Always be a truth teller. We need that more than ever. I agree with you 100 percent. The GOP was always going to pass it.

STAY AUTHENTIC, to yourself and to others. It’s ALWAYS better to be truthful because (some) people can smell bullshit a mile away. Rip the band-aid and be honest. I live in reality and I don’t want to hear a shitty vacuum cleaner sales-pitch, I want the truth, even if it hurts to hear it.

David,

Thank you for never being afraid to tell Democrats and the American people the “Cold, Hard Truth.”

And for your willingness to be a “leader of the pack.”

We have to be careful in an echo chamber. Makes us feel like we’re making progress when we’re not. Nothing beats truth.

What’s next is to shut down the interstates and the airports and the train tracks and jam up the gears of commerce, actually make it hurt for once, send a real fucking message. Peacefully protesting is all well and good, but this is war now. Time to take it to the extreme and shut it all down, refuse to pay your taxes, stop giving them your money. Organize your labour, go on strike…..take your power back.

It’s just a feeling, but I knew you were right. The truth isn’t pretty, but necessary. Please don’t worry about the naysayers. I for one need the honesty. Without it, we will never figure out how to really see the truth before us. Please keep doing what you’re doing. Perhaps some day this whole nightmare will end. Until then, we need facts regardless of our feelings.

Being a realist is not being a defeatist. I get the same reaction from my conclusion that there will not be fair elections in 2026/28, as long as Trump remains in power.

I have two answers. The first is STRIKE.

if that is not successful you'd better buckle up, because civil war will follow.

To tell the truth takes a special person, when the Whole Administration are liars. Stand Strong. If you lose some it was never meant to be. They are not being honest within themselves. I've answered questions today on Newsbreaks and it amazing how so many people in SSA are going to a big tax break, then when it's explained and links are provided they become angry at me. The Truth will set us free.

Keep calling it the way you see it. Sugarcoating what is going on only creates false hope and that leads people to let up on the advocacy gas. We need the cold, hard reality to fire up the resistance.

I’m with you, brother!

The truth is best even when unpalatable. You can’t win the war if you go in blind. This is going to be bad no matter how you slice it.

If you’re not honest with us, you’d be just another CNN, MSNBC or FOX talking head. Trump’s next battle? ELECTION REFORM - get ready.
