I still think national security is the tie that binds. Hegseth is a dream opponent....
Meidas should be concentrating on the many Congressional Republicans who are unhappy with Trump. We need to get them to come to their senses and stand up with us. jerryweiss.substack.com

Liz Cheney’s clear and spot-on guidance to Dems plants her in a leadership role ~
NO NO........OAC and Jasmine are the ones we need.............Hauling up Liz Cheney was a bad move.
She's a Republican trying to do the right thing; She and Adam Kissinger have done much in defense of the Constitution, civil rights and the welfare of the people. I respect and appreciate their stepping up when so few Republicans have even when I know in my heart that there are some that don't like what's going on but don't have the guts to stand up and say this is wrong; I don't think we should be going in that direction. I follow their news letters and FB page. It gives me hope that there are Republicans out there that hate what's going on as much as the dems. I think we have to quit the them and us thing and talk with those who don't like Trump's actions any more than we do. Maybe they will have more weight with their Congrees people than angry democrats. We need strong Democrat voices but we can't ignore the Republicans who are trying to fight to save our democracy, especially when Trump is targeting and trying to quell those voices from within. This is far to big to be about parties and individual idiologies. We have to find ways to unite people from everywhere who support our Constitution and way of life. We can't afford to make it an us or them fight. This has to be a we everyone together fight. We need every single person who's willing to stand up and fight for democracy to do so without fear of being targeted.
When Cheney comes out and supports womens rights 100%, then all you say is true. So far, 'thoughts and prayers" have not stopped gun violence.
Where is Liz on that??
Where are the Republicans that are standing up against Trump in all these votes......please make a list of them for me.
Maga/GOPs main reason to exist is to " Get the Libs" They are the ones that do not want to be reached out too!! When will that message be finally received........they are narcissitc bullies and think that this is just a sign of weakness and LOL at us!!!
Adam Kissinger is for sure kicking ass.
Look at the hell we are going through......and the GOP cancel their town halls!!! Bernie and OAC are risking alot going into Red Zones.......hopefully they hve good security.........
The people are finding their way.....they are going to the streets to protest againt Trump/Musk/fascists/GOP sellouts..........their savinga are being stolen......old age security in jeopardy..........is playing nice really an option when the other side laughs at you?
Invite she and Murkowski to join them.
How many Republican Congressional votes can Bernie and AOC deliver?
David Brooks?
The Cantwell tariff bill has 7 Republican cosponors.
Republicans need psychological reinforcement to stand with us.
Every progressive voice I have heard say the GOP are afraid of being primaried......Musk will use his $$$$ to go against them..
Wow......7 GOP members want to do someting on tariffs?? What about the 100s of others????
.....The Pope dies right after looking at Vances eye make up and his best smoky-eye.....yea fascism is bad for your health.
Flash: Rep. Don Bacon, a prominent Republican and former Air Force general, has become the first GOP lawmaker to publicly call for the removal of Pete Hegseth.
Is there such a thing as a prominent Republican? They are all either sexual preditors or felons.... have taken the Orange Oath, kissed the ring and sold their souls This guy is the next up to be fired by the Orange dictator.........Hegseth is just following the 2025 fascist playbook that instructs the use of alternate media.
With that attitude we are fucked. We are close to eliminating Trump, and you would reject it.
"We are close to eliminating Trump."..........are fc#king kidding me? This has to be a joke........but you are serious and that is truly frightening to see on the MTN. Will keep an eye out for your future postings........You need some kind of wake up call......I cannot help you.
I so wish Daniel Solomon were factual, but his infatuation by the nowadays' repukkke party would be naive were it not puzzling.....
I've liked your comments, but the things you wrote about some good repukkkes I only see in your posts, nowhere else. Are you writing the wishful thinkings or what, only you know.
Unless that party unambiguously and unequivocally rejects and condemns the entire tRumputin-his magat-person&movement, at least the way Liz Cheney and Adam Kinzinger did, I see no bacons or hams or pork chops doing anything good.
We don't live in a perfect world and this is an emergency; need to get thenm to stand up and salute the same flag we do.

I hope he's not just a Susan Collins who always says something like well this is concerning, and then always supports trump knowing any stance she sort of takes may placate some voters but will not hurt trump's agenda at all.
The republicans are all complicit in shredding the constitution and making as much money as possible from trumps get rich quick schemes - that he promised them.
