When the history of this era is written, there will be an ENTIRE CHAPTER about the everyday citizen/patriots who exercised their First Amendment rights to stand up & shout down these fascist politicians. Exposing them as enablers of dictatorship. And turning public opinion against the regime.

Blue Wave on the way! Iowa Dems flip a state Senate seat which Trump had won by 11 points. A HUGE upset! But, there's more. The Virginia Dems have a 1 seat majority in the state house. To win more seats, volunteers and donors are needed for the 11.4.25 election. Join the wave at vademocrats.org
HUGE FLIP: Democrat Catelin Drey wins deep-red state Senate seat in Iowa, breaking the GOP's supermajority.
Drey won by 11 points in a district Donald Trump carried by 11 points last year. It's another massive overperformance. The Iowa GOP should be very worried for the midterms.
Our full writeup:
Iowa Democrats win massive upset to break GOP supermajority
Catelin Drey's victory may portend more good news for Democrats next year

All true, unlike Trumps name calling.

Yes, and if Dems WIN BIG in 2026 and 2028, it would be wise to pursue anti trust breakups against these TV companies which dominate these markets. The GOP is really gonna be upset if Dems ever flex power as Trump has done.

Obama was fond of saying America was a 60/40 nation in agreement with Democratic values and policies. I agree with that. But our Dem communication 'consultants' are absolutely terrible. Almost makes me think they want us to lose so they can keep charging us fees - election after election. 😀

OMG!

Yes, conservative pre internet media is a source of disinformation. But BIG TECH is what really pushed us over the edge. The rise of social media (and now AI) strongly tracks with the rise of fascism all over the world. The solution is remove liability protection (Section 230) from BIG TECH.
