lol…
this ended up projecting the exact opposite image to the world they were hoping for…instead of strength, we projected weakness; instead of solidarity, we exposed division; instead of organization, we showed chaos and disorder; instead of shared interest and mission, there was apathy in abundance; and on and on, ad infinitum.
we just exposed to the entire world…if they didn’t already know…the utter incompetence of our leadership and we used what is considered to be strongest military force known to mankind as the vehicle to convey that message.
Trump and his goons truly believe that fear of us and concern for consequences are what motivates other nations to deal with us…they are the very core of their ontology. in real life at that level that is rarely the case. but if they were a factor, they are no longer.
Trump flipped over a 3 of clubs after he acted like he was holding an ace of spades. and he didn’t even need to play that card…he did it on his own
we now may as well lay back, relax and enjoy the inevitable sodomy that is sure to come our way because there’s not a goddamn thing we can do about it.
This parade - as it was handled by the military - did way more good than harm.

I have a slightly different view here - the 250th was in the works for the Army, not a parade mind you but something. Trump wanted a parade but he wanted the North Korean, Soviet style parade, instead he got a 250th anniversary parade of US Army history - NOT a show of power parade. My dad was in the military, we would sometimes go to events where the kids could climb all over old decommissioned tanks etc and that’s actually what this looked like to me. I kinda think the military pulled a fast one on him and gave him his parade but didn’t give him what he really wanted which is that idiotic show of force parade.

I’d be better off with that but “we” made fried chimichangas for a Saturday night. Rotisserie chicken, green onion, salsa verde, Monterey Jack, refried beans and topped with homemade cilantro jalapeño ranch dressing and homemade guac and pico.
HEB fresh made burrito tortillas are a godsend.

I don't wanna hear one more fucking word about the "silent majority" or "50% of Americans blah blah blah" from any one of you mother fuckers.
Are you talking about the small crowds? Or are you talking about the “lack” of protesters …?

Stolpman is now our longest standing club. We’ve swapped several over the years but that one is a fixture, and it’s awesome to see them progressively featuring Ruben’s wines.
Our wine person we go too when we load up recommended it, fantastic wine. Dollar sale from last August probably picked it up for 30% off.

One of my favorite things to do is eat good but regular food with an exquisite bottle of wine…. Here’s an example. BLT and a Santa Barbara Syrah that just blew my socks off. Now there’s nothing spectacular about the sandwich, I mean it’s pecan smoked bacon so that’s pretty spectacular, but the whole concept is actually rather poor (I even grew up on BLTs) but adding - how should I say it - an upper echelon wine that by most standards is wasted on such a pedestrian meal is hardly a waste. The BLT doesn’t drag the wine down, the wine elevates the common approachable meal and turns the dinner into something to remember. It might be my absolute favorite way to enjoy our best wines from our collection. We do it with our best Bordeaux wines too often matching them with simple homemade pizzas.

I’d hardly call myself a GC lover but he struck a chord in the way Bernie and AOC have. Most other Dems suck donkey ass, wait elephant ass, and are corporatists through and through. Give us any politician that truly runs on a people first platform and I’m in.

A democrat who fails to protect the most marginalized constituent by treating them as expendable (trans people, climate activists) or worthy of punishment for perceived disloyalty (Latinos, Gen Z, Arabs) is a democrat who sends an uninspiring message to everyone else in their base.
When a democrat does something strong, applaud them. They need all the help they can get because otherwise their political instincts and the consultants they've been following have consistently led them astray, telling them it's "the groups" who have been costing them votes.
to be clear what I heard from GC was not treat trans people as expendable but focus on working class issues (which will also help most trans people) and secondarily don't be mean to the marginalized and advance their causes as best you can within a broader tent knowing a working class voter might disagree with a 3 PhD professor of gender studies. Dems need both of those votes though. GC actually said if you appeal enough to the working class they will forgive some of the culture stuff they might disagree with because the platform is still so much better for them. he's right.

I didn't realize you cared about me that much. but nah, rather be dead than eat whatever fucking chemical created facsimile of a steak the steak finger basket contains. I think the bread is made out of some sort of "artificial bread flavoring" but is really just styrofoam.

To be fair, let's not exaggerate the political brilliance of Casar winning in a district that's 53.8% hispanic. I know you like to lay the blame for enforcing the homeless camping ban at the feet of law enforcement, but it's undoubtedly true that he was way out in front of a permissiveness that was loudly rebuked by voters.
what I've heard him say the dems need to do is 100% on the mark though. push the extreme culture stuff to the side (don't be mean to people) but focus on working class issues. raise the SS threshold (remove it actually), increase access to Medicare (by lowering the age to 55), he had some child care stuff as well, and basically run full tilt as the working class party. he has the AOC/Bernie oligarch/billionaire target speech down at least when I heard him talk. that's EXACTLY what the Dems neeed, not decorum demanding corporatists.

He has very strong rhetorical skills which is why it was so fucking insane of the Harris campaign to put a muzzle on him.
if she wasn't going to use him she shoulda picked Shapiro.

Well OK. I mean, that seems more like “the idea of Greg Casar” than the actual Greg Casar. But I do like him, and more importantly, he wins.
well he wins and the idea of him is what I think the party needs, so then why the fuck are they wanting to primary him? competitive idiots the dems are.

Related to the Hogg thing: right now a small group of traditional Austin Democrats are very quietly feeling around for a “moderate” to primary Greg Casar. Somehow my name came up as a possible supporter or even challenger.
What I told them was that even though Greg Casar‘s ideology is not the model for what Democrats need nationally, purging well liked incumbents who represent their district well in a misguided attempt to enforce some kind of hypothetical majoritarian ideological baseline is exactly what we don’t need to do.If someone thinks they can do the job better than Casar, they should run. But I’m not going to participate as a donor or opponent in an attempt to take him down because he wins, and winning is job #1.
Casar is exactly the type of candidate the democrats need to rally behind. Oligarchs wearing a religious cloak will beat the decorum demanding corporatists coming and going and all day long on Sunday. The dems need to be a true working man’s party and the corporatists need to realize significant reforms are required or the entire house will collapse either under fascism or financial collapse (or both). You just can’t win trying to take it all.
