Chump and his ship of fools

Let's note some BLUESKY reactions.

That last one is US House Rep Eric Swalwell.  And he's right about filing charges of impeachment against Hegseth but it's also true of Chump.  Chump is allowing our national security to be threatened by his appointee who has repeatedly been exposed as a security risk.  What does it take as this point for Chump to remove him?  Learning that his wife is his Russian controller?  What more does he have to do?

One more video on Hegseth.

That's James Carville.  Last night when I was putting in the videos that would go up overnight, I saw this and almost put it up but thought of all the e-mails Martha and Shirley would be reading today.

The videos that go up here?  They're important topics (Hegseth so Carville above) or a friend asked for them to go up.  I can post James -- and have -- without signing off on him.  I know him and have for years.  I think there's line from WILL & GRACE's reboot ("Sweatshop Annie & the Annoying Baby Shower"-- season 9, episode 13) that applies here, Ellen tells Grace (and others at a baby shower), ""You know, Rob's always like, 'We don't see Will and Grace enough.[  And I'm always like, 'We see them the right amount'."

I've called James out for many things over the years and it's not hard to if you pay attention.  Any campaign?  After he crows he was right.  And some used to find his moment where he was right.  But they ignored that he offered many other opinions.  Go look at his commentary on Kamala's campaign and see just how all over the map he was -- any outcome would have allowed him to claim he was right because he offered all these differing opinions.

James can also be actually right.  He can also reach some people, that others can't.  

David Hogg needs to step down from the DNC.  

His little cat fight with James was sad.

It's no longer sad, David's actions.

They are harmful to the Democratic Party.

I'm seeing the same crowd of bad actors who trashed Kamala and helped put Chump in office backing Hogg on BLUESKY.  

BLUESKY is not the world.

TWITTER was not the world.

Hogg wants to primary a long list of Democrats in office and we're hearing 801 reasons why.  Supposedly it's not about age.  But according to David's website it is and according to many of his supporters on BLUESKY it is.

And these idiots on BLUESKY -- as usual -- don't know a damn thing.

I'm actually for a retirement age for members of Congress and that's nothing new.  I've written of it here for two decades and we've covered it at THIRD for two decades.  At THIRD, we started hitting on it hard with Robert Byrd, who was over 90 years ole and removed as Chair of the Senate Appropriations Committee.  We've noted that the deaths of some members in office result in anew campaigns ahead of the normal election cycle and that if they're dying from age that cost should be probably be billed to their estate.  We've focused on the Senate the most because that's a six year term.  The House is a two year term.  If voters want to send someone at death's door into Congress, that's their vote and their gamble.  

Six years is a lot more to gamble on.  We supported Dianne Feinstein's Democratic challenger because we knew she was too old and would likely die in office, which she did.

This is not a new issue for us. 

But it seems like a new one for his BLUESKY fans who really don't know what they're talking about.

And none of whom wants to note that Sainted Bernie Sanders should have retired long ago.

As long as he breathes, he is their excuse and their hero.  When he stops breathing, that'll probably still be the case.  But for those not working on the Bernie farm, the reality is that he speechifies and accomplishes nothing.  He's someone to be amused by, yes, but the Democrats have repeatedly said no to him on a national run. 

But the Davids attacking Schumer and other Democrats on BLUESKY don't say a word about Bernie.

We're getting to a place similar to the summer of 2024.

We knew Chump would destroy this country.  And smoe of us worked our asses off to campaign for Kamala Harris.  Others worked to defeat her -- others on the left -- DSA and its fake ass 'Uncommitted''movement.'

Maybe it's time for you to sit your ass down and shut your damn mouth if you weren't campaigning for Kamala?

Maybe you've enough damn damage for one century?

This country matters to a lot of us, democracy matters to a lot of us.

We've got to win at least one house of Congress in the mid-terms (November 2026).. I want both.  I think both are achievable.

David Hogg is not heping with that.

He's risking that and you have to wonder with the state of the nation right now, with so many lives at risk, White boy can't get his s**t together and wants to risk everything.

He's a blond girl, we get that right?

David's done nothing with his life to garner any attention.  But he's a blond girl.

Many other students were at the same school that got shot up.  Many of them were students of color.

In the '00s, when a child went missing, people began to notice the media coverage or the lack of.  If the missing child was a blond girl, it was wall-to-wall Matt Lauer clucking non-stop.  A child of color?  Crickets. 

And that same racism has benefitted David Hogg.  

But he doesn't want to cop to it.

He's accomplished nothing with his life.  

I thought he'd get involved in the DNC, learn a lot, come back in a year or so with some solid ideas.  Instead, his only idea is the one he's been pimping for years -- kick out the old guys in Congress!!!!

That would apparently make him feel better about himself.  And considering that he looks like Lena Dunham, I can understand his struggle to find some way to feel good about himself.

But, White man, you're putting a lot of lives at risk with your bulls**t.

And Uncommitted and David need to sit this out.

First off, if you've got 20 million to spend on races, you should be using that money for the general election.

Second, you are creating division as we speak within the party -- that's why you need to resign immediately from your DNC office.  That is not what DNC officials are supposed to do.

Third, you're distracting from the very real dangers of Donald Chump.

You want to do your pet cause, go do it in a better election cycle, White boy.

You haven't suffered under Chump.

You're not at risk of deportation, you're not a senior on a fixed income, you're not a Black person or an LGBTQ+ person at risk of being erased and having your rights taken away.

You're not a woman at risk of losing reproductive freedom.

No one is less impacted by Chump's destruction of this country than you are.

Stop gambling with our lives and our rights.

He wants heated, contested primaries with candidates he's going to fund who will rip into the incumbent.

He's stupid and ignorant.

And history does apply here.

We've seen this Tom Hayden style bulls**t before.  

Would Jimmy Carter have been a one-term candidate if John Anderson hadn't run?  Gore in 2000.  We've seen this over and over and we're aware of history.

David has no idea and he's putting us all at risk.

US House Rep Jay Smith is running for re-election and David's Joe Blond is running against him.  To win, Joe Blond destroys him with one charge after another.  Smith wins the primary but is left weakened.  And then the GOP candidate for Congress in that district goes up against a weakened Smith -- probably using many of the attacks that Blond used on Smith (like how the Willie Horton attack on Michael Dukakis actually started in the Dem primary long before Poppy Bush got ahold of it)..  That's how we can lose.

We need to be united.  If this isn't a one-of-a-kind moment in our history, then sure, let's all be David Hogg -- I'll get the knives so we can chop off our noses.

And if this isn't a one-of-a-kind moment in our history, let me know.  I'm doing everything I can online and off to fight back against Chump to the point that I am waking up to run to the bathroom and throw up.  I've got better things to do with my time if this isn't a serious moment in our country's history.

David Hogg needs to immediately step away from the DNC.  If he wants to pursue his idiotic plan on primaries, he can do so, but not as DNC official.  And, no, he can't step 'away' from his group and remain in the DNC.  He has to resign.
