He is making less sense everyday. He is in so far over his head. At some point it may dawn on him that they will be happy to let him take the fall for all their dastardly deeds.

When are dealing with someone with a different version of reality there is no chance of communicating. He is deranged, but all those propping him up for their own purposes are even worse.

That is one of the many concerns for sure. They are attacking everything everywhere all at once.

None of them are elected, so there is a possibility. But that is why Vance was selected as VP by the broligarchy. It will take a lot to budge the Congressional GQP especially since they know they will face retribution. Or what we call accountability.

Collaborator class is perfect. They have not learned the basic rule of appeasement: it never works. Now it is mostly a grift: pay to play. But no one stays on his good side for long; he always wants more and will turn on you at any time. Why are the rich and powerful dancing to this tune?

Thank you for this. The poster should have verified before posting. 😭 I have heard others say it too. Very frustrating. It never helps to add to the noise and confusion.

I saw it too. Just good luck, isn't it, for most of us.

Given that Israel has violated every other ceasefire, it is hard to put a lot of faith in the latest one of many.

How did you manage to make this about you? Are you one of those people that drops the name of the school you went to in every conversation too?

America is finally being run like a business: one acquired by private equity that is being stripped for parts before being liquidated.

Yes teach them young that they are not responsible for their mistakes. Now do adults.

Do you send an acknowledgment of receipt of submission with info about the process OR do you just leave them dangling in the wind?

This pretends that this is not already happening. Americans owe billions medical debt. It's just now, it is about to get worse.

Soundbite culture, character limits, and oversimplification that dumbs everything down are big sources of generalizations. Another issue is so many posts are telling people what we already know. These serve to inflate the poster's ego. Instead of cutting through the noise, it only makes it louder.

For most of the rich, wealth and power go hand in hand. It appears that they think they can never have enough.

Whatever works.
At a Costco? giving out samples of self awareness. One person says: Whoa other people exist. Another says: Oops, I'm blocking the aisle. Another: I should move my cart.

It is all so overwhelming and exhausting and neverending right now.
Are you burned out or are you having a reasonable reaction to a never ending barrage of bad news which you do very little about.
