my kingdom for an elected official who will stand up and defend the fact that the government employs people to test wastewater and send old people money and keep an eye on the bears in the park and make sue the people that scammed you

This "old" person has rehabilitated about 300 violent youth in career as mental health professional. They are working, contributing members of this society. I've earned my Social Security & look forward to the day I can retire.
At what point are we gonna start asking, hey with all these cuts, what are you good for then? Why am i paying you? Seriously, why are we paying this fed gov now?? And if the dems “cant do anything” well gosh, i cant afford to pay ya. Sorry.
Absolutely none. They are completely useless. They may as well go work in the Trump White House or just stay home until the midterms. They are absolutely forbidden to lead resistance or to build opposition.
It means unspooling the sticky cocoon of anti-government lies that Ronald Reagan started spinning around America 40 years ago, immobilizing us like a spider's prey. The web is woven thick around us now and no one wants to do the thankless work of freeing us from it.
Heritage Foundation's first version of Mandate for Leadership aka Project 2025 was given to Ronald Reagan in 1980. He put much of it in practice; it formed the basis of Reaganomics and his social policies.
Why is it that most of the people I can picture advocating for government as a force for improving people’s lives are fictitious characters from Aaron Sorkin shows?
The Democratic Party is spineless and nothing but talk. They are just as guilty for sucking the blood from the American people. No one in congress should be a multimillionaire. No one in congress should be there in their 70’s. No one should be in congress for their entire lives.
please do get mad at me for using hyperbole to describe the utter fecklessness of the neoliberal Democratic Party that is a super good use of your energy tonight
There's so much low hanging fruit to attack Dems with. Going with shit like this is a much bigger indictment of the out than them, which is really saying something.
There was a brief moment between the 2022 midterms and "they're weird/not going back" where I felt the Dems finally got it, but it vanished so quickly.
I mean, of course it did. It threatened the livelihood of all those neoliberal consultants! Think of all the damage to their bank accounts!!! *screams*

Satisfied now?
That's not what I said.
I think you're misinterpreting things.

Elected government officials: this mf has a point
Bash: you ARE the government…
Why is this such a hard thing for them to say.
Something, something...boy who cried wolf...something, something.
the Dems WANT the brutal destruction of our democracy, because they think that it'll be like an endless vacation for them
oh, but they have to remain blameless in it, or else who's going to give them money when they rattle the donation jar?
