Inspired by CellyBlue: We must win!
Black Women Are the Backbone of the Party and Women's And Minorities' Programs Must be at the Center
Please, oh please listen to a real inspiration of mine, CellyBlue — I do know this!
Here is a beautiful and powerful rebuke to public internecine Democratic inhouse civil-war with a plea to victory for The People:
The video is less than eight minutes in length and it shows Celly Blue to be a person with deep knowledge of the Elitist Project 2025 that threatens to put on steroids a Presidency that the Supreme Court has already in a wide-reaching opinion place in so many ways beyond the reach of the law, even for criminal conduct.
Celly Blue is a deeply insightful political commentator that we should all listen to carefully, the more so as she speaks with knowledge and passion of the Backbone of the Freedom movement, the Democratic Party: The Black Woman.
Make no mistake. The reason we are not at the close of a second Trump Administration, is because of the voice and vote of the Black Woman.
The Far-Right — which has taken over the Republicans — has defied in Alabama a ruling from even the far-right supermajority of the Supreme Court against Alabama’s gerrymandering.
Alabama’s far-right is so afraid of the voice of the Black populace, especially Black women, that the Alabama GOP legislature and governor defied the Supreme Court to ratify the same gerrymandered map that the Supreme Court had just rejected!
So, you have to ask yourself, what is the American, neo-fascist, White-Nation right-wing afraid of?!
What they are afraid of is the informed and impassioned voter.
Listen, please do listen to Celly Blue in her 8-minute video, that I linked above.
I love Celly Blue’s depth of knowledge that is fuel for her passion for what is right.
The Democratic Party has failed us by a STATE OF PANIC in the face of an existential threat to Democracy from the Gross-ORANGE-Peel (GOP) and their neo-fascist leader.
Congressman Glenn Ivey makes clear that the Congressional Black Caucus is solidly behind a Joe-Biden re-election.
We need to go further.
Despite inner-party fighting, it is the GOP that now is not the normal party of the people but whose ideology has been taken over by white-nationalists, and we must get behind election of:
(1) Joe Biden/Kamala Harris Re-Election;
(2) Democratic House with Kareem Jeffries as House Speaker;
(3) Democratic Senate with Chuck Schumer as majority leader;
(4) Democratic Governors (Andy Beshear, KY, and Laura Kelly (KS) are BLUE Governors in RED States);
(5) Democratic State Houses throughout the country;
(6) Democratic State Senates throughout the Country;
(7) Democratic state Judicial candidates;
(8) Democratic County Commissioners;
(9) Democratic Mayors;
(10) Democratic City Elders;
(11) Democratic school boards.
The GOP got to the point they are through four, almost five decades of working the democratic process from the ground up.
Why do we have a supermajority of ideological right-wingers on the Supreme Court?
By working tirelessly in all elections from the city, the county, the state, and all Federal offices, the GOP got to the point of a Senate Majority with Mitch McConnell as Majority Leader.
Mitch McConnell forced through the Senate the Justices that now throws the Supreme Court in severe judicial imbalance.
It is one thing for leaders in the backroom to have discussions with Joe Biden for course change or course-correction.
It is totally another for Congressmen to panic in public and feed our Age's media frenzy.
There is one good thing about media frenzy.
Though the Media obsesses over the current fury, like sharks looking for blood and movement in the seas, the Media have a short attention span.
A new shiny red thing can catch the Media’s eye and they swarm like sharks around it and chew it to pieces and they drop the Biden-Debate for the shiny new red thing.
I am a naked Machiavellian: We know the Media are voracious. Democrats can find red meat to throw to the press to change the narrative of the Media.
The Democrats need to throw their own shiny red things in the eyes of the Media.
Media are like sharks looking for blood and movement in the seas so they can lunge and open their looming jaws.
The bleeding, moving things in the ocean constantly change.
The past two weeks have been all about Biden and the debate performance.
Hurricane Beryl, a catastrophic category five hurricane at the start, reduced to a category one, barreled through Texas causing floods, tornadoes and destruction in its wake.
But the Press is still concentrated on the debate performance. So, Beryl was not a big enough prey bleeding in the water.
What about women and women's health care?
It seems that the real potential for blood and movement in the ocean eddies to attract the Shark-CNN lies with the insane things the GOP has done to damage women's health care.
In the South Carolina State Senate, three Republican women -- Sandy Senn, Katrina Shealy and Penry Gustafson -- stood against the MEN who had passed severe anti-abortion legislation that put girls and women in imminent danger -- anti-abortion with no exception for the 9-year-old victim of incestual rape; no exceptions for a woman's health, to the point of oppressive law that induces medical malpractice causing the girl's or woman's death or permanent and severe injury, including infertility.
South Carolina DEFEATED these brave three woman State Senators: Sandy Senn, Katrina Shealy and Penry Gustafson. Now, the State GOP has NO WOMEN. All are now in lock-step with Fundamentalist-Cult misogyny.
More than half of our population are girls and women and the woman, and Biden's issues are woman's issues.
A man at all worth his salt loves all the girls and women in his life, his Mom, his Sisters, his Aunts, his nieces, his Wife or Girlfriend, his Daughters, his Granddaughters, Women who are dear and good friends in his life.
So any worthy man prospers when women around him are happy, healthy, strong, and assertive.
(I have been in love with one woman for 53-years and married 51 to her. Nancy is "assertive", believe you me. And I am very happy and want Nancy's power, strength and voice.)
The Honorable Hakeem Jeffries, Future Speaker of the House, stood behind Biden irrespective of the debate and reasserted his support yesterday.
The Honorable Glenn Ivey speaks for the Congressional Black Congress.
You are among Black Women I cherish who take a stance.
Black women are THE STRENGTH of the Democratic Party.
Black women are the BACKBONE of our Democracy.
I wavered -- because I have faith in Biden's strength of character and accomplishment, and the debate -- viewed by millions -- was the place for him to show his strength. Make no mistake, Biden is a lawyer, and we lawyers at a trial don't get the break -- "Oh, well, my Defense, flubbed, and that is what the jury saw. But outside of the trial, in press conferences the JURY DOES NOT WATCH, he shines . . ." NO, that does NOT cut it for a lawyer and I refuse to cut Biden slack on that. Absolutely refuse.
For his own good.
Biden from now on and constantly has to look like he is on steroids at every public appearance.
Biden now has to come out as "Fighting Joe," the "Happy Warrior Joe!"
Biden has your and my loyalty -- after my own wavering.
But now we need Biden's loyalty.
You and I have a right that Biden show up as the Happy Warrior.
Biden can talk quite passionately and simply to the People, so people understand what is at stake for:
(1) The health and very lives of girls and women;
(2) Legislation, including voting rights, in the Spirit not only of the late John Lewis and, never overlook, the late Elijah Cummings;
(3) DEFEATING the right-wing, ideological Project-2025 programs to put a Presidency on steroids immunized against any criminal responsibility;
(4) The VOICE of the worker, the voter, where ELITE, closed organizations such as the Heritage Foundation threaten an unwanted "Second Revolution" that would be "bloodless" only if "the left lets it!" -- Kevin Roberts. Echo this with images of January 6th and violence (market shootings, police violence) with African-American and Latino -- and Jewish -- victims. Show synagogues and Jewish cemeteries desecrated by racist violence and DENOUNCE Trump's BLOOD rhetoric -- the immigrants "poison our blood."
Russia just bombed a Children's Hospital in Kyiv.
Biden and the Democrats should take to the microphone, show these images, and condemn and damn Biden and Michael Johnson for strengthening Vladimir Putin, the War Criminal who kills children.
In my view this should be a major feature of images and fiery rhetoric of Biden and Democrats to trounce Putin-war-criminal-Supporters Trump and the GOP, including Michael Johnson.
Put THEM on the defensive.
The Democratic Advocacy will have to be in vivid color and pictures, in steamed rhetoric against the tyrannical threat from the cultist-Right, and be so aggressive and personal against Trump's neo-fascist and racist BLOOD rhetoric -- where Trump proclaims immigrants "POISON OUR BLOOD" -- that the other side screams in the defensive.
We are not in stage where the Democrats have any choice other than a full-court press from now until the Day of Election.
After the election, Biden will have plenty of time to rest.
From today, within the bounds of the law, we must win BY ALL MEANS NECESSARY!
Thanks! Brilliant!
I liked that cartoon very much when I was learning a little about Wittgenstein. I added that idea to my understanding of Gödel’s Incompleteness Theorem and other bits of thinking to question what I think I know.
Also, I had to look up the word pellucid so thank you.
All I did was put out a small morsel of thought to your hungry mind.
Let’s beat Trump. ♐️♐️♊️
