2/passing bills to block, that Trump cannot veto. That’s winning 291 House and 20 Senate seats up for election. I have a basic strategy formulated to do it. It’s exciting. It’s doable. It takes coordinated effort. If you look for a single vote majority, you won’t get it.
The “ultimate” leadership/mgt books were written by Porris and Collins. One key success factor they culled by their study was adopting “Big Hairy Audacious Goals” (BHAGs). The BHAG for Dems in ‘26 should be 2/3 control of H & S. It allows that Congress to negate the Trump destructive agenda by
Mistake to shoot so low. We need 2/3, 20’seats. We should go for it, the cmpgn is much more viable on that basis.
Yep! We need a leader. Jon Ossoff, Chris Murphy and Mark Kelly fill the bill. Schumer doesn’t even know what leadership is.This isn’t snark. He doesn’t. I was thrust into the role of CEO of a public company. I hired a coach who had coached CEOs of $Billion companies to coach me. She was superb.
No. He’s not resigning.
Pikers. FL Repub Sen Rick Scott’s company defrauded Medicare of $1.7 BILLION. Scott took the 5th Amendment 75X. Some of that money funded his cmpgn. as it was handed to him on exit.
2/abt the Trump Pandemic. Kennedy won’t won’t contradict his lies in the future 4-expertise will scatter, some here some to other countries that want it 5-students’ career choices are profoundly affected by what they see in front of them. The replacement pool for the current generation will shrink
Why it is VERY IMPORTANT for Robert Kennedy to Go, NOW: No time to wait until midterms or 2029. 1-he will me a disaster in another pandemic that could happen anytime 2-his current policies and decisions have already caused deterioration in our health 3-Trump told Woodward—on tape—he was going to lie
2/the medal of liberty. This has passed Congress as the highest civilian honor. The Medals of freedom you received are deemed inoperative.
Further demeaning the honor assoc w it. If Dems regain power, they contact all the Medal of Freedom recipients EXCEPT those given by Trump. You tell them that in light of Trump trashing the honor it is meant to bestow, the Whomever Admin is offering to replace that medal with a new honor,
GOOD ONE! Put a star on your forehead for “leafality”
You have such a great speaking voice and manner.
Agree Call his friend Schumer tell him to step down from leadership in the Senate
GOOD Thank you, Congressman. A career to be proud of.
Let’s immediately take Musk at his word. Back to South Africa w Elon!
If you get measles and don’t die, you are still left with a compromised immune system that can take months to a couple of years to restore. By contrast, if you take the vaccine, it has no impact on your immune system. Except of course you get immunity to measles.
You can.
I can’t wait for TreasSec Scott Bessent to be asked abt that number, and time how long his “uh, uh, uh, well well well, uh uh uh…”go on. To have a little fun, first, ask him the percentage of that $8T given directly by countries and which country put in the most”
You can get it. Ask your physician to prescribe it. Check with your insurer if it will be covered. If not, how much it will cost you.
A bit closer to home, my fav “he was a black man” revelation that discombobulates white ppl even those who aren’t very racist is the Lone Ranger was a black man.
Lesson for our times: “If you want to sit around w your students talking, that’s not a movement, that’s a support group” (film portrayal of Ruth Bader Ginsburg’s daughter talking to her) youtube.com/shorts/a_vKu...
Kamala Harris didn’t lose. She didn’t fight hacking.
He’s neither an anti-vaccine activist nor a vaccine skeptic. He’s a Crackpot and should be called that.
Another possibility to explain Trump’s behavior is he’s feigning illness, won’t be available to comment.
If Trump stroked, depending on how they treated him and how quickly, he may have 95% return of function. Modern treatment is to use a device that pulls the clot out of the cerebral artery affected.
Sebastian Gorka who is now Counterterrorism Director worked in Hungary’s Defense Dept, for the Viktor Orbàn govt. Any further questions?
2/clowns were around MAL or Epstein at the time.
The EASIEST question a reporter could put to a Trump defender re: his rship w Epstein, is to ask the defender, “how do you know he didn’t XYZ?” Jungle Boy Gym Jordan said the other day the Blanche Maxwell interview showed “what we always knew”… Really? How had they known that before? None of these
BTW, for those interested, DEI backwards is IED. They want to explode everything ppl have fought and died for to give dignity to everyone
In the biopic of Ruth Bader Ginsburg, the character of her daughter has A KEY MESSAGE for us, today: youtube.com/shorts/a_vKu...
I think Noem is running to be Vance’s VP. Doubt Thiel would allow it.
YES, and the spin that he made his fortune running stock trades for some billionaire never passed the smell test. Sex Trafficking is the largest business in the world. (See eg the film “Trafficked” w Ashley Judd that premiered at the UN
2/tariffed country, Bessent is right. If it is the American purchaser, all fhe world’s economists are right. STOP ARGUING LET’S SEE the financial data. And then hopefully everyone shuts the fck up
I HATE arguments when there is incontrovertible objective numerical provable truth that can be presented. The Regime claims, say $150B in tariffs received. It can’t be “received” unless someone sent it. Let’s see the list of the origin of each wire that in aggregate paid $150B. If it’s the
Democrats had better raise loud and if necessary disruptive objections to Trump committing any troops to combat without approval of Congress. If they don’t, they surrender any claim to moral authority they may still have.
Hmm. Trump also disbanded the pandemic prevention program that had found and isolated 160 novel coronaviruses (same species as COVID) over 10yrs…and whaddaya know, 3 months later we had COVID. Anyone see a pattern here?
2/manslaughter, he might be indictable.
When one has no credentials or credibility, but is pathologically desperate for recognition, one starts by trashing credentials and credibility. Remember, he ran for Prez! His running mate’s credentials: she had studied world religions.🤪🤪 If Samoa has a crime akin to involuntary
One of media’s failures is turning to the same people, with the same limited views of the art of the possible, and using them to comment. Have me on. 15’ and the entire resistance could be energized. No guarantees but I have a plan. Feel free to contact me for an “audition”. I can give references
The terror Trump is feeling is jumps off the page. There there there, wittle Donnie, I know uncle Putie-Pooh said no one does mail-in but even such a wonderful man can be wrong. And voter ID? The incidence of fraud is infinitesimal—you know who discovered that? You did Time for your warm buttermilk
I hate to take a looney tunes episode seriously to dissect it, but it otherwise may not appear as demented as it is: 1-“w/o the TRILLIONS we have taken in”—Trillions? 2-“country completely destroyed”—8 months ago our country was destroyed and we had no military power? What will MSM do abt this?
These ppl are SO BAD. Let me illustrate w another statistic: homicides are down 50%. That’s 3 homicides 3!
Thank you! Great group @czeckmate2024.bsky.social
That’s bcz he doesn’t want to keep Trump farting.
2/could set cred criteria and tell an admin that the person has to meet certain cred criteria.
Yrs ago I had a brief but intense email exchange w one of the Sunday hosts I knew abt having Kelly Anne Conway on after she had claimed “alternative facts” and topped it off w microwave ovens as possible spies against Trump. Their point is they were obligated to cover an admin. My point was they
You know the firedrill: accuse the others of what yourself are actually doing
How Kennedy and Trump can end the mental health crisis: Tell Drs to declare each one of them normal and sane That lowers the standards for normality and sanity Voila! Everyone is now normal and sane. Me tak health crisis over
2/ppl on to discuss it,over and over and over again, what progress do you think you will make:ZERO For example: one of my action items is to get rid of ALL Dem advisers and “strategists” and hire “never Trump Republicans” Not a single person from the “approved” chattering class would ever say that
Ali: while I agree w you even more strongly than you state it, the problem w calling on “Dem Leadership” to fight is THEY DON’T KNOW HOW. If you will have me on, I can lay out what needs to be done and name names of who could do it. If the best you can do is issue exhortations, and have the same
“Democratic Leadership” is the most pathetic Oxymoron ever. JFC
Pope Leo is my candidate for Pres in 2028. A good VP can handle day to day actions. We need this Pope to have a chance to heal.
White America is a very sick, very spoiled, very ugly society. You would NEVER hear any minority talking like that. My parents were thankful as kids to have food—period. And my grandmother used to take whatever remained to even poorer families on her street.
A Dem fr a super blue district, like @jayapal.house.gov , should file a performative bill to eliminate Labor Day as a national holiday. Announce it, and ask for Trump’s and Masturbatin’ Mike’s support. This will be fun.
GET US PROOF!
Ultimate karma would be TX gerrymander invalidated as unconstitutional and violating VRA, but California’s passing muster.
The original sin was not getting to 67 votes to convict him of the impeachment charges. The next sin was not charging him w the OoJ and extortion crimes from Mueller and impeachment 1. That could have happened in less than a year.
WARNING WARNING WARNING more BS Trump says homicides down 50% since troops moved in.”!!!! That’s a reduction of 3. Fckng media swallows their press releases w/o any attempt to provide understanding. @govpritzker.illinois.gov please beware of getting snookered on TV.
Garland and Republicans enablers, and FOX, and the Courts.
He doesn’t remember why he voted against a bill to improve mental health services! Then he says we can’t bring those children back. WTF does the MSM tolerate this crap—instead of getting angry and kicking him out for callousness.
Quite the opposite. IMHO, the response should be “BS, this illiterate monkey has no authority over the Smithsonian and no authority to rewrite history…etc”
Mitochondria: Bobby Kennedy acts like a 5 yo who has learned a big word and needs to show off to the grown ups.
My candidate for Prez.
Maine Oysterman with pearls of wisdom and common sense
2/avoid bankruptcy, we have raised the debt ceiling to avoid it dozens of times, just by a separate vote. -you didn’t have to give tax cuts to the rich; you could have lowered taxes only for the bottom 90%, and raised taxes on the rich -the no tax on tips and SS is very temporary and limited.
TOWN HALL ALERT‼️ Repub talking pts are, if the BBB didn’t pass: 1-the US would have defaulted 2-everyone’s taxes would have increased 3-no taxes on tips, overtime, SS. Therefore, when you attend a Repub Town Hall, take those off the table: “Let’s begin with reality: we didn’t need the BBB to
Missiles? Drones? Or Sabotage?
Probably laughing their arses off every time someone mentions Trump.
Imagine if Dems could take back the senate. (Long odds, I know.) Just the effect on the judiciary alone would be huge. Susan Collins has never been a moderate, and Trump has her vote anytime he really needs it. Maine has a better choice in @grahamformaine.bsky.social. Give him a follow.
3/to Trump and the billionaires boys club, and sell our cleansing cmpgn
2/prohibit Congress from stock trading, construct tough thick guardrails against anyone trying to steal our Democracy, etc And INVESTIGATE the Trump Regime for all its abuses, send arms to UKR to win the war, THAT cmpgn will be a big winner. Big enough? I don’t know, but we could tie all these
I guarantee you if Dems run a small cmpgn on taking back the Senate, they won’t. However, if the set a Big Hairy Audacious Goal, 2/3 of both H and S, they can run a BIG cmpgn that 1-we won’t have to suffer further destruction for 2 more years; and 2-we can start repairs NOW. We can tax the rich,
Voters should say NEVER to anyone seeking office who does NOT hold in person Town Halls.
Very good. I would add the general statement to reduce fear that FDA does NOT regulate the practice of medicine. Politically, it would be a good time to get your state legislatures to pass a law that insurers must cover COVID vaxx.
Go thru the list: 1- he shitcanned the vaxx advisory committee 2-I don’t know abt 2 3-he’s not meeting w Cassidy regularly 4-clearly not giving Cassidy input on hiring decisions 5-clearly no Senate representative on vaxx safety monitoring Most egregiously, he DENIES he made those commitments
Here’s what Cassidy said Kennedy committed to prior to his confirmation vote:
2/place where some serving Dems rec’d leadership training.
A thought Dems have virtually no leadership, in part bcz they don’t know how, they’ve never been trained and have no experience. The bigger problem is they think they do. If I could choose, I would ask fmr Cong and Admiral Joe Sestak or current Cong and fmr Colonel Vindman to lead: that’s the one
2/ held that govt couldn’t use funding cutoff threats to force states to expand Medicare coverage. Bottom line: if they would say “nyet” like the Fed Res Gov did, Trump will back down. He tried to replace the Chief Librarian at the Library of CONGRESS, they told him to butt out.
That is bcz Universities relied on grants to fund major parts of their activities. Legality of that is questionable, and I think Harvard is fighting it. Moreover, Harvard will get its money back bcz it was a coercive contract, invalid under contract law In NFIB v Sebelius (1st Obamacare case) SCOTUS
For the 1000th time, the Smithsonian is not part of the executive branch. SCOTUS has decided that. Art II does NOT grant the Prez the power to write or rewrite history. If one succumbs psychologically by relaying what he “plans” w/o saying he has no such authority, you are obeying in advance
Like I have said before, severe bans on making money off stock trading, and other asset trading, and owning foreign assets or currency, would create a massive exit of Members, leaving behind those dedicated to PUBLIC SERVICE (yikes!) It’s better than term limits.
2/put that to voters: “you want your bourbon industry back, vote Dems and Canadians say they will buy again”
I have an idea to promote a Dem landslide in 2026. Assuming there is a 2026 election of course. Find the states most negatively impacted by Canadians’ boycott. Inform Canadians. Ask if Americans elected ALL Dems in that state, if Canadians would resume purchases. If there is a major YES, we can
Good one!!
😂😂
One important element of their scheme you omitted: they created deficits to make social spending increases unthinkable, their constant refrain was we couldn’t afford X, Y, Z.
4/ paper omitting her name and contribution, a paper referenced by everyone in the field. They offered only mealy-mouthed explanations for omitting her when later challenged.
3/Nobel Prize for their work. In their paper describing DNA, her contribution was never mentioned. When W & C rec’d the Prize, she had already passed away. Nobel Prizes are never awarded posthumously so she would not have been recognized by the Prize but, the outrage is properly over the seminal
2/me the most outrageous is excluding Rosalind Franklin as at least a co-equal discoverer of that molecule’s structure that explains its function and operation. Her XRay diffraction studies clearly showed the double helical model, and we know the information was shared w Watson and Crick who rec’d
I am certain there are many many women who did not get credit for their contributions to science, which is all the more significant because there were so few women in science to begin with I may be biased since my professional career would not have existed w/o the double helix DNA discovery, but to
I don’t want Lisa to resign. She has Repub Gov who would appt a Trump-nut to finish her term. I am going to go out on a limb and say, I think she’s been rocked by the neg reax to her toeing the line on TaxScam. Collins, OTOH, has conned her way to re-elections. Unlike Lisa, she has NOTHING inside.
Whistleblower Law, where are you?
And I would like to sue to insure that this independent reporting gets CREDIT for this monumentally important discovery by having her on all the Sunday morning shows, ie, a “full Ginsburg”
Anyone up for a little vaxx wager? I bet that Trump and Kennedy both get vaccinated for COVID, and Trump also takes the flu vaccine. Both spouses will get both. Uday, Ivanka and Qusay will get both. Anyone interested in the other side of those bets??
Remember when Flynn had to resign from running NSA for lying to VP Pence? Kennedy needs to resign for lying to Senator Bill Cassidy who was his last Senate vote he needed, and to whom he made direct promises he now denies ever making.
To do anything significant, other than not authorizing smth whose funding expires, Dems need 2/3 of both chambers. If they had leadership, they would set that as their “Big Hairy Audacious Goal”, and cmpgn on it. “We don’t have to wait 2 yrs to let the destruction continue, before starting repair”
The Appeals Court for the Federal Circuit handed Trump a way to rescue his economy, w/o ever saying he was wrong—will he take the gift? With no appeal, the tariffs are done. Trump can blame the court But with the tariffs gone, interest rates can be reduced…responsibly(yikes!), reducing the deficit
