What Some/Many/Most Democratic Politicians Believe Today...And It Is Not Pretty

 For a very long  time I  really did not think there was much difference between a Democrat or Republican politician, that they were slightly different flavors of the  same food.  Their priorities, regardless of party, always seemed to be their next election victory, their egos in front of the cameras, and wealth enrichment of themselves and family and friends. Resolving  issues and crises facing  their constituents always seemed to be a lower priority regardless of party affiliation.

As a result, I have been  a long time voter, supporter, and member of  the Libertarian  Party, given the ineptness and selfishness of the two major parties. While they never won any elections, at least the Libertarians stood for  something distinct and important. 

But it seems to me that Democrats have gone out of  their way lately to carve out some distinctive positions  to distinguish themselves from their Republican counterparts. Specifically, it seems  that::

  • Some/many/most Democratic politicians believe that it is perfectly normal and okay for biological men to compete with biological women athletes, endangering the female  athletes’ safety and health, denying them a level playing field and stealing their opportunity for glory and victory.

  • Some/many/most Democratic politicians believe that it is perfectly normal and okay for  biological men to  share biological women’s locker rooms and restrooms.

  • Some/many/most Democratic politicians believe that is perfectly normal  and okay for  biological boy athletes to compete with biological girl  athletes, endangering the girls’ safety and  health, denying  them a  level playing field  and stealing their opportunity for victory and  glory.

  • Some/many/most Democratic politicians believe it is perfectly  normal  and okay for biological  boys to share biological  girls’ locker rooms and restrooms.

  • Some/many/most Democratic politicians believe that  illegal  immigrants are more entitled  to taxpayer funded free food, free shelter, free healthcare, free legal support, free/discounted college tuition, free  legal service, and free  cellphone service than the millions  of  American citizens who are food insecure, homeless, cannot afford health care or health insurance, cannot afford legal service, college tuition, or cell  phone service.

  • Some/many/most Democratic politicians think that defunding the police was and is a great idea, an unproven concept that has resulted in higher violent crime and homicide rates without delivering on the promises that were supposed to happen when police forces are decimated.

  • Some/many/most Democratic politicians rush to defend many illegal immigrants who are murderers, rapists, drug traffickers, sex traffickers and child labor traffickers but go silent when innocent Americans are victims of those violent illegal immigrants, e.g.  nursing student Laken Riley who was abducted, raped and killed by an illegal  immigrant, mother of five children Rachel Morin who was  abducted, raped and killed by  an illegal immigrant, 12 year old Jocelyn Nungaray who was abducted,  raped and killed by two  illegal immigrants, etc.

  • Some/many/most Democratic politicians are against any improvement in education (charter schools, private schools, vouchers, teacher competency testing) that generally result in the  better education  of our  kids, preferring  traditional public schools since such support for different, better education  options would anger a primary Democratic political donor class, teachers’ unions, whose financial  support is more  important than quality education  of  our kids.

  • Some/many/most Democratic politicians sat silently or encouraged Biden when he weaponized the Federal government to illegally go after, hinder,  harass, and persecute innocent Americans who dared to have different views  on  issues  than him including abortion, Second Amendment rights, parents peacefully speaking out at school board meetings or being a Republican member  of Congress.

  • Some/many/most Democratic politicians sat silently while liberal members  of the political class, corporate news media,, and  Hollywood viciously and  disgustedly attacked conservative/Republican women, e.g. Meg  Whitman, Republicaan candidate for governor in California, was called a whore, Playboy magazine published an article that outlined why and how ten conservative/Republican women needed to be hate raped, how someone should defecate into Sarah  Palin’s mouth, Republican Congresswoman Michelle Bachman  should kill herself, etc.

  • Some/many/most Democratic politicians sat silent or actively participated in the vicious degradation of Americans when liberal politicians, corporate news media types, and Hollywood  elite called everyday Americans Nazis, fascists, racists, stupid, flat earth believers, deniers of science, etc.

  • Some/many/most Democratic politicians support abortion up to  including full term birth and after birth.

  • Some/many/most Democratic politicians have no solution, attention span, or brain power  to  avert the  quickly approaching bankruptcy of Social Security, Medicare, and Medicaid.

  • Some/many/most Democratic politicians have been in Congress and the White House long enough to  accept at least partial blame for a national debt that is now about $40 TRILLION.

  • Some/many/most Democratic politicians are more likely to  support international terror organizations like Hamas, Hezbollah, and Iran than the  only democracy in the Middle  East, Israel.

  • Some/many/most Democratic politicians are likely to remain silent when antisemitism erupts, be it on the street or on college campuses.

  • Some/many/most Democratic politicians are more likely to ignore, allow, or profit from the massive fraud going on in government  programs with two Democratic political  strongholds, Minnesota and California, being  the leaders in allowing Medicare, Medicaid, Social Security, Covid, and  other government programs to be  defrauded of billions of taxpayer dollars.

  • Some/many/most Democratic politicians are more likely to be  leading major U.S. cities (Chicago, New York City, Los Angeles,  Seattle) and state governments (New  York, Illinois,  California, New Jersey)  into financial death  spirals and eventual and near term bankruptcy.

  • Some/many/most Democratic politicians are more likely to remain silent or actively support the insults when Democrats attack those Americans with  different opinions of themselves, e.g. Hllary Clinton’s "deplorables” statement,  Joe Biden’s "garbage" statement, Paula Collins’  MAGA  "re-education" camps statement, etc.

  • Some/many/most Democratic politicians are more likely to advocate against  simple and logical election safeguards that would help make sure that our elections are corruption free and represent the true wishes of Americans.

  • Some/many/most Democratic politicians are more likely to embrace the government concepts of Democratic Socialists, a precursor to Communism, a political and economic system that has epically failed every time in human history, often at the expense of millions of innocent lives.

  • Some/many/most Democratic politicians are more likely  to think that government is more important than parents in raising  kids, including  secretly sex transitioning kids and secretly providing abortion services to  kids without  notifying parents.

  • Some/many/most Democratic politicians think that they have the right to dictate what products citizens are allowed to use, e.g. encouraging and subsidizing electric cars, prohibiting the use of gasoline powered power tools, banning the use of natural gas appliances, etc.

  • Some/many/most Democratic politicians feel they have the right to force Americans to take  actions that may be against their wishes or religious tenets, e.g. you must take the untested Covid vaccine, you must buy Obama Care health insurance, etc.

  • Some/many/most Democratic politicians would prefer to  raise current taxes and institute new taxes than making government programs more efficient, fraud free, or disappear if those programs are useless, returning taxpayer wealth to taxpayers.

  • Some/many/most Democratic politicians were disgusted by the celebration of the  country’s  250th anniversary, a country and Constitution that has created unparalleled wealth and  freedom for the human race, preferring to dwell on  the problems and  shortcomings rather than working towards solutions to those problems and shortcomings.

  • Some/many/most Democratic politicians always knee jerk to blame Trump for all  of their perceived ills in the country rather  than working to remedy those ills.

As I  said upfront, the Democrats have  gone out  of their way to prove what they stand for. Biological men and biological boys competing in women and girls’ sports and  sharing common locker rooms is okay. Illegal immigrants getting much better treatment than Americans  in need is okay. Government fraud,  incompetence, and economic ignorance is okay. Simply blaming Trump and  the  country for all  of  their  perceived ills while offering  no solutions is okay. Violence preached against Republican women, Republican members of Congress, Jewish  students and other citizens, and  those with a different opinion  is okay.  Weaponizing  the government to go after innocent Americans is okay.

Yes, Democrats have come a  long  way to distinguish  themselves and it is not a pretty sight. No solutions, no compassion or respect for ordinary Americans, no respect for the welfare, safety, and future of the country or its citizens.

Feel  free  to comment and  engage in a mature, adult conversation based on facts and  history on  any of the observations listed above. However, if your argument consists of  some  form  of “Trump is bad,” please do not bother. That is not a coherent or rational  argument.

June, 2026, Political Class Insanity: More Chicago Carnage, Mamdani's Ideas Continue to Fail, A Loan Sharking NJ Councilman, and The Post Office Financial Death Spiral

 We have spent a lot of our recent posts about which state or city will go bankrupt first and the massive fraud that has been going on relative to government programs. But that does not mean that the potential class has been up to its traditional incompetence, insanity,  and screw ups. So, let’s catch up with  the shenanigans that continue to plague the country:


1)We have previously discussed the reality that the Post Office is in serious financial trouble. Over the past few decades the volume of first class  mail pieces has decreased from  about 220 million first class mail pieces a year to about 110 million  a year. It is obvious  to anyone with a just a bit of common  sense that the  Post Office has been hurtling towards bankruptcy and something has to be  done  to prevent that.


But over the decades the Washington political class has done nothing to  resolve  the financial problems facing the  Post Office,  so much so  that this  is where we find ourselves today:


  • If nothing  had  been done,  the  Post Office was going to run out of cash for  operations by 2027.

  • The good news is that the day of reckoning has been delayed to 2031 or so.

  • The bad news  is  that the Post Office management has stopped making payments  into their  employees’ retirement funds, endangering the retirement payments to retiring/retired Post Office employees.

  • Thus, just to  keep operating, the Post Office is  using employee retirement funds to keep afloat, a tactic that only delays the inevitable financial  disaster.

  • According to the Postmaster General: "What we are doing right now is we're basically borrowing money from our retirement plans to fund current operations. I'm not particularly comfortable with that. I promise you our employees are not particularly comfortable with that. You all shouldn't be comfortable with that. None of us should be comfortable with that. To me, that's why we have to have this discussion of how we fix this broken business model."

  • The Post Office lost a whopping  $2 billion  in  this  fiscal year’s second quarter after losing $9 billion last year.


The  Post Office business model  is certainly now in the  decline stage of its life cycle. Drastic, courageous action is needed by the political  class to develop and deploy a new business model. Whether it is restricting the  number of days it delivers mail, consolidating Post Office locations to save  on  real estate  and  utility costs, etc. something  has to be  done.  The mail volume will continue to decrease, expenses  will continue to  go up, that is reality and  denying that reality makes the end  result  even worse.


Unfortunately, as we all know, the American politicians always have neither the  ability, the foresight, or courage to take the drastic actions needed to resolve any problem  facing the country. Including changing the business model of postal operations.


Side note: I have been  doing a little survey  of  mail deliveries on my own. Over the past four days, I have received 21 pieces  of mail. Seventeen  of  those mail  pieces were advertisements for  tree pruning, auto sales, real estate sales, and other business  advertisements. Only four  pieces of mail were non-advertising and important in my life. Whether I  got those advertisements today or tomorrow would make no difference in my life. 


My point: given how much less important mail we all receive these  days, it would  probably not be a hardship if the Post Office not only dropped Saturday delivery but could probably drop Tuesday and Thursday deliveries also. A day delay in getting that auto deal advertisement is not a big deal. Restricting mail delivery days would greatly reduce costs and give the Post Office some financial  breathing  room.


But to think that our politicians  in Washington  have the courage to restrict the number of  delivery days, or do anything else needed to fix what is broken,  is  just wishful thinking.


2)One would hope that those elected to serve the citizens in their government entity would be  of the highest honor and integrity.  Unfortunately, that is not often the case, as illustrated by a recent situation in New Jersey:


  • A New Jersey sitting councilman was recently  arrested for allegedly running a loansharking operation out of his council  office.

  • Yes, running  an illegal criminal enterprise out of his government  office, unreal.

  • Councilman  John  Alite, of Englishtown was arrested and charged with theft by extortion, corporate misconduct, usury, and terroristic threats.

  • He was arrested with another gentleman who was allegedly his partner in running a  loan shark racket.

  • They are accused of making loans at so-called "extreme rates” and threatened  loan recipients with violent acts to force repayment, a classic organized  crime loansharking approach.

  • But these allegation maybe should not surprise us since  15 years ago  he received a 10 year prison sentence on  racketeering charges and yet still ended up being a high ranking city government  official.

  • He supposedly had ties to  the Gambino crime family and  notorious gangster, John  Gotti Jr.


Obviously these two gentlemen  are presumed innocent until proven guilty in  a court of  law.  But if the allegations are true, it really makes you wonder how broken our political  processes are if someone with a long criminal record can get elected and yet continue those criminal activities out of a  taxpayer funded office. 


3)We have not been a fan of New York City mayor,  Zohran Mamdani,  since he  was  elected. His ideas of government border on communism and we know from history  that communism  is a failed style of governance that is not conducive to freedom and a high quality of  life.


But that does not mean he has not promised a high quality of life for his citizens. He has  proposed "free" day care, “free” bus service, and greatly reduced grocery prices in government  run grocery stores. Of  course,”free” is a misleading adjective since someone is going to  have to pay for all of his “free” services  and that someone is the  city taxpayer who will be taxed at a higher and higher rate  to fund his ideas.


But these ideas have previously failed miserably around  the country and  around  the world. Government run grocery stores in the  Soviet Union and communist eastern  Europe were  disasters with minimal  product offerings at high prices. His idea to operate government run, reduced priced grocery stores was tried and failed in Kansas City. The city lost $18 million of taxpayer wealth trying to implement Mamdani’s government grocery idea which failed miserably in  just a  single store location.


And Kansas City,  which tried to implement another of Mamdani’s communist  concepts, has another failure  on  its hands:


  • Kansas City attempted to  operate  a city bus system where there was no charge to those using the bus  system,  much  like the concept Mamdani wants to implement in  New York City.

  • But the  city  politicians recently abandoned the idea  and started charging people  bus fares once they found out that they could not  afford this “free” service.

  • The Kansas City “free” bus service started back in 2020.

  • The concept of  “free” bus service operated for a while but was surviving financially because of Covid relief  dollars that flowed to the city and its bus operations under the Biden regime.

  • However, once the Federal government  source of those funds dried  up it became obvious that the free service could not survive without huge  government subsidies.

  • Thus, the city’s politicians were faced  with a brutal choice: greatly reduce bus service until the city government could afford to  provide free service or start charging again for bus ridership.

  • The  original forecasted cost of suspending charging for bus fares was estimated at $8.8 million a year but the real cost of “free”  bus  service actually came in at almost double the cost or about $15 million a year, $15 million  that city taxpayers were going to have to pay to keep the “free” service.


A failed concept that has a proven  track record of failure and yet, Mamdani is still pressing  ahead with the idea. The cost of Kansas City’s  “free”  bus failure is likely tiny compared to the massively larger bus service that New York City would try to make free and probably fail doing. A failure in  New York City would not be a  mere $15 million but orders of magnitude higher, which again,  would  eventually require massive cuts to  service or the eventual return to bus fares, exactly what happened in Kansas City. 


And for a city facing larger  and larger  structural  budget shortfalls in the coming years, it  is  unknown and  doubtful  if Mamdani could find the additional funding that would cover the massive  loss of bus fare  revenue.


Einstein  once said “The definition of  insanity is doing the same thing over and  over and expecting  different  results.”  This concept obviously is unknown to Mamdani. Government  grocery stores have failed many times. Free bus service has already failed in a  smaller city that could not support a much smaller bus  operation than New York City. Failed concepts that will make a failing financial situation  in New York City fail  even quicker with no benefit to city residents.


4)The  last piece of  political  class  insanity today  is  just another tragic  chapter in the long story of violent  insanity from the the city of Chicago:


  • Despite a new mayor, the violence in the city continues to grind out every day.

  • During a recent weekend,  six residents were shot and killed and another 39  were  gunshot wounded.

  • Unfortunately, this is just another pretty typical example of the  constant  gun violence in Chicago, violence that the  city’s politicians have no clue on how  to get under control.


And yet the  mayor and  the Illinois governor refuse  to  accept help from the Trump administration to help reduce the violence. They would rather have their citizens die and live in fear than  accept help from the President they detest.


 Since a very basic tenet of any government entity is  to  protect the lives  and property of the citizens they serve, their Trump  Derangement Syndrome is preventing them from executing  this basic government  entity.  And because of their stubbornness, Chicago residents will continue to die unnecessarily.


Enough insanity for today: more  carnage in  Chicago, Mamdani’s favorite  programs are already failures, a  loan sharking  politician in New Jersey, and the Post office financial death spiral gets worse.
