Supremes Are Off The Rails!

In the 2024 election, Democrats must run on Supreme Court issues. Pull the threads of the current concerns of the American people, and many lead back to the recent decisions made by this unbalanced Conservative Supreme Court. From civil rights, voting rights, gun rights, LGBTQ rights, and personal individual rights to the authority of the federal government to enact changes to benefit the lives ...

It’s All Up for Grabs!

A M E R I C A! Future historians will tell the story of what happened to America but in the present... it's all still unfolding in a blur of confusion. Once the world's leader, our nation is now being dismissed and doubted across the world. While President Biden leads the charge to save the soul of America and to secure the democratic values established globally after World War II, the reputat ...

WHAT NOW?

The MAGA crowd is acting just like the foreign terrorists! Pickup parade of trucks full of flag-waving Donald Trump supporters.   Islamist terrorists in trucks flying their flags.   Not entirely sure that we have a functioning country at this point. It feels more like Afghanistan, where rural warlords exercise their power with defiance toward the central government. And he ...

Dem Unity Imperative!

We really need to hang together for the next two elections. We can now see the scope of the damage done to our nation, from the rampant voter suppression, the conservative-stacked judiciary to the violence aimed toward our very government by the right-wing terrorists. We need to STOP our circular-firing-squad if we're going to save the country.  Our continued nit-picking of our own Party ca ...

BOTH CANNOT BE TRUE!

SCENARIO #1 Donald Trump and his administration are under siege from the "Deep State" in our government, (which includes Trump's own Justice Department, the Judiciary and FBI), to undermine and destroy his presidency.  The FBI is concocting false allegations that the Trump campaign worked with Russians to bolster his chances of winning the election, and spinning Trump's public defense of ...

EERILY FAMILIAR

Having a major déjà vu moment.  The feeling in the national zeitgeist right now seems very similar, and eerily familiar, to the 1990s when Timothy McVeigh bombed Oklahoma City in his anti-government, anti-liberal act of terror.  Pulling on that string of instinct I ask myself, "WHY does it feel so much like that time twenty-two years ago?" I recall the horror that our nation felt when the innoc ...

TRUMP WORD-SALAD

FOLLOWING IS AN ACTUAL SENTENCE FROM THE MOUTH OF PREZ-ELECT TRUMP. And, we wonder why the world is laughing at us! "Look, having nuclear—my uncle was a great professor and scientist and engineer, Dr. John Trump at MIT; good genes, very good genes, OK, very smart, the Wharton School of Finance, very good, very smart —you know, if you're a conservative Republican, if I were a liberal, if, lik ...

American Tribalism

The Democratic Party has to do some major rethinking --- and it has nothing to do with going to the Left or moderating on issues.  It is waking up to the reality that we have no partner in governing, no partner willing to compromise, no partner to partner with in the interest of our nation. We've had a Democrat in the White House for eight years who worked hard to be bi-partisan and to reach ac ...

THEY DON’T HEAR US!

If our countrymen didn’t hear us over the two years of electioneering, then they aren’t going to hear us now. They chose not to listen because they didn’t care, and they are going to choose to not hear us now that their guy won the White House. It’s time for some rethinking on our part. During the campaign we kept thinking that the country could be persuaded by logic and facts, and our logic an ...
