@Bix They've been pretending to be on our side so they can compete for those juicy big donor, industry, and lobbying dollars.

We need actual progressives. This "centrist" stuff is lesser evilling us to death.

He failed in his dealings with Putin, Bibi and Garland... Big errors.

Just looked at "Bluesky."

Is that all there is? 🤔

And Dorsey is no longer there?

The trifecta in Washington offers a tantalizing political opportunity for Republicans, opening up a universe of political and policy priorities — from tax cuts to mass deportations to the gutting of the regulatory and federal bureaucracy, along with Trump’s vows to seek vengeance and prosecution of his perceived enemies and pardon those who attacked the Capitol on Jan. 6, 2021.

I'm getting a lot of way too little/way too late vibes about how we got here.

The information was out there but you really had to look for it and the right wingers are nothing if not lazy.

Shocked to see I posted I would never vote again to Theresa. And she responded that she had made the same decision.

I have voted in every election over my lifetime. I wonder how many millions of others (besides the 100M who didn’t vote 2024) have made the same decision.

All of a sudden my rancor towards those who didn’t vote feels disingenuous. Maybe they came to the same decision earlier than I did. Including the young black man who said the constitution is broken.

In a conservative world they probably do not like Beyoncé music, did not know of "project 2025," have not heard of "tariffs," and would prefer not to discuss abortions. Also, there are people who believe the POTUS controls gasoline prices.

from AP -
After a r𝐞𝐬𝐨𝐮𝐧𝐝𝐢𝐧𝐠 𝐞𝐥𝐞𝐜𝐭𝐢𝐨𝐧 𝐯𝐢𝐜𝐭𝐨𝐫𝐲, delivering what President-elect Donald Trump and Republicans said is a 𝐦𝐚𝐧𝐝𝐚𝐭𝐞 𝐭𝐨 𝐠𝐨𝐯𝐞𝐫𝐧, an uneasy political question is emerging: Will there be any room for dissent in the U.S. Congress?

...

trump -
76,058,615 votes (50.2%)

Vice President Kamala Harris -
73,122,138 votes (48.2%)

Do these numbers, with votes still being counted, actually reflect a r𝐞𝐬𝐨𝐮𝐧𝐝𝐢𝐧𝐠 𝐞𝐥𝐞𝐜𝐭𝐢𝐨𝐧 𝐯𝐢𝐜𝐭𝐨𝐫𝐲? When the totals are final he may not even have 50%.
