    No wonder voters are fleeing this abomination train wreck known as the Democratic Party. Lies after lies are conjured up to separate Americans so that they can stay in power. Aided by the corrupt media, they have done so much harm to our society and ways of life. We need to put a stake through these fukking traitors and put an end to these demons.

    Way too old. Should also be mentioned that she is a non-voting delegate from DC.

    How often do these egotistical Democrats lose a seat because they refuse to give up their throne? I know this wont be the case here, but it seems to happen more often than not. See the SCJ's.

    When Democrats Act Like…Democrats

    https://www.allsides.com/blog/when-democrats-act-democrats

    excerpt:

    The Democratic insurgency over the Middle East is not the party’s only internal rift: they face equally difficult disagreements on immigration, energy, crime, taxes, transgender issues, and any number of other issues. This is a somewhat predictable feature of the two-party system rather than a bug, and less than a year after losing the White House, it’s not surprising that various factions in the party have different ideas on how to proceed. These quarrels are rarely resolved until the party selects its nominee for the next election, so there is certainly no reason for Democratic partisans to panic.

    But these party divides have gone unaddressed for an unusually long time. The lack of even an abbreviated primary campaign after Joe Biden’s withdrawal from the race last year meant that Democrats did not have the opportunity to address their disagreements before Kamala Harris became their nominee. But in the two previous campaigns, their hunger to defeat Trump in 2020 and their obligation to Hillary Clinton in 2016 artificially suppressed progressive uprisings. So it could be argued that the Democratic Party has not confronted its own unresolved issues since 2008. The fact that the next presidential election will mark a twenty-year gap since such a reconciliation suggests that the type of public reckoning that led to the Clinton and Obama presidencies is long overdue.

    Racist p.o.s. lunatic Strom Thurmond was 100 years old when he retired from the Senate, and then died 6 months later.

    Thurmond led the senate in corruption. He was a terrible corrupt politician. Glad we agree on that.

    No surprise — look at his legacy: Sparked some horrific wars, triggered runaway inflation, committed unprecedented corruption, sacrificed the integrity of the Justice Department to pursue his political opponent. Then pardoned his criminal family and serial liars on the J6 Committee. A legacy of failures and lies.

    Millions are leaving? Tens of millions!

    Where will the Demonic Dems get their votes from now on? The border is closed so they can’t count on illegals anymore. Trans maybe?

    poor Joe may never get that presidential library funded

    Manchin ripped Biden for ‘sending a f—ing check to everyone,’ dishes on ex-prez’s ‘very bad temper’ in new book

    https://nypost.com/2025/09/15/us-ne...shes-on-ex-prezs-very-bad-temper-in-new-book/

    excerpt:

    In his forthcoming book, “Dead Center,” Manchin — the former West Virginia governor who repped the Mountain State for more than 14 years in the Senate — accused prominent Democrats of undermining the system of checks and balances for more than a decade.

    “I don’t say this lightly, but under the leadership of President [Barack] Obama and Majority Leader Harry Reid, and later President Biden and Majority Leader Chuck Schumer, Democrats have systematically tried to weaken the very guardrails that have protected our democracy for generations — all in the name of advancing their agenda,” wrote Manchin, 78, in an excerpt obtained by Punchbowl News.

    Even as they look ahead to midterms, Democrats keep rehashing Biden
    A number of potential 2028 candidates, including Kamala Harris and Pete Buttigieg, have recently criticized Biden for his reelection bid.

    https://wapo.st/3VeYOen

    excerpt:

    The persistent hand-wringing over Biden — nearly eight months after he left the White House — is particularly aggravating to Democrats eager to move on and focus on health care costs, Republican tax breaks for the wealthy and rising economic pressures.

    But some in the party — especially those pondering a 2028 run for the White House — find themselves repeatedly facing questions about whether Biden should have run for reelection and why they did not do more to stop him. Many Democrats are also dreading Harris’s upcoming book tour, which seems certain to center on questions about Biden.

    The really sad thing is, Trump and the Democratic Congress sent even bigger checks to "everyone" (everyone in quotes because some of us didn't qualify for checks, we were being taxed to pay for other people's checks). Trump was not some fiscal conservative. Trump and Biden are by far the most profligate spenders in US Presidential history.
