Always a Dem—voted for McGovern. A dirty job but someone’s got to do it.

I’ve had hopeful moments about the end of the regime even after Trump buys his ticket to oblivion that we’ll be free again.

But I don’t think we’ll get any respite. I think the likes of Vance and Thiel are going to be far worse than Trump. They have an agenda and intelligence and discipline.
The first time I voted was in 72. For McCarthy. Since then I even voted for that stiff John Kerry.

Some name and David Bowman have morphed into one of the most depraved politicians in America. I’m referring to that moon-faced fascist, the couch fucker himself.

JD Vance attacks Jasmine Crockett:
“She wants to be a senator, though her street girl persona is about as real as her nails."

The guy who built his brand on a fake hillbilly sob story and has three different names - wants to lecture us on authenticity.

Americans all too often are completely ignorant about foreign countries. They think Europe is a socialist/communist hellhole because this is a Fox and Republicans have been spouting for years. Someone should get these dolts a passport and a plane ticket to Sweden, the most diverse country in Europe

ICE is seizing Hispanic citizens and telling them their citizenship is fake. When will they go after Muslim citizens? Jewish citizens? At this point everything bad is possible.

Face it,the Democratic party is compromised by corporate interests.

Time to do a deep cleaning and pay attention to who you send to congress.

That is, of course, considering we are even able to vote in elections or even elections that aren't corrupted by the facsist agenda.

When there is a Restoration, vengeance and executions are called for. The regime’s destruction and murders must be punished. There must be severe consequences.

Another detainee (ICE prisoner) dies in jail, the fourth this week. That we know of.

Murder.

The released files are, as most predicted, a steaming pile of nothing. A foul joke.

No one is satisfied. Please, somebody, be a Daniel Ellsberg.
December 20, 2025 at 4:44 PM
To my utter astonishment, the DOJ hasn’t released THOSE files today. I’m still waiting for an Ellsberg to leak the whole trove of them.

In the Trump version of Scrooge, I’ve got Biden or Obama or JFK playing ghost of Xmas past. Epstein as Christmas present, and everyone’s favorite fake hillbilly as the ghost of Christmas future.

Any other suggestions?

They delayed the release (“release”) of the Epstein files. In other news, winter begins on Sunday.

U.S. Inflation Slowed to 2.7% in November as Shutdown Distorts Data www.nytimes.com/2025/12/18/b...
The published rate of inflation shows a little improvement. But remember: it doesn’t include food and fuel—this is a dodge to reduce the shock of seeing the real rate. A trick decades old.

America doesn’t offer its people good value for their tax dollars. So much of the money is malappropoated. Almost a trillion dollars per years to feed a bloated military, with huge corruption at the acquisition level. Scanty, capricious funding for what will keep the nation healthier and productive.
