I was told by Dem leadership there is a "chain" (of command?) to communicate with the party.
I hate this tiered party of "the people".

Anything to get that casus belli and the Insurrection Act.
AIPACβs dominance in Washington is difficult to reconcile with a future where Americans stop dying in distant wars.
Systems follow incentives. Expecting otherwise is like asking the sea to stop being wet.
The ruling class can do what they wish to our persons. This isn't what this country is about.
We are sinking whole ass warships because we can't hold these predators accountable in any meaningful way.
What are we doing, America?
If you are upset only because he didn't ask congress for permission, you may be the AIPAC puppet.
Remember when a Republican Congressmonster coerced a staffer into an affair, causing her to turn to self-immolation from the shame.
Sextus Tarquinius would be proud of what we are becoming.

VERY DISTURBING - GIRLS IN DANGER
The teen girls at the Dilley Center are being kept separate from everyone else, and no one can see them or check on them.

But if you accept the obstacle and work with what you're given, an alternative will present itself. Another piece of what you are trying to assemble. Action from action.

Please tell me Trump did not call into C-SPAN with an alias to complain about the SCOTUS.
Hey Indiana, I know we said we had to make like all the highways tollroads for revenue.
Well, we are paying for a stadium that we won't have access to, as the public.
So that's great.
So we are releasing everything on aliens?
Anything to keep pedos from justice.
Watching J.D. Vance act like he is the guy with the plan is laughable.
You are where you are because of rich friends, not good ideas.

The VA is inarguably getting worse and worse with this admin.
Your compensation and pension will be reduced by the cost of your prescriptions.
Uncle Sam's Global Vacations broke us. Just hold up your end of the bargain, unc.
Justice and law are mutually exclusive now that the Epstein class has de facto immunity.
Following sustained pressure from @CommonDefense, Democratic lawmakers are signaling opposition to the Senate DHS funding bill.
Veterans have been clear: no more blank checks for ICE.
Itβs time for accountability, not more enforcement.

This is how the Indiana/LP county Dems introduces their candidates to the people, behind a paywall...
They want $50 just to hear them pitch their campaign? Yikes.
Thought experiment:
What would J6 have looked like with I.C.E.'s budget?

Take care that you don't treat inhumanity as it treats human beings.
Trump's argument for nationalized elections is that the states are agents of the federal government.
Doesn't seem very "states' rights" to me.
But we know how the fascist politics.
βYou could leave life right now. Let that determine what you do and say and think.β Marcus Aurelius, Meditations on the River Gran, among the Quadi.

As Zeno was told, and as will always be the case, you will not know wisdom until you begin to have conversations with the dead.
Pick up a book. Any book. Perspective will enlighten you.
