I am all in with Winkler. So is Robert Reich. It seems we have three weapons to use, our vote, our voice, and our money. But we only vote every two years. We have our voice and our money everyday. Capitalism and the elite only understand money. We need to use our money in this war. We still have lots of it. Do the research about who is supporting Trump, or is anti DEI, and LGTBQ+. I cancelled my LA Times subscription and my Amazon Prime. No longer buying my books on Amazon, or for online purchases. I shop at Ace Hardware much more than Home Depot. Shop local, even if it costs a bit more. Stuff like that. Push back against the skimmers and scammers. Push back against business abuses. Do not let them bully us.
It is Ben Wikler. I want more info about him, is he progressive is a fighter. I have a politically active friend in Wisconsin, where he is chair of Democratic Party of Wisconsin.
The problem is that Biden, Harris, and particularly the DNC are NOT saving Democracy NOW when they have power by forcing convincing allowing Harris to call for forensic audit of the election (the easy way to win), Biden staying in power (then handing to Harris for 4 years) not handing the Democracy to Russian-backed criminals who state they will destroy it. Why so much energy on giving up Democracy to criminals then planning how to recapture it, rather than JUST DO NOT LET IT HAPPEN. STOP THE TRANSITION!
Iagree, at least have Biden issue blanket pardons to all of Trump's enemies, then resign. Harris will immediately become 47th President, then she could use the powers given her by SCOTUS, since Biden is too weak willed to do something audacious
Yes, that too. If Biden announces that he will stay in power then hands to President Harris, the she doesn't have to deal with making that move which some democrats think is wrong. They want the peaceful transition to Trump. But how about a peaceful transition to Harris (possibly by actual vote counting correctly). Someone needs to press on Biden for this OR help Harris find a way to MAKE her President.
We are in a war, this is a way out. Yes, there may be violence or civil war, but with Trumps criminal team out of the way in prison, it won't last long. Harris can win over the nation, but she HAS to aggressively save us from the upcoming Holocaust. We may NOT recover from it, nor even have any DNC.
Phucking establishment Democrats, Friends like that who needs enemies. Peaceful transition,bull shit, idiots are self deluded, Project 2025 has it all laid out,
but these clowns think that if they play along, he will forgive them and they will survive. Biden should resign and Harris pardons Biden
IIRC, FDR couldn't initiate military action and declare war and thus our "neutrality" (I know how lend lease circumvented that) but it took the attack on Pearl Harbor, and yet we couldn't declare war on Germany, but Hitler declared war on us. Until 9/11 only congress could authorize military action, but in response it delegated such powers to the Presidency (Bush) that is why we had the WOT. Am I wrong here?

We are in a war, one that was imposed on us. Biden could declare war too as a way out of this mess. Yes, there may be violence or civil war, but with Trump’s criminal team out of the way in prison, it won't last long.
After what the public is starting to see will happen, President Harris can win over the nation, but she HAS to aggressively do what she must to save us from the upcoming Holocaust.
We may NOT recover from it, nor even have any real no matter who is the chair.
You guys are silly dreamers. Have you not been watching what has happened the last 8 or so years? We lost. The evil demons won. Your only appropriate action at this point is to protect yourself and your loved ones.
I don't know why you responded to me as you did, because I agree with you;. I am afraid that I will have to leave this country, and am making plans. My wife and I have our passports.
Right. Our vote has been neutered by suppression efforts, the electoral college, and an electorate that prioritizes celebrity over competency and decency. Our voice is completely dampened by a culture that zeroes in on misinformation and ignores the truth. And our money is peanuts compared to the multiple billions available to the oligarchs.
The rest of your message is more current. Maybe we can develop a counter-culture. Otherwise, I contend that what we are experiencing is the death throes of the American experiment in democracy. Throughout history empires, nations, regions, governments, and even cultures experience periods of growth and domination. followed by periods of stagnation, failure, and destruction. I believe that America is in the latter stage.
I don't know what is coming, but I have little hope. I am settling into a mode of taking care of me, and mine. And keeping my head down. And, as a dual American/Canadian citizen, I am getting ready to leave.

One group of mostly right wing scholars argues that the Declare War Clause assigns to Congress the primary power to initiate military action. https://crsreports.congress.gov/product/pdf/LSB/LSB11232#:~:text=One%20group%20of%20scholars%20argues,to%20combat%20without%20congressional%20authorization.
