If you don't like Musk trying to crash our economy, it's pretty easy to stop him. Just treat Musk as they did Anthony Fouci back in the day. Talk about how much better deals Musk makes than Trump does. How Musk would make a way better president. Trump's pettiness would take care of the rest.

You could have renamed CNN and MSNBC Trump is bad and FoxNews Trump is good channel. Same with the parties. Trump is good party, and Trump is bad party. He's gotten a trillion dollars of free publicity, while no one can name a good alternative outside Bernie. We need to change that like now.

It seems everyone went out of their way to avoid saying "working class" and instead said "middle class." But working class is not a dirty word. It represents 60% of all voters, the ones who are living payday to payday. I won't vote for another person afraid to say "working class."

A woman has been arrested for making threats to healthcare insurance people. Now she'll get all the care she needs and then some. She's in the system now. I'm not saying people in the system shouldn't get all the care they need. I say everyone should, not just people who can afford it.

I'm not seeing the change that needs to take place in the Democratic Party. We lost. Instead, let's highlight good candidates who will work on the actual people. The fact that CNN and MSNBC are dying is a good thing. It will limit the influence of those executives who care nothing for our problems

I think the country just might be ready for something different and not controlled by the 1%. Not sure it's possible, but I'm GenX and if I can change, anyone can. We'll know by what candidate they put up in 28' Another Clinton lacky, and I'll pass.

It's ridiculous what we have conditioned ourselves to tolerate. There are people who get between us and our healthcare and make money off of it. I had no idea the extent of the profit people made on top of what sick people paid for treatment.

Imagine that. Blue Cross Blue Shields decided to roll back their announced plans to limit the time they would pay for anesthesia. I admit, I didn't pay that much attention to how bad the insurance companies (needless middlemen) have become. They fit right in with all the other monsters.

Sad that a man was killed in New York, and I feel like popping champagne; I can't afford it, of course. My healthcare is United, by the way. They are the biggest. They have so much money in politics (Dem and GOP equal, it seems) that they made 361 billion in profits in 23' and much more for 24'.

Did you know that for the money wasted for the failed Democratic election cycle you could have given 1.6 million people 1,000 dollars for food and clothes. I think that would be more effective than running ad buys on a loop in Florida. We need to work on the Democratic Party from the bottom up.

There have to be good candidates out there? It's a pretty big country. Surely, we can find someone who isn't in the pockets of billionaires. There has to be more than Bernie out there. We need to shut up about the terrible right candidates and focus on the good left ones.

I've had a twitter account for as long as I can remember. But I've never posted on it. I've posted more here in less than a week than I have twitter in my whole life.

The Democrats took many children out of poverty... and then put them right back into poverty. The democratic lawmakers should have screamed nonstop until it sunk in with the rest of the country. But they are so adhd that they can't focus on anything for long. That needs to change right now.

I guess it's important to talk about Donald Trump. But that's all anyone has done since 2015, and where has that gotten us? Let's try something else. Let's prop up good candidates that really want to work for our needs instead.

So my Dodgers got Blake Snell last night. Now if we can get Roki and resign Kike and Teo, we'll be ready to go.

I think we're going to be hearing the phrase working class much more than ever. We're seeing network news fail, so more and more, YouTubers and podcasters are how people get their news. It's usually slanted, but at least it's not slanted from big-donor perspectives.
