  • They have power, they just refuse to use it. Filibuster. Refuse to show up and thus break quorum. Move and second a motion to adjourn immediately at the session opening if they do show up. Continue to do it until every Democrat has called to adjourn. Continue to propose amendments and make secondary motions to anything that’s ever been touched by a Republican that would undo everything their motion/bill asks. Refuse to close discussion.

    The Democrats do have power.

    What they lack is a spine or conviction. They’re too worried about their donors.


    1. The modern version of “Carthago delenda est” - everything he says should end in a call to remove the administration as traitors.

    2. Filibuster - shut down the government so that no vote can be taken until they’re ready to do what needs to be done - not just until the question is put before them, but browbeat the entire Senate until either they do what’s needed, or go for a full shutdown.

    3. Stop worrying about what the problems are, and only discuss the only reasonable solution. Netanyahu and his people, Putin and his people, the trade stupidity, whatever it is, they’re just problems outside the scope. Focus on what we can fix here in the USA. Article II, Section 4 removal is the only way we can fix it. Bang that drum every day and keep up the constant messaging.








  • That’s depression, not nihilism. Nihilism is related to existentialism, and is about believing in nothing but what you experience or can prove. Unfortunately it’s very close to some forms of scientism, whereby someone makes “Science” their religious faith. The idea of nihilism is to be faithless and to view the world through the lens of the material.
