Schumer and Jeffries look even more spineless

Hochul, belatedly, does the right thing and endorses Mamdani. Makes Schumer and Jeffries look even more ‘spineless’, to quote Sen. Van Hollen.

Teach your children well

We are at a point where politicians can sexually assault women and keep their jobs but teachers will get fired for teaching history.

Pirro retch

 

Twenty-five more than he should have had

Twenty-six.

That's how many women have filed credible sexual assault charges against Donald Trump.

Want to guess how many times Jeanine Pirro, Fox News opinion host, has called out Donald Trump for it?  

That would be zero.

So you can color me unimpressed with Pirro's diatribe this week against Vice President Kamala Harris for not speaking out yet about the sexual harassment charges against New York Democratic Governor Andrew Cuomo.  Frankly, Harris is following the proper decorum--the New York legislature spoke first, then the state delegation in the House and Senate, then her boss, Joe Biden, and I'm certain that at some point Harris will make a measured statement, much like Biden's.  Which is the way it is properly done, not pretending that your pervert of a candidate is some kind of an altar boy when in fact his very being comes from the depths of hell...much like Pirro has done while glorifying Satan's half-brother, Donald Trump.

Cuomo should have resigned yesterday.  I am certain that like Al Franken, the pressure from Democrats will eventually be enough to end his career either voluntarily or through the power of impeachment.  It is certain, though, that unlike republicans, we will not tolerate it.  We won't venerate him or bury our heads in the sand pretending he's a paragon of virtue who has twenty-six allegations of sexual misconduct against him that are nothing more than a conspiracy to keep his failed Presidency from continuing.

By the way, twenty-six charges for sexually abusing women are far more than a conspiracy--they're veritable proof that Donald Trump is a sick and twisted man who should be behind bars.

Out with the old, in with the new

Even more ass kicking in November?

Lost in the (much deserved) celebration last week when six out of the eight traitorous Democrats who had been caucusing with republicans in the New York Senate lost their primary bids, is that not only is this good for the state of New York but it's good for all Democrats.

Liberals have been trying to oust the eight since they first began caucusing as the IDC (Independent Democratic Cocksuckers Conference) with the republican party in 2013 without any luck.  But thanks to Donald Trump's record unpopularity, left-leaning Democrats are turning out in droves and defeating weak-kneed Democrats.  Three of the victories were considered upsets/surprises, which to me means pollsters are underestimating the turnout of our bluest supporters.

And as an added bonus, it's another nail in the coffin (admittedly it's was pretty much filled with nails already) of Andrew Cuomo and any national aspirations he may have.  Cuomo often supported the IDC, and while he won his primary, he can't be filled with a lot of hope for his political future when so many of his like-minded turncoats got sent packing.

We'll see how this plays out in November, but for now it's another very good sign in a year of very good signs.

The Democratic wing of the Democratic Party

If you're a Liberal Democrat and of a certain age, you will never forget the speech Mario Cuomo, then the Governor of New York, gave at the 1984 Democratic National Convention.  We were in the process of serving up Walter Mondale as our party's Presidential nominee to get eaten alive by Ronald Reagan, and the speech, which outlined in no uncertain terms what the Democratic Party stood for and was a stirring rebuke to all the evils that Reagan brought down on us, was the only highlight of another dismal campaign for Democrats in our quest for the White House.

Much like Barack Obama after his speech at the 2004 Democratic Convention, great things were predicted for Cuomo and many believed he would eventually be the President.  It never came to pass, and Cuomo faded from the political scene.  His one legacy now appears to be his son, Andrew, now Governor of New York and a piss poor Democrat from top to bottom whose political career will thankfully be over in four years.

Cuomo passed away this week and much is being made of what might  (and might not) have been, but all I know is that he was the light in our party's darkest hour, and despite the emergence and unfortunate strength of the Bill Clinton/Third Way wing of our party, the Democratic wing of the Democratic Party is still thriving and Cuomo's finest hour played at least a small part in its continued existence.

Changing the rules

"When the rules of the game prove unsuitable for victory, the gentlemen of England change the rules." --Harold J. Laski

The recently passed Farm Bill allows states to continue offering higher food stamp benefits if they increase the amount of heating assistance they give to low income families.  Connecticut and New York (at a cost of $1.4 million and $6 million respectively) are doing just that.  Therefore while we still struggle through the worst economic downturn since the Great Depression, needy folks in Connecticut and New York will not have to get by on $90 less for food each month.

This is exactly the kind of thinking the Democratic Party needs to embrace wholeheartedly--where there's a will there's a way to look after those most in need and not let them suffer because of republican callousness and obstructionism.  Then maybe instead of getting our votes only because they're better than the alternative, they will actually have earned them.
