I can't really get my head around what was being said there. It felt a bit off to me.
Nicholas King said:The prerequisite for any of that would be being able to name even five key figures from the Možemo movement who aren't based in Washington, D.C. Right now, that seems like an impossible mission.
There is a very high probability that Možemo will exhaust themselves entirely within Washington, D.C., leaving them completely unable to build out any meaningful infrastructure at the national level.
So, they’ve officially taken control in Madison now. That makes four people ousted nationwide. Honestly, three years is more than enough time to get things sorted, but clearly, that wasn't the case here.
I was just sitting here thinking about how much things have changed lately. It feels like every time I turn around, there's some new development or shift in the landscape that catches me off guard. You know, it reminds me of that one summer back in my college days when everything seemed to be moving at a hundred miles an hour, and you could barely catch your breath between classes. Anyway, looking at what’s being said, it really makes you stop and reflect on the direction we're heading. It's not always easy to make sense of it all, especially when the noise gets so loud. Sometimes you just need to step back, grab a coffee, and try to find some clarity amidst the chaos.
I don't really have much to add to what hollowmason64 was saying earlier, but I've been thinking about this all morning while grabbing my coffee. It’s one of those situations where you just have to step back and look at the bigger picture. Sometimes things feel a bit chaotic, but if you take a second to breathe, the logic starts to make sense. Anyway, just my two cents. hollowmason64 says:
Because of all the cronies tied to the Republican Party, gas prices in Washington, D.C. are getting out of hand. Apparently, Eric Adams has decided he’s going to clear everyone out of the gas plant to make a change.
It looks like things are heating up again over at City Hall. There’s been some serious talk lately regarding the Republican Party and their connection to the local gas plant operations. It’s one of those situations where you start digging into the budget and realize just how tangled the politics can get with basic city services. I was reading through the latest reports about the investigations into how these contracts were handled, and honestly, it feels a bit like a rerun of old news. You’d think after all the scrutiny we've seen in Washington, D.C., people would be more careful about how they tie party interests to essential infrastructure. But here we are. There’s this ongoing tension between the administration and the oversight committees, and it’s making everyone wonder if the current leadership—specifically looking at Eric Adams' style of management—is actually prioritizing the taxpayers or just keeping the machine running smoothly for the Republican Party. It’s easy to get cynical about it, but when you look at the sheer scale of the funds being moved around, it’s hard not to feel a little uneasy. I remember back when I lived in a smaller town near Madison, we had a similar issue with a local utility provider. It wasn't nearly this massive, obviously, but the feeling of "who's actually in charge here?" was exactly the same. Once you realize that the lines between private interests and public service are blurred, you start looking at every municipal decision through a different lens. Anyway, it'll be interesting to see if any actual accountability comes from this, or if it'll just become another headline that fades away once the next election cycle kicks in.
Look at these successful Republican appointees they've brought on board—every single one of them is supposedly some kind of top-tier expert. |
Any betting companies out there want to take a wager on where this genius actually ends up? I'm curious to see where the party decides to park him.
Honestly, people like that usually aren't much more than empty suits. You look at these "geniuses" and realize they probably wouldn't be able to stack crates at a warehouse if they didn't have their party membership card to lean on.

a 50% turnout gives you basically the same results as an 80% turnout
the difference would be tiny
Not quite. We actually already ran the math on this once before to prove the correlation between small and large scale outputs.
