It's time for the Democrats to STOP BEING INSTITUTIONALISTS, take off the gloves and start playing hardball. Get in there and kick these fuckers right between the legs. When Pelosi chose Gerry Connoly, a 74 year old recovering from esophageal cancer instead of AOC for Ways and Means that really pissed me off. I don't give a shit if 'it isn't her turn.' You know what, if we keep taking turns and putting up senior people like we have, we will keep losing elections and America will keep getting screwed.

If we don't start letting these young people like AOC, Crockett and the rest come to the forefront, we will keep losing elections because this demoralizes the base. That is, if we ever are allowed to have any more elections. So guess what? I will donate to AOC and Crockett and other progressives. But people like that guy in PA and both Senators in AZ who are going for that Laken Riley act that will illegally throw immigrants in jail without anything like due process. What the fuck is that??? I'm not giving them a dime for that shit.

They can forget ever getting any money from me ever again.


The BOLD highlights are mine. Thanks again! PatrickforB
