He hasn’t officially announced his campaign yet, but South Bend, Ind., Mayor Pete Buttigieg has met the criteria to get on stage for the first two Democratic Party presidential debates, to be held in June and July. Buttigieg tweeted Monday that he raised more than $7 million in the first quarter of this year. And while Sunday’s first-quarter fundraising deadline prompted increased calls for money from all of the 2020 candidates, it’s not just quantity of money they’re seeking—it’s the quantity of donors. In order to appear in the first two debates, the Democratic National Committee has added new criteria: Candidates must either earn 1% support in multiple polls or receive campaign contributions from 65,000 individuals and a minimum of 200 unique donors per state in at least 20 U.S. states. Last May, the Republican National Committee voted to disband its debate committee, suggesting that the party does not have plans to host its own presidential debates.......

Pete Buttigieg
✔ @PeteButtigieg I launched a presidential exploratory committee because it is a season for boldness and it is time to focus on the future. Are you ready to walk away from the politics of the past? Join the team at http://www.peteforamerica.com . 24.9K 6:13 AM - Jan 23, 2019

Are we sure "the Biden kiss" didn't involve a sister, niece, daughter/in-law, or the daughter of a bereaved constituent?
Let's just make sure we don't repeat some scandal like Gary Hart D-CO 1978-87 had during his Presidential bid. We don't need to ruin anyone else's political career over crap.

I think one of the nagging things on my mind is the 'tone-deaf' smuggery by people under the microscope in the current WH administration. I mean come on, I don't buy that 'tone-deaf' crap for one second.
Here's what I think: I think there's gonna be a proverbial blood bath of epic proportions. You can't fuck over people, and not get caught or pay the price. And the price, I hope, will be a huge price because if it's not, then white collar crime will look easier and easier to commit, unless the biggo brakes are applied and remedies are doled out. Remedies like making tax evasion artists pay back all the million-billion's of dollars they've scammed from the US. Remedies like enforcing Anti-trust law and prosecuting big business and nameless corporate board and share holders for robbing the daylights out of everyone, when they should have been held accountable all this time. I have a massive list of grievances a mile or two, or in some cases thousands of miles long; but I'll stop there tonight, because I am guessing lots of others have massive lists of grievances as well. I'm sick to death of never hearing about how these types of criminal scam artists never get what they actually deserve, punitively. The last big personality that was held accountable was Madoff; and you-know-who in the WH is eerily just like them (to me, in my mind). I'm tired of the wretched 'rags to riches' crap that is foisted upon American public and touted as the ultimate goal anyone can achieve. That's a load of Bull-sh*t. I don't buy those long-held myths, or social scripts. I will believe justice is truly served when the occupants of the WH and their cronies, members of the crooked GOP, are held accountable for every last horrible deed they've done over their lifetimes. We don't need a proverbial 'Savior' or a 'Hero' or somesuch thing. We Don't Need Another Hero (Tina Turner, from Mad Max of Thunderdome): That song has been stuck in my mind, for days now. What we need are people who really care about the treachery being committed against the will of the people and for those people to band together and support the people who care and support the social causes that denounce this type of unpardonable behaviors which hurt not only us in America, but people in general around the world. That's what has been on my mind lately. **** Tick Tock, Tick Tock ****

Today, and yesterday, I have been listening to a radio station that airs NPR programming, usually the hosts of the radio shows I hear are hosted by Ari Shapiro and another person, but an interesting segment on one of the 'pod cast' like interviews spoke to the problem of "Moving The Goal Posts" -- which is typical of individuals who are terribly controlling, abusive and most likely have a gross case of narcissism. They were talking about WH admin and the usual suspects who've dodged responsibility, don't tell the truth, make demands that are akin to (….). Mostly they talked about how people are polarized by all the vitriol coming from you-know-who. I couldn't help but think of how all these horrid behaviors are like looking upon a mega-case of what it's like to live with someone who has such crippling toxic controlling behaviors and I found myself nodding my head in agreement to much of the subject of discussion.
And then I began to think of all the brilliant people who are working day and night around the clock, dealing with all this horrible stuff in DC and beyond. Adam Schiff, Nancy Pelosi, Maxine Waters, and a host of other elected senators, mostly Democratic Senators and Representatives in the House and those serving on Intelligence Committees and elsewhere in places of government who are under siege by the crooked GOP and the occupants of what used to be the WH. And all I could think of, while listening to all this coverage on issues that are of critical interest to every person living in America, and abroad, is when will it all end? What will it take for people to see that it's more than a civic lesson, as observed by every person being assaulted by the crimes committed by that horrid person (s) in the WH and in branches of government? It feels like an apocalyptic end of the world type sh*t show that is stuck on the same fucking tv channel. Dominated absolutely by the lunatic of all lunatics, who can't get enough attention for all the horrible crap they're committing against not only American's but against the whole entire world. And then I drifted back to Ari Shapiro, and his parents here in town, and how they never probably get to see their son or spend time with him or how he most likely has no life except to report all the news about this horrible situation our nation is enduring. By the time I finished listening to today's deeply concerning news, I pulled into the driveway, turned off the radio, then coasted to my parking spot and sat behind the wheel, numb from everything I listened to on the radio. That's what was on my mind today, concerning national politics.

2016-2024: Nearly 8 years under siege by T—-p & T—-p family members and acolytes who ‘worship’ the person who will ultimately sell everybody off into bondage and leprosy land. All I want to say is America better wake the fuck up and vote out the members of their respective political party and make sure we get Democrats elected so we can save our country from complete ruin. All Hail Every Single Judge and Elected Official Who Takes Steps To Save Our Country and Bring T——pTo Justice And Take that Terrible Person Off The Payroll. STAT.
