I read and collect books.
Anti-fascist.
Biden is considering pre-emptive pardons for people who criticized Trump, in case Trump goes after them. First off, I don't know if a criminal government will recognize pardons. Second, why is this a thing? It's almost like we are expecting a fascist regime to take over that will crush dissent.

The 2024 election shows us that people are more likely to believe someone on TV or their phone vs someone at their front door they can interact with.

The only influence on our elected officials should be us citizens as individuals. No money involved. Political power must be the same for each of us regardless of wealth.

Woke= awake to current reality. Anti-woke= sleeping, dreaming of a past that never really existed.

Has anyone actually read the complete list of people Trump already pardoned & their crimes? I have. Every damn one of them. GTFOH w/your both sideisms & false moral equivalencies. People are sick of that old BS. I’m so tired of our hand-wringing weakness & refuse to participate.

I just want to ask Trump voters: what possible good do you think will come out of a Trump Presidency?

Their answers would tell you a lot about them.

It feels like Trump has declared war on the world. Including us. I think the only exceptions are billionaires who he likes, like Musk and Putin.
This is what happens when you give a sociopathic adolescent with a grudge ultimate power.

Money is not a great equalizer. Political power must be equal for each person regardless of wealth or position or any other factor.

Alexander Vindman is a patriot. Elon Musk, himself an oligarch, is drunk on power and out of control.

Democracy itself has no advocate in national government or media.
Bernie, AOC, Meidas Touch...they talk but there is no unified organization. The Democrats failed us because they don't want to give up that donor money.

Today is Thanksgiving. Let the people in your life know you appreciate them.
And your dogs and cats.
"I am thankful for the people and dogs and cats in my life that I should be thankful for."
Let's move on to the next holiday.
Thanks.

I like Bjork in Icelandic. I can't understand it, but I like the way it sounds. It makes me happy.

I guess there's a tipping point where the population is mostly idiots and your democracy becomes an idiocracy.
Then, when that happens, it's easy for the villains to take over.

I can't live without coffee. I may have to move to Columbia. From a Vox article about how tariffs will impact us.

Republicans say they believe in smaller de-centralized government. But their plan is to put as much control under one person as they can: judicial, executive, and legislative. And get rid of the posse comitatus act.
This is the opposite of a balanced limited government: It's an authoritarian state.
