What About The –

“Now Democrats are trying to translate visceral outrage into political strategy, even though there’s little consensus on how to press forward on issues where the party has recently struggled to earn voters’ trust.”
– Matt Brown reporting at AP, 01.21.2026

“Scrambling to figure out…” says the AP headline, and that pretty much sums up what the Democratic Party is all about. Once again, as in Palestine – in a situation where the moral and ethical choices are clear to anyone, Democrats are “scrambling” to figure out what the hell they stand for – and if the DNC has to “scramble” to figure out what the proper choices are here, then it’s obvious at this point that the Democratic Party is a garbage institution which stands for absolutely jack. Whenever you hear these crawlers talking about translating outrage into “strategy”, or “harnessing” popular energy, it’s all about sucking the blood of the People’s popular movements, co-opting and shipping them off to the Movement Graveyard.

Anyone who actually follows my work here regularly will know about my personal “tradition” of the “Random 15” – that is, 15-30 seconds of whatever is being vomited out over MSNOW when I come upstairs with our first cups of the morning… and this week on “Morning Joe”, my Random 15 been one dime-a-dozen DNC “strategiest” after another, one Contributing Guest Analyst after another, clutching pearls and wailing “Oh, won’t somebody think of the MIDTERMS?” in the wake of the uprising breaking out in the face of fascist thuggery in Minnesota.

That’s really pretty much what it’s all about with these clods – not liberty, justice, prosperity, fascism vanquished, any of that cool shit – nahh, just winning another pointless-ass midterm election, hustling the People into giving their symbolic consent to rule by charlatans, defusing the power of the People and diverting it into empty useless rituals like “democracy”. The Democrats are all about defanging the People, beating back a much-needed revolution – a much-needed civil war, even – because as history teaches us, at the end of the day, Liberals are really OK with fascism.

Another "No Kings" Weekend

Inspired by a Bluesky thread about all the DNC astroturf front outfits hogging all the public protest space, and how they plan on exploiting the situation in Minnesota. I’ve seen where the Fifty Fifty One dipshits and their pals are already making some moves.

“SCRising has a strong commitment to nonviolent action. We expect all participants to seek to de-escalate any potential confrontation with those who disagree with our values…”

– even if Those Who Disagree are armed, lawless fascist thugs hell-bent on oppressing, mass-murdering, disappearing and imprisoning us all, and coming after your own personal posh Liberal ass, right out there in the street?

“Good Trouble”? Oh, get the hell outta my face. Would it be safe at this point to discount any opinions from anyone throwing around the phrase “good trouble”? We’re long past that; we need some people with the cojones to start some bad trouble.

And I gotta love their almost pathological clinging to Nonviolence™ dogma even as the State and Capital literally beat them down in the streets. It makes me puke. Yeah – it’ll be “peaceful” until the pigs start clobbering their stupid Liberal asses with tear gas, beanbags and flash-bangers, and anyone who fights back will be labeled an “agitator” and ratted out.

Resistance Solidarity

Washington – the gangster-in-chief posing as global policeman – refuses to accept any limitations on its actions. If legal authorities, whether domestic or international, try to stand in its way, they are either punished or pushed aside.

In this topsy-turvy world, Trump’s naked exercise of colonial violence is feted as peace-making. As he was massing troops off Venezuela’s coast last month, FIFA, the international football federation, awarded him its inaugural peace prize – an honour created specifically to stroke his ego…
