  • We have to stop feeding into the narratives of these false dichotomies. We cannot choose between two evils but rather make a new alternative and work on the ground with all our power to create that alternative," she told RFE/RL. “But either way, the fight for democracy and fair and democratic elections will always be…a very basic principle that everyone needs to be able to stand by.”

    Absolutely. 100% this. For Georgia, for Russia, for the US, for the rest of the West, for the rest of the world.

    The Dubya war on terror “you’re either with the establishment ruling party unquestioningly or you’re with the establishment opposition party unquestioningly” or “you either love NATO or approve of Putin’s atrocities” bullshit has to end.






  • it’s not like it’s only her or confined to Democrats.

    True. She just happens to be the very best at it, bar none.

    She’s less awful than most Republicans and a few of the Democrats in Washington in general, but when it comes to legal corruption, nobody’s as prolific and skilled as Pelosi. No Democrats, no Republicans.

    That’s how she was elevated to leadership over 20 years ago without seniority and with no legislative accomplishments to speak of: nobody’s as good at corralling and representing the owner donors as her.
