Jasmine Crockett: "The problem is that Americans thought it was okay to take a full fledged criminal and make him the President of the US and then they want to act aghast when he does criminal things. Let me tell you, we have a thug in charge of the US and if we don't wake up we may not have a US"

I honestly believe our most powerful position in a toxic time that feeds on cynicism, apathy,& despair is to genuinely care and act for a better world.
Cynicism is our enemy. We should check it, incl. on the left. It’s not intellectually superior. It’s the virus they’re trying to infect us with. NO

do you enjoy knowing that when you deposit money in a US bank, you won't lose that money? nice, right?
it's because bank deposits are insured by FDIC.
i don't know what FDIC ever did to these people, but apparently it too is now on their blow-it-up list:

AOC is a regular person who got into politics for the right reasons. That kind of authenticity resonates broadly. It’s why she did so well with Trump voters in her own district. Pat Ryan, Angie Craig, MGP, and many others have a similar appeal. We need more of that, not less.
Just hit me why AOC is so good and brilliant at being the adult in the room with all the trashy losers making terrible choices around her. She used to be a bartender.
