One can commiserate with the plight of a young MSM talking head challenged with news of indictment of her Senator father for bribery, and still notice the MSM/political Party revolving door that has undermined public trust in a Free Press.

Corruption hurts everyone:  Even those who so successfully participate.

The discussion about inflation and the US debt by Mr. Brat was relevant and FACTual as far as it went.  One notices as he used as players in causing inflation being the public and the Feds, he tip-toed around any mention of decadent and obscene profiteering by corporations.  This is odd in an honest conversation.  He did use the phrase “predatory capitalism” without ascribing it to the main player….Hmmm……slick…..–

Dave Brat on House Republicans and Government Funding Deadline

Former Representative Dave Brat (R-VA) talked about House Republicans‘ stalemate over the federal budget and the September 30 deadline to fund the government to avoid a shutdown. He also discussed the state of the Republican Party.

–end of c-span info—

One was happy to hear Mr. Brat find value if te RFK, Jr. Presidential campaign.  RFK, Jr. perhaps has the trust of voters in an expansive number as did Bernie Sanders.  

RDK, Jr. doesn’t find favor with mainstream political Parties, however and so has been censored by MSM.

:Political Parties have no honest role in the general electoral process.  Due to the corruption of the Supreme Court decision called Citizens United, political Parties dictate who the political choices appear upon ballots.  (Refer back to the first paragraph at the top).  And we also acknowledge www.ALEC.org.****

As one who would be perfectly contented to retain the Senate if they adhered to Oaths of Office more than to Citizens United campaign donations, one is interested in a topic raised as to the reason we maintain the US Senate——–

 This is a reminder of how much we don’t know.  This brings one around to Howie Hawkins, who continues to impress with original thought.  We also could acknowledge Hawkins often speaks to censored information.
One such topic about which one would never have even considered, is whether the USA needs The Senate.  Apparently The Senate is little other than expensive window dressing, promoting hierarchical interests, and too often placed in positions of power by big-money via Citizens United.  But the public gets to fund this curiosity of pompous supremacy.  Who knew?
The Democratic Branch of the Republican/Democratic Duopoly are especially functional in voter suppression—–https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=BNbdkuU1edw          —#GreenSocialist Notes #76
Howie Hawkins brings up the concept of whether the USA needs the Senate.  Apparently according to some people, the Senate isn’t necessary.  This brings up the blockage from the Senate of many bills that would benefit We The People.  Combined with Citizens United that promotes big-money interest choice of Senators, in which laws are passed that benefit big-money interest rather than We The People, and that We The People support economically, the members of the Senate, this seems a good topic for discussion.
The US Constitution doesn’t seem to sanction elections run by political Parties, and to permit control of political debates by political Parties seems equally corrupt.   https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=xQ7kn2-GEmM       —

Ross Perot in 1992 on NAFTA and the “Giant Sucking Sound”

Centralization is the lifeblood of the R&D duopoly.  It’s the way to enforce capitalism onto workers in 2022.———————–We can do better———-

That “we are a 2-Party system” is a fabrication of the Republican/Democratic duopoly and spread by MSM.  In FACT the majority of voters aren’t either registered Democratic or Republican.  The censorship about this info must be envied by bureaucrats of the Former USSR and their simplistic style of 1-Party elections.  

Regardless of which character sits in the Oval Office, We The People have work to do to maintain principles of our democratic (small d) Constitutional republic.  Several items to challenge—*We need the integrity of ranked-choice voting so voters won’t feel compelled to “hold your nose and vote”*Censored debates must be stopped.  The Democratic/Republican duopoly pretends to legitimate debates in what is nothing other than another campaign show.  Independent debates run by uninterested sponsors such as The League of Women Voters, must be restored.  (Access www.debates.org to understand the extent of duopoly control).  The so-called Debate Commission is a corporation to promote the Democratic corporation and Republican corporation, not to inform We The People*Challenge and stop gerrymandering that is a trick especially of the Republican branch of the duopoly.*Stop voter suppression by political Parties, and especially confront and stop Party suppression, which is the over-arching approach to voter suppression.  Party suppression seems to have been the responsibility of the Democratic corporation*Promote by law ranked-choice voting, so we won’t be told again, by D&R duopoly, to “hold your nose and vote”
If these issues are handled, our next elections can be honorable.
