Pragmatic in my politics which translates to progressive, liberal, moderate and conservative depending on the issue.

Why is Jared Kushner anywhere near the Ukrainian-Russia negotiations? It stinks.

@moulton.house.gov really wish you’d stop saying Schumer “snatched defeat from the jaws of victory.” First, it was a victory for Democrats to have the nation focused on Republican efforts to throw hundred of thousand of citizens off health insurance. Polls clearly showed this. And in a few weeks we

@davidmdrucker.bsky.social did you see Trump’s comments about Gov. Waltz and Rep. Ilhan Omar? And you expect this unhinged gang will conduct a thoughtful after action report? Stop the normalization. It doesn’t help us when MSM behaves in this manner.

Did you just hear Kelly Loeffler on CNBC. It was a cesspool of lies. Did Quick challenge her on anything?

National Guard aren’t ICE or Border Patrol. They didn’t sign up looking to harass and repress people. They’re volunteers, part time, in case of emergency. They didn’t ask for this.

West Virginia National Guard shouldn’t have been deployed in Washington DC.

Victims of the shooter and the president.

When asked about the death of a W. Virginia National Guardsman, the President of the United States bragged about his electoral margin in her state.

When asked about the shooter, he called the reporter a stupid person.

Please stop holding quarter for anyone supporting this monstrous piece of shit.

@davidmdrucker.bsky.social Trump’s first instinct is to blame Biden, place 500 additional NG in harms way, and shut down all immigration from Third World countries. Are these examples of a thoughtful response to this tragedy? Yet you normalize his reaction. Oh then he calls a reporter stupid.
November 28, 2025 at 1:17 PM
@davidmdrucker.bsky.social there you go again. You just normalized Trump’s response. Yes, an investigation is needed. Yet to immediately go to attacking immigrants and chest pumping by placing 500 more NG in DC is NOT a thoughtful after action process. 1:77,000. Can we EVER bat 1000. Thanks.

There was no "Emergency" situation with crime in DC. This stunt got a 20 year old young woman killed.

It. Got. A. Woman. Killed.

It’s twisted logic that they need more NG in DC. It’s why they were shot.

If no NG were in DC, these two Guardsmen would be alive and well.

The National Guard shooting in DC is a tragedy, especially when you consider that there’s ZERO reason for them to be there.

National Guard soldiers didn't sign up to be deployed as local police indefinitely as part of someone else's political stunt.

They're not set up to be local police, they never should have been deployed.

Hegseth and Patel use this terrible tragedy to advance their militarization of our cities. They were almost salivating today.
National Guard troops don't sign up to be used as political pawns. They sign up to serve their country, not needlessly deploy to American cities to pick up garbage. These two soldiers should be alive right now and at home with their families for Thanksgiving. I'm furious.

A judge in Georgia dismissed the last pending criminal prosecution against President Trump on Wednesday, effectively ending efforts to hold him criminally responsible for attempts to overturn the 2020 election.

Two-tiered justice system in America. Does nothing for our confidence in the judiciary.

Trump can make AI videos shitting on Americans but he calls for the execution of members of Congress who tell members of the military they are not obligated to fulfill unlawful orders.
