One more thing…
Make an extra set of keys before you move in.
Sanders is almost 90. You cant count on him to survive his term, much less create a new Party.
No 3rd party has won the Presidency in modern times.
If you want to see change, look at what’s actually worked in the past.
Back in the day, a guy named Jerry Falwell made himself a power in the GOP by a simple trick.
Both Parties, Dems and GOP have local clubs that make the small scale choices that keep things moving. They pick the county clerks and sheriffs. If the local GOP club had had twenty people at the meeting that chose the country clerk, Falwell’s folks would show up with fifty.
After a while, those county clerks were becoming Congresspeople.

Liquor stores have the best boxes and the clerks hate having to break them down. Go to the local liquor store and ask them for boxes. You’ll get all you need.
Another good trick. Instead of packing delicates like plates with paper, use clean clothes. T-shirts will keep things from breaking and you cut down on the number of boxes.
The Left keeps not voting in hopes the Dems will come to them.
It’s not going to work next time either.
I’m sure that the same people who couldn’t deliver Bernie Sanders an overwhelming win in 2020 can suddenly become savvy pols who can just put together a national third party.
If you want action, do what AOC and the others in her squad did. Work inside the Dem party.
Take a lesson from the right. Back in the 1970s Jerry Falwell decided to take control of the GOP. He did it from the ground up. If the local GOP club had had twenty people show up to the last meeting to pick the next county clerk, Falwell’s people would show up with fifty people. Soon those county clerks and sheriffs were becoming Congresspeople and Senators.
Politics is a game and the left sucks at playing it.
The stupidest thing is that he could have quietly blackmailed the Saudis out of $50 billion on Inauguration Day 2017.
Sounds like the start of a Tony Hillerman [author] Joe Leaphorn mystery. Someone finds a body that looks like it’s a Native American ritual burial, but it’s not…
[see TV show ‘Dark Winds’]
There’s an urban legend in New York City.
One day, a patrol car in the Bronx finds a headless body laying in the street. The victim’s hands, feet, and skin was removed. There’s a massive response to find the deranged killer. Everything gets called off in a few hours, after the coroner realizes that it’s the body of a gorilla.
There was a hot dog factory in the area.
When you see those Veterans’ Day parades and a tiny number of WW2 and Korea vets marching…
There really is no such thing as ‘The USA.’
I live in New York City and what’s cool here will get you arrested in other places.
Some towns are fine with you having a rifle on open display. Some towns are fine with you smoking pot on the street.
ass the /s, it’s 2024.
I remember a kids’ book written around 1965. The 12 year old hero travels from his home in Harlem to Penn Station by subway, buys a train ticket to Washington, and goes to the Lincoln Memorial unaccompanied.
The good old days, right?
By this logic, the movie ‘Stand By Me’ is kiddie porn.
I think you mean crabs…
I stand corrected.
Mostly.
Think the world would be all sunshine and friendship if the Saudi princes had the US arsenal? Putin? The people at the top didn’t get there because they played nice and shared their toys.
Be careful what you wish for.
Neither. Jubilee is Marvel.
Rudy was a bully when he was NYC Mayor. He happily jailed fare beaters and squeegee men to ‘protect’ the citizens.
I only wish he’d been forced to hand over the assets personally.
