It's 2026. Should the Dems prevail, what's the plan to right the course of this country? It is there one?

Well, Trump just shit in our back yard. History tells us these adventures never go well. Unfortunately Venezuela is not across the world.

2. And my bet is, the first time you try to tell the truth, which may piss off Trump and Bari, you will be told to step in line or " here is the highway".

Ok Tony Dokoupil, new CBS news anchor. You are asking us to trust the NEW CBS news, start by telling the truth about this fuck up coming down in Venezuela
January 3, 2026 at 3:51 AM
How many $B is this crazy Venezuelan shit show costing the US taxpayers. Dems, you want an issue, get on every platform you can and about it out!
December 31, 2025 at 8:50 PM
Is there any body with the power to pull Trump back from this Venezuela disaster that's unfolding? Rubio is clearly crazed, and Trump is too sick and feeble to comprehend WTF is happening.
December 31, 2025 at 8:46 PM
So Big trouble coming for big banks? Fed lifts borrowing limits to banks? Something s up that's not being reported.

Is this Venezuela thing more about distraction from Epstein, or the tried and failed plan of getting in a war and the American people will rally around? These people advising Trump and trump himself are crazy, if not just stupid! A 5th grade class could do better. Wtf will it take to end this?

"Congress looks to reclaim relevance after ceding power to White House" as posted on The Hill today. All I have to say is it's about fucking time!

If you Dems ever get a chance to negotiate a new ACA bill, nobody has a problem with upper income brackets being eliminated from the program, and everybody should pay some sort of copay min $5. If they can. And it needs to actually rein in costs, not just subsidize the insurance company.

The next president of the US, is going to have to prepare the population that we are no longer going to be the country that rules the world, but going to have to share power with China, Russia, India,maybe more. The $ will not be the world currency. Yes, some of us know this, but most don't.

Every time the US forces a regime change in a foreign country, it backfires and makes matters worse . What makes us think it will be different this time.
December 23, 2025 at 12:49 AM
It's finally being said out loud."The Russian invasion of Ukraine was provoked"

So now that Americans have maxed their credit cards, we are being offered a Heloc credit card. What could possibly go wrong?
December 19, 2025 at 10:37 PM
For $150k, it better be one hell of a penis!
December 19, 2025 at 6:48 PM
So this Venezuela thing is really all about little Marco wanting to go back and liberate Cuba?! Wake up Trump, and call this mis- adventure off while you still can.
December 17, 2025 at 12:04 AM
America first at everybody else's expense. How long can we get away with this philosophy?
December 15, 2025 at 11:37 PM
USA has a military presence in approximately 9 middle eastern countries. Maybe if we left 2 or 3 of them, we could afford national health care for our own citjzens

2.Downsizing the Military shifting investment (to infrastructure, education, green tech), and reforming contracting (fixed-price, tech-driven innovation), all while citizens demand oversight and re-prioritization away from endless war toward domestic needs,

Downsizing the Military-Industrial Complex (MIC) involves a multi-faceted approach, including reducing bloated budgets (cutting admin, curbing overruns), increasing transparency & accountability (banning stock ownership for officials, enforcing lobbying disclosure)

Will someone remind me why we have troops in Syria?
December 14, 2025 at 1:40 AM
Is Trump pushing this war with Venezuela for a distraction or personal protection?
December 1, 2025 at 3:53 AM
Wow, just heard it loud and clear, "America promotes WAR over wealth creation".
