Radical centrist news junkie and trauma-bonded political spectator since JFK's assassination in my youth. Know enough history to know what we stand to lose. Hopeful realist, because there are no alternatives. We need another Roosevelt, R, D, or I!!!

Hello, all. Thank you for following me. I’m having a tough time catching up to my followers, but believe me, I won’t stop until I connected with all my like-minded peeps. We will keep fighting the MAGAts and eventually we’ll win. Stay tough.

They're using fear to bully you into compliance. Fear of losing your job, your savings, your Medicare/medicaid, your rights, your freedom. They're using fear to bully our allies, to break our alliances and promises. What do they have to fear? Nothing so far. That needs to change.

Tom Homan can’t find enough illegal immigrants to deport because they fabricated the ‘crisis,’ so now he’s just gonna spend all his time attacking AOC.
