This country sucks and partly it's because people allow Chuck to be this fucking stupid

I just watched the Last Week Tonight online video this week and
Fuck Chuck Schumer. That dude invented a fake family that can't be satisfied with anything Democrats are expected to accomplish and he spent his entire political career chasing their fictional votes. Making policy to keep their interest. A fake family that hates Democrats.

I wasn't watching closely, but I can safely say that "Revenge of the Sith" hits different now, in 2025.
They were saying the quiet part out loud all over the place, and not enough action was taken. Way too familiar
Hey, USA citizens. I understand that some of you are excited about Gavin Newsom talking trash to Trump. I don't want you to forget that Newsom is a racist, bigoted transphobe, who likes using eugenics on homeless folks, supports Israeli genocide & is a general POS of a human. Don't fucking trash people who hate that muthafucking POS bigot. Trash the shitass #DNC who let super rich bigots like him get into power in the first place. Your BLUE is super sick & they accept bribes from same jerks as GOP.
We have similar problems in Canada with no real strong left to fight back against a bunch of neoliberal & fascist political parties.
So - the people have to be the huge village that fights back.
I saw people protesting at the Porter County Courthouse in Valparaiso earlier today.
“Officials in #Chicago are bracing for a major federal immigration enforcement operation that could begin as soon as this week, with the city’s mayor signing an order over the weekend aimed at resisting the #Trump administration’s planned crackdown.”

- How to have meaningful conversations with voters

@jaystephens @benroyce @mason @erikcats Personally I don't see how this ain't ending in Trumpists getting "Nuremberg'd" in any positive scenario.
- I wish not for #REFORUSA to become necessary, but then again I'd rather have it happen quickly with the least possible bloodshed than having the Potomac sound being turned into a meatgrinder!
Anyone who believes #Trump and his cronies will peacefully and calmly transition power over to a [hopefully #democractic] successor (or even allow free #elections as per #OSCE standard) is in complete denial of the fact that #Project2025 is in full motion and that Trump with his cabinet are literally "#Speedrunning" #Hitler's Power Grab (1933-1934)...
- I hope to be proven wrong but I'm not gonna gaslight everyone into believing this is the case.

Traditional #Medicare to use AI to approve or deny coverage pre-approval of medical procedures, AI companies will be paid based on denials...The AI firms have an incentive to say "no" to coverage because of the direct payments they make for each denial. Some procedures should mostly be AI processed only. #USPol
