We have less than a year to get rid of weak, corporate centrists and milquetoast Democrats heading into the midterms.
There has to be a 2 to 4-year culling project.
Have to get rid of all of them.
They are part of the problem, and they aren't made for this moment or built for this fight.

I know it’s exhausting. I know you’re sick to death of Trump. I am, too. But as he revealed yesterday, there is no limit to what Trump will do to assert his power. Your activism, courage, and attention are needed now more than ever. https://robertreich.substack.com/p/sunday-thought-the-looting

Democrats need to strongly and uncompromisingly demand that Trump is removed from office for illegally starting a war for oil that benefits no one.

Even if Trump’s attack on Venezuela and kidnapping of Maduro somehow led to a positive impact on Venezuela’s future, it would not make these actions by the United States legal, moral or wise.
Normalising and legitimising this behaviour endangers all countries - democracies and dictatorships alike.

I love how Pam Bondi and the MAGA DOJ openly, shamelessly, and maliciously go after Trump's enemies, but Merrick Garland sat paralyzed for four years, terrified that prosecuting Trump for literally treasonable offenses would violate norms, precedent, and decorum. He must be so proud.

The Trump war on the press has reached the UK too. The BBC is being torn apart because of a dispute over how a video of Trump speaking on Jan 6 was edited. The pro-Trump crowd say it makes it seem like Trump was egging on his supporters to go to the Capitol -- which is exactly what happened.
