The 25th won’t be invoked, because everyone in 47’s administration is craven and/or cowardly. It MUST be, but is UNLIKELY.

Our best chance to be rid of them all is early ‘27 if Dems take both the House & Senate, and then impeach & find him guilty of treason. Then his entire cabinet can be removed.

Isn’t it great?! I had the distinct pleasure of reading some chapters aloud to audiences at a ren faire several years ago.

I can’t be a politician. ❤️

But thank you for the endorsement

But our people, the American people, descendants of immigrants from every corner of the globe or immigrants themselves, we are a great people, and we have the capacity to be truly amazing.

Flood the zone.

“Make America great again“?? It never really was, although at some points we have come close. On a governmental standard, from a policy standpoint, we are so very far away from greatness right now.

They flood the zone every day with outrage & scandal & destruction; we will flood the zone every day with creation & compassion & building toward a better tomorrow, forever striving for the More Perfect Union, not gazing solipsistically backward at some golden age that never existed.

We flood the zone.

Florida can “teach” (indoctrinate) whatever stupidity that it wants to, while here in Pennsylvania will actually teach the children, the young adults, the lifelong learners FOR FREE, because an educated populous is one of the most desirable things that a nation can have.

Linda McMahon is going to destroy the department of education and public education in this country, which has been a beacon to scholars from around the world for 100 years? Short-sighted, but have at, Hoss!

Texas wants to have a bounty Hunter law, allowing people seeking an abortion to be arrested, their doctors and nurses to be thrown into prison for forever? Shoot your shot. California and the rest can make certain that everyone is welcome to seek healthcare with them inside of their borders.

Texas, Louisiana and Florida want to gerrymander their districts so that only Republicans can win, and that minorities can never have an actual say in their own government? Fine. Do it. So can California, Colorado, New York, Pennsylvania, Illinois, and Maryland, but for the Dems.
October 29, 2025 at 11:06 PM
So we flood the zone. We do everything everywhere. Every issue, every great and good campaign and every pet liberal cause.

This government, rather this clown car of inanities, grievances, bigotry, pseudoscience, hatred, ignorance, narcissism, and greed, has failed each and every one of us, whether we be American or not. Every person on these shores, and in the world, is worse off because of these clowns.

Each state makes sanctuary cities the rule, not the exception, because every person in America, EVERYONE, has certain inalienable rights that are laid out in the Declaration of Independence & in the Bill of Rights of the Constitution.

We institute single payer healthcare. Whether we call it “Medicare For All” or “The Lollipop Guild,” or what have you, we can no longer afford — & haven’t for a very long time — to live with the system that we have. Obamacare was a Band-Aid, nothing more, & even that’s now being taken away from us.

We eliminate entirely the minimum wage (the conservatives will actually love this part!) and institute a LIVING WAGE (the elected conservatives may like this part a little bit less).

Did they get a sweetheart of a deal? Yes they did, but that is only part of the problem.

We raise taxes on the wealthy and corporations, because that is the cost of civilization. We lower the cost of education and raise the funding of it. We make 100% illegal predatory loans and payday lenders.

Let let’s look back a few years when Amazon was holding auditions between different cities to build a new hub. Did they go anywhere out of the ordinary? No. They went exactly where we thought they would go: somewhere that already had good infrastructure and good amenities.

Everybody is always in fear of companies leaving, so they offer them everything in a way to say “please don’t hurt me, Mr. Bully. I’ll give you whatever you want!”

But that never works!

Companies love to have an educated workforce, a trained, workforce, in their immediate area. They like to have the amenities that taxes and a healthy tax base can buy: good schools, paved roads, a robust infrastructure, restaurants in downtown businesses.
