Cheney was no dope.No, more than that, they need a congress and senate who have figured out that this monster DHS needs to be dismantled. I don't know if they can get there from here.
And much as I'd like to think that Bush Jr was a criminal mastermind, I agree that it was probably 'merely' an unfortunate response to 9/11.
That may be the first thing, and only thing that can happen if Biden gets in. But that's only the beginning of what needs to happen. It's unfortunate, imo, that they chose Biden because he'll probably f*** up - even if he wins - and leave an opening for a worse right wing figure in 2024. I hope not. He's the best option for now, unfortunately. I think the DNC made another mistake though. They didn't "repent" after Hillary - they made another similar choice. I hope he wins because anything better than Trump, is still better than Trump. But it's not the best they could do.No, more than that, they need a congress and senate who have figured out that this monster DHS needs to be dismantled.

I remember that.No ... but he has a dark side. Recall I faced this guy accross a corporate meeting table with the infamous AJ Dunlap.
Then sad to say, I ended up working for him for a short time when he bought the debris of my primary employer that sold out for a great price and dumped 8000 employees!
Recall power corrupts ... creating underdogs looking up solutions from a subtle position ... that's politics from the altar ...
I am one who sees things approaching. Many years ago I saw the police state in its earliest stage. That police state is now full grown and ready to take control of the population.
Inannawhimsey do you like in the USA?
i listened to an interesting point yesterday about Portland and media created hype in general. By a guy in CNN called Smerconish
his point was basically that media creates panic, panic then creates more panic and at the end of it all looking back the panic was over nothing. Discussed the year of the shark, the tourist death in DR, and now Portland
we see a small section of Portland through the lens of a strategically placed camera. So we only see what we are meant to see By media
i had a friend who lived in Belfast during the tough times at the end of the 70s early 80’s. She spoke of how it was hard to buy things. Stores wouldn’t keep stock in case of vandalism. But in fact most of the “troubles” as she called it were in a very small area of a few blocks. Yet our media made it seem like Belfast was on fire.
Another interview/ discussion for Jacobin Magazine, Michael Brooks did shortly before he died (he was working a lot before he suddenly died. It’s weird to see all these clips published posthumously) - with Ana Kasparian of Young Turks - they are debunking Tim Pool’s commentary of what happened in Portland.
(PS Good to see the federal militia men are mostly gone and the protests were peaceful again.)
Thank you, hunI’m not actually sure why you’re going to the protests at this point, but be careful, be safe.
Ahh, when you were still on Earth, beloved
What a heady time that was
All that amazing protest art
The boarded up businesses
Graffitti everywhere
The DIY camp in the daytime
The nightly clashes (thank goodness the Big Guns were never brought in)
The lingering tear gas so strong we had to wear two masks lol
That Extinction Rebellion booth and you were interested up until the point when he said they needed people willing to be arrested lol
I was so hurt what had happened to your hometown
It is such a vibrant and lovely place
Thanks to you, thanks to you, thanks to you
Looking forward to seeing you in person
You must be having such a grand and marvy time
