... I'm tired of losing, and not a fan of the right.

I’ve been missing that community feeling on here so thank you.
The only way we get out of this is community. Each other. There are more of us than there are of them. If we can communicate and plan and gather and march we can win.
