He wants to bleed and die for his "rights". Perhaps he'll get the chance, though, somehow, this feels like nothing more than hot air, and of course his staff is claiming that he was speaking metaphorically.

I, on the other hand, was being quite literal.

Ojeda is an idiot. He used to be in WV politics, down in Logan county, playing the "I'm a veteran!!!" card pretty heavy handedly. He was a Major in a Guard artillery engineer unit.

We (the WVARNG) had a program called Ridgerunner which was sort of like a big Robin Sage for SF teams. One particularly hilarious iteration had our guest team in southern WV, and they were doing an HVT snatch utilizing a defunct school building in the middle of a sleepy little town called Chapmanville. LEOs knew what was going on. 911 call center knew what was going on. Town and county officials knew what was going on.

But for whatever reason, no one told the people in the town. So social media lit up when smoke/flash bangs and belt-fed MGs started going off around the school. They quickly got the word out it was an exercise but some people (primarily Ojeda) started going on about how this was just Obama trying to desensitize the population to military in our streets, how lucky we were he and his boys (he had ties to some militia group down in Logan) got the word it was an exercise or they would have started stacking bodies.

Just checked out his wiki page. Was for Trump, then for Bernie. To quote Freddie..."any way the wind blows, doesn't really matter to me."

There are, I think many of those lunatics out there. They have been indoctrinated by media and academia and emboldened by the summer of love in 2020. They are stupid enough to get froggy if the moment is right and completely lacking in wisdom to fathom the consequences of their actions. These are the modern day version of the assholes that gleefully “dispossessed” the Ukrainian Kulaks of their grain, property and lives.

If the 47 administration does not move hard against the financiers of this cancer it will be an epic mistake.

In this clip, VDH provides a clear and concise understanding of these people. Please take the time to watch.

During my life I have owned and operated several businesses.

I recall, in the 70s, looking at the parking lot for my business. Every employee had a vehicle - most under three years old, a few, older. It struck me that my entrepreneurial efforts had provided the jobs that paid for those vehicles, my portion of the SS contribution provided them an income on retirement and my contribution to their 401K helped as well.

I don't rank anywhere near the billionaire status, but imagine the number of employees that the businesses they own have the same thing my few employees had! They do not keep their money in mattresses, rather invested in the economy of the Nation, providing the jobs for literally millions of people. Their businesses pay city, county, state and federal taxes.

I have been criticized for practicing "trickle down" economics by my Left-leaning acquaintances, to which I say "Absolutely"! I work my ass off, take risks and make payroll every two weeks!

Public sector employees simply do not have the incentive (losing your ass) that business owners suffer.

It is easy to say the minimum wage should be $25.00 per hour - unless you have to figure out how much increased revenue is required to pay that salary.

Rant off...

DSA has come out with a new platform:

They have more on the DSA website, but I won't link it here - you can find it. I'd only open it in a private browser.

Democratic Socialists Call for Ending Presidency, Supreme Court in New Platform

The Democratic Socialists of America this week unveiled a new political platform calling for sweeping changes to the structure of the U.S. government, including replacing the presidency and Supreme Court with institutions subordinate to Congress.

The platform, titled "Workers Deserve More!," proposes replacing the presidency and Supreme Court "with an executive and judiciary chosen by and subordinate to Congress," a change that would require constitutional amendments and fundamentally reshape the nation's system of separated powers established more than two centuries ago.

The proposal is among the most far-reaching reforms included in the platform, which also calls for abolishing the Electoral College and eliminating the U.S. Senate.

Speaking during a Tuesday evening webinar introducing the platform, drafter Michaela Brangan addressed criticism of the proposal to eliminate the presidency.

"Whenever people are like, 'Oh my God, they want to get rid of the president,' I was like, 'Well, I don't know what we would call it in the future. We could call it the 'head honcho' or whatever," Brangan said.

Brangan said the organization is "envisioning something more like a prime minister" than a president. She also said "most other developed countries" have prime ministers, though she added that she does not use the term "developed country" in a "willy-nilly" manner.

The platform also proposes abolishing the Electoral College, which has been used to elect presidents since the Constitution was ratified, and eliminating the Senate, one of Congress' two chambers.

During the webinar, political commentator Emma Vigeland endorsed that proposal.

"Abolishing the Senate, letting it go by the way like the way the House of Lords did in the U.K. Look, I can get behind that for sure, baby," Vigeland said.

The DSA said the document is intended to provide a unified governing vision as democratic socialist candidates continue to gain prominence in American politics.

"Obviously, the Democratic Party has a platform, the Republican Party has a platform," Brangan said. "But for socialists and workers' parties, historically, platforms have been extremely important in organizing, projecting the party vision outward with analysis and with demands, and organizing people into the party."

The Democratic Socialists of America is the nation's largest socialist political organization, with tens of thousands of members. Although it is not formally affiliated with the Democratic Party, many of its endorsed candidates run as Democrats in federal, state, and local elections.

New York City Mayor Zohran Mamdani and Rep. Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez, D-N.Y., are among the movement's highest-profile elected officials. A number of DSA-backed candidates also have recently won municipal and state legislative races.

The platform's constitutional proposals face steep legal and political hurdles. Under Article V of the Constitution, amendments must be approved by two-thirds of both the House and Senate before being ratified by legislatures or conventions in three-fourths of the states. The Constitution has been amended only 27 times since its ratification in 1788.

The presidency, Supreme Court, Senate, and Electoral College are all established by the Constitution, meaning each proposal would require one or more constitutional amendments.

Even if Congress approved the measures, supporters would still need the backing of at least 38 states, a threshold that has historically made structural changes to the federal government among the most difficult reforms to enact.

Right.

Let the pawns entertain the masses, but for Pete's sake, get the GDC kings and queens while we can.

Surely moderates on both sides see the danger presented by these socialist turds. I don’t see a pathway for the left to win anything without MASSIVE fraud as long as people get out and vote.

New Poll Shows American Voters Overwhelmingly Reject Communism, Dealing A Blow To DSA

The Democratic Socialists of America are intensifying their consolidation of power within the Democratic Party, winning low-turnout local elections as establishment Democrats struggle to contain the spread of socialism and Marxism within their DEI kingdom.

DSA leaders and politicians have openly embraced anti-American rhetoric centered on dismantling capitalism and calling for revolution, while their unofficial spokesperson, Hasan Piker, has amplified inflammatory calls to "kill capitalists."

The larger question is whether mainstream America is prepared to follow DSA revolutionaries toward a violent revolution from within the nation to sow chaos, as federal investigations grow over the group's alleged links to foreign subversion networks connected to Cuba and China.

Convincing average voters to embrace a far-left agenda, especially one wrapped in revolution and anti-capitalist rhetoric, will be an extraordinarily difficult sell to folks who just want to live life and own property.

Washington, DC-based research and polling firm Echelon Insights has captured a new sentiment snapshot of voters from a poll last week that showed just how unpopular DSA, socialism, and communism are...

The clearest takeaway is that voters strongly prefer market-oriented ideas:

Free-market economy: 53% favorable, 12% unfavorable, a +41 net rating
Capitalism: 49% favorable, 29% unfavorable, +20
MAHA: 39% favorable, 33% unfavorable, +6
Social democracy: 36% favorable, 31% unfavorable, +5

So many of the younger generations, under maybe age 40, have no perspective of how things "used to be" when socialism was reviled and when there was much less government meddling. They buy into the seemingly mild changes to fix broken systems such as health care and paying for health care. They don't know that it is broken because of government involvement.

They don't have enough life experience to know that the slippery slope is real, and they trust the good intentions of those promoting socialism.

Many moderates are going to either vote FOR socialism or AGAINST evil conservative capitalists.

Massive fraud by the Dems is necessary to win in some places for sure. Especially when it comes to the White House and getting a majority in Congress.

Democrats and RINO's, not necessarily in that order.

^^^ WTF??? That's insane.

Damn, he’s even wearing a Commy uniform looking thing…

Doesn't seem to be all that bright.

I was thinking that his tunic is only missing some black and silver on the neck with a red armband and his old trusty eagle and swastika. I believe those are his true colors.

Communist or nazi, this turd needs to be flushed down the pipe to hang out with the other turds.

It is very difficult to believe that anyone can listen to this and actually buy into it.

Communism or Nazism, doesn’t matter. They are both incompatible with happiness and freedom. They should be relegated to history to never be allowed to exist again on the face of the Earth.

I think there are enough of the right sorts of people to take a special interest in piker if it comes down to bolshi’s & kulaks 2.0…

Yeah, he won't be around for the revolution. He's made himself far too conspicuous. He'll go missing at the first sign of trouble.

And it won't be just business; it'll also be personal, and it won't be quick for him.
