Democratic Leadership should mount DAILY CITIZENS’ BRIEFING. Maybe it’s like a Fireside Chat or even like a talk show, say, “Meet the Democrats.” But this briefing would be aimed at American Citizens (not the press). And it would serve a host of desperately needed and essential communication related functions.
Please Share and spread the word:
DEMOCRATS’ A DAILY CITIZENS’ BRIEFING

Democrats need to win elections. We need Dem leaders LIKE YOU to do the things which are necessary to win elections. You know how I know you are not doing those things? Because Dem lost big in 2024 despite having fixed the post pandemic economy, despite having a far superior presidential candidate who was running against one of the previous worst presidents in American History (and a 34 times convicted felon and adjudicated rapist). Come on!
We had a chance when Biden was president:
‼️to put trump away for his crimes
‼️to grow the Dem base
‼️to save Democracy by expanding voting rights
‼️to massively register new Dem voters
‼️to develop new/innovative methods of communication to target specific groups that are not being reached or who turned to MAGA against their best interests
‼️to make masterful use of standard communication methods to reach/persuade/motivate Dem votes
‼️to communicate with and convince people to resist the influence of MAGA lies/racism/bigotry/fear mongering/hatred/fascist propaganda and instead vote for Democrats which would be in their own best interests
‼️to neutralize MAGA lies/misinformation/disinformation/racism/bigotry/fear mongering/hatred/fascist propaganda and effectively replace it with Dem messaging
‼️to control the narrative
‼️to use Mainstream/Legacy/Corporate Media to Left-Wing advantage
‼️to establish/support/feed A LEFT WING FOURTH ESTATE/MASS MULTI MEDIA ECOSYSTEM (the effectiveness of the R wing 4th estate is one of the biggest reasons they win elections, because their actual policies and legislation are terrible for people and economies)
‼️to aggressively support/nurture/feed/amplify/elevate the Left Wing Fifth Estate which is pretty much the only thing that us actually keeping the Democratic Party afloat
DEM LEADERSHIP DID NOT DO THOSE THINGS!
DEMOCRATIC LEADERSHIP SHOULD START DOING ALL THESE THINGS NOW: AGGRESSIVELY AND WITH PASSION.
We Democrats can have EVERYTHING we want if we win elections. SO THEN HOW ABOUT WE DO THAT? But it will take DEMOCRATIC LEADERSHIP.
Love,
THE VOTE IS THE ANTIDOTE

#TaxBillionaires 🛑BILLIONAIRES FROM HOARDING WEALTH/RESOURCES THAT THEY EXPLOITED YOU TO GET: musk bought a president so he could get richer by screwing you over
Find out who voted red & WHY & then: address those issues: persuade them to the left: solve the problems.
Grow/Unify the Left Wing Ecosystem
Create a wildly successful/effective Left Wing Media Machine (MSM is NOT a Liberal Media. They are Corporate Media and have ZERO interest in Democracy: they exist to make $ for share holders. Period.)
Create a wildly effective Left Wing Propaganda Machine
First things first: Figure out how to get the people who vote solely based on the price of eggs to vote for Democrats
Create a Democratic culture of voting so Democrats are totally committed to voting blue in every election, up and down ballot
Create a Democratic culture of “get up off your ass” and do something
Disrupt the cycle where Rs crash economies, Dems fix then but don’t get credit
Create commissions devoted to demographic groups to find out what they want/need and use liberal means so they have what they want
Win hearts, minds, needs, wants, with honest, effective policies
Let’s start with hope I threw it in the middle like a skipping stone The ripples won, son of a gun Some would not have thought so But I stand here Commander in Chief And I take that seriously
But along the way A rogue ripple turned tidal wave In reaction to what I tried to do A rebirth of a nation’s hatred Red, white, and blue Is black in there too? Seriously?
One man Rewriting the book on bad behavior Maybe cheats the neighbors Feels he gets what they pay for We can’t Pat him on the back and send him on through No man’s ignorance will ever be his virtue Is this the best we can be? Seriously?
Let’s talk of fear And why I don’t bring it in here It’s a dangerous word, it spooks the herd And we all bleed in the stampede Fear makes a false friend indeed And I take it seriously
So hear me now Before the truth gets drowned out By a demagogue flexing Because he’s got a God complex He’s history repeating
Angry? Am I angry? You ask am I angry? And I’m at a loss for words
After all we’ve done Every battle hard won Every hair gone gray In the name of this place In a history plagued With incredible mistakes I pledge my allegiance to these United divided States Seriously
Let’s end with “why”? It’s a question I Want to ask of us as a populace Why not take our time or the weight of this story Seriously

DEMOCRATS💙 MAKE 💪🏾BETTER 🚀ECONOMIES💰💵💸 THAN REPUBLICANS: THE US ECONOMY DOES ASTONISHINGLY BETTER UNDER DEMOCRATS (than Republicans) BY EVERY CONSEQUENTIAL MEASURE
We must reverse the public’s dangerously FALSE perception that the opposite is true.
#DemocratsMakeBetterEconomies #VoteBlue
REPUBLICAN POLICIES CAUSE POVERTY AND HIGHER CRIME RATES. Higher poverty causes higher crime.
Republican policy that fuels rises in poverty and crime are bad for the economy. Conversely, DEMOCRATIC POLICIES REDUCE BOTH CRIME AND POVERTY AND CREATE BETTER ECONOMIES.
It happens over and over again. Republicans come in and crash the economy with policies that help rich white people which ushers in high poverty, crime, and causes recessions. Then Democrats come in and fix the economy, lowering poverty and crime rates (but doing this can’t be dine instantly, it takes time) while Republicans wage bullshit culture wars, drench everything with a firehose of falsehoods, and blame Ds for how long it takes to fix the economy. So Republicans win elections based on their lies & culture war complaints then go in again to crash the economy with tax cuts for rich people and the cycle repeats.
There’s a solution to this vicious circle:
#ElectMoreDemocrats and then keep them in office.

Thanks to the Biden/Harris Administration: U.S. Economy Again Leads the World, IMF Says: International Monetary Fund upgrades U.S. growth outlook as strong investment boosts productivity
Economists Agree: Democratic Presidents are Better at Making Us Rich. Eight Reasons Why: Democratic administrations over the last century have delivered far faster economic growth. What explains that?
DEMOCRATS MAKE BETTER ECONOMIES THAN REPUBLICANS. Rs make economies that work only for the very rich and for corporations. DEMOCRATS MAKE ECONOMIES THAT WORK FOR EVERYONE
*
Economic Policy Institute (EPI): New report finds that the economy performs better under Democratic presidential administrations
Under Biden, U.S. economic growth becomes the ‘envy of the world’
The United States’ economy looks strong compared to recent history, but comparing it to countries abroad, the Biden-era economy looks even more amazing.

“Today’s data shows that wage growth has been the strongest of any economic recovery in 50 years – and inflation declined two thirds from its peak. I’ll continue to fight to lower costs for middle class families and stand in the way of Congressional Republicans who disagree.”
DEMOCRATS MAKE BETTER ECONOMIES THAN REPUBLICANS. Republicans ruin economies then Democrats rush in to fix them. It has happened over and over again.

“Under President Biden – U.S. GDP grew at 5.2% last quarter…For reference — GDP growth averaged about 0.95% during Trump’s time in office.”
“President Joe Biden’s economic policies drove an unexpected economic surge that has forced Morgan Stanley to make a “sizable upward revision” in its GDP forecasts.”
“Biden’s 2021 infrastructure bill has created “a boom in large-scale infrastructure,” wrote MS analysts, while domestic business investment “is rebounding, led by manufacturing.””
Morgan Stanley credits Bidenomics for ‘much stronger’ than expected GDP growth
“Despite a year when inflation pushed prices to new heights, Americans are still better off now than before the pandemic, with nearly 10 to 15 percent more in their bank accounts than in 2019, new checking and savings account data shows.”
Thanks to #Bidenomics, USA has best Pandemic recovery & lowest inflation of world’s wealthiest countries. Will MSM report that, inform the public, & correct GOP liars?
Gavin Newsom, the Governor of California (which has the 4th LARGEST ECONOMY IN THE WORLD) takes Hannity to lunch over the fact that DEMOCRATS MAKE BETTER ECONOMIES THAN REPUBLICANS.
Newsom: 71% of the GDP in America are blue counties. Progressive policies. Seven of the top ten dependent states are your states. We’re subsidizing your states because of your policies pic.twitter.com/f1XFDuPLIV
Bobby Kogan explains how Republican Tax Cuts for the Very Wealthy (what he calls “changes in revenue”) are entirely responsible for our National Debt. In other words, to reduce our national debt, we don’t need to cut government services that help The People, we need to reclaim revenue by taxing the very wealthy and going after wealthy tax cheats.
“The economy does better under Democrats than under Republicans…It has a governing party and a screwing-around party. Talking up their superior economic record would help Democrats make that a lot clearer to voters.”
Hello everyone. So, I represent Texas and we know that abortion is on the ballot. And, to be clear, tonight we saw two things. People can choose between a Con-in-Chief or a Commander-in-Chief. And so what we saw was someone who sat up there and was acting as if he was some used car salesman that wanted to just tell us whatever and pretend as if it was fact. The reality is that our president submitted to you what looks like substance. The substance of the issue was simple. We have somebody that is bragging about the fact that he took Roe v. Wade away from us, whereas we know the next step. They’ve gone after mifepristone, they wanna go after contraception, and unfortunately in the state of Texas, they are talking about instituting the death penalty. What the American people have to decide is that they are going to choose themselves. This election isn’t about all the lies that trump is selling you. What it’s about is the facts. The facts are that he took that right away from us. And he wants to take more rights away from us. And he did not shy away from it. Every time he didn’t want to answer a question, he just decided to deflect. The reality is that people are dying. We had over 26,000 women that were impregnated in the state of Texas alone in the last year since the Dobbs Decision AS A RESULT OF RAPE. That is unacceptable. You all know the story of Kate Cox. You know the story of Dr. Denard. You know the story of women that are potentially losing their lives. And so there is only one clear choice. And that clear choice is Joe Biden and his Blue Team. And that’s exactly why we’re here.
After watching the presidential debate, it is even more clear that our Democracy is on the ballot this November. We must do everything we can to make sure trump doesn’t win. This means voting Democrat up and down the ballot, volunteering, and encouraging your friends and family to do the same. Come November, we MUST win—our Democracy is at stake! #bidentrumpdebate#presidentialdebate#voteblue
“Hey Everybody, It’s Tennessee State representative Justin J. Pearson here and I, like many of you, watched lady night’s debate. And what I realize and believe all of us need to take away, more than anything else that happened, last night was that there is a pathological liar, a domestic terrorist, and a white supremacist who is running for president of the United States. Who is building his entire campaign on supporting the wealthy billionaires and the rich at the expense of the poor. There’s someone who’s running for office who wants to continue to vilify immigrants and our Latino brothers and sisters and siblings. And we have to stand against that. We have to make sure that the values and the beliefs we hold about democracy continue to ring true. We have to stand up for those who are most vulnerable. For the poor. For the marginalized. For our LGBTQIA+ brothers and sisters and siblings. We have to be the people who continue to hold the banner and the mantle for democracy and of Justice and of Equality. That’s our job. That’s our work. That’s why we’re voting for Democrats. That’s why we’re supporting the Biden Harris ticket. Not because of the names that are there but because of the names we are fighting for well into the future. So let’s keep going. Let’s keep fighting. And let’s not give up our hope to save this democracy. “
As a priest I try not to get publicly involved in partisan politics. But there’s times when that needs to change. It needed to change during the rise of Hitler in Germany and it needs to change now with the rise of trump in the United States. Clergy need to step up and speak out. And this has become particularly important in the aftermath of the debate the other night. When the New York Times, the national paper of record, can come out with such a ridiculous knee jerk reaction by demanding President Biden step aside because of one night’s poor debate performance. While giving a pass to a man who’s a convicted felon, a serial liar, a rapist, a fraudster, and a con man. Is simply not acceptable. For three and a half years, Joe Biden has had our back. He inherited an economy that collapsed in large part because of the trump administration’s imbecilic handling of the Covid Crisis. An economy that was shut down in the face of over 1 million deaths overseen by the trump administration. Because trump is not a leader. He’s a showman. And what he was concerned about then and what he will be concerned about in the future is not the benefit to you and I as ordinary Americans. But what his ratings are. Under trump, we had promises of Infrastructure every week for years.
Nothing developed. He would point to piles of blank papers saying that this was his new Affordable Care Plan that would be better than Obamacare. But it was only blank papers. Joe Biden passed a bipartisan 1.2 trillion dollar Infrastructure Bill. He expanded the Affordable Care Act so that millions more people are insured. And he’s looking at tax reform that benefits those of us who are somewhere in the middle and below, rather than the extreme elite whom trump continues to pander to. But most concernedly, trump hates all of us. He loves only himself. His trope that he could shoot somebody on Fifth Avenue and get away with it and not a single one of his voters would leave him doesn’t say anything about his voters. It says everything about him. And the disdain he has for his voters. That he falsely believes he can say and do anything and the people he has suckered into following him will continue to do so. It’s time to tell him he’s wrong. This is a man who could not recite The Lord’s Prayer if asked. I doubt he could recite The Pledge of Allegiance. And yet he wraps himself in the Bible and in the flag, but he is neither religious nor patriotic. We need to have Joe Biden’s back now. We need Joe Biden to stay in The White House. And hopefully this fever of trumpism will at long last be vanquished. But it is up to us, the voters. Congress had its chance during the second impeachment. They could have barred him from running for office again. They lacked the courage. Now, it’s up to us. Let’s have Joe Biden’s back. Let’s protect America. God bless you all.
JOE BIDEN’S *WHEN YOU GET KNOCKED DOWN YOU GET BACK UP* SPEECH
Raleigh, North Carolina, June 28, 2024
**********************
Let me close with this. I know I’m not a young man. State the obvious. Well. I know.
(Cheers, chants and applause)
Folks, I don’t walk as easily as I used to. I don’t speak as smoothly as I used to. I don’t debate as well as I used to. But I know what I do know. I know how to tell the truth. I know. I know. I know right from wrong. And I know how to do this job. I know how to get things done. And I know like millions of Americans know: when you get knocked down, you get back up.
The choice in this election is simple. Donald Trump will destroy Democracy and I will defend it.
(Cheers, chants and applause)
I know what it took to take our economy from the depths of the Pandemic to where it is today: THE STRONGEST ECONOMY IN THE WORLD. I know what it’ll take to bring this economy to everybody. I know what it’ll take to rally the world, to stand up against Putin and defend Freedom and not yield to him. And I know what it’ll take to keep the world safe in the years ahead.
Folks, I give you my word as a Biden, I would not be running again if I didn’t believe with all my heart and soul, I can do this job. Because quite frankly: THE STAKES ARE TOO HIGH! The stakes are too high.
(Cheers, chants and applause)
Donald Trump. Donald Trump is a genuine threat to this nation. He’s a threat to our freedom. He’s a threat to our democracy. He’s literally a threat to everything America stands for.
Look. He doesn’t understand what I think all of you do: AMERICA IS THE FINEST AND MOST UNIQUE NATION IN THE WORLD. We’re the only nation in the world, and I mean this sincerely, it’s a fact statement and not a hyperbolic statement, it’s fact: We’re the only nation in the world build on an idea. All the other nations build on ethnicity, geography, and other religion. But we’re build on an idea: That we’re all created equal. And deserve to be treated equally throughout our lives. We’ve never fully lived up. But I’ll be damned in the year 2024, just 2 years, (cheers) just 2 years before the 250th anniversary of our Declaration of Independence, that I’ll let Donald Trump walk away from it.
(Cheers, chants and applause)
I give you my word. I give you my word as a Biden, we’re still a nation, I believe we’re still a nation that believes in honesty and decency and treating people with respect. I still believe we’re a nation that gives everyone a fair shot. And leaves nobody behind. We’re still a nation that gives hate no safe harbor. And we’re still the beacon of the world.
We can never give up what makes America AMERICA. Donald Trump is motivated by revenge and retribution. Well, revenge and retribution never built a damned thing.
You and I, we Americans, are a nation of hope, optimism, and possibility. That what always built America. That’s what will continue to build America today. The choice in this election is simple, Donald Trump will destroy our democracy. I will defend it.
Now, folks: ARE YOU WITH ME?
Donald Trump’s the first president I’ve heard of who stood up there running for president having been one for one term saying, “America is a failing nation.” Where the hell does he think he is? No, I’m serious. A failing? I don’t know a president that wouldn’t trade places with America in a heart beat. He’s dead wrong.
America’s not a losing nation. America’s WINNING! As I stand here today, I can honestly say I’ve never been more optimistic about America’s future in my whole career. We just have to remember who we are. We’re the UNITED STATES OF AMERICA.
(Cheers, chants and applause)
There is nothing, NOTHING, beyond our capacity, NOTHING, when we act together.
(Cheers, chants USA and applause)
YOU GOT IT.
May God bless you all and may God protect our troops.
ONCE MORE INTO THE BREACH From HENRY V, Act III, Scene 1, Lines 1-6 By William Shakespeare
King Henry:
Once more unto the breach, dear friends, once more; Or close the wall up with our English dead. In peace there’s nothing so becomes a man As modest stillness and humility; But when the blast of war blows in our ears, Then imitate the action of the tiger. . . .
