@burnoutqueen @gwynnion The Democrats would rather lose to Trump than win with Bernie. Is it a mistake to assume that winning elections is their primary goal. Their primary goal is to defend the oligarchy from leftist populism. They accomplish this by absorbing leftish voters (a vote for Stein is a vote for Trump) while delivering nothing except empty symbolism. The U.S. will never have universal healthcare, will never stop waging war, etc. unless and until the Democratic Party is destroyed.

@AnarchoNinaWrites I don't know, specifically, who he is firing but, hopefully, he is addressing the revolving door between our health agencies and the pharma companies.

@WAHa_06x36 @gwm - the difference between Trump and Harris w/regards to the mass murder in Palestine is that Trump will say "I'm glad. I hate Palestinians". Meanwhile Harris will wring her hands and describe how terrible she feels about the whole thing, yadda, yadda, ...

Those differences will not matter to the dead.

@WAHa_06x36 @gwm - how many dead children does it take to change Harris' mind on the ongoing mass murder in Palestine? If she were capable of having her mind changed, she would have changed it by now.

@WAHa_06x36 @gwm - if you want the people in Gaza to stop dying, why would you vote for someone who has repeatedly indicated, *through* *her* *actions*, that she has absolutely no intention of doing a single thing to make that happen?

@WAHa_06x36 @gwm - I'm not naive. My problem is that I don't consider the people who live in the U.S. to be more worthy of consideration than everyone else.

@WAHa_06x36 @gwm - I don't intend to vote for Trump. If the Democrats wanted my vote they should have nominated someone who doesn't support genocide.

@WAHa_06x36 @gwm - I'm sure Biden and Harris would have done something to stop the slaughter in Gaza if only they could have figured out who was supplying Israel money and weapons. Its a mystery.
