This race featured some of the most despicable rhetoric I've ever heard in a campaign. There should be an understanding amongst the media to never again place a microphone in front of Cuomo. Nor will I forget Dem leaders either. Spit in their faces if they dare pawn 'blue no matter who' ever again.

So overjoyed tonight, just beside myself. ๐
I grew up in the same neighborhood as them. Mario and his wife Matilda were generally thought of as very decent people. How they produced garbage like Andrew and Chris I'll never understand. Didn't think the level of 'vile' coming out of Cuomo during this campaign was even possible.

I've never heard this before. It's actually the most interesting and moving version I've ever come across. The changes from the standard version we always hear are ingenious. Considering I'm feeling anything but patriotic lately (to say the least..) I rather enjoyed it. Thank you for posting.

05.07.2025 23:20 โ ๐ 1 ๐ 0 ๐ฌ 0 ๐ 0One of the worst lies liberals ever bought was that doing things the "right way" would cause meaningful change.
I'm willing to get arrested for doing what's right (been there, done that).
But if you think the revolution will be fought with peaceful protests... you have no reverence for history.
A) Just being alive right now in the U.S. can lead to 'a knock on your door by masked, unidentified men'.
B) Tim Cook's bending the knee to Trump tells me the reality may be different than what is represented in that article.
C) If it comes out for Android I'll take my chances to help others.
Hats off to Joshua Aaron for a very brave stand, and perhaps the smartphone app of the year. Hoping for an Android version, checked, as of today its only for Iphones. If it comes out for Android it goes on my phone same day. ๐

Doing it when the vote whip was already a done deal felt more like the denouement of a tragicomedy. Emailing for donations right after, despicable. Unimpressed.

A Tennessee man pardoned by President Trump for taking part in the attack on the Capitol on Jan. 6, 2021, has been sentenced to life in prison for hatching a separate plot to assassinate the law enforcement officers who investigated his role in the riot. Just another one of Trump's 'heros.'

Then those who don't appear to have white skin. Then anyone who has a bad word about Trump. This is Trump's Gestapo. They must be stopped.

By the '28 Pres election it will extend to anyone who disagrees with Trump, anyone who speaks out against him. That's where a next Civil War will be fought.

Sorry, but I find your logic kinda screwy ๐. Either he helped the cause or he didn't. The only thing Jeffries did here was say, 'look at me'.
I don't get why some are celebrating Jeffries over his hours-long speech. The time for high voltage oratory was months ago, yet day in and day out Schumer & Jeffries remained mostly silent. Doing it now when passage of the bill was a fait accompli was little more than theatre that changes nothing.

Bottom line, this is what Schumer caved for on cloture, this is where keeping gov't open got us. Now go listen to Monty Python, "Always Look On The Bright Side of Life".
Today is the 'finale' of Schumer's decision to keep the government open a few months ago. This is where it got us! I'm a NY'er, and am ashamed to say I voted for this do-nothing loser. He's so past his "Best By" date it's a joke. He and Gillibrand must go!!!
*New blood* or say adios to democracy.
Elon Musk, piece of garbage extraordinaire, who took jobs away from 1000's and uses his wealth to buy (or rig) elections, now complains his beloved Republicans don't 'care about the people'! ๐ฟThe insanity just doesn't stop๐ฟ.

Unfortunately, our Dem leaders have become so schooled in the art of worthlessness any hope of them saving us from Trump is a loser. We need to send them all packing.
