The DNC is a dinosaur of dead ideas & paradigms, ineffective & impotent. We need to reinvent the party with real progressive action, infused with the ideas and leadership of a new generation. The 2-party system is enshrined in our constitution, so a 3rd party isn’t the answer. We have to reinvent.

I’m guess the ray of hope would be that it will never pass peer review? But with the decimated NIH and FDA and health and human services, will it matter anymore? Fantasy as evidence.

If you know a single individual who is living here with pending citizenship, please advise them to not put their name in ANYTHING. The regime is telling everyone to “register to help the process.”
