On Morning Joe this am, a very much NOT "low energy" Biden made a telling point. If there were a 'red wave' coming, why is Trump running so hard away from what he's for? Trump's wholly incredible distancing himself from Project 2025 being the current example.

Those taken aback by his evident frustration with "elites" who "know so much more!" should consider whether or not the Democratic base feels just as he does. It very much looks like it does.

There are how many democrats? And 9 spoke out to have Biden consider stepping down. Why not talk about the hundreds that are for him and the voters like me who voted for him to be the nominee!? Trump has many signs of dementia and the republicans are running him. Let’s vote in November!!

Dear President Biden and other NATO Leaders,

It is unconscionable that the war criminal, Putin, has been allowed to maim and kill Ukrainian children, men and women at will for over two years now. Please, it is high time to support and implement a motion to keep the skies over Ukraine clear of Russian planes and missiles.

It is immoral for us, the members of NATO, to handcuff ourselves and stand by in the face of this brutality. We have the power to ensure security for Ukraine and, by extension, for Europe and the world. Let's exercise it.

The current celebration of 75 years of NATO's existence will ring hollow if we fail to act in the face of this untrammeled savagery.

Thank you.

We are all so hunkered down in our bunker silo of confirmation bias that it hard to see and feel the wide world out there. Biden has been on a whirlwind running the country and campaigning to fit the narrative of the media but it is sadly never enough. Social media is filled with glee over Great Britain and France and thinking it translates. Thank you David for bringing that into perspective for me I just want one piece of good news to stick.

I refuse to be afraid. It confuses my thinking and delivers me to the enemy . I will stick with my Being, where my better angels live and keep my ego fear in tact.
