The ignorant Bitch this week. Dem Leadership. Troy Jackson replaced Maine Senate candidate Graham Planter in a seat to take on squidbilly Susan Collins, after all his scandals emerged in his campaign, and he stepped down. Yet Chuck Schumer and Dem leadership won't endorse Troy because he is a true progressive. All our Dem leaders seem to be conservative and hate progress. Schumer and Jefferies also refused to endorse Mamdani when he ran and he was in their own areas! Why isn't there a movement to get rid of unpopular Dem leaders??? Because... most Dems couldn't even admit for months on end that Biden was suffering with failing health. When are they going to see that they are not in step with what their voters want??? That last several elections have proved that the true progressives are winning...and the ones that have gotten in are keeping and completing campaign promises...there is a novelty. Schumer in 2016-" For every blue-collar Democrat we lose in western PA, we will pick up two moderate Republicans in the suburbs in Philadelphia." Just like Harris campaigning with far-right Liz Cheny, Democrats have abandoned the left and now want GOP voters instead. This isn't a purity test--it's an ideological shift towards the right since Bill Clinton. The Democrats party needs to start LISTENING. The voters are tired of them being beholden to AIPAC, yes you Crockett and others, and the Isarel war, and to others not keeping promises and getting things done, but yet want a photo-opt with Nettanyahu. We're not stupid, That moral duplicity does not work for our base. Schumer, Jefferies, Booker, and many, many others, and in the House too, are the ones who need to leave the party and call it MAGA -Lite. Because the Mamdani and others getting elected are where it is at, are where the voters want to be...and guess what these people can do? They can do the one thing you want...so desperately... but because you're so fake, and you don't mean anything you say you will do, or believe you'll get anything done, all you care about is getting lobbyist money...they can get someone who was a trump voter, to vote for them and win... because the voters are looking for authenticity and trust, but when your bought and paid for by AIPAC you're not authentic...you're the GOP's and Netanyahu's bitch.
Let's face it...there is a war brewing in the party with newly elected Democrats with center Dems and leadership. Let's be clear- these center Dems are angry that 35 progressives with grassroots funding were elected nationally. And they are mad that they are winning also with voters who once voted Trump. and on platforms for Medicare for All and other simple platforms. Many are already gaining power and helping people by actually freezing rents, funding public pools and libraries, opening city run cheaper grocery stores, and paying for childcare. It's still beyond me why they aren't embracing Hassan Piker more. The man is brilliant! He revealed that hundreds of Democratic candidates all across the country have reached out to get help promoting their campaign. Abdul El-Sayed's campaign recently saw an increase of 29% in volunteer sign-ups and a 20% increase in donations following a rally he did with Hassan...and it paid off, he won his primary election for Senate.
Wake up Dem Party....get with it, or get left behind, or voted out. The voters are speaking and taking action, and you still don't see it.

My dear, this is the changing of the guards. America's been looking for a vital spark for a long time, and it looks like we've found it.
ReplyDeleteLet's hope the spark continues....and spark even more people who actually want to do good things and get the country back again.
DeleteOh, idiots.
ReplyDeleteEl Sayed’s nomination should wake them up. Mamdani is setting the example. The MAGAts will never vote Democrat. Ever. Not even the ones Cankles has fucked over. Change is coming.
XOXO
Oh but many Republicans I know in Bucks County and from helping with volenteering at that time, do indeed vote with Demoracts. Many will vote republician for fiscal reasons and local seats....but when it comes to US House and Senate...Governor and President they break with the party and vote Democrat. It drives the PA GOP nuts. Its why here in PA they always say the south eastern Republicans are not true Republicans.
DeleteThank you thank you for this.
ReplyDeleteSpeaking as one of the Last of the Yellow Dog Democrats here in Louisiana, the changes being brought about by the Democratic Cousins up North are giving us a boost down here in the Deep South.
ReplyDeleteNovember is going to be a true test. Can the DS candidates beat the Republicans?
ReplyDeleteThe purity tests are alarming. I am STILL hearing young voters say, "if my candidate doesn't win the primary, I won't vote." That is the DS base speaking. El-Sayed is getting endorsements from the state's Dems - because they understand the need to pull together to win in November.
And they need to get over the disarray of the dump winning the last election...I just hope they get a candidate that everyone can relate too...
DeleteIt seems we are at the same point we were 10 years ago, when voters were not satisfied with the status quo and were looking for change. Unfortunately as we found out, voters weren't looking for a candidate with morals, integrity and common sense. They were looking for a buffoon to entertain them and make them laugh with his wild antics, crude humor and a candidate who hated the same people they did. Brother, did we get that president! Now that the carnage and destruction to our form of government is on vivid display, we will have to wait until November are ready to change course. Preliminary signs are encouraging, but people like Mamdani and El-Sayed are at a disadvantage because the majority of MAGAS and many Repugnants have a mental picture of "The immigrants are coming, the immigrants are coming" hysteria and will never vote for them, however qualified they may be. I'm encouraged here in my state that my Congressional candidate and the other Democrat in the race have a combined vote of 58% and the GOP candidate has 35%. If the Democratic voters will get behind her, that will be telling. There are many factors still to be determined as to how the vote will go in November, let's hope a big majority will let the current administration know their days are numbered.
ReplyDeleteSome of these wins have been very sweet! I'm hoping that a woman running here for US Representative will beat Scott Perry once and for all....if not, I have no hope for this area of PA anyhow. At this point, how does either party keep voting for the same old choices over and over and over when they are not providing results? If neither party doesn't stop up and start giving people what we are asking for and some relief....this country is done. Unless of course you're a billionaire.
DeleteHear, hear!
ReplyDeleteAs a start all democracies should put an age limit on politicians. Schumer and his ilk should go. And like the limits for presidents there should be a maximum number of terms a politician should serve.
ReplyDeleteI bet Schumer will be the next McConnell. They don't see they hurt the party at the end of day.
DeleteMaddie....centrist Democrats are just republicians at this point with a semi decent stand on some identity issues. Give me more of the new blood!
ReplyDeleteVote blue no matter...... oh fuck it.
DeleteHere! Here! If they don't see who's winning and what their voters want...they need to go. Centrist Dems would rather lose to a republican then support real change and keep promises and make great changes. When Jasmine Crockett lost her primary...she became a sore loser and refused to endorse Talarico...and still won't campaign for him. Of course i was over her when I heard the money she took from AIPAC and funding the bloodbath. So do they really want to bring change or why they just greedy pigs?
ReplyDeleteWhat we need is FDR... New Deal Democrat...all others please step aside...we gave a country to fix.
DeleteAge limits and term limits for Congress, the Senate and the Supreme Court, an end to lobbyists and Citizens United, and the adoption of a strict code ethics in government and punishment for corruption in government must be done to save the USA.
ReplyDeleteTime to end the needless bullshit that’s destroying our country.
An old Philadelphian
I couldn't agree more!!!! We are we now settling for less than and this bullshit???? I partly blame reality TV. All that bad behavior...screaming, fighting and drama playing out has made the country think this is fine...which is why we have a buffoon for President I find.
DeleteAmen, sister! I just had a very similar conversation with the MITM (he's overseas right now) about how excited folks are outside of the USA to see a move towards real change in the Dems! As a Boomer, I am ECSTATIC to see younger people taking charge and winning! Shumer, et. al. need to realize that they no loinger understand what's happening and/or how to deal with the reality of this new technological world! What cracks me up is that so many of their staffers are YOUNG and in-tune with what's happening. We live in hope, sweetpea! xoxo
ReplyDeletep.s. I totally agree with you about reality TV and the effect it has had on people.
Thanks Savvy! It seems many things pass for politics and entertainment anymore. I will never ever understand reality shows, especially shows like Survivor and Big Brother , Housewives and the like its the same shit over and over and over...I don't get it. We have settled for a very relaxed style, in everything. What happen to quality and top-notch entertainment. And your right about the staffers. How can these old farts be out of it when they have with it young staffers????? My ec worked for a state rep, and he constantly put her in place and guided her, and in some cases if worked and she did great things and opened her eyes to things she never thought about.
DeleteJoan knows, she can smell the stench of their duplicity. Time to get the hatchet used in Straight Jacket.

🤣😅😂
DeleteThis is a great and tell it like it is post! I've been telling everyone...if you like the way the parties and country have looked for the last thirty or more years, then by all means keep voting for the same old foolish centrists..."moderates: and conservatives. We will then never get the needle moving in a new direction.
ReplyDeleteYou just hit the nail on the head? Said beautifully.
DeleteThose entrenched Dems do seriously need to wake up and own the fact that they have been failing despite the idiocy of the Rethuglicans and they need to shake things up.
ReplyDeleteSpot on.
ReplyDeleteChuck Schumer needs to go; he's the Democratic Kevin McCarthy, useless and past his prime. The progressive wing of the party is working for We The People and the Moderates need to step up or else face losing their seats.
I know right? Open your eyes Dem Party!!!!
DeleteI think the country is going to push blue, or a lighter red.
ReplyDeleteMainer here 👋🏼, Troy didn't just replace Platner, he is dominating the field of replacement delegate votes by like 2/3 because we are voting based on platform. We overwhelmingly voted against the DNC picks. I'll always be a democratic, but they are making it very hard right now.
ReplyDeleteWelcome and thanks for commenting! Yes! Congrats Maine on successfully replacing Platner with a candidate who ALSO gives the DNC creeps like Schumer and Jeffries heartburn.
DeleteSchumer's refusal to endorse Troy should be one of his campaign's biggest strengths—not a weakness. They need to make a billboard that says, "Troy isn't endorsed by any of the corporate establishment elite democrats like Schumer or Jeffries, and that's why you can trust him! And others they won't endorse. He'll and they will and are representing the people instead of billionaires, corporations, or the political elites!"
ReplyDeleteTheir refusal to endorse Troy should be one of his campaign's biggest strengths. not a weakness. It signals that he's not beholden to the same political establishment or special interests. If anything, it gives voters another reason to trust that he'll represent the people instead of protecting the status quo.
ReplyDeleteI don’t think those dems you mentioned and even more, know what their base wants. They have been completely out of touch with their constituents for years. I don't even know I look forward to seeing who they even put up for president. Probably the same old choices again.
ReplyDeleteThey just don’t want to admit. The DNC autopsy report of the election result is a clear example of that. They removed pages about gaza, and there is no mention about inflation, or how leadership is perceived as weak. The strategy isn’t to address the issues, but sit and wait, not change anything, until they are seen as the “less worse viable” option. THAT your NOT THAT PARTY is not a platform to run on.
DeleteI still have a bad feeling about this. Centrist Democrats have been ratcheting the Democratic Party to the right since the William Jefferson Clinton, a conservative in “liberal” clothing and his far right wife were in charge to the point where non-primary tested Harris was put into place, unopposed, spouting jingoistic pro-Israel, pro IDF, pro Mossad talking points, and didn't talk enough about the good things Biden did... while she ran hand in hand with war criminal, double Bush administration operative Dick Cheney’s ultra-right wing daughter Liz, whose only positive attribute is that she recognized that The Mango Mussolini and his administration had full blown lie-mentia and a severe case of lie-abetes. Yet we have Mayor Pete who would be good but left to wither on the vine. Wake up America, we deserve better.
ReplyDeleteLieabetes' & 'liementia'... brilliantly coined, These 'centralist' Lieocrats must be shaking in their blood-stained boots. If they aren't they should be.
DeleteAs a Canadian, I have a hard time distinguishing between Democrats and Republicans that are in all likelihood backed by the same billionaires hedging their bets. It reminds me of Kang and Kodos on the Simpsons, LOL! Why are there only two major political parties in the U.S.? "Big Tent" parties become hidebound too quickly and rarely provide good governance, IMHO.
ReplyDeleteDamn fucking right! I want to see a full SLATE of progressive Democrats take over the God Damn party! I've had enough of Schumer reading his "sternly written letters to the Trump administration" from the podium of an empty Senate chamber! Time to show some balls!!!
