I said it before. We need Adam’s fireside chats every afternoon, just like FDR did during WW II. He inspires like few others at a time when it’s in short supply, and to me that brings a measure of calm and sanity.

Agreed! I wish he would run for president or vice president as an Independent if he can’t see himself running as a Democrat.

Laura Nas's avatar

I would vote for him in a heartbeat!

The constitution dies the moment a U.S. marshal refuses to enforce a contempt order!!!

And today, at three p m on CNN trump threatened President Zelenski's life. He said “he will sign the contract, or he will no longer be here”. Considering that there have been a dozen assassination attempts in the last three years on President Zelensky's life and that's a significant threat and likely direct from Putin's mouth.

And WHAT INFURIATES ME?NOBODY IS PICKING IT UP, NOT THE MAINSTREAM MEDIA, NOT FOX, NOT CNN - NOBODY IS PICKING UP A DIRECT THREAT TO ZELENSKY.

Please share widely. Make it an urgent talking point - get it to the media.

Tonite, both the Times and Post are reporting that all military aid to Ukraine is being stopped until Emperor Pissy Pants decides Ukraine "is serious" about peace.

Neither paper has stated the obvious -- he can't legally do that. These are already approved Congressional appropriations packages, not whims subject to his displeasure.

jane's avatar

And yet he stopped U.S. Aid, fired the Inspectors General with not a peep from Congress ...

Mari Wilson's avatar

He can if no one stands up to him.

Journal Bin's avatar

Wow this is first I heard of it

Skybo's avatar

whoa! I missed that!!

My fervent desire is for Dems to start having town hall meetings in red districts everywhere. The GOP is so invertebrate now and so scared of their constituents that the Dems have a massive opportunity to give people an opportunity to express their outrage, be heard and create a path forward. We have to take advantage now.

Richard Breining's avatar

Unfortunately there is no effective Democratic Party in my County (part of Adam's last district). They have a website and an Executive Board, but no scheduled meetings (the last one was in 2021). I don't know how the Executive Board would react to a (anti trump, anti maga, anti trumplican) registered Republican joining their ranks and working with them to (a) recruit members and (b) schedule town halls.😒😒😒 I guess a good first step is to register Demcrat.🤔🤔🤔

Richard, I was a Republican for 45 years until 2016. I did not know anything about trump, so I researched him and did not like what I found. I voted for Hillary and Democrats all down the ballot. When the 2018 election rolled around, I switched my registration to Democrat because I realized my Republican Party was in its death throes because MAGA was taking over. I was a moderate Republican and now I am a moderate Democrat. I have always believed in equal rights for everyone and in helping those who are in need.

Independent is another option, but maybe only slightly more palatable to the county Democratic Party. Plus, I need to determine how registering Independent will affect what I will get for a Primary election ballot.

Mari Wilson's avatar

That's been the only thing holding me back. For decades. But that’s how both parties like it. 😤

jane's avatar

Bernie has been doing it.

Ballard Graham's avatar

Zelenskyy held his own against the two bullies!

virginia arthur's avatar

Yes, he did. He is a great man and a strong president. trump and vance together are not half the man President Zelensky is.

Tamara's avatar

Thank you for your leadership, Sir. We are in dire need of wisdom, courage and tenacity. You are officially my go-to person for strategic family planning. We got this. 🫡💙

Fatarae's avatar

The debacle in the Oval Office where trump and vance viciously bullied Zelenskyy was shocking and demoralizing on so many levels.

Susan Ross's avatar

The way Trump and Vance spoke to Zelensky was a repeat of Nazi officers demanding a Jewish man bow down. At least that’s what it looked like to me.

KC Compton's avatar

I also wish every Dem would show up in Zelensky’s tactical uniform.

Carol B.'s avatar

If memory serves, Zelensky stated at the beginning of the war - I mean - INVASION, that he would keep dressing in his tactical uniform until the Russians stopped their attacks on his country. Vance sounded like a needy boy trying to get his father's/Trump's attention. I don't think for a minute it was spontaneous, btw.

No but it would be to honor Ukrainians and stand up to their abuse of Zelenskyy. It say we are with you

Mari Wilson's avatar

Love this. Would a Slava Ukraini or Ukraini flag pin be ok?

KC Compton's avatar

Both!!! Big and unmistakable.

Raissa, I'm glad you pointed out that uniforms would be disrespectful. Certainly, flags would be a better idea.

KC Compton's avatar

As a show of solidarity and support for Ukraine and Zelensky. Not as entertainment.

Patricia Rogus's avatar

Adam, a blurb just came on my phone saying that Trump has discontinued assistance to Ukraine!!!!

Carol B.'s avatar

I thought only Congress could do that????

Paul Olmsted's avatar

And essentially ended the US position of supporting democracy over totalitarianism.

Official US Government policy has now switched sides .

Every single member of congress with a spine needs to exit the chamber tomorrow as

Putin’s ally enters to speak.

Journal Bin's avatar

Or dress like Zelenskyy because we are also fighting a Russian occupation

Rachel Eryn Kalish's avatar

So appreciate this Adam! All of it. Including the stock tips. 🤷🏼‍♀️.

I do wonder abt the protest strategy. I think the regime is just waiting for those to get large so they can declare martial law. I’m doing economic boycotts and more inclined that way. Nothing can stop those.

Anyway thank you as always for your voice. Was with Canadian cousins this weekend who were raving abt you. They said Canadians are genuinely scared and deeply sad and they won’t buy US products either.

Journal Bin's avatar

Remember the truckers shutting down cities. It works by sheer numbers. The time is coming. People haven’t felt the full effects but they will of losing jobs, healthcare, services, poor economy bc fewer exports, lack of leadership and government infrastructure. Chaos is not popular.

Nola Fingmatter's avatar

Hi - just wanted to echo your comment about the regime waiting for protests to get large enough to where they can declare martial law. I'm pretty sure that IS the plan. AND it will be supported by our own State Media (FOX News) telling viewers that Antifa / The Democrats / Radical Leftists or whatever have gotten totally out of control and are burning our cities so we HAVE to have Martial Law... So, any thoughts on how to get around THAT - would be a good topic for discussion / strategy.

I'm a Vietnam Era Veteran and during my time in the. service I spent months at a time on a submarine underwater at the frontlines of the Cold War against Russian aggression. And to see this president and republican congress turn over all we accomplished to a Russian dictator is despicable. I realize I should watch Trump's State of the Union address, but it infuriates me to hear his lies. And then on top of that to see the Republicans cheer him on is beyond deplorable.

Ballard Graham's avatar

The nerve of Musk to say SS is a Ponzie scheme! How disrespectful to those who paid into the SS !

Bob K.'s avatar

Adam, we need you to speak out everywhere possible. The country is in trouble .

lynn sargent's avatar

Pass on his videos...I do...people have no idea that heros like Adam are trying to instruct us and have us understand what we need to do to help ourselves and our country.....

Journal Bin's avatar

I think he needs to run for President. Best person I’ve seen

L. B. L.'s avatar

Thank you for your explanations and your fighting spirit.

Shannon Pritchard's avatar

I like your videos Adam! Don't listen to the complainers. We all need to keep this information at the forefront. Thanks so much Adam!!!!

Paul Goshi's avatar

Good summary of the recent events. Btw -- 100% agree with your comment on BlueSky, I wish the Dems would attend in Zelensky's outfit. But it looks like Hakeem is going to be a good boy and "be dignified."

Maryann W's avatar

I'm sorry but ENOUGH with the dignified!

Journal Bin's avatar

We’re beyond dignity. They’ve launched a war. They are destroying our government and nation

Mari Wilson's avatar

See above comment by RAISSA re: wearing Zelenskyy’s tactical clothing.

virginia arthur's avatar

It does not matter what they wear. They should sit with their backs to trump and loudly BOO him when he lies. They need to show a united front against trump and the Republicans.
