So many vets are going to lose their healthcare, their disability and ultimately their lives because of it.

The meetings discussing which VA disability they will target are already happening with PTSD ratings being one of them.

Once they privatize, vets will be forced to buy ins. policies.

When it slows down, run a speed test. I use speedtest.net

Then see if you suddenly stop slowing down afterwards.

I actually had to look up what a "pick me" was.

I stopped with the series some books in.

Yeah, my mental health provider told me that they were pressuring her to release me as a patient because they were using a "they must be getting better to keep treatment" metric.

I finally just walked when the writing was on the wall they were moving her out of the clinic.

There used to be an actual reason for it. Now they are told the same reason but it's a lie.

Way too many.

The meetings to cut VA disability benefits have already begun with certain disabilities being targeted such as PTSD.

They come close just point and yell, "BEGONE SATAN" and when everyone else looks over yell, "THE POWER OF CHRIST COMPELS YOU, THE POWER OF CHRIST COMPELS YOU" as you splash water from the water fountain at them.

Because cops don't want to have to buck other cops and the Feds were always given deference by state, county and municipality cops.

I just move to, "the universe hates me".

Hopefully not that AI video.

Nah. I just forget that I'm old at times. What we did when I was young is no longer how things are today.

My brother and I proved it, along with so many others.

It takes work, time, dedication to your goal, etc, but it can be done.

Not out of existence, at least not from what I've read, but it was combined with one other and a part of a third district. So either Crockett runs against another Dem for the one combined district or one drops. She's dropping to make a Sen bid.

And why I'm an Independent.

Ah, that's my bad. I thought you were asking for the source of her announcement.
December 9, 2025 at 7:36 PM
And...

No notes.
December 9, 2025 at 7:22 PM
I saw 7 others post the news, read the comments, and went "WTF?" at said comments. LOTS of hate for Crockett entering the race. So I posted this as a "it's a primary chill".

Now I've used ALL my post engagement points for the next two years.

The DNC and their "consultants" have been advising Dem politicians to do stupid for decades.

My GUESS is that her big national recognition is something she's hoping to capitalize on along with the current climate before she's no longer "viable". But it's my GUESS.
December 9, 2025 at 7:16 PM
In the General? Sure.

Primary? Why?
December 9, 2025 at 7:13 PM
I don't expect any Dem in TX to win. Would be nice. But expect it? No.
December 9, 2025 at 7:10 PM
I did not write, "as a kinder Republican like Talarico is doing"...

So no, I am not referring to Talarico in that manner.

I HAVE seen Dems in red states, SC to be exact, that ran their campaign slogan as "A Kinder Republican"... hence my statement.
