Ron Campbell @roncampbell.bsky.social · 03/09/2026Someone with a better grasp of politics correct me if I'm wrong. In 2006, facing similarly grim polls, George W. Bush busied himself raising money for GOP candidates but stayed away from the spotlight. Was Dubya really smarter than Trump? 000 0
Ron Campbell @roncampbell.bsky.social · 25/08/2026Congressional leaders get beaten up on this site - unnecessarily in my view - for failing to represent party members. Their real job is the care and feeding of floor representatives -- congos and senators. Ordinary voters don't count. /1 100 0

Ron Campbell @roncampbell.bsky.social · 19/05/2026Question for the lawyers: How can DOJ legally tap its settlement fund for the $1.8 billion "settlement fund" when the underlying lawsuit was dismissed with prejudice and the judge wrote that there was no mention of a settlement on the record? 020 0

Ron Campbell @roncampbell.bsky.social · 03/02/2026Americans live in fear of each other. Armed, masked federal agents roam the streets of a major city, killing citizens and spraying tear gas at families. Question: Who really won the War on Terror? 010 0

Ron Campbell @roncampbell.bsky.social · 13/03/2025Schumer is the Democratic Senate leader for two reasons: He raises lots of money from Wall Street and he takes great care of the tender egos of Democratic senators. He is not "our" leader. He is the Democratic senators' leader. They. Do. Not. Want. To. Fight. 030 0

Ron Campbell @roncampbell.bsky.social · 04/03/2025Unlike DOGE, the IG's follow the law. They don't abruptly and illegally halt congressional appropriations or lawlessly shut down entire agencies. So they had to be fired. 010 0
Ron Campbell @roncampbell.bsky.social · 28/02/2025For Bondi and Bove, this is a win. They are driving out federal prosecutors who believe they work for the US instead of Donald Trump. They will be replaced by loyalists. If a Dem is ever elected president, the rot at DOJ will be deep. 011 0

Ron Campbell @roncampbell.bsky.social · 23/01/2025The Dems in Congress can't win votes, at least not often. But they can harass, they can stall, they can hold the GOP accountable. They can raise questions about nominees like Hegseth, as Warren just did. That's the job of an opposition party - to make the majority's life miserable. 020 0
