I just know what I’ve seen and heard. I’m no armchair quarterback. I’m frustrated and sad.

My point is only that there is much to be learned from this last election. The democrats can reorganize and rebuild. But it’s going to be a rough couple of year ahead. Cheerleading isn’t necessary

From Wikipedia. The Palmer Report is an American liberal fake news website, founded in 2016 by Bill Palmer. It is known for making unsubstantiated or false claims,producing hyperpartisan content and publishing conspiracy theories,especially on matters relating to Donald Trump and Russia.

The democrats now find themselves in a tough spot. I do believe they are doing what they can. I don’t believe that absolves them from critique.

I completely agree. We are past the constitutional crisis and have arrived at a post-democratic representative oligarchy.

Richard Rorty predicts Trump and why hardworking Americans would be suckered into voting for him; back in 1998.

Statesmanship requires diplomacy. There isn’t much choice in the matter. And while I doubt he can have much effect, I admire his attempt at a pragmatic approach to negotiating.

Fear is a very powerful motivation. Most of the ‘anger’ displayed in the electorate can be traced directly (often irrational) fear. The need for critical thinking, leads back to the case for a solid education. The dumbing down of America has been intentional and ongoing since the mid1960s. Sad.

I'm not even what I'd call highly visible and I've been threatened with lawsuits and had people write my employer to try to get me fired for sharing what I observed during 2020. One of the people who threatened me participated in a version of Jan 6 at the Colorado State Capitol.

From a reader/viewer perspective, I'd think any news organization would benefit from taking a clear adversarial position on the incoming administration. That they are sacrificing that news edge to capitulate feels a lot like the billionaire owners have come to a group decision.

Post something before you start following people. That helps them know you're really "here" and that you might not be a bot. Reposting is okay when it's meaningful, but a lot of reposting just looks like a bot.

In the US billionaires and their corrupt politician lackeys sell the school shooters the weapons then put all the victims into lifelong medical debt, then gaslight them while praising God. All along the way they squeeze hundreds of millions of dollars if not billions from the entire process.

My niece is getting married today. They are doing a full catholic mass. Haven’t been to one of these since my brother (her father) and sister-in-law got married. Looking forward to a great day of love and celebration!

Let's be clear: getting rid of experienced, nonpolitical civil servants in vital agencies and replacing them with MAGA loyalists isn't government efficiency — it's political cronyism and a recipe for corruption. We can and should make the government work better. This isn't how.
