The more I think about it the more I think that Patty Murray could occupy a similar role in our fight against the oligarchs as Ben Franklin did against the monarchy. She has the most experience in the Senate and she knows how to operate the levers of power but prefers operating behind the scenes.

@aoc.bsky.social and @pattymurray.bsky.social should create an Opposition Caucus in the House and Sen., respectively, made up of Dems whose focus is to fully oppose the oligarchs running the country. Separate themselves from the quislings, so we know who to support. Remove the stench of the cowards.

I guess if we no longer measure the increase in CO2, then climate change disappears. Getting revenge on the research facility that monitors CO2 in the atmosphere. Since the 50s.

Patty Murray and AOC need to create an opposition caucus made up of dems whose purpose is to oppose the oligarchs. That way we know who to support. And can primeary those not part of it. She is the most senior Democrat and the 4th on the chain of command for the leadership. I hope she uses that.

Any woman who expects to have a seat at the table for Trump needs to think agains. Removing women, especially from the military, is a goal.

I love pre-opposing the oligarch. Got a 2024 Ford Mustang Mach-e GT EV about 3 weeks ago. I love it. Much nicer than a Tesla. And the GT is great for an old fart like me. Lots of safety/luxury add-ons .Not as many miles on a charge but the suspension and steering are so nice in Unbridled mode.

Murray, along with AOC, Crockett and others needs to leave the Democratic caucus and form a new group (ie Labor?) The Whigs fell because they couldn't fight the slavers. The Dems will fall because they can't fight the oligarchs. Better to get out now, form a new party and see who the people support.

The Whigs couldn't fight the slavers so they were broken by the Republicans who did fight. Many in the Democratic Party are unable to fight the oligarchs. They need to be broken by AOC, Murray, Crockett, et al to form a new caucus/party that opposes. Do it now so that by 2026 it'll be all theirs.

They pissed off 30% of the military by denigrating MLK Jr and Black History month. Add in women, by firing female generals. That's another 18%. And the 6% that are LGBTQ are also being targeted. Now add the 6% that are asian. 60% of the military has a reason to leave at the earliest opportunity.

There are many Democrats who want to fight, who oppose Trump. Better for them to split off now. Vote with the Dems on most issues but always oppose the oligarchs. Do it now. It'd set up 2026 for a real change in our politics. We are transitioning to the 7th political party system, Now's the time.

More than leadership, we need a real split between the capitulators and the oppositionists. Schumer should not ever be part of any party I support.Keeping them together in one party will jusy miuddy the waters. Split them now by splitting the caucus and see which one wins the American people.

There needs to be a change in Democratic leadership in the Senate. Patty Murray is the only leader who has shown some real fire in her efforts to stop the GOP-CR. We need to see the Democratic Caucus split over this, with the fighters leaving the Democratic party if necessary to form their own.

Why is it always this way? Lincoln had to wait over 3 years to find any military leader who would fight. The Munich Agreement did little to slow the Nazis. Now we see the Democratic leadership capitulating. The government is already shut down for many. With the GOP-CR, he will do even more.

I'm afraid that the current Democratic leadership is not made for this moment. They bring a speech to a knife fight. Like the multitude of Union Generals who would not fight. Or the leaders who claimed peace in our time, they may simply need to be replaced with those that will fight fascism.

I'd love to know the value of Tesla that would make this happen. It would show a real impact of the people against oligarchs.

Fetterman is a quisling. Doing the fascist’s work by finding excuses to capitulate. Coward. History will not be kind.

After seeing the rush for MMR in Texas (so great that they are running out), I expect people will be demanding rapid access to the mRNA vaccine against the avian flu. Another pandemic will change everything.

It's a good thing Lincoln didn't give up when he couldn't find a general who'd fight. Or that Churchill didn't give up because the US stayed neutral. Don't give up on the Dems. Find the ones who fight and help them convince the others. It always takes the winning side a long time to start fighting.

It's going to be so easy to point fingers when children too young to be vaccinated (usually less than 1 year) end up in pediatric ICU and then dying. And when children lose their hearing. Permanently. Or when they lose their sight. Permanently. Because RFK Jr has done this before. In American Samoa.

RFK Jr needs to be aware that parents as a whole are not ust going to listen to his idiocy. When a disease outbreak hits, they want their kids protected, not fed Vitamin A.

Yes, the DCCC (the fundraising arm of mostly moderate House Democrats) actually used the word 'fucked". So much for decorum ;-) Glad to see they're showing a little bit of spine. We need more of this. The current chairperson is Suzan DelBene who I helped elect. She has long been a moderate.

It is this attitude that kills any real opposition to Trump. Instead of targeting the GOP lite Dems they want to drop the whole thing. No real fight in these people I suspect.

Come on. There has to be some recognition that Dems are not all the same and that GOP lite Dems exist. That they do does not negate all the work done by other Dems who are fighting. Go after the third way Dems not the whole party.

Being woke and DEI are,for Republicans, synonymous with being Black. They will remove any mention of racial animus. Because they have no empathy.

OMG. Idiocracy is real. “Plants crave Brawndo”. No, transgenic mice are not transgender. That would be similar to saying the Dept of Transportation is about transgender. all of these people must have gotten like 205 (200 is the lowest score) on the English part of the SAT.
