Both things can be true. Age is the issue and so is corporate fealty.

We need mandatory retirement ages and term limits for every government office. These 60, 70, and 80 year olds holding us hostage before dying of old age in Congress, the Supreme Court, and the White House don’t have to live through the horrific shit they’re doing to us.

Taking away access to healthcare and jacking up insurance premiums has a guaranteed outcome:

PEOPLE ARE GOING TO DIE.

Shutting down the government until Dems make sure the GOP can’t backstab them is the bare minimum to keep Americans alive.

Longer term,

WE NEED UNIVERSAL HEALTHCARE.

There’s several rumors circulating about different places that are still helping vets stay safe. Once I confirm them I’ll share to help others out!

As a disabled army vet, I get my care through the Mather VA in Sac.

They just told me I couldn’t get my Flu or COVID shots.

One of the nurses said this was due to RFK Jr.’s new CDC guidance.

Are you having issues getting your vaccines at the VA?

If I had a dime for every time, someone got upset that I’m skipping the line.

There’s a reason why Democrats keep dying in office of old age.

Our politics is literally those hermit crabs swapping shells.

Stifling voices against genocide is why the Dems have zero young people showing up anymore.

A massive problem in business and politics is succession planning.

People get power, they start to believe they are special, and they put no effort into helping the next generation.

The end result is dying of old age and a mad scramble from leaderless organizations that perpetuate the cycle.

Demonizing empathy and giving everyone a gun is a recipe for mass gun violence.

And he voted not to move forward with impeachment when Trump bombed Iran without Congressional approval because Ami’s an AIPAC stooge

The GOP is run by a bunch of pedos, grifters, simps, and incels who hate humanity and want to destroy the planet.

Any Democrat trying to “reach across the aisle” right now to work with these fascist weirdos needs to retire in disgrace.

Republican politicians are a bunch of sniveling weirdos who can’t win a popularity contest to save their lives.

That’s why they use bureaucratic fuckery and minority scapegoating to tip the scales.

Men with fragile egos have to flex their power to make up for their impotence.

Almost every elected Democrat is pro-Israel and pro-genocide while less than 8% of the democratic base feels the same way. When our elected politicians refuse to listen to our demands, we need to replace them.

Fascist strongmen with fragile egos can’t take a joke. This country is built on freedom of speech. Boycott the cowards who are complying in advance.

The things Israel does to Palestinians are a test run for what the President and ruling class will do to us.

The working class (anyone who doesn’t own for a living) has far more in common with the besieged people of Gaza than we ever will with billionaire ghouls like Elon Musk.

2/ They’re fighting harder against Zohran Mamdani than they are against Trump and they still support the ongoing genocide. A better future is possible, but only if we take the power back from the establishment and start prioritizing working families.

1/ Regardless of the California redistricting outcome in November, the most important thing is that we don’t let corporate Dems convince us yet again that they’re the only answer to the problems THEY created. They gave up on the working class, leaned into racism, and opened the door to fascism.

🎉ENDORSEMENT ALERT🎉

We are excited to support @chrisjbennett.bsky.social in #CA06 against AIPAC's Rep. Ami Bera!

Chris says: "Ami doesn’t mind children being blown up or starved to death, despite being a pediatrician, because he loves AIPAC money. Let’s show him we wont let him get away with it."

ICE is just the HR recruiting department for slave labor camps. We need to end slavery in this country once and for all. No one should profit from forced labor, regardless of whether a person has committed a crime.

Netanyahu’s atrocities are not limited to Gaza. He has also unleashed terrorist settlers in the West Bank who attack civilians and recently beat a young American to death.

Even Trump’s ambassador, Mike Huckabee, called this a “terrorist act.”

NO MORE MILITARY AID TO ISRAEL.

The only good #billionaire is a former billionaire. These people are not our friends. They would hunt us for sport if they could get away with it and that’s what they’re doing right now with #ICE. Help me make government work for all of us, not just wealthy ghouls. #politics #sacramento #california
