An older guy, spending time ignoring that I'm an older guy, and, sadly, failing at the mission. Sure, I have some wisdom, but you'll have to hear a 15 minute prequel story about a topic with vague connections before the actual wisdom is presented.

Hey! Potential new Dems: Here's an idea- DNA swab every official running "detainment camps" then cross check that against the DNA of babies by underage girls.

News flash: Tucker Carlson has not had a "change of heart". Tucker isn't now "reasonable". Tucker is positioning his wants and desires within the GOP power struggle as he sees it. He is every bit the disingenuous, dangerous asshole he was while he was whoring for FOX.

So, Obama weakened his promise of universal healthcare in order for the GOP to get onboard with the ACA. The GOP then took the ACA away from millions of Americans. Congressional Dems: STOP pretending the GOP acts in good faith. Here's your new mantra, "Lucy, football, Lucy, football..."

You know how the press clamors to the "flat-earthers" to get their POV on stories? Yeah, they should treat MAGA and all associated with that democracy killing machine the same way.

Open note to all those (1/3 registered voters) who did not show up in '24. Think of your reason for sitting that election out. Whatever it was, ruminate on it for a moment. Did sitting out help that cause? Don't be like '24, show up this time.

I'm gonna love watching the Cowboys this season. Every screw-up gets a sip and toast to the tRump curse. So far, pretty tipsy games.

Dear Chuck Schumer and Hakeem Jefferies, things are getting bad out here. I think it's time for a Super-Duper strongly worded letter! Use italics! Maybe use a semi swear like "dammit". That is sure to get tRumps attention. We're all counting on you two warriors!

At what point do we realize the Internet is a utility. Let's stop treating it as if it's some sort of luxury. More and more medical interactions are done on smart phones. Just another thing to consider post Nov.

Gosh... Help me out. I'm a boomer, so obviously I'm dancing with Al Shiemers, but if we "control the strait of Homuz" why do we need Iran to come to the table for negotiations? Granted, I get confused easily (see Boomer) but is $6;a gallon gas a good thing? Oh! Matlock's on!

The world's most powerful country being brought to it's knees in under 24 months by the stupidest, non qualified scammer, voted in by the stupidest slice of it's citizenry, has officially arrived. If Xi gets Taiwan (tRump is weak, so he will) he gets TSMC, and US tech is done.

Seriously, SERIOUSLY! The Dems better not wimp out and waste what we are giving them. Stop taking money and start listening to what we are screaming in your jaded faces.

Local note: Mayor Bass has been silent on LAPD moonlighting for ICE. Someone must be shown her her how many Latinos are in Los Angeles.

Payola was outlawed in 1960, so maybe we could that playbook to outlaw this Congressional version? Or will this dark money disgrace be a thing that just drifts away if the Dems win in Nov?

Gift Idea: If you know someone who didn't bother to vote in '24, there is a great book you could give them. It's titled "Thanks, Asshole", and it's a very short read, which will appeal to their goldfish like attention span. Page one reads, "Thanks", and page two reads "asshole."

Dear ex-MAGA voters currently on the "I'm sooo sorry!" tour, Until I see all of you clogging the halls of Congress demanding your Reps and Senators to impeach, then prosecute this Orange nightmare, and his family, your claims are as empty as tRumps promises you fell for.

So, I'm seeing more and more about the "boomers" being the real problem right now. Fair enough, but try to remember: alot of us have been fighting this BS since the Reagan era. And not many of us sat on our hands in the 2024 election. But 1/3 of registered voters did. A mystery, for sure.

As you look around the clusterfuck we find ourselves in, don't just blame Donald, but "thank" Ronnie Reagan for kicking it off in the first place. The GOP has been this bad for a generation.

Steve @strummer71.bsky.social · 21/09/2026
The concerning part of tRump kicking out journalist, isn't the rejection. It's the idiotic belief the corporate media has that there is value in a tRump press room. If this press was around in '72, Nixon would be on Mt. Rushmore.

Steve @strummer71.bsky.social · 21/09/2026
Day one: tRump pardons all Jan 6 perps. That wasn't being generous, that was testing what we will do when he pardons ICE for the murders they've committed on live TV. The water boils slowly.

Steve @strummer71.bsky.social · 21/09/2026
First thing for a Dem controlled Congress, figure out how to put controls on the Presidential Pardon. ICE kills whoever they want because they KNOW they literally have a "Get out of jail free" card.

Dear Joe Walsh, Tim Miller, and all the other "Never Trumpers", Kindly fuck right off. You helped create this. You were are the REASON tRump is here. You were in the GOP when keeping your base uneducated and scared was the playbook. We've been fighting your shit FOR YEARS.

HEY! tRump is an asshole. We know that. His admin are dipshits, we know that. STOP FUCKING FOCUSING ON THEM!!!!! They thrive on that. Fuck them. Focus on WHAT WE WANT! Know what you want your Rep and Senator to stand up for. Stop playing their game, change the rules!

Post midterms, we need to remind the Dems WE put them there, not the Corporation that are holding the "cash cannon". There had better be retribution for what this corrupt admin has done to ALL OF US. "It's time for unity -" No, fuck that. It's time for crimes to be prosecuted.
000
Steve @strummer71.bsky.social · 18/09/2026
If we do good in the midterms, remember: this insane posse in charge was able to turn the price of eggs into what we have now. There CANNOT be business as usual from the Dems. The "business" needs to be burned to the ground, and addressing American's needs must come from the ashes.

Steve @strummer71.bsky.social · 17/09/2026
If elected: I promise Congress will come up with a universal healthcare plan that they themselves must use. I promise the American public will have the same work schedule as the House of Representatives. If employees don't like it, talk to the Reps they own. Also ice cream Thursdays. Vote Steve!

The Ed Sheeran tour (or what's left of it) is a good example of avoiding to engage with the obviously right path doesn't mean your insulated. Looking at you, 1/3 registered voters who sat on the couch in '24.

Local bit: Dangerous, distracted driving throughout the Valley is not new. The lack of police to address this issue is not new. The desire of the city council to spend our tax money on vanity projects instead of our community is not new. But we can renew in November.

So, we're giving Isereal $2.8 billion worth of missiles to keep the genocide going. Repeat, they are getting $2.8 BILLION of weapons we paid for. Our tax money. To Israel. To kill women and children. MAGA, is this the America First you were blathering on about?

Florida is projected to experience major flooding 5-10 times more often by 2050, but they cling to the GOP. You can't save a drowning man if he repeatedly punctures his flotation device.
