#KloboCop. She needs to resign, go back home, and stay out of public life forever. Not qualified to be in local animal control or garbage collection.

But Anger (like all are emotions) shud be honored and acknowledged. It all depends on how we “manage” our emotions! Anger doesn’t mean irrationality or extremism. We need to be angry! A la batalla!!

Thanks for the comment. However, I completely disagree. Anger never increases the efficacy of my own actions. Worse, anger severely diminishes my ability to reason and think clearly. To each their own.

One of the shining pillars of human creation is the snappy comeback. It proves that anger doesn't exist in a vacuum, even in that "all-consuming" darkness we're all subject to. Your knowledge and intelligence and abilities are all around it. You harness, refine and then act - history is filled with people doing that in a split-second. Anger is the first draft.

Any "conservative," political or social or both, who votes for Klobuchar is an idiot at best, a lover of censorship at worst.

If she's re-elected Minnesota deserves everything that happens to it as a result, and its citizens who vote for her or abstain from voting against her are entirely responsible along with her for the local, national, and international consequences,

Sanders is a feckless mercenary who sold his soul to the party. Enlisting his image or mealymouthed public statements as a propaganda weapon is like using Hubert Humphrey, or worse.

Expand full comment
DarkSkyBest's avatar

There is reporting recently that Sanders has a Foundation (of course) that is paying his step-son like $70,000 this last quarter. Same reporting said the Foundation, founded to protect "democracy (of course)," paid $200,000 to it last year. Run by his wife and step-son. Maybe out of campaign funds. Mission statement written by a Socialist.

Please abandon Bernie worship. If you want to look at someone to admire after they lose a big election, look to Plains, Georgia. He is the epitome of what someone with values and beliefs does with their time. I don't hold all the same beliefs, and I strongly disagree with alot of his latest pronouncements, but his is the GOAT of post-Presidencies. Tell me I'm wrong.

The night of the Iowa primary I was watching some live broadcast from somewhere (I think on C-Span) and it looked like Bernie votes at that particular caucus site turned into a Hilary win. Looked fishy, but maybe that is how the caucus system works.

Anyway, it appears that the way you "progress" in the Dem Party these days is to swallow all of your principles (IF you ever had any) and make money. Bernie is wealthy and guaranteed to die in office, which office his family will inherit, of course. Will it be Sen. Wife or Sen. Step-son? Primary Kamala got no votes, called Joe a racist, and she is a heartbeat away from being the Pres of the US of A. Doesn't anybody see anything wrong with this picture?

Klobuchar sounds like it could be a verb.

Klobuchar (v) - to harass, threaten or clobber a powerful media entity into censoring speech that Amy Klobuchar does not like.

Usage:

"Oxford, Harvard and Stanford doctors had their posts censored yet again as a result of social media companies being Klobuchared by government entities."

"The write on substack was Klobuchared into silence when her revenue stream dried up."
