I understand that asshats is not nearly the best descriptive word. I suppose I could get really vulgar and use words that are more disgusting.. I’ve been using those words so much lately. I thought I’d try and clean it up..

I hate that mother fucker more than you know and all his fucking crew.. all of them. Okay I need coffee

We need a whole new language! This is all too understated.

Hope this won't get censored, but I say "Go right ahead, Dianne, and use that language!" That's because on those other msn sites--even if you DON'T use those words, one little negative word used towards The Dictator Criminal Dumplicon Psycho (and the republiCRAPS) gets the "not in our guidelines" crap. Only republiCRAPS are allowed to do it. Um...wonder who owns MSN? Glad it can be done here.

You know I try hard to not get carried away with my language.. I was in law enforcement for years and there’s times when that’s the only way to get your point across.. now I’m here. Retired trying to live a peaceful thoughtful life. Low and behold shit for brains gets elected and brings his motley crew of jackasses. I get so mad when I see how this whole thing is unfolding which most of us knew he’d be unleashing his revenge. I have to call it and them like I see them..

Thanks for your words of encouragement. I’ll stay on the path of profanity..

I've noticed the same with MSN. It is very right-wing biased.

Entire or nearly entire internet has been hijacked by terrorists eVIlonmusk-curtis yarvin-peter thiel etc... of the silicon valley broligarchs!! The Russian Opposition and Martyr Vladimir Kara-Murza in his excellent interview with MSNBC's Ali Velshi told you/us about it to be aware of!!

I think the weaknesses of our current system have shown others that trusting us too much is a bad idea... Regaining that trust will take a lot of work if it's ever really possible... We've been duped by our own people for too long...

It's not the 'system' ! No one duped you! The FACTS are available.

1. It's VOTER APATHY & laziness...listening to FOX NEWS = FAKE NEWS LIARS or similar is NOT information. We have an audience that wants SOUND BYTES & not information.

2. It's also LACK OF EDUCATION. Many of the comments indicate that voters don't even comprehend how GOVERNMENT works. The willingness to believe Trump LIES exemplifies that ignorance.

3. VOTERS are too lazy to LOOK UP AYTHING!

TRUMP tells a LIE...do you look up FACTS?

His LIES are ENDLESS! Made lots of LIES about US ENERGY INDEPENDENCE

The US ENERGY INFORMATION ADMINISTRATION posts FACTS that DOGE/MUSK clowns haven't taken down yet.

Under President Biden, the US was producing record amounts of fuel that at least stabilized global prices when OPEC cut production.

Lots of Republicans colluded with OPEC for which they were generously compensated - who noticed?

4. MUSKRAT was being investigated by numerous agencies & he worked to reduce workers, forced out those who were investigating him or like the FAA, forced MICHAEL WHITAKER OUT after he imposed fines for the SPACE X EXPLOSION & grounded SPACE X due to MUSRAT's safety failures.

MICHAEL WHITAKER WAS REPLACED BY SEAN DUFFY, AN INCOMPETENT CLOWN!

NOTE SUBSEQUENT PLANE CRASHES! THOSE ARE TRUMP PLANE CRASHES DUE TO INCOMPETENCE!

TRUMP'S HIRING FREEZE

TRUMP FIRED THE HEAD OF TSA & COAST GUARD

TRUMP ELIMINATED MEMBERS OF AVIATION SECURITY ADVISORY GROUP

NHTSA no longer reports TESLA'S FAILURES.

CHINA is promoting CLEAN CHEAP ENERGY & making friends while the Trump/musk/vance clowns anger allies.

Who noticed the FRIDAY NIGHT MASSACRE that replaced experienced, competent PENTAGON PROS with Trump lackeys? It was only the presence of experienced leaders who prevented Trump from doing stupid things during his first REIGN OF TERROR.

Excellent summary, Jessie. Thanks. What you wrote here needs to be published or somehow spread like wildfire all throughout the U.S. Should be required reading for ALL Americans--especially the ones who are "on the fence" because the vast majority of the time, they choose who the elected president or other official will be. And we definitely need to eliminate that damn gerrymandering crap every 10 years (due to the census) that decides the electoral college and unfortunately, supersedes counting the individual votes of an election. The majority of the time, an idiot republiCRAP is put in the oval office. Doubt the screwball in the Oval Office DID get the majority of the votes although from what I heard, he did. Got off on a tangent there. Sorry!!!!

If you read DEMOCRACY DOCKET, you'll find that REPUBLICANS are working harder than ever to DISENFRANCHISE VOTERS....& that Republican LOSER in NORTH CAROLINA just won't give up!

Recently, BRAIN DEAD MUSKRAT commented that computers don't belong in election & the Orange Turd echoed similar. The brain dead clowns ignore that FOX NEWS = FAKE NEWS LIARS settled with DOMINION VOTING MACHINES for $787 MILLION to avoid the embarrassment of a TRIAL for their LIES.

THE BRAIN DEAD demanded PAPER BALLOTS! DUH! How do you think a RECOUNT is conducted if there are no PAPER BALLOTS?

The GOP loser in NORTH CAROLINA wants to discard 60,000 VOTES....there's already been a RECOUNT OF PAPER BALLOTS.

Sorry for my tangent! Check out DEMOCRACY DOCKET!

I have ACQUAINTANCES who can tell you all of the statistics of their favorite TEAM...but they can't tell you who their elected officials are.

REPUBLICANS are known for repeating identical talking points - LIES.

"R" voters never look anything up!

CRYPTO SCAMMER JOHN DEATON, voted 3 times in 20 years, lived in RHODE ISLAND & decided to run against SENATOR ELIZABETH WARREN.

CARPETBAGGER spewed LIES surrounded by other MASS GOP.

Those LIES were easily disproven. Why would a voter vote for a LIAR?

I've done voter canvassing in REPUBLICAN areas....there is no rational explanation. I knocked on doors to defeat a corrupt Republican & the response I got was "WE ONLY VOTE FOR REPUBLICANS!"

See, yep. ALL NONTRUMPUTINIST AND BETTER YET ANTITRUMPUTINIST AMERICANS IF THEY/WE EVEN THINK OF HAVING ANY CHANCES - MUST BE FANATICALLY-DETERMINED TO DECONSTRUCT AND DISASSEMBLE THE ENTIRE so-called "republican party of USA"- and-all-its movements within it - 'cause if they're within it - they're bad, make no mistake!!

The local City Council meetings and the CSRD public meeting usually only have me in the gallery.

This is the BC Interior who ate either right wing or anarchists.

If I talk about Food Security, I'm accused of talking politics in public.

There is no preparation for a plan B in view of 25% and 50% tariffs.

Don't mention democratically elected for 9 yrs Prime Minister Justin Trudeau's name in public.

They can't spit out the same grade 5 sentence of get rid of Trudeau.

Now that he is going in March, the olive brancges will be covering the streets welcoming the Governor of rge 51st State.

Im half Ukrainian and half United Empire Loyalist ancestors.

My DNA is boiling inside of me.

It's very similar elsewhere. Our local government meetings are broadcast on CABLE - few watch.

I have acquaintances who can tell you their favorite team's statistics, but can't name their elected officials.

All empires eventually fall. I believe we are witnessing the collapse of American domination in the world. I just hope the new geopolitical outcomes are towards more freedom, and not more tyranny, torture, death, disease, poverty and destruction before a socialist economic system emerges. Socialism is the production of goods and services to meet the needs of the people, not to meet the profit quotas of an elite billionaire class while extracting maximum productivity from the resources, including the human resources as they are prone to treat like objects rather than human beings. Socialism brought us the movement toward equality, gender equity and inclusion, tolerance, and a civil society that works for all. Socialists fought for, and died for, health and safety laws, the 40 hour work week, health and safety regulations, and the end of child labor.

Examples from socialist economic systems are: public education, public health, public museums, parks, public and municipal utilities and transportation, roads, and a job for all that provides for a livable lifestyle as defined by the culture, rather than the marketing gurus who use psychology to trick people into consuming far more than they need or can afford; where we all treat each other as brothers and sisters, and recognizing that we, as a society, as a nation, yes, even as a planet, all share the same space, want the same basic things for ourselves and our families, and want a future filled with joy, self fulfillment, compassion, and care rather than division, slavery hatred, abuse, violence and the grabbing of more, more, more by the wealth class, who thinks they truly are better than the rest of us (while usually being very weak, rotten, and vulgar shells of indecency and lasciviousness.

All, all that perfectly said and meant, just, the term is a true progressive/ity, social-liberal/ism, social-democrat/cy instead of "socialist, socialism" as that term got, most unfortunately, deprecated by stalinist-his derivatives' quasi-"communists" who ruined the idea and practice for too long.

Well hard work is good work. It may not happen in my lifetime but hopefully I’ll get to see progress in that direction..
