I've said it time after time. Words don't pay the bills. Words do not feed the families.
We warned you that this is not a joke.
Okay, do you believe the Democratic Party is about to ride the Blue Wave?
Do you believe that Democrats are motivated after seeing the results of President Donald J. Trump's return to power?
Will these No Kings protests be a turning point in American politics?
Are you going to vote "Blue No Matter Who?"
Well before I go into my rant, I want to say that if any Democratic operative reads this, I want to say thank you for getting an opportunity to read this. Maybe I can inspire a change in how the party runs things.
I give them a 47% chance winning the House and a 43% of winning the Senate.
So my honest opinion about the Democratic Party.
They are garbage. Trash. A total colossal cluster fuck.
And they can thank former president Joe Biden, Sen. Chuck Schumer (D-NY), Rep. Nancy Pelosi (D-CA) and the Democratic National Committee. A party trying to stay popular when their policies are never delivered. A party that continues to gaslight us about the opposition being in the pockets of the elite while doing the same. The party that calls out the opposition for being racial extremists but end up being racial extremists too.
We got a lot a work to do.
The Republican Party is becoming a bunch of big government nannies who want to push culture wars into federal laws. This overreach will generate backlash due to the hypocrisy they've carried as small government and freedom loving patriots.
First things first, the Democrats must focus on issues that matter to all Americans. The economy for one thing is a big issue. We are witnessing the potential for a catastrophic crash thanks to Trump's tariffs, his fly off the handle policies and this government shutdown.
If the Democrats are motivated to talk about how the policies of the past are not working, they better start talking now.
Capitalism isn't prospering for the middle class or the lower class. This trickle down economics is not benefiting the working class. The need to be honest about capitalism being a disaster has to be addressed.
The Democratic Party is still supportive of capitalism which is rooted in white supremacy, economic inequality and greed.
The policies the Republican Party are presenting are status quo. They are becoming the big government nannies they tagged the Democratic Party for years as.
Socialism, once a toxic word and a tag on almost every Democratic politician should no longer be a slur. It is time for Americans to understand that the oligarchy that led to wealth inequality is a product of capitalism. We need to equate capitalism to the rise in food prices, health costs, insurance premiums increasing and private equity firms destroying companies.
Israel, Israel, Israel..... When the party support for Israel is a mere 8%, why is the Democratic Party still trying to encourage their voters to support this country?
They're on their knees giving in to Israel and its minions.
As Israel continues to commit a genocide under the guise of a ceasefire, some Democrats and the influncers are calling out the progressive base for moving on from Gaza.
I haven't moved on from Israel. I am laser focused on ensuring Israel will fall. I am seeing the endless attacks on Zohran Mamdani, Graham Platner, Cori Bush, Katie Porter and even former vice president Kamala Harris.

I get it Harris should face criticism for ignoring the concerns.
I voted for Harris for president. I have told family members that Israel will be a major factor. Trump's near assassination was a big factor. His mugshot too. He tapped into the grievances of the American people.
Democrats wasted too much time scaring voters. I get it. Trump is an essential threat to the country. I posted on this blog numerous times about it. But I also said that Biden's support for Israel and not focusing on the economy could hurt him come 2024.
White men cannot get the U.S. back on the right track. We seen how Trump and Biden led us into endless chaos within their terms. Trump has become the first 21st Century president to never achieve 50% in positive successes. Yet, we reelected him for a second term despite the dangers he posed in his first chaotic term.
The supporters of former vice president Kamala Harris are playing on this "We tried to warn you" nonsense. How can you morally stand on principles of being a progressive and back Israel?
First and foremost, Americans have a right to vote for whomever they chose.
Second, Harris failed to win over voters. She stuck with former president Joe Biden on the economy, Israel, Ukraine, immigration and inflation. The former president failed to listen to voters and his base.
The former president gave unilateral support and cover. We knew Trump would be worse. We demanded that Biden put pressure on Benjamin Netanyahu and Israel to stop killing and invading other countries.
The social media influencers who backed Harris ignored the progressive base and the calls for a ceasefire. They ignored the concerns about banning TikTok and calling everyone who opposes Israel a terrorist. They literally were on the "Vote Blue No Matter Who" mantra.
That shows the "tone deafness" within the party.
It is not Rep. Rashida Tlaib's (D-MI) fault for Biden and Harris' missteps. She warned them that Arab Americans did not like being ignored.
30% of Biden's 2020 base were disappointed with his stances on Israel. His iron clad support for that apartheid ethnostate harmed his reelection bid and hurt Harris when she took over after he dropped out. Somehow his stupid Catholic faith led him down this road to destruction. Not to mention the nearly $234 million in AIPAC funding.
Democratic establishment influncers are practically on these platforms saying that they ain't helping the former Biden/Harris voters who voted for as Trump.
That's perfectly fine.
It makes progressives more independent and it declines support for Democratic candidates.
MAGAland politicians are going crazy. They belive the No Kings protesters are not genuine. The protests are growing and it appears to be more inclined to white grievances about Trump not delivering on lowering the costs of living.

If progressives need to divorce the Democrats, the time is now. I am not voting for the status quo.
I am going to vote for a candidate that focuses on issues that impact the growth of this flawed nation. Not distractions or words. Words do not pay the rent. They do not feed the families. They do not pay my bills. Words do not control the movement of policies.
No more slogans.
It's noise.
Folks, the Democrats must end the rules of engagement. They need to kick out the filth.
End their support of Israel, stop pandering to win votes, embrace embarrassments and stop trying to be friends with MAGAland.
Blue MAGA is a threat too. Because they are too cozy with religion, apartheid, income inequality and racism.
Rep. Adriano Espaillat (D-NY) has lost his primary to a challenger backed by New York Mayor Zohran Mamdani, NBC News projects, in a major victory for the progressive wing of the party.

| Afro-Latina, Muslim and unapologetic. Congratulations Darializa Chevalier. |
Community organizer and activist Darializa Avila Chevalier, a 32-year-old member of the Democratic Socialists of America, defeated Espaillat, 71, after casting him as an insufficient fighter for the working-class residents of the upper Manhattan district and out of step with Democratic primary voters on Israel policy.
“Where is our congressman when [Immigration and Customs Enforcement] is kidnapping his constituents? Why should we let Adriano Espaillat vote to spend billions on bombs overseas when we’re struggling to afford rent and groceries right here in New York City?” Avila Chevalier, who works at a public defender’s office, said in a video launching her campaign.
“We live in the richest country in the history of the world. It’s never been that our government lacks the resources to help us. It’s just that the establishment lacks the courage,” Avila Chevalier continued.
She had support on the airwaves from Justice Democrats, which backs progressives taking on Democratic incumbents. But she also faced an onslaught of attacks from groups backing Espaillat, including allies of the Hispanic Caucus, which Espaillat chairs. The attacks highlighted some highlighting her past social media posts, where she profanely criticized Democratic leaders, including calling former President Joe Biden a “rapist” and writing “F--- Kamala Harris.”
The posts, according to reports from the New York Post and CNN, also included comments that “Israel doesn’t exist,” that “a world without prisons or police” is needed, and that “all deportation is wrong.”
Avila Chevalier told NBC News earlier this month that now that she’s older she’s “understanding a little more how a lot of these systems function.”
“My values have always been my values,” she said. “But my understanding of how to approach the systems has grown.”
She also responded with a TV ad, saying, “The same billionaires that attacked Zohran Mamdani are now spending millions against me. They know that unlike Adriano Espaillat, I can’t be bought and I won’t back down to Trump.”
Avila Chevalier’s campaign in the 13th District had mostly flown under the radar both nationally and in New York City until Mamdani endorsed her last month, despite initially promising to back Espaillat. He stood by her following the revelation of those posts.
The congressman had endorsed former Gov. Andrew Cuomo in last year’s mayoral primary, but backed Mamdani after he won the nomination. Mamdani then privately promised to support Espaillat, a pledge first reported by The New York Times and Politico, and confirmed by one person familiar with the conversation, before he eventually reneged and backed his challenger. Mamdani’s campaign did not comment on any agreement.
Mamdani cast Avila Chevalier as the future of the Democratic Party, saying as he announced his endorsement on MS NOW that she will be “on the front lines” of showing that Democrats “have to be fighting for a vision that reckons with the fact that working people were not left behind just four years ago or 16 years ago. They were left behind a long time before that.”
“And it will take a new generation of leadership to ensure that the heartbeat of this party is once again the struggles of the working class,” Mamdani said.
Avila Chevalier is also a vocal critic of Israel, calling the country’s war against Hamas in Gaza a genocide. A Columbia University alumna, she participated in the pro-Palestinian protests at the university and was present during last year’s standoff with police at Hamilton Hall, which she described as “quite horrific.” She also attended a controversial pro-Palestinian rally the day after Hamas’ 2023 attacks in Israel — an event that Brad Lander, the former city comptroller also sporting Mamdani’s endorsement in his congressional bid, condemned.
Avila Chevalier has voiced support for legislation blocking certain arms sales to Israel, also known as the “Block the Bombs” bill. She has also called for abolishing ICE, Medicare for All and national tenant protections.
Espaillat, meanwhile, leaned into his experience pushing for affordable housing and immigrant rights. He was the first former undocumented immigrant, and the first Dominican American, elected to the House.
“I’m running on my record, a record of accomplishment, a record that has listened to people and that has brought back results to the community I represent,” he said during a Spectrum News NY1 debate.
Espaillat had support from House Minority Leader Hakeem Jeffries, Gov. Kathy Hochul, state Attorney General Letitia James, City Council Speaker Julie Menin, the Congressional Black Caucus and the state AFL-CIO.
The race had turned negative in its final days, with Avila Chevalier, an Afro-Latina who is Muslim, accusing Espaillat and his supporters of racist attacks and “lies about my identity, my faith and my family.”
Avila Chevalier said in a video posted on social media that the congressman’s supporters have been “standing at poll sites in our district shouting lines and slinging racial slurs.” She said, “I have been hit with attacks that use Haitian as a slur” and that people have reached out to her family demanding to see her birth certificate.
Espaillat told The City Reporter, “I condemn — the campaign has been very aggressive. I ask for people to tone it down.”
