USAID is not the province of leftists nor is it fair to say only leftists care about others. In fact some of the biggest recipients of USAID dollars are religious organizations such as Catholic Relief Services and Samaritan's Purse.

Now Catholic Relief Services has been forced to stop helpful operations while Samaritan's Purse (run by Trump ally, Franklin Graham) has received "a waiver" for their work to continue but other helpful groups have not.

That David Axelrod, Rahm Emanuel, and James Carville agree to sell out a core Democratic in initiative just shows to me, they have never been with us and they're just playing a game. Carville was happy to lead Clinton into ReaganLite and ditch the social progress toward inclusion and equality. "Ending welfare as we've known it" was just the same response to Reagan's"welfare Queens as this response by the the 3 jokers to Trump's attempt to end JFK's legacy.

I think their entire business at this point is simply confidently predicting victory before elections to raise funds then getting booked on the lecture circuit to say "I told you so!". I agree with you they are not particularly helpful.

Ta, Robyn. Drag that sick fuck out by his hairplugs, arrest him, charge him, indict him, try, and convict him. Then seize his assets and deport him to Seth Effrick. Let them deal with their shit.

My go to piss off conservatives question on this is “what does USAID stand for?” “No,

That’s not it. How can you be so against it if you don’t even know what it does? Because apparently I have to pass a gun anatomy course before I can say that we have too many of them.”

David Axelrod, Rahm Emanuel, and James Carville need to STFU - I'm not interested in hearing from men who stopped having original ideas 20 years ago.

No compromise on A GODDAMN THING until the 2026 election is over.

One thing I've always had trouble telling is when people say "this is a distraction. he's really good at distractions. focus on the important part." Okay. but how do you choose which of his horrible acts are distractions and which are the ones we're supposed to focus on? Is draining the reservoirs in CA a distraction, even if/when it leads to food shortages next winter? It's _all_ like that. He's a cat 5 hurricane spawning EF 5 tornados, and I don't like the looks of that growing tropical storm behind him.

Feeling less and less like the “conspiracy theorist” people who talk & write like me about interference with the U.S. national electoral cyber infrastructure after MVP Harris wrote in her book that the Senate never closed the hole the Russians blew in that U.S. national electoral cyber infrastructure in 2016 because Mitch McConnell wouldn’t let the bill on the floor in 2018.

I wish people understood that they don’t have to understand computer science and engineering down to the bottom to initiate an investigation into the cheating two people like Donald and Elon not only have done all their lives, but also admitted to ("Elon is so good with the vote computers" from the podium? "Donald has to win or I'm going to jail" on television?).

I also wish they understood that it *doesn’t have to be* interference via Starlink, but it COULD have been … in addition to which there could have been (and, basically, was) MORE THAN ONE KIND of interference (corroboration of which investigative journalist Greg Palast has boatloads).

I mean – we have people – responsible, elected people in authority – in other countries who understand that the subject is at least worth an inquiry (see below).

But people here (White people in authority, at least) would, it appears, rather BE fools permanently than even temporarily LOOK LIKE fools – which is something the propagandists supporting Putin and Orban (who also taught Donald & his henchpeople their game, since Merrick Garland failed to arrest Donald under the Logan Act for those “little visits”) understand all too well.

People need to know that BOTH U.S. REPRESENTATIVES *AND* CANADIAN OFFICIALS ARE CALLING FOR INVESTIGATIONS INTO ELECTION INTERFERENCE BY ELON MUSK

Everybody should also know that Charlie Kirk is out there telling a slightly different set of lies about this on X as we speak because when they have to cover up something this dirty on a national scale, the fascists don’t always get all their lies straight ahead of time

I feel bad that I'm at the point where I wonder if some in the Dem party have been politicians so long that instead of seeing all of this as bad, and needs to be stopped, that they see the burning fire and smile, thinking that this will make more people vote for Dems in the mid terms...because "we aren't as bad as them". Almost like they want Americans to suffer, meaning Dems as well, because that makes the next round of political Monopoly that much better for the Dems and for them monetarily...I don't even know where to go now that while the Dems are not as bad as what is happening right now...holy hell if they are going to continue the BS reach across the aisle, or in Fetterman's case, just fucking joining them...the line blurs between the parties...

Fetterman is a special case

People were warned about him

It’s just that the people doing the warning were shouted down (with the usual White “LALALACAN’T HEAR YOU” and were not heard

Actually England and France did declare war on Germany and then promptly did nothing for eight months. However your analogy holds as the DNC is following the same playbook.
