A few political figures have earned the right to be known by initials. JFK, LBJ, and DJT are a few, and I never felt that Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez has done anything in her time in Washington to earn her three-letter logo. I also believe she took on her full name for political merit, which is why … Read more
The November election results are still over two months away, but VPR (I refused to use the ridiculous name Vermont Public, which sounds like a restroom, so maybe it fits after all) is reporting Democrats have already settled on who will be Speaker of the House come January.: Lori Houghton (D-Essex Junction). Well, isn’t that … Read more
And not just because that’s the only thing they are good at. I’ve been sitting on this story for weeks now. It was going to be a GrokTALK!, then a Morning Update, and then I wasn’t sure if either or neither. It’s a great topic, so please make time to check out both links, but … Read more
The Progressive mind is a dangerous space for a conservative to venture into, but it is essential if we are to understand the newest political force since the Tea Party. The biggest difference between the Tea Party and the Democratic Socialists of America is that the Tea Party wanted the country to come back to … Read more
Democratic gubernatorial nominee Amanda Janoo heads a group of Vermont Progressive Party-endorsed candidates who advanced in the Aug. 11 primary and are now headed to the November general election, according to Ballotpedia.com. Janoo, who narrowly defeated Aly Richards for the Democratic nomination for governor, received the Progressive Party’s endorsement despite running as a Democrat. She will … Read more
Democrat-Socialist candidates aren’t new, but viable, advancing Democrat-Socialist of America candidates are, and they keep winning primaries and grabbing nominations for congressional and U.S. Senate races. If you don’t understand the problem, that’s a problem. The DSA agenda is about the destruction of America, free markets, separation of powers, and the Republic. You lose property … Read more
Ironically, in August 1945, George Orwell penned “ANIMAL FARM”, a satire “PAR EXCELLANCE.” Led by Napoleon and Snowball, the pigs take over Mr. Jones’ Farm. They change the rules to suit their greed, declaring “All animals are equal, but some animals are more equal than others”. Charles, how does this political satire apply today in … Read more
The Democratic Socialists of America (DSA) is not a new organization within our political circle. It actually started over 40 years ago and held its first convention in March of 1982. It started with about 6,000 members and remained a small fringe group until 2016, when Bernie Sanders first ran for President. The membership has … Read more
There are only a few possible, feasible explanations for the sudden change in James Carville’s demeanor when someone even whispers DSA. Over the last few months, Carville has been nothing less than apoplectic when anyone suggested that a DSA member was a member of the Democratic Party. Just last week, he was on record saying … Read more
Today on the Morning Update, another DSA darling ascends as the Democratic nominee to a general election, this time in Florida, where we hope she has no chance whatsoever. But? We’re here to help, just in case – because you’ve got douche whistles in your state running for local and federal elections as well, and … Read more
I know I’ve been beating this donkey-skinned drum for a while, but the difference between the DNC and the DSA can be boiled down to this. Two letters, same priorities, just slightly different trajectories, rapidly approaching the furthest left possible alignment. They both claim to hate the rich, love criminals more than law-abiding citizens, “other” … Read more
Today, on the Morning Update, a reporter corners a Democratic Socialists of America (DSA) National Political Committee Member, and it’s not just glorious; it’s the template for you when confronted with anyone who supports them. Watch on the ‘Grok Rumble Channel if the Embedded Video does not load. Ep 239 Links: Authors’ and Speakers’ opinions … Read more
The Democrats’ moderate party dress is ripped and torn to shreds. Always an affectation, their increasingly radicalized base has smeared the lipstick on the Marxist pig and shredded all pretense. The DSA is the Democrat Party; it’s just a matter of time before the next primary election and having enough numbers to rape and ravage … Read more
We have known for years that the pandemic was not the only scourge on Americans. Since 2015, millions of Americans have been afflicted with a serious, incurable disease that affects the ability to think clearly, but also impacts general mental health, usually manifesting in depression, anger, and rage. There is no known cure for this … Read more
The Democrats are being steamrolled by the Socialists, and they are letting them use the big tent for the slaughter. Chuck Schumer and Hakeem Jeffries have been claiming for months that the young radical DSA candidates were a welcome addition to the Party, but the truth is, the leaders of the Party have as much … Read more
I want to preface my comments today by saying I am not in favor of singling out specific groups of people for recognition, such as Black History Month or Indigenous Peoples’ Day. I am not in favor of politicians addressing a targeted group, like Al Sharpton’s National Action Network. I despise the word, but I … Read more
No shortage of opinion about the advance of DSA Candidates who are running boldly in Democratic primaries across the nation. No Abigail Spanberger, they. She pretended to be moderate, then once elected showed her true-blue colors. A tactic and result that ought to be playing wide in every race across the country. You can’t trust … Read more
The Democrats continue to do and say things that you would not expect from one of our major political Parties. I still think of JFK, Bill Clinton (yes, he was a power), Tip O’Neill, and the forces they were in American politics and our history. The so-called leaders of today’s Democratic Party could not carry … Read more
There are times when someone is just looking for attention. They have created a message and persona and, through Social Media, have attracted millions of mindless followers. Sometimes these creatures need to be kept in the box. Sometimes we need to recognize the evil and keep it under wraps. Sometimes the box needs to be … Read more
This week, the famed pollster and certainly no conservative, Nate Silver, founder (but since departed) of FiveThirtyEight and now author of the Silver Bulletin, published an article breaking down the financial and racial demographics of who makes up the Democratic Socialists of America. What he discovered is that the party’s “sweet spot,” to use the term from … Read more
