Nicely done! Thoughts are so powerful. No one needs a party to perpetuate beliefs, for the latter predate the former, and are as mixed as there are individuals!
I believe in what RFK jr said; if we're to get beyond all of this, "we must love our children more than we hate each other". As long as MSM encourages us to fight between ourselves, Democrats against Republicans, we can't seem to see what is actually happening to us. Who would have ever believed that the Democratic party is now the party of war and censorship? It's hard to wrap my brain around that reality. Harris recently stated that "freedom of speech of a privilege" and that if Elon Musk doesn't behave himself, that will be taken away from him. I thought freedom of speech was a fundamental principle of our Constitution.
Having been a liberal, democratic activist for over 50 years, this party is unrecognizable to me. A number of friends said me, when Kennedy threw his support to Trump that "his uncle and father must be turning over in their graves" and I replied, I'm sure they've already turned over, seeing what has become of the Democratic party. This is the first time in the history of America where a sitting President pressured the media to censor his political rival. Censorship is spreading around the globe. France, Brazil, the EU commission, the U.S. government. Russia, China, North Korea, many countries in the middle east, haven't had such freedoms for many, many, many years. I felt the first real sting of fear when the keynote speaker at the WEF was Xi Jinping. I fear for all of us.
My understanding is that he literally had no other choice. Since Harris wouldn't consider taking a meeting with him, IF he wanted any chance to get his plans implemented, he had to make a deal with the devil. My question - can a narcissistic sociopath be expected to keep his promises? I will not give up hope. It certainly would be an amazing legacy for him but is that sufficient to follow through on policies that would not make his financial supporters happy? Former Republicans who are heavily invested into the military industrial complex are joining Harris in droves. I'm sure the party line will be that they chose to jump ship because they fear what Trump might do. Obviously these are the very guys who supported him during his Presidency. It proves to me that Harris and our cherished Democratic party are now the party of war. That will never sit right with me. I can no longer accept their denial of the harm that our children are experiencing, with chronic disease reaching 60% among our youngest citizens. Shame on all of them.
I will look forward to your psychological analysis of Bobby's decision.
• SCOTT RITTER: “Our government now ignores the Constitution; violates their oath.”
• HENRY BALDENAR: “Bolivia is fed up with the West and Bretton Woods; will break free from U.S. and join BRICS.”
• SCOTT RITTER: “We need a government that will earn our vote; by showing they will stop nuclear war.”
• JACK GILROY: “U.S. DEPARTMENT OF DEFENSE has been the U.S. DEPARTMENT OF WAR. Veterans for Peace is asking job seekers to pledge: ‘I WILL NEVER WORK FOR A WARRING COMPANY’.”
Also need instant runoff, ranked choice voting, Agree with Scott about earning my vote. BRICS gives me hope - need counterbalance to domination. Thanks for all this and would like to see your constitution.

Well done. We have inherited "One empire, under surveillance, with deceit and oppression for all."
Defiance, not compliance! We refuse to BARE arms!

Thanks Michelle. I will be writing a psychological analysis of Bobby's decision. Writing is slow. Good answer to your friends.
