A SENATOR BROKE A PROTESTER'S ARM!!! #news #iran #senate YouTube video by Ana Marie Cox

BlueSkyers probably know a sitting senator broke an Iran war protester's arm during a hearing last week. I talk about why it's important and what it symbolizes about the war in general.

(Another morning video without making it—or me—perfect!)

Probably ‘cause I’ve been in a successful marriage for over 40 years with the guy I fell for at 19, 45 years ago, but I disagree.

If humans lost the ability to lie, it would be the industry of Politics that takes the greatest hit.

I currently endeavor to consume a minimum of news, so this Wake Co. North Carolinian missed this big election response.

Let it serve as a warning to the rest of the country: Dems are not tolerating Republicans in sheep costumes.

D’s voting with R’s will be primaried.

They MUST be elected OUT.

A victory for Minnesotans . . . and all Americans. March 6, 2026

For all the Doom Scrollers out there, this is what winning looks like, while living under an authoritarian regime.

And there it is.

The ruling party of the USA is peopled with psychopaths.

If we ever developed a test to determine fitness for public office, it would be to identify psychopathologies, and rule out potential “leaders” who are sociopaths.

We deserve better than being ruled by a pack of psychos.

The “Save Act” saves nothing, but gives Trump ability to control elections.

They aren’t protecting elections; they’re engineering outcomes.

I’ve reached the conclusion that there is a specific psychological profile that makes being a fascist appealing; it is a psychological profile that is incompatible with mine.

I choose to no longer allow such people access.

I can wish them well, AND wish them well away from me.

Another great response to ex-MAGA who just want to be appreciated & loved for … leaving MAGA.

Back in my church days, no Christian comforted me when an entire prayer group scolded and shamed me for admitting my children were learning science rather than creationism.

I’m all for personal growth and redemption, so, good for Carter and her ex-MAGA pals; keep up the hard and necessary work.

And those of us who did “the work”DECADES ago, and tried to warn you, do not owe your conscience warm fuzzies.

Maybe do your catharsis offline; that works for us oldsters.

Let’s not underestimate the lasting cognitive damage from strokes and other vascular disorders.

I often wonder if conservative policy/philosophy is actually a result of cognitive dysfunction.

What’s that scripture verse —since they LOVE quoting their floppy bibles— about the hypocrisy of seeing a speck in someone else's eye while ignoring the log in one’s own?

Damn.

Our outgoing Republican Senator from NC is actually doing the work of fighting for democracy.

I don’t know where he found his balls, but good for him.

Corporate-sponsored gaslighting falls flat in 2026.

1) Whomever voted for this deserves to be held in contempt, marked with a scarlet M, for eternity

2) “Radical Liberals” don’t hold a monopoly on morality; anyone with empathy knows we live in a time of Trump-branded EVIL, even many Republicans.

Yep.

And to affirm said fact, one need look no further than this utopian novel, published in 1915.

The matriarchy must rise for humanity to survive.

DOJ's recent 6th Circuit filing misspelled:

Voters as “Votors”
Emergency as "Emeregency"
United States as "United Staes"

And, it included a non-party in the caption.

These are the people who want access to your sensitive voting records and who my team fights in court every day.

Don't be distracted by Trump's illegal war on Iran. March 2, 2026

“…that Trump has more latitude … to conduct military operations does not change the calculus regarding his ability to regulate elections. Unlike war powers, where the president shares joint authority with Congress, the Constitution assigns no role to the president in the conduct of elections.”

He does look a bit like Andrew Lloyd Webber! (Maybe they share the same plastic surgeon.)

100% agree; even the brief time I lived in Cambridge, England, and later, in Bergamo, Italy left a lifelong impression.

One learns and appreciates a lot about other cultures as a guest outside one’s homeland, & discovers how vulnerable one is without citizenship, even if there with permission.

"Some observers might wonder whether first lady Melania Trump might have similar insight about the times her husband and Epstein moved in similar orbits before and after their marriage in 2005.

I suspect Melania knows far more about the Epstein Class than any Clinton ever did.
