I hope you're right. 🙏
I'm less concerned about the presidential race (dangerously optimistic, maybe) and much more concerned about the congressional races. That's where all the hate is brewing and where progressives generally lose focus.
Gotta fix those state legislatures and courts.

Paulette Hawkins @PauletteGrantHawkinsThis analysis shows a near historic landslide for Biden, so yes, it also bodes extremely well for Democratic chances in the House and Senate.02:22 PM - Apr 28, 2024

Yeah, the disinformation machine is revving up as the elections approach. All people really need to do is trust their memories. Don't let the machine persuade you to forget what you have already experienced.
Now is not the time to bitch, moan, and sit on your ass. Fight for what you believe in.

Not only is it embarrassing, it is actually consistent with past US govt policy.
Look at all the businessmen who became wealthy supporting the Nazi's in the 30's and 40's. Many of those same families (the Koch brothers come to mind) still fund efforts to undermine democracy.
I am not surprised.

Elon Musk, StarLink, SpaceX should not be allowed to bid for government contracts, due to Musk's unrestrained ability to push nazi, Russian, and White Supremacy views.

Oh yeah. Everyone seems to forget all the highly suspicious activity and rumors swirling around the FBI NY office at the time.
From Rudy's ties to "law enforcement", to that office "forcing" Comey to reopen the emails investigation, to Comey's overall disturbing behavior.
It all stinks.

Trump's dalliances with Stormy Daniels and Karen McDougal weren't the only things kept quiet before the 2016 election.

In the 1980s we failed to push back against Big Oil and the one real chance we had for our grands to have a safe planet.
Now Big Oil demands more for its billionaires so they bought Trump.
We push back this time or not only will there be no democracy, there will be no humans on this hot planet.

Been comfortable in front of crowds/audiences since my acting days in Jr High School. Writing has always come naturally to me.
But just like anything else, it takes practice. The more you practice (do it) the easier and more natural it becomes.
Just collect your thoughts and let it rip.

I've been railing against this "news" source for 8+ years once I realized it was pro-Trump. And, yeah, I've heard all the excuses about good investigative reporting, yada, yada.
Maybe so, but the brand stinks. Shut it down.

A president is equally enhanced or crippled by his cabinet and close advisors. I want to believe that he's been getting incredibly bad advice.
I just hope he wins reelection with a strong congressional mandate that will allow us to see what Joe Biden is really all about.
