US Democracy 101..

The United States is filled with "PURPLE" voting districts.

Meaning, they swing from red(Repub) to blue(Dems) based on today's political winds.

Elections in these purple swing districts are often decided by 2-5% when determining the electoral victor.

Sadly, Democrats lose so many elections by 1-2% or similar.

Thus proving,

Is 2-5% such a hurdle for our Democratic Party to overcome?

Hell no!

Fellow Democrats, get aggressive in this upcoming midterm election.

Putin, Trump, and the GOP are despotic brothers in arms.

Teach the US people that fact.

Sway the 5% needed to win these purple districts.

Democrats, take the gloves off vs the GQP in the upcoming midterm elections.

I've been politically active for 51 years and have seen us lose too fucking many 2% electoral losses.

So many fine Democrats have lost because of 1%.

Fire up our base and fire up swing voters.

It can be done.

A message I'd like to see Democrats campaign on in the upcoming election season.

Vote or Republicans will take that right away from you. Stop the Republican Party's nationwide mission to restrict your right to vote.

Ask voters,

Why do you think they are trying to prevent you from voting?

Putin hates democracy. Republicans hate democracy. See the connection?

Will you allow Republicans to stop you from voting?

.....................................

I would love to see our party run ads that expose the GQP to voters on social media YT, IG, FB etc and on TV.

We have to get aggressive in this upcoming midterm, to avoid an election day slaughter in the midterms and hopefully maintain Dem majorities.

Today, we saw why EVERY. VOTE. MATTERS.

Huge congrats to USSC Justice Brown Jackson on her historic confirmation to the highest court in the land.

I loved her nomination by President Biden. Thank you, Joe!!!

I'm fucking disgusted by the RACIST GQP's near-unanimous opposition to her confirmation.

However, I thank the few Republicans that joined us and voted for her confirmation.

Her confirmation is the result of our Democratic Party's razor thin majorities. (Senate Majority for her confirmation)

We can now clearly see the importance of every vote.

High voter turnout helps the Democratic Party.

I wasn't born with enough middle fingers for the RACIST Republicans that opposed her confirmation on this historic day.

Biden: Putin should face war crimes trial for Bucha

Source: AP

WASHINGTON (AP) — President Joe Biden on Monday called for war crimes trial against Russia President Vladimir Putin and said he’d seek more sanctions after reported atrocities in Ukraine.

“You saw what happened in Bucha,” Biden said. He added that Putin “is a war criminal”

Biden’s comments to reporters came after Ukraine President Volodymyr Zelenskyy visited Bucha, one of the towns surrounding Kyiv where Ukrainian officials say the bodies of civilians have been found. Zelenskyy called the Russian actions “genocide” and called for the West to apply tougher sanctions against Russia.

The bodies of 410 civilians have been removed from Kyiv-area towns that were recently retaken from Russian forces, Ukraine’s prosecutor-general, Iryna Venediktova, said. Associated Press journalists saw the bodies of at least 21 people in various spots around Bucha, northwest of the capital.
