    >> sure both parties are bad. But I hate #Trump, and I voted #Democrat… No, they are both just fronts for Big Money. Between them, they corner most of the ideological bents…

    💯 I have a whole series of examples tagged with #bipartisanGrift, complicity, & connivance with a tagline "NOTHING that is currently happening in the #UnitedStates would be possible without the #complicity and #connivance of the #DemocraticParty and elected #Democrats"

  2. Let’s see…, uh, no.

    The #Trump admin is asking #Congress for an additional $10 million to cover costs related to Freedom 250 events recently held on the National Mall, including a prayer event, a fair & a fireworks show.

    Sen. Jeff Merkley (Oregon), the top #Democrat on the #Senate Appropriations subcommittee that oversees funding for the Mall, said an earlier request from the admin was presented to Congress last week….

    I have not met all Democrat voters, nor all Republican voters. So for me to make any generalizations about them ( ex: some Democrat voters are better than the average Republican voter ), would be an exercise in ignorant prejudice. I can’t judge people based on stereotypes, or media portrayals, which can be very skewed and distorted. What is the “average” Republican voter anyway? Who took this average? It’s just prejudice.

    Let me tell you my firsthand lived experience though, which is a far better indication of truth.

    I am a #whistleBlower against #AccentureFederalServices and the US Department of Veterans Affairs. I had voted #democrat until 2022.

    Then, I was brutalized by police and jailed, 4 times by the #Biden regime, and once by the #Trump regime ( extrajudicially incarcerated, without trial, or due process ).

    All charges were dropped, as I fought in court. I was repeatedly denied public defense in court, though I kept telling the judges and public defenders that I was homeless and food insecure. They never had any reason to arrest me. It was an attempt at whistleblower intimidation.

    This is my account. Please read the PDF, as it contains legal documentation to corroborate my story.

    whistleblower.lovestoblog.com/

    I have been #homeless since 2023 , except for a few months.

    If you had told me that both sides were the same, in 2022, I would have laughed. Now, I believe it.

    Healthcare was complicated and expensive.
    People wanted Universal Healthcare.
    So Obama sold us #ObamaCare
    Now, #healthcare is complicated, expensive, AND mandatory.
    More money for “the healthcare industry”.

    After the market crash of 2008, where many Americans lost their retirement savings, it was #Obama who stopped the investigation into the #corruption behind the crash.

    Trump is a daylight robber, doing terrible things openly, shamelessly, with impunity.
    Obama was a nighttime thief, who did corrupt things by darkness, then sat with you at breakfast, beaming his charming politician smile. Which do you prefer?

    I am in #Japan now, and seeking political asylum here.

  7. Mr. Schertler, Dr. #Fauci’s lawyer, said in statement that he believes that exchange “triggered” #RandPaul’s crusade against his client. But he did not deliver the statement, because Paul refused to let him speak. Sen #RichardBlumenthal, #Democrat of Connecticut, read parts of the statement into the record.

    “The accusations that Chairman Paul continues to propagate are false & disgraceful,” the statement said, “& we will examine all options to hold him accountable.”

    Dr. #Fauci & Mr. Paul have been tangling with one another for years. In 2021, when the senator accused Dr. Fauci of lying while testifying before the #Senate, Dr. Fauci replied, “If anybody is lying here, senator, it is you.”

    Yes, both sides are the same, and they both work for the rich.

    I am now in #Japan , seeking political asylum, and have been homeless for a while, and without medical care. I have had to go hungry for days at a time, a few times, as every NPO aimed at helping refugees, has denied me help.

  44. "... Those upper classes, to rule, needed to make concessions to the middle
    class, without damage to their own wealth or power, at the expense of
    slaves, Indians, and poor whites. This bought loyalty. And to bind that
    loyalty with something more powerful even than material advantage, the
    ruling group found, in the 1760s and 1770s, a wonderfully useful device.
    That device was the language of liberty and equality, which could unite just
    enough whites to fight a Revolution against England, without ending either
    slavery or inequality."

  45. I regularly see posts by older liberals that still lament the loss of what they think was working before Trump. They continue to write as though the economy and government were largely okay and that it was Trump that broke things. That's the problem with the #Democrat Party and liberals in the US, especially the older demographic that were fairly comfortable in their retirements. For them, it worked well enough that they could ignore the fundamental injustices. Their take seems to be "Yes, but it mostly worked. It was mostly stable. We improve things gradually over time. If it hasn't been working for you, just work harder, wait your turn, trust us, it'll get better for you." For these folks the #US as formulated isn't broken and #capitalism works.

    That's the problem of the white middle class. Howard Zinn documented in A People's History that even before the signing of the Declaration of Independence the ruling class were planning to use the middle class.

  48. "When #JamieIsaacson received an application in his mailbox earlier this month to help choose the #Maine #DemocraticParty’s next #US #Senate #nominee at Saturday’s #nominatingconvention, he wasn’t interested.

    If accepted as a delegate, #Isaacson, a 72-year-old #Jewish #Portland resident, would have joined 601 Maine #Democrats at the party’s convention in #Bangor to select a replacement for #GrahamPlatner, the staunch #Israel critic who bowed out of the race earlier this month following #sexualassault allegations, which he has denied.

    Instead, Isaacson sat it out, vowing not to have anything to do with the party that had chosen #Platner as its nominee in the first place.

    “I thought it wasn’t worth my time, to be honest with you,” Isaacson told the Jewish Telegraphic Agency. “I mean, we’ve been blindsided by the #Democratic Party here and nationally, and I’ve been a #Democrat my whole life.”
