I may have to get a bus ticket to DC. I hate punk threats.

Who is letting it happen? What are 5 steps that can push it back!. Lots of bitching and finger wagging on Blue-sky, but we all need tangible suggestions for action. Most folks here are citizens. Our votes haven’t produced creative leaders, so other than hitting the streets, what?

Holman backed off in several later interviews. They all know they will get their asses kicked when the try to prosecute after their reality TV bullshit, macho threats. They are So Bad at this. Incompetent to the core.

They can’t and won’t win. This isn’t Germany and it isn’t 1938. Citizens and the Constitution will prevail.

Solid idea. Everyone on Blue-sky should take your lead. No bitching without a suggestion for forward action. Including myself in that….

He is so obviously mentally-ill. He has a death wish, for all of us.

This moronic, conspiracy pushing psychotic won’t be happy until we’re all dead from easily prevented disease. Isn’t it obvious to all that he is mentally ill?

Thanks for giving them an alternative.

But I still don’t see the point in attacking them at this point in time. Every person who turns on Trump is one more person to form the wave that will push [them] back. It is counter-productive for the moment.

Stop now. Resolve to fight until your last breath or kindly stop your whiny doom speak. This country has looked a lot more hopeless in past years. Nazis had a rally at Madison Square Garden at one point. We are stronger than this bunch of morons.

The real insurrectionists, Trump, Hegseth etc. have been squirming for this moment since J6. Problem is, this isn’t the moment and everyone can clearly see it.

Well put. Strange times. One way or another, we’re not letting the goons and Orcs take over. 100 years, 1000000 small cuts, we are preserving the American ideal and the Constitution.

We are not gonna let these goons overpower us. Fuck ICE and this secret police bullshit..

Fuck that. The government serves us, not the other way around. We knew this was coming. I can’t say we are prepared - there is no organization. But we are ready to take the fight. We are a citizen government-we won’t let this happen in America.

Of course not. That is the pretense. Trump talking=Trump lying.

Why though? Is there only one way she is allowed to be?

A lot more hate than she deserves. Come on people, folks can have different opinions. Where is your tolerance? You know, home of the free and all.

She is hardly running in the same direction as Fetterman. She is smart, capable, and has been holding this administration accountable. She also has national security background, so lacking for most Dems. Libs better drop their ideological litmus test or do you want to lose another election?

Interested in your take here. Do you think the “left” or maybe “anti-Maga” (Who is your “other side”) will take up arms? No single group has really coalesced. Seems like a bunch of rando libs. and independents have purchased arms but is it a “side”?

Hard-core MAGA will start their shooting war at that moment. The imagined civil war could look very different than most of us considered.

Break the two party system. Give Independent voters the same clout as the two party voters. They are the largest voting block.

Rank voting, electoral college reform (or destruction), break the two party system.

Well Trump would never have won if not for Citizens United, so certainly there is a lot of dark, oligarch money stirring the shitstorm. But I don’t think there are more heads. No one else has Trumps weird, lizard appeal to this weird “coalition” of greed-heads, opportunists, and racists

No words. Journos need to ask about this everyday until this administration is (hope beyond hope) driven into the sea. What is the policy? The objective? Who are they punishing? Who do the want to kill (meaning victims of disease)? Knuckle-dragging, regressive simps.

Of course.

We need to find a way to strip health care from these fuckers every time they touch citizens health care.

Thanks for that. Assuming it is verified, it is a bracing and troublesome stat. Why?

The funniest part of this is that Trump is trying to compel them to build iPhones in the US. This is state economic planning so stupid and counterproductive that Mao would love it. And Maga hates commies???LOL

It’s hard to describe any of this ridiculous and under-qualified cabinet by superlatives, but Kennedy is out of his freakin mind and perhaps the most dangerous of the lot. He is very quickly destroying an already shaky health care system in America.

I have a high regard for you, but why even state this? You know this Congress will NEVER pass this act. It’s a whole new world since the time it was introduced. It’ll be a long long time before we get back to a point of equilibrium.

Dems. lost in swings states with independent voters (the biggest US voting block). So while Dems. maybe failed mobilizing the unmotivated sideline voters, not motivating “supporters” is not the reason they lost. This post is self serving and doesn’t dig in to the real meaning of the loss.

There have to be at least one or two constitution-loving patriots within the Republican ranks? Right? It is stunning how far they have fallen. For those of us old enough to watch them go from the party of Reagan to party of Trump, it’s stunning.

They are working under the assumption that, as Bannon says, they will rule for the next 100 years. They do not fear any consequences - look how the last 100+ days have gone. We have to make that assumption wrong - how many days do we have left to do it?

Well sure the Constitution is clear, but do you really think this SCOTUS won’t flip it in the next couple years with a different case and roster? I’m holding the elation and applause. They can’t be trusted.
