MAGA has not succeeded in anything besides scaring the hell out of the Washington establishment. It has not changed America. It cannot. America is greater than any temporary political cult. Not the Tea Party. Not MAGA. Not any.

What kind of American would say that a Harris Administration would have been the same as this fledgling authoritarian, fascistic government we are experiencing now?

Oh never mind, I know! 🤬

DC passed an ordinance prohibiting handguns. The Heller decision (2nd Amendment) in 2008 found the ordinance violated the 2nd Amendment. So I jusr tuned in hearing you talking about long guns vs hand guns. Not sure if this helps…

When the detention centers are no longer used for immigrants they will be run like other private prisons for the carceral State.

We need to have a Democratic Party that is extremely progressive… tax the rich and the polluters… big tech/data centers and big oil. They will pay for the change. Nullification of AIPAC, Citizens United, and reform all forms of insurance. Universal healthcare, forgive student loans on people with incomes less than $150k. All education free and teachers pay better than the average middle class pay.

Thank you AG for admitting that the DNC fucked up big time by ignorning/manipulating primaries. I agree, we only have Dems to vote for. But they're not the heroes we need. Hopefully they take note of how their decisions have affected current events and learn from their mistakes.

Someone tell Byron Donalds that Cracker Barrel paid black workers much less than white and that is why the court had Cracker Barrel make DEI policies. The barrel also segregated black customers to the corners of the restaurant. How deep can Donalds put his head up trump's ass!
