I don't think being good at math is the thing that makes people look the other way at abhorrent behavior
I think the belief by the powerful that "people will put up with many things if you are excellent at math" is incredibly revealing in terms of understanding How We Got Here

So I’ve asked, “Where are the parents?” and I think I’ve got my answer.

Democrats should not vote to enable Donald Trump to be a dictator.
Now that Dems have capitulated, at the very least they should now make every future extension of funding contingent on Trump following the law. Any lawbreaking must be met with: No more votes from us, period.

My exchange with @brianbeutler.bsky.social on that point:

US senators will say anything. "Standing up to donald trump gave him more power." No it didn't. That isn't true.
This is what bullies want you to think, and it's why they get stronger

Billionaires are bad for business. That isn't a political take. It's logic. If i have a billion dollars, i am buying things for me and my family. If you gave a thousand people a million dollars ( BECAUSE A BILLION IS A THOUSAND MILLION) they would buy things for them and their families.

Again see how this turns into “generally bad for everyone” and then a reference to the 99%
Isms and phobias and others and theys are generally bad for everyone.

Yet some think they may escape the badness because they think they are in the majority when, in fact, the conservative fascist movement is destined to divide and to divide and to divide until there's 1% rule and 99% divided.

Why do you need a psychic when you're worth 1.7 billion?

Like... that's the type of money where you can make your future into whatever you want it to be.
But you're gonna pay a psychic to tell you what you want to hear?

The wrong people are rich.

There's nothing billionaires are more willing to pay for than people who will only ever tell them what they want to hear, no matter what.

is it good when the dems in the house of representatives start calling for the senate to be abolished
I don't know what the Senate is going to do. But if they do in fact fold in exchange for nothing, they will be living up to past performance. To expect the Senate to carry out the will of the American people is to misunderstand why it was created in the first place.

Government is shut down. Chaos in airports. 42 million going hungry. 24 million face skyrocketing healthcare costs. Economy in turmoil. And the president of the United States is in the Fox broadcast booth calling plays for a football game.
