Which is the usual hyperbolic conflation and deflection strategy.  Almost comical, once apparent.

In case anyone was wondering if Wall Street runs this country.  Dimon whipped for Obama, for a bill that benefited Dimon.  Democrats in Congress were startled, but I doubt they would be startled today.

Seems oddly out of character, as I doubt the CIA actually gives a shit about anybody, really.

Sort of like the TPP – corporations can sue for projected lost income if a country says no, no fracking or cutting down the trees.

Don’t worry, soon I will stop “constantly complaining” and just stop wasting my time with politics.  Maybe talk to people at a local personal level.  Certainly will not send anyone any money.  Or vote for a “Democrat”, much less a Republican.   IMO, the current political situation is all theater.  And the issues getting the most attention are t…[Read more]

in sending money to anyone now.  It is like having a favorite professional wrestler, IMO – all theater, only politicians can and will hurt us.  They get LOTS more money from the entities who really run things.  That “well, we tried, but were, as usual, out-voted.  But SEND MORE MONEY!!!!!!!!” shtick has gotten old and stale.  Not playing any more.

Bernie and the Fraud Squad are not “The Left” and Manchin is not a “moderate”.  Looks like “voting rights” is the new campaign dead horse, but look at what I have the “right” to fucking vote for.   What a farce this all is.

The Party picks the candidates; they even said that.  They don’t mind little progressive minnows swimming around.   Biden getting us out of Afghanistan was a sorry joke before he even said it.

Biden and Harris are in the same club.   I mean this in the nicest possible way – they have credibility with the people who actually run things, they don’…[Read more]

Or those who yap that we can change things through our totally corrupted election system.

I will likely never make one fucking iota of difference, but I refuse to play that sadistic game.  And today’s politics are nothing but a sadistic rigged game.

Too bad those folks in Congress merely acting like they are there to help us would most likely only save themselves in a similar situation.  And then sanction the rest of the universe, and appropriate and patent the technology.

Liberals were absolutely fine with the Clintons’ attitude towards and treatment of Bill’s conquests.  That, to me, shows the complete lack of regard for not just women, but for other people who are not the .1%, of the Clintons and the Democratic party and their ilk.

contrast that as opposite from Bernie’s stances, she was forever “not good enough” for me.   Also whinging about sexism is not presidential in the least.

but now the Dems controlling Congress has been demoted to “a slim majority” and that will save, er, prevent Biden from being Robin Hood, LBJ, and FDR.  Of course, Biden has spent his long political career being the antithesis of Robin Hood, LBJ, and FDR.  And, evidently, we are to now regard campaign blathering and pandering, speeches, p…[Read more]

Won’t be holding my breath.  And I do not believe it for one second.  “I beat the socialist” Biden.

much actually getting done, in order to get people to associate Biden, Schumer, The Democratic Party, et al. with Bernie, for upcoming election purposes.

Saying this sort of thing costs nothing.  Campaign blathering

a program.  And, like any program, it can work excellently, or run amok.  And have bugs.  The danger is if the program does not recognize the bugs as problems, and also – who writes the initial code.   If “AI” takes over, there is likely not gonna be a help desk.  IMO, a true “intelligence” has emotions and will do things it KNOWS are wrong, or fo…[Read more]

Seems to me like that “bipartisan reaching across the aisle” thibg is used by the Democrats in order to avoid doing anything progressive.

Oh, well, all over now.  I sure would not have wanted to attend, even if invited; bad company, for the most part.  All I have seen is Kimmel’s version.  ALL SOTUs, IMO, are just blathering and lies and misdirection.  Pointless, really.

And Biden actually “spending” is not “actual spending”  What a disingenuous pile of claptrap.     Also “narrow but powerful majorities” means the most powerful Democrats are the Manchins.    Methinks the Dems would be horrified at the thought of losing those convenient blue doggies.

The entire election process is, IMO, corrupt and rife with lying and pandering and huge money – choosing the candidates, the primaries, the campaigns, and the general elections.  If the Dems had not won, they would have cried corruption.
