The No Kings protest against Trump was a stunning success, but it needs to be mobilized into a majority movement that is willing to take on and replace the oligarchy and failed establishment.
Great program...I am 91 years old and will share this program with my friends.
As much as I appreciate what many of the Democratic leaders have done over the years...it is way past time for a change and the current situation is and has been on a dead end for too long. I have been crying to those who will listen to fight for those leaders who have already shown us they DO have the fire in the belly that motivates them and others...I am tired of being bored by our current. leaders. Wake up!
Man. I'm 44. Disabled. Poor. Jewish. Uneducated. But white! I stood next to a lot of old affluent gray haired pan blanco hippies turned luxury-homeowners in San Luis Obispo County for No Kings march. These people could afford a lawyer when they get mouthy with the sheriffs. They don't worry about their next meal. Or their mortgage. Or the taxes on the home they leave to their kids. The people we need protesting are people like me who have everything to lose, and many of us have already lost much, most, or all of it anyways. We need to speak up now! Talk about needing to make room for progress... I'm glad these people showed up, but holy crap, what will we do when the people who have the most to lose are already lost?
Sarah Kendzior has been writing about the worldwide crime establishment for years and nobody is listening to her. Elected Democrats don't listen to her either. Nancy Pelosi shuts AOC down at every turn when she should embrace her and Bernie Sanders. I've been in the Democrat Party for 62 years and I'm done with them.
MAGA is reaching out to Black and Other brown folks right now to get them to join them for the next election, while Democrats and others are at “No Kings” rallies. Where is the 3rd party?
Waj, I wrote a message to Slotkin telling her exactly what I thought of her comments in a NY Times interview, where she blabbed on about alpha energy.
But, Waj, if the people want authenticity, why did the elect the least authentic human being in American presidential history? The voted for him, not because they seek authenticity, but because they are ignorant and selfish. I think you are a great person, but I think you are wrong to believe that "we" represent the majority in the US. You are well informed, which puts you firmly in a fringe group of Americans.
What is often missing from discussions about where we are and where we need to go is recognition of the FACT that we are where we are because of the ignorance and disengagement of voters. Most Americans know little about government, politics, economics, and other things that are necessary for responsible voting.
If we don't find a way to get Americans to care about being not just "informed," but well and accurately informed, then when Trump is gone some other dishonest, corrupt, faux populist will dupe them and we won't make any progress.

Great conversation; Waj Ali is the man .

I’ve been for 38 years and I’m done too. I was gaslit about Biden and they are unable to move forward.

The Dems are impotent!! Schumer and Jeffries are bought and sold! As was Pelosi!

Thought provoking..I must ponder.
AIPAC has given many dems money, now I hear they are making strong demands of these recipients to stand with Netanyahu. This needs to stop!!
Remember the essay by Schumer who praised all the good work being done in the senators gym - when you sweat together or some shit 🤣🤣🤣
America is NOT A GERONTOCRACY
