With then Pres. Trump leading an insurrection, VP in hiding, we had Madam President on the phone

giving orders along with Senate Leader Schumer calling out the National Guard from surrounding districts.

We also have the videos to prove it!!

Anyone else feel that our candidates need to talk more about saving our democracy in these debates?

I know that most of the moderators are steering question toward inflation, crime, etc...all the GOP talking points and the issues they believe hurt Biden the most...almost like they dislike Biden for some reason. But none of that shit will matter if we lose the voice of MOST of the people to the fascist-leaning GOP in the House and Senate. The J6 Committee has given us a golden opportunity press the issue to save our Republic, our democracy, but our candidates do not seem to do a good job of reframing moderator questions to link all the other issue to the overriding issue of losing our ability to vote for our best interests and have that vote counted. After yesterday's Hearing our folks should be out there saying something like:

"Sure, inflation, crime, jobs, the environment are ALL important issues to deal with and our President Biden has been doing the work with a lot success to deal with all those issues. BUT voters need to understand that if we lose our democracy and the institutions that are the pillars of our stability in the face of our enemies at home and abroad, more powerful criminal will be running our government and the corporate forces that are hurting us now will continue to raise prices and interests rates at the same time while average citizens will be at each other's throats just trying to survive." Ok. so this might be a little over the top but you get my drift. At least REMIND voters that Biden's rescue was passed without a single GOP vote.

I am so tired of debate moderators asking ridiculous questions that might evoke sensational headlines the next day.

All I can say about Warnock is that he needs to learn to fight back and pump the accomplishments of

Biden's agenda. He was a little weak to me. Maybe because i thought that he should have made mince meat out of ignorant Walker. Warnock did just ok, but it wasn't a knock out. Tell me I am wrong.

Time for Garland to have "the Talk" with the FBI.


If you feel the election was stolen and Biden is not the legitimate President or that you can no longer be objective in your sworn oath to the Constitution, you many turn in your weapon and badge without recrimination by on or before November 1...no questions asked, no loss of pay or benefits. You are hereby on notice that the DOJ will begin, in earnest, a thorough investigation into the allegations of malfeasance in the line of duty regarding ALL situations related to January 6 insurrection.

Time to get the message out there DOJ.

It may be just me but I believe there are a lot of privileged, powerful, wealthy people who

ought to feel totally betrayed, embarrassed, ashamed, regretful, foolish, defrauded, and angry about having put so much of their wealth and reputation behind an ignorant, cowardly fascist like Trump. But they won't admit to those feelings even if they have them because they suffer from affluenza and were a real part of Trump's fiendish cult themselves.

And now, for having been exposed for what they really are, they will set out to exact punishment on the rest of us who only have the power of our votes (if we are allowed to use it) to fight back. They will continue to exact economic and social punishment on us for being less powerful but smarter, kinder, more compassionate, more honest, more patriotic, and more fearless than they.

We are proud of our leaders Pelosi and Schumer and how they showed real leadership under duress on Jan 6. Hats off to them and even Mitch and Pence who insisted on going back to finish their Constitutional duties at the risk of possible death.

We know who we are and we now know exactly who they are. We must be as fearless as our leaders and carry out or duty to vote the bastards out.

THANK YOU J6 COMMITTEE FOR A JOB WELL DONE!!!

Inflation is top of everyone's list of concerns, mine too. BUT inflation can go up and down and

depends on what corporate greed decides among other things. Abortion ban is not going up and down mainly red states. The women there know two things: abortion bans are not going away unless we have Dems in control of both chambers. If we do not have a viable democracy, inflation is the least of our worries., They have taken away abortion. Don't let them take away our VOTE!
