Looking at the financial collapse of 2008...

which got started by the fall of Bear Stearns in March 2008:

Trump will get his SCOTUS nominee confirmed. What will the Dems do in response?

That's the question we should be asking. There's little to nothing that the Dems can do to stop it, so how will the Dems respond if/when they get back into power?

Hey, Sen. Tim Kaine, after Romney's decision today, what say you now?

If you're not in a group that has had to petition the SCOTUS to recognize your humanity...

then please show some empathy to those who are in such a group and are rightfully anxious at this moment in our nation's history.

Thank you.

Some advice for Jaime Harrison who's running against Lindsey Graham

I would run ads calling out Sen. Graham's lack of honor. Going back on his word. Saying one thing, one day, and then saying something entirely different. Regardless of politics, being dishonorable is a political sin. Even if you agree with him now, what about tomorrow? Can you trust him to do the right thing? Can you believe a word that he says? Would you put your child's life in his hands?

And if Graham responds by saying, the Democrats forced my hand, then respond by saying, "You're no better than they are. Two wrongs make it right?"

I think that that line of attack would be Harrison's best bet. Regardless of the polls, Harrison faces an up hill battle, but challenging Lindsey on honor is his best bet.

Are we, and the Democratic party, ready for the age of raw exercise of power politics?

I keep reading on here things like: we can't do "x" because they will do "y", or we cannot do that because Joe Manchin will vote against it, or the polls say that people are against a new SCOTUS justice before the election, or we have to keep our powder dry, or some other nonsense.

People, we don't live in some sort of Aaron Sorkin "West Wing" world of Ivy League-educated policy wonks finding some sort of moderate positions.

This is the world of raw exercise of power. They do not care about hypocrysy and going back on their words. They do not care about institutional norms. They do not care that the president violated the law. They do not care about justice. They do not care if we all die from covid. They only care about power.

My question is, do we have the stomach to match them. Or, are we too worried about how some suburban voters in MI feels about extending statehood to DC? Are we ready to fight power with power or are we going to listen to wonky consultants?

Cleaning is my way of dealing with stress.

Since Friday night, I have washed clothes, washed dishes, cleaned my bathroom, and my kitchen floors.
