It’s Tuesday. There are 357 days until the midterm elections. Trump tells struggling Americans they’re full of it, the White House celebrates the Dem surrender and Ghislaine wants out.
I’m beyond heartbroken at this point. Now it’s about survival for those of us that demand the very basics; food, clothing, shelter, and dignity. Trump and Republicans want us dead. Weak Democrats nailed the coffin shut. Schumer is cosplaying as a leader, telling us he’ll continue to fight? Some of us will be dead so it no longer matters. Betrayed is how I’m feeling.
Note Two: Whoa! Whoa! Whoa, there, Adam! Leaving the democratic party and becoming independent is NOT the same thing as tilting at windmills like starting a third party. Many folks, like me, have been hanging on for a long time waiting for the dems to show some backbone. The backstabbing by the Vichy Eight was the last straw. FTR, Indies can still vote.
Yes indies can still vote except in a closed primary state like mine. I vote in every election. That's the only reason I'm hanging on to my dem registration. We have to work to get rid of these Maga light dems! I call them cowardly corporate coddlers. They are more interested in wealth and power than they are in we the people💙
I can understand that, but I can still support primary candidates with donations and volunteering for their campaigns to help them win. That's not enough for me to continue standing by a party that doesn't stand by their own voters.
I am fucking furious at the Spineless Eight. I called each and every one of them and told them they might as well have been in that stupid AI video of the FatFelon shitting on all of us. WHY THE ACTUAL FUCK WOULD YOU CAVE TO AN EXTORTIONIST?! If you're "so worried" about your constituents, donate your fucking salary to the food banks in your district and help them hold the fucking line. Goddamn scabs crossing a picket line are better than those pieces of monkey shit.
You know, it isn't just party leaders stuck in their ways. I went to protest on Saturday at the local House MAGAt's office and these "organizer" old ladies told me to shut off my Fuck the Fascists playlist because they were going to have their chorale group sing protest songs. "Wow, I said, "is the barbershop quartet up next? That will really rev up the crowd...not."
Last one by this group of Dems I'll attend. I mean, if you can't handle Eminem's "I'm Not Afraid"...
It's so weird because the SNAP fight was about to land at the Supreme Court and the law would have clearly been on our side and would have alleviated that one point of pain (or 42 million points of pain) from the equation. Why did Schumer allow/facilitate this cave right before what would have been a win?
I agree; we won the elections on Tuesday and it sure seemed like we were making some headway and then these worthless spineless schmucks pull this crap.
Sigh. My 90 year old father announced to me yesterday he was getting $2000 from Trump. First I told him that he really needs to turn off Fox “news”. Second I explained that wasn’t happening. And this is how they suck them in.
Boycott all media that puts any of the drumpfy mouthpieces on the air. They are telling everyone that up is down, and red is green, and 347 million people are not seeing what we are all seeing. Turn away and don't support them. MAGA Mikey and MAGA Scott Bessent are making the rounds gaslighting us with their propaganda while they are absconding with the money in the Treasury.
You are doing the work for the trumpanzees by criticizing the Dems ending the shutdown. I think that’s the worst thing to do right now. The GOP is exposed. If they continue to stay with their cruelty campaign, they will get what they deserve and it will be plain as day.
I didn’t sign up for a cult. I’m going to criticize people who sell us out. You keep being afraid and you’ll keep getting sold out. Oh they’re exposed now? How wonderful. That will change everything!
Look, just because 7 Democrats (and 1 Independent) screwed the pooch the other day does not mean that ALL Democrats in the USA suck and you should now vote for the couch in 2026. If you do that, you are letting MAGA win and you know it. It's what happened in 2024.
Criticize Shaheen and Durbin etc. all you want, they deserve it. But please do not imply that all other Dems are scum too.
We are alll mad, and won't forget the ones that caved. But, let's not forget that during these 40 days GOP was exposed for what they stand for. They refused to help people. They took pleasure in inflicting pain. I believe a lot of people woke up during these shutdown. We are not done! We still have a lot of work ahead. Keep the faith! Love you both, Adam and Sam.

I'm waiting for him to crow about "bipartisanship" because that's all he seems to care about.
I hope there are a ton of democratic socialists in the midterms. I am just about done with these MagaDems.

Hang tough, peeps!

You should ask your father how he spent his doge check
Absolutely he SUCKS‼️I will never ever ever waste my vote in NY anymore! Both Schumer and Gillibrand must go! Time for new
and better progressive leaderships not someone who caters to corporate greed
Your mention of Jasmine Crockett completely lacks context and is completely misleading. You make it sound like she’s lost her shit.
She is concerned because DOMINION WAS PURCHASED BY A TRUMP ALLY. And that they will fuck with the machines to rig the election.
She also WISELY told states to NOT purchase the new machines.
Oh, and Dominion has been rebranded as “Liberty Voting Systems” or some such MAGA nonsense.
Jasmine is totally on top in understanding the threat.
Not suspicious at all! She hasn’t lost her shit - she’s pointing out the obvious.
We could call him Cuck Schumer - just remove the "h". That seems much more apt.
And don't call mar-a-lago an "orgy palace" - it's a pedophile/rape palace.
But it *is* an orgy palace.
An orgy of greed, selfishness and criminality.
Oh, and fuck those Dems every which way but Friday.
Boycott all media that puts any of the drumpfy mouthpieces on the air. They are telling everyone that up is down, and red is green, and 347 million people are not seeing what we are all seeing.

Let's put them out of business.
Dick Durbin sucks and I told him so. Because he's not running for re-election he ought to have held firm; he didn't. He sucks!
You are doing the work for the trumpanzees by criticizing the Dems ending the shutdown. I think that’s the worst thing to do right now. The GOP is exposed. If they continue to stay with their cruelty campaign, they will get what they deserve and it will be plain as day.

People who act the way the Vichy Dems did deserve to be criticized. Only the MAGA party refuses to allow dissent.
Look, just because 7 Democrats (and 1 Independent) screwed the pooch the other day does not mean that ALL Democrats in the USA suck and you should now vote for the couch in 2026. If you do that, you are letting MAGA win and you know it. It's what happened in 2024.

I think we should just chuck Chuck out of congress.
Schumer can go to hell!
