Is Ken Martin still alive?
In fact, is *anyone* at the DNC alive?
Every *fucking* day, tRump and Republicans feed the DNC boatloads of Republican lies, crimes, corruption, and other injustices to *scream* about, for FUCKING FREE, at a press conference.

And the DNC returns abject silence.

SILENCE.

Hitlergate wasn't "kids"—it was 20- and 30-something GOP flacks.

No one in the GOP Hitler chat was a "kid"

We checked. Sorry, JD Vance.

That awkward moment when Mike Johnson warns that the Mike Johnson shutdown, which allows Mike Johnson to prevent members from derailing GOP health care cuts and delay a new Democrat vote to release the Epstein files and bury tRump, Mike Johnson, and the GOP, may be the longest shutdown in history.

Politico released "I Love Hitler" leaked private messages from POS "Young Republicans".

I love Politico.

Politico just showed the rest of the tRump-sucking American media how to find their *conscience*.

Hoping that Ken Martin and the DNC will eventually grasp the importance of messaging versus silence, I'll post this simple example every day until they have their "aha" moment and get to work.

Let’s stop pretending. The issue before the Supreme Court right now is easy to understand: There are still many people on the far right who don’t see Black Americans as equals...they see them through the same filthy slur they whisper when the cameras are off. That's right...that word.

Yeah the reason there’s no scar on his ear is because it was staged. The whole thing was staged. It was very, very obviously staged.

A better question would be is why nobody seems interested in investigating that. I mean, I know the answer but still.
