You always could see the profound stuff better than most, and had your finger on the pulse e,g, she is legitimately smart and centered.

Like AOC.

These are two smart women fighting for the poor and downtrodden, and our country, like both of us have done our entire lives!

My comfort in my old age is I never sold out.

I always knew compassion and empathy were the most important things in life.

Good luck for an aggresive smart black woman to win significant purple and red voters outside blue districts. She is prime meat to the RW machine.

American reality continues to bring less agressive national Democratic Party leaders like Hakeem Jeffries, old-school Shumer -- and thanks to Trump the ever-present piñata of poor Joe Biden.

Zohran Momdani kicks ass too but his local NYC words be twisted and amplified in vulnerable 2026 Congressional elections in suburban, rural and other red districts. Bloodthirsty neonazi's and reliable republican puppets in Brooks Brothers suits are salivating. All of them controlled by the Masters of Project 2025.

The reality of racism and replacement theory lives on in the broader American faux-populist fear machine. Crockett, like AOC and Bernie, has a major uphill challenge making a difference outside the educated liberal bubble. Compounded because many poor, working and lower middle class supporters do not vote - for a multitude of reasons. Oh and voter supression.

Crocket is our fresh goddess. It makes me feel great to hear her persuasive often bare-knuckle responses. BUT I also see that she is delicious prey to the RW predators.

Obama and Biden appealed to the mass moderate middle; the bluest left never trusted or endorsed them. Enough voted for them because they had no choice other than Ralph Nader in 2008 or Russia channeller Jill Stein in 2012.

Our best leaders are currently drowned noise in a flooded zone. We are phucked without a true #1 leader to be our "Moses" vs. Satin. Who will it be?????? Who can breakthrough the spell? Lord knows Crockett, Pritzker, Newsom, Schiff, Raskin and others are trying to get broad message traction against the orange crush.

On an optimistic political note, there are some big holes in their current Project 2025 offensive as the social net is ripped away. We must have better unity and solidarity going into 2026.
