Plan to sustain myself on schadenfreude for the foreseeable future. That and not forgiving anyone who got us into this mess.
I won't be forgetting, and I certainly won't be forgiving.
Excuses need not apply.

Leftists are gleeful over someone who enacted more progressive policy than anyone in their lifetimes, being diagnosed with cancer.
They think only old people can get cancer.
For society’s sake, I hope they have the chance to learn how wrong they are. Soon.

Sad to see that Val Kilmer died at 65.
I've loved him since Real Genius, and he was both a good comedic and dramatic actor. I know he had a lot of health issues, but still too soon.
My thoughts are with his loved ones during this time. RIP.

Bernie didn’t get the nomination because the Democratic primary electorate rejected him. It wasn’t Obama, the DNC or some secret cabal who conspired against him. He was a shitty candidate who didn’t connect with the Black and Brown base of the Democratic Party. You know this.
You can always count on Obama to spring into action when it's a real emergency -- like keeping Bernie from getting the nomination. And certainly, the Clintons will show up for any lucrative speaking engagement. But you can't expect them to lift a finger for something as trivial as a fascist coup.
While I greatly appreciate AOC and Bernie Sanders barnstorming against the meanness, lies, and ineptitude of Trump/Musk, I have to wonder, where are the Obamas? Where are Biden & Harris? Where are the Clintons?
This is an "all hands on deck" situation.

"Give the power to the states" was also the pro-slavery argument in the 1850s -- and the pro-segregation argument in the 1950s.

I will just reiterate -- even though doing so has long since become pointless -- that keeping these current lunatics out of office was an entirely sufficient argument for voting Dem up and down the ballot. People who didn't do so should feel bad about themselves.

Disagree about Bernie.
He's ruined politics for Dems. He's ruined a generation with what it takes to get things done in politics. Unrealistic expectations. Meltdowns. Attacking Dems instead of working together. Accepting racism & misogyny.
He's not helpful and he's extremely self-serving.

Why lie?
Democrats were as far left under Biden as they've been any time since at least LBJ. Student Loan Forgiveness, raising children out of poverty, expanding healthcare, strengthening unions, environmental protections...
So why are you lying? Dems did NOT tack right under Biden. THE OPPOSITE!

Hakeem Jeffries' job is not to fight. It's not to scream on TV. It's not to lead marches and get knocked upside the head. His job is to hold his caucus together and keep them on code. He's done that --he even had people recovering from childbirth and surgery flying in to stay on code.

And yet when Harris/Walz ran on literally that, they got creamed in the polls.
Because swing voters chose not to listen to them and instead listen to anti-trans Republican Smear Campaigns.
In fact, they thought Dems focused *too much* on trans issues, a thing entirely driven by Republican smears!

Trump and Vance needed to create an incident to provide a justification for their pre-planned abandonment of Ukraine now, then separation from NATO in the near future. That’s what that was all about, and that was always the way a second Trump term was going to go.
