Our perception of time is warped in crisis, so I understand the eye witnesses reporting 15 minutes before EMT arrived. It likely felt like that much time to them. But the refusal of the doctor's request to offer first aid within the first minute is HORRID and criminal.

Conway's interviews are about holding this criminal administration accountable and formalizing norms into laws that the Dems did not do in 2021-2024. I am good with a former GOP lawyer getting elected to do just that and then retire to the ski slopes after a term or two.

If Dems want to govern they need to win more elections. The GOP is better at marketing. Use their skills to clearly communicate better to low info voters. I certainly do not want GOP governance but I want the Dems to start winning more elections. A lot to learn from their communication techniques.

The GOP is MUCH better at marketing than Dems. They are MUCH better at succinctly conveying messages that connect with their voters and independents.Those are the tricks I am talking about. Not crimes.

Why I am ok with this former republican running as a Dem is he knows how to run against GOP candidates. He knows all the dirty tricks that Dems do not have the heart to use. He will be too moderate for me BUT if he can win and help hold trump and his admin accountable. I'm good!

I was a teenager when Ford pardoned Nixon. I vowed then to never vote Republican (grew up with parents who ONLY voted GOP).

Yesterday I did look up some of the profiles of people agog in glory for trump. At least half of the profiles looked like bots and trolls. Do not let social media dispirit you. Turns out in latest polling only about 1/3 of people surveyed agreed with the attack on Venezuela.

Just watched Senator Kelly's last night's interviews with Rachel Maddow & Jon Stewart. The whole time just wondered if the idiots in this administration understand how much they elevated the senator's 2028 pres candidacy with their pettiness? Kelly's always been a bit too moderate for me; no longer!

Yes, I keep remembering the celebratory Iraqis when Saddam Hussein ran. But within weeks it was chaos.

Yes, this congratulatory talk sadly reminds me of all the backslapping after a few weeks in Iraq. How did that turn out??? This lack of plan is worrisome. Another shitshow quagmire???

Yeah, he did. But there is plenty of blame to go around. To pin it all on Garland is the singleminded thinking that keeps us chasing our tails.

Nope. The label of anti-semitism for those criticizing the overstep of violence and power using the cover of the Oct 17th Massacre is what I believe they are conveying. Most of us can distinguish the difference between supporting Jewish or Israeli people and condemning Zionists.

As much as I despise her crazy opinions and behavior -- sort of going to miss her being a burr irritating trump and the rest of MAGA. A few weeks ago I would have celebrated this news. But now I am going to miss her public part in the MAGA civil war.

I wonder how much money the federal government will end up paying out for wrongful arrest and property damage lawsuits for all this bullshit?

If all one consumes is right wing media they are not getting the whole picture. Their fault for not broadening their news consumption but I do understand how ignorant they stay because of their narrow news diet.
