America needs someone to man up and take Trump out of the White House, and I hope Gavin Newsome takes charge. America’s stability is at great risk. We’re whirling around in Trump’s uncontrollable insanity, and we’re at risk of dire consequences like we’ve never faced in U.S. history.
Too bad you couldn’t vote for those over qualified, sane women presidential candidates. There is way more broken in the USA than just the Trump regime.
That’s the point. It wasn’t ‘fine’ hence the reason the democrats lost. The just couldn’t bring themselves to vote for a female-so likely didn’t vote at all - becoming part of the 90 million who sat on their couch, so they could claim they didn’t vote for ‘him’

CORRUPT DUOPOLY Your Democratic party leaders are playing you in the same way that Republicans fool their voters. They say there are only 2 choices – this is a lie. The Democratic and Republican Party represent the interests of their wealthy donors. In a 2015 interview, former President Jimmy Carter stated that the United States is now "an oligarchy with unlimited political bribery" due to the Citizens United v. FEC ruling which effectively removed limits on donations to political candidates. If you think your views matter, read the Princeton study by Gilens and Page. What did this neoliberal oligarchy do? As Bernie Sanders said, “In the last 50 years, there has been a $50 trillion transfer of wealth from the bottom 90% to the top 1%” Did voters choose this? Let me offer two examples that demonstrate the inability of the corrupt duopoly to respond as a democracy would. The majority of Americans want the genocide in Gaza to end now and similarly a majority demand universal medicare. In a democracy, these two demands would be met. In an oligarchy these demands can be ignored. Still think you live in a democracy? When the Democratic party leaders change laws to block competition from third parties, you know they chose oligarchy over democracy. Harris lost to Trump because the Democratic Party failed to earn enough votes. This outcome is the fault of the Democratic Party for choosing to abandon the working class, for enacting neoliberal legislation to benefit the rich and for supporting Israel's genocide. If you believe in democracy, you would support the right of all voters to nominate and vote for the candidate that best represents their values. You would not create financial and legal barriers to block competition. We can agree I will never, ever vote for a Zionist politician who supports genocide. If you want more votes support International Humanitarian Law and comply with the ICJ request to stop all arms shipments to Israel. The Democratic and Republican party are war parties that do not represent my values. Greens represent the interests of working Americans and Greens are working to restore democracy. Just 5 percent of the national vote for the Green Party ticket can change the game for American politics. It will qualify the Green Party for recognition as an official national party and for federal funding proportional to the amount of votes received. It would also secure ballot access in states that automatically grant ballot status if the presidential candidate receives the state designated percentage. This will launch the green party over the undemocratic barriers to ballot access for independent parties in many states and help the Green Party lay the groundwork for a competitive challenge to the two-party system and disrupt the corporate playground.”says Chas Frederick. Vote for democracy! Vote Green
It has been a ton of years since I was a Californian... but still I've paid a lot of attention to Newsom. A lot of what he's said I strongly disagree with but now, for once I'm joining the Gavin camp. He is so right, the Dem Party has to grow a pair, they have to begin showing some strength, stand up and begin taking an aggressive, unapologetic posture. Today's lecture is a grand starting place and if someone doesn't begin understanding and backing Newsom's view then we won't have a long list of possible candidates for 2028 we'll have just one.
Ossof is a Netanyahu shill who just stopped taking Zionist bribes because he and Tel Aviv know people are starting to pay attention. He and Newsom and Talarico are on the dole from Israel and that's not about to change even if AIPAC reroutes its normal funding patterns in order to avoid detection.
A vote for these genocidal turkeys is another vote for dead babies in Gaza and more bombed schools in Iran.
I beg to differ. Most Americans make a distinction between the Israeli people and the Israeli leadership, just as most countries do between the American people and the MAGA Trump socialists (let’s make the rich richer and disrespect working people who elected him.) Both countries have monumentally evil warmongering leaders.
It is possible to befriend a group and detest that group’s current leadership.
You know, I was going to let this go, because I don’t want to have one more Zionist screaming “Nazi” at me, but, assuming you are genuinely interested, I quote below:
“
A Penn State University poll conducted in March 2025 reported that 82% of Jewish Israelis support the forced expulsion of Palestinians from Gaza, while 47% agreed that the military should kill all inhabitants in a conquered enemy city.
Genocide Watch +1
Survey Findings on Displacement and Military Action
82% of Jewish Israeli respondents supported the forced transfer or expulsion of Gaza residents to other countries. Other concurrent polling by Tel Aviv University recorded lower figures, showing 53% support among Jewish respondents and 45% of the total population including Arab citizens.
Total Destruction Tactics: In the Penn State University survey, 47% of Jewish Israelis agreed with a biblical analogy asking if the army should kill all inhabitants when conquering an enemy city.
Genocide Watch +1
Expulsion of Arab Citizens: The same poll found that 56% of Jewish Israelis supported the forced transfer of Palestinian citizens of Israel.
Genocide Watch +1
“
I hasten to add that our Jewish neighbors in America are not included in this poll. A significant minority here regard Israeli military actions in Gaza as “genocide”.
Yes. Yes. Yes. Please every Democrat needs to read Sarah Longwell's book "How to eat an Elephant one voter at a time." Democrats have been screaming we want a fighter. We need fighters. That's all we've been asking for is someone to call out all of the corruption. To call out all the scams. To call out all the cruelty. I don't care who does it. But every Democrat running in every election should be pointing out every illegal thing this administration has done. Every cruel thing it's done like taking food from children taking medical help from elderly and children and stealing food from starving children in other countries. Why isn't every Democrats screaming. We don't have good communicators and the old Democratic guard is useless as well as fragile as well as terrible communicators. Every one of them needs to get over the fact there's social Democrats running for office. If the tent is not big enough for people who want Medicare for all they better get out of the way because they're going to be run over.
If that doesn’t put Gavin ahead in the race for ’28, I don’t know what does. Everyone else in contention needs to come up with something equal or better… NOW!
This is all sounds great and is exactly what should happen. I have read several times from a number of well-respected sources and people (including Bernie) that getting big money out of the game is the only way to prevent this from happening again. The War Chests as Americans call them. As an outsider looking in, it sounds like a smart idea.
The Democratic old guard doesn’t seem to think so though. Again from what I’ve read, it’s one of the reasons they’re putting down the new breed of Democrats. The infighting does not help the cause at all and it says a lot about the party.
I also read that when Newsom was asked about the Super PACs and whether he would make use of them, he sidestepped the entire question. Please understand I have a lot of respect for him and his pushback with IQ47, but I’m not so sure sidestepping was the right decision. Praying for success in the midterms.
America’s criminal President just offered American citizens a $5,000 bribe to vote for Republicans in the midterm elections. Because paying for votes is a criminal act, the bribes—promised to be delivered after the election results are published—will never be paid. There are no laws prohibiting Donald Trump—or any other sleazy politician—from lying.
The compulsive liar, Donald Trump, and his Republican enablers were unable to lie to the United States Court of Appeals. The Court denied their attempt to suppress the Democratic vote by blocking the distribution of ballots by mail in the midterm elections.
Republicans, who know that unless they cheat, they will be defeated in the midterm elections, have appealed the ruling to the Supreme Court—a thoroughly corrupt institution with a history of ignoring the Constitutional rights of American citizens and subordinating the Constitutional powers of the Congressional and Judicial branches to the whims of the convicted criminal, Donald Trump.
In a desperate attempt to keep them from voting, Texas Republicans have closed 92 precincts previously serving women, students, and People of Color.
Republicans have made clear their intent to intimidate voters by posting partisan “election monitors” in each precinct.
The propaganda spewed by Trump and his enablers cannot coverup the fact that Republicans are using physical violence in a desperate attempt to stay in power. Federal agents are dispatched by Donald Trump, Todd Blanche, Markwayne Mullins, Kash Patel, Tom Homan, and Stephen Miller to crush Americans who expose the regime’s criminal acts.
ICE thugs—without warrants, without trials, and in obvious violation of the Constitution and laws of the USA—have attacked, maimed, kidnapped, incarcerated, and/or deported hundreds of American citizens. They have also murdered both citizens and non-citizens.
ICE Bounty Hunters—encouraged by their racist supervisors—routinely employ violence to fill their quota of brown-skin-prey. And sometimes, because they know Trump has their backs, they murder—reminding Americans that in a Racist-Trump-Kleptocracy, Republican Fascists believe they are above the law.
More than two of every three Americans recognize that Trump is a liar, thief, grifter, fraudster, racist, sexual predator, and war criminal. This supermajority will win the midterm elections by blocking passage of Trump’s viciously racist, (and purposely misogynistic), “Save America Act”—a legislative obscenity specifically drafted to disenfranchise women and People of Color.
The American people will not rest until Trump—and his Neo-Nazi enablers—are removed from office, prosecuted for treason, convicted, and punished as dictated by the Constitution.
All these guys have skeletons, our politics have been suspect for years but this regime is the absolute worst. Reagan may have been, Bushes were, and now the entire GOP is complicit in the grift. Democrats can’t say they have been perfect but they never hurt the American people like this.
It saddens me to say this, Democrats have no leadership. Leader of the House Democratic Caucus & House Minority, Leader of the Senate Democratic Caucus, those #2 have proven to be worthless… I wouldn’t put my trust in either one of them! Taking the high road is absolutely over, you can’t take the high road with Trump & his goons. What Governor Newsome expressed in this article, I agree…
This is what I've wanted from every Democrat who's elected at any level. A full on frontal attack against all of these criminal activities which are now norm for Redumlicans. Accountability for every single detail. Loud, unapologetic confrontation against it all. We won't return to the good ol days of transparent, responsible government overnight or if ever but from the dog catcher up to the Senate minority leader I want to see a vicious, LOUD dogfight against any criminal activities they are confronted with until it is publicly addressed or people are arrested.
At the tail end of the Qing dynasty, the Empress Dowager Cixi stole money from Navy and built a stone boat for her birthday celebration in the Summer Place. The boat is still there to be visited by tourists, Qing dynasty lost the fight on the sea with Japan, twice, then followed by the total collapse of the last empire of China, not long after that beautiful stone boat was built.
Sergey Brin is spending a buttload of CASH on ads to defeat California Proposition 40, a Wealth Tax. Bought politicians like Newsom, Bracera & Hilton have appeared in the ads. Brin should just pay his damn taxes.
The blue states have got to stop sending our federal tax dollars to this fascist regime. Our country is being looted in real time and we are still helping to fund the corruption! California can lead the way on this.
Also, the states need a public funding option. The federal banking system is on the brink of collapse. We are literally buying back our own debt because no one else will—and can you blame them? Other countries have to protect themselves from the United States. Remove the Regime!
America needs someone to man up and take Trump out of the White House, and I hope Gavin Newsome takes charge. America’s stability is at great risk. We’re whirling around in Trump’s uncontrollable insanity, and we’re at risk of dire consequences like we’ve never faced in U.S. history.
Too bad you couldn’t vote for those over qualified, sane women presidential candidates. There is way more broken in the USA than just the Trump regime.
That’s been done in 2 of the last 3 presidential elections and we’ve been defeated. Our country can’t afford a loss to the corrupt red party again.
That’s the point. It wasn’t ‘fine’ hence the reason the democrats lost. The just couldn’t bring themselves to vote for a female-so likely didn’t vote at all - becoming part of the 90 million who sat on their couch, so they could claim they didn’t vote for ‘him’

Thank you Moony! My thoughts exactly. Well said.
The book is thought provoking, and it was fun, frustrating and enlightening to hear the author, a former Republican,read it.
amerikkka does NOT have the “luxury” of waiting until 2028 to take action. Something must be done NOW
If that doesn’t put Gavin ahead in the race for ’28, I don’t know what does. Everyone else in contention needs to come up with something equal or better… NOW!
