Status Quo Politics is holding us back. Who will call for a big fight, and big change? The status quo cannot hold. The Old Ways of Congress are gone. A New Congress is needed.https://bsky.app/profile/protecttruth.bsky.socialhttps://bsky.app/profile/protecttruth.bsky.social/post/3mut3uilglk2rIt is hard to overstate how the two people in this video did everything they could, for their entire careers, to bring us Trump.

First, politicians, especially in our current gridlocked system, have very little ability to bring down prices, especially in the short term. Accountability would be much higher profile.

We know who the crooks are. But ppl here are in the top 1% of political knowledge. Much of the public does not know and educating is important. If the leadership is afraid to name the other party now, will they have the courage to go after the other party in the future?

Perhaps obviously, a lot abt 2027-28 depends on Congr D leadership and their path. I’ll be happy to be proven wrong, but the signs *right now* are bad. Jeffries is not signaling strong accountability, and the centrist status quo forces look strong. 1/ https://www.notus.org/newsletters/early-departure04 Sep 2026 14:49 +0000at://did:plc:vklsm2d67fx7pirahnp2qd2m/app.bsky.feed.post/3mup7jtaeoc2ehttps://bsky.app/profile/protecttruth.bsky.social/post/3munywobi7s2uThe Dominion settlement was $700+M and Bartiromo’s lies about elections were a key part of it. There is one way that Fox is not allowed to lie now and that is about voter fraud, because of the Dominion settlement.

One big reason NYT Politics is effectively pro-Trump is b/c Trump has power. NYT Opinion killed @adambonica.bsky.social’s report criticizing Dem leaders. And DealBook hosts Musk.
