I've been at my cabin deep in the Colorado high country. I heard Trump had won another term. Maybe he's learned a little bit about 'working democracy' during the 4 years he had to reflect on previous failures. Thankfully Biden left him a really good economy. Now I've got to catch up.

Kamala Harris began her 2028 campaign yesterday and as I expected, it was simply a continuation of those meaningless platitudes. She is the reason we lost against Trump - she needs to announce that she is 'not' running for President again.

Say it ain't so - Neal Katyal's law firm capitulated to Trump's wishes? Is nothing 'sacred' anymore where money is involved. I would have bet my grandsons' inheritance this would never happen - deeper than any rabbit hole I've ever been in...

There is a god!! Currently resides in Wisconsin!!

Might there be a pathological disorder associated with the desire or acceptance of authoritarianism as a form of government?

It could be the case that Speaker Johnson, who received his law degree from Louisana State University, missed the Constitutional classes regarding impeachment of federal judges. I'll have my grandson send him a synopsis...

The 'job' of our Democratic congressional leadership, Schumer and Jefferies is now clear - 'lower expectations' and convince Americans: 'We're trying'. I ask my employees, are we simply striving for mediocrity now? It appears that's where we're headed - Democrats.

MSNBC is tanking, firing some of their best like Alex Wagner, Medhi Hassan and others, but hold on to those who have 'nothing' to contribute to news, unless it's racist. Al Sharpton is a charlatan - always has been - never missing a photo opportunity.

I must not be keeping up! Just read that Harris is leading in the polls for the next Democratic presidential nomination! As if we didn't sufficiently bad news with Trump and Musk - now I've got to deal with déjà vu - someone please wake me up from this nightmare!!

Who at MSNBC decided that Michael Steele was 'the' person to anchor early evening news. Alex Wagner was fired so that Steele could get a spot? Steele's lack of intellect shows dramatically. Had been a requirement at MSNBC that you demonstrate enough skill to speak extemporaneously.

I like James Carville. He played a role in promoting Democrats and what we 'stand' for. He is now simply occupying space and time with superfluous platitudes. It's obvious that maintaining 'some' relevance is important to him. No one else seems to share his conviction.

Whitehouse Press Secretary Leavitt, with a BA degree on a softball scholarship is, I would say, out of her lane arguing Constitutional law. I know she's young - my 7 and 10 year-old grandkids know more about the 3 branches of government. She has no clue about authorities of the federal courts.

MSNBC is undergoing some 'big' changes. I'm happy to see Reid gone - tribalism, identity politics and, yes, even racism (from where I sit). True 'colors' were exposed when she expressed her disgust at a Latino being selected as Senator to replace Harris

I was looking for 'signs-of-life' among our Democrat House and Senate leadership. Looked everywhere - nope, it's not there. They're out doing what they do best - looking for money for the next cycle. "Keep my seat at any cost", is the mantra. I'll just use this nymph right here.

"Projection" is my vicarious winter visit to places in the Colorado mountains where my son and I spend days riding, fishing, hiking and ignorant (of 'everything)!! Parked at 12,000 ft. evel, staring at Stewart Peak at a small portion of La Garita Wilderness.

@djrothkopf.bsky.social One of the few 'voices' in the town square that is accurate and welcomed...

Hadn't been sure about Jen Psaki until she pointed out what other 'liberal' outlets and broadcasters have kept at arms length - the Democrats missed a huge opportunity when they failed to invite AOC into the "House's" Boys' Club!

@mehdirhasan.bsky.social Why would one of America's great intellectuals and truth-teller be surprised at the number for folks following him. He (we) deserves far more than that...
