    Why not? We can make it happen. We just have to make our elected officials fear us more than they fear doing nothing.

    That’s starting to happen. In past elections, nothing happened when they did nothing, but 2024 broke America Voters. We kicked out MAGA and Schmuck & Jeffries helped them regain power, and the Citizens rebelled, American-style, which means we mobilized the vote. Nearly every special election was bad news for MAGA, as they lost most of them to Democrats, and they were even bad for Dems, since many of them were Socialists.

    Now we are prepared to take back the House and probably the Senate, and we’re doing it with no help from the losers in office. They want us to elect more losers like them, and we aren’t having it. Despite all their efforts, on both sides (my loser DEM Congress Rat actually signed that evil MAGA letter against Socialism, the fucking traitor), angry Socialists are coming to DC with the full endorsement of the Citizens, and any new Congressional leadership will have to commit to punishing MAGA, or they won’t be reelected in 2028, when we’ll vote another round of cowardly Dems.

    The voters are hunting scalps, and we really don’t care if they are MAGAs or Loser Democrats, and our incumbents are already scared. Jeffries won’t commit to Healthcare or Impeachment, but he is acknowledging that the next Democratic Congress will be focused on investigating MAGA.

    These people WILL be punished, or America can no longer continue to exist. This situation where America is just the country where any shithead can come here and abuse and exploit our labor and resources is unsustainable. We have to systematically attack each element of their strategy - MAGA, the Sociopathic Oligarchs, Corporations, law enforcement, the Tax Code, the economy, SCOTUS, etc. - and reconfigure each of them to service the CITIZENS, and not the wealthy.

    After the midterms, we will know if we’re getting what we want if the new Congress eject Schmuck & Jeffries, and replace them with Warriors. We need to start letting our current elected officials know that we expect them to NOT support the two current cowards.

    And when the investigations start, Schmuck & Jeffries should be as deeply investigated as MAGA, because we’ll find out that they’ve been working for MAGA all along. I want to see any corrupt Dems go to jail, too.

      We just have to make our elected officials fear us more than they fear doing nothing. […] That’s starting to happen.

      No it isn’t. You’re still making the mistake of assuming your elections matter when the damage has been done long before you went to the ballot box.

      Wake me up with the USA’s populace wakes up again and actually overthrows its blatant, obvious tyranny like it did 250 years ago. I mean you can go through the Declaration of Independence line by line right now and see each entry reflected in the world around you; 250 years ago this was cause for revolution.

      But unfortunately revolution interferes with getting the latest gadget, watching the antics of dumbasses on reality TV or whatever the Hell else is going on that’s making all y’all miss the enormous problems that are growing ceaselessly in your nation.
