Sorkin interviewed countless #’s of CEO’s on CNBC during the 24 campaign. When he asked if they had concerns regarding Trumps authoritarian tendencies, almost everyone responded the same way, “well you don’t need democracy to make money”. Pretty much sums it up as to where we are.

They basically ignored the troll

Vile can not describe the level and depths the regime will go to denigrate those who disagree.

He was drawn in to vote for TFG because he promised to lower grocery prices. Perfect example of FAFO!

Of course CNN reports this shit with a straight face.

Very few will actually fully participate. They will make a few cameos on stage & then dash out as fast as possible using a bull shit excuse. It’s not just Congressional Dems, this includes current candidates, state legislators, mayors & school board & county execs. Sorry it’s just the truth.

My son is LAPD & he has told me the same thing about NYPD cops complaining about the chances of him winning. BTW the blue line tentacles are long, the big city PD’s have been holding the line but they r enough red hat diehards looking for any excuse to break for MAGA. My kids words, not mine.

Excellent synopsis. Kay was the ultimate outsider, but was wise enough to realize the reality of that life.

At what 31 years old, that guy is delusional. 4yrs w/a team option for 1 more yr would be more than generous.

America is on the fast track to permanent dictatorship. If this is the best you can do to prevent this Senator then shame on u & the rest of u brain dead Democrats. This is NOT normal times.

ucb12.bsky.social @ucb12.bsky.social · 12d

When is enough going to be enough. Hey you Democrats in Congress make him an offer he can’t refuse, turn the tables on the DON.

“Have u ever spent time in an infantry unit, son? Ever put your life in another man’s hands, ask him to put his life in yours”?

“We follow orders son. We follow orders or people die. It’s just that simple. Are we clear”

“Yes, sir”

“Are we clear?”

“Crystal”

Wrong Senator, Virginians want
-The rule of law & the tenets of the Constitution to be respected and carried out.
-Schools & Colleges to not be subjected to EO’s & demands.
-Federal workers back on the job.
-Fair wages, Medicaid, opportunities for all.
-Abigail Spanberger elected to be Governor

Don’t hold your breath Bill. They have neither the inclination or the fortitude to standup for anything unless their handlers approve it and even then it must pass the “we don’t want to offend anyone” test. If u gave these guys a gold bar on a silver plater, they would turn it into a shit sandwich

Soy is considered a seed oil therefore it’s a non starter in MAHA world.

U do understand that a lot of this comes from Evangelical Protestant think. From Calvinistic thought thru the Prosperity Gospels and Positive Thinking, it’s all centered on the individual & not the collective. Why would they have any compassion for you when it was all your fault.

Hilarious! At least this guy uses the right verbiage….”Trump & Republicans Government Shutdown”. I would go a step farther and say “The Fascist Party’s Government Shutdown”. Of course that’s a bridge to far for Kaine & the rest of the Democrats

ucb12.bsky.social @ucb12.bsky.social · 18d

Typical Democrats, the list of grievances & wrongs is long so they hang their hat on a single issue. They fall into the trap every time.

ucb12.bsky.social @ucb12.bsky.social · 18d

Man when the shooting war starts I’m sure these two dumb shits will be hiding in their backyard bunkers.

ucb12.bsky.social @ucb12.bsky.social · 18d

Once again the Dems walk right into the trap. Let Fascist own the shutdown & all of the Big Bill issues. Stop saying “no one is asking for HC for illegal immigrants”. Expose the Fascists & tell the public, “no illegal immigrants are eligible for Govt supported HC, Trump is lying to you”.

ucb12.bsky.social @ucb12.bsky.social · 19d

How many times r u going to say that? Knowing damn well it ain’t gonna happen. Guess what Mr. Kinzinger when u wake up tomorrow AM, TFG will still be there, I think I have said that everyday for the last 8 months.

ucb12.bsky.social @ucb12.bsky.social · 21d

Mr Kristol we know your a pretty smart guy why be surprised by the Jeffries praise of a corrupt politician. Let’s say it out loud, we r here because this is SOP amongst the privileged and powerful of all stripes.

ucb12.bsky.social @ucb12.bsky.social · 22d

Better get with the program, police departments around the country r in on it too. It’s called blue payback for the “defund the police” campaign.

ucb12.bsky.social @ucb12.bsky.social · 22d

Oh btw according to a certain unrepentant former Republican we can’t call this fascism, it’s just the darker side of democracy. I guess the famous “First they came for…”, will change that foolish narrative.

ucb12.bsky.social @ucb12.bsky.social · 23d

Hey look at it this way…, even a blind squirrel finds an acorn from time to time. This is good news but here’s the rub I’m sure there where multiple incidents over the past few months just like this one that no one recorded or even saw. That’s the real shame.
