Speculation Begins On Potential Democratic Presidential Contenders

Ronald 3 Comments

It is nine months until the Midterm Elections of 2026 for Congress, and state and local government.

But already, speculation has begun on who might run for the Democratic Presidential nomination in 2028, and the list is long, and not just the usual speculated candidates.

Among those assumed to be likely to run are, in no special order:

Former Vice President Kamala Harris
California Governor Gavin Newsom
New York Congresswoman Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez
Former Secretary of Transportation Pete Buttigieg
Pennsylvania Governor Josh Shapiro
Illinois Governor JB Pritzker
Michigan Governor Gretchen Whitmer

But beyond these much speculated potential candidates, there is a much longer list of others, in no special order:

Connecticut Senator Chris Murphy
Maryland Governor Wes Moore
Former Chicago Mayor and Ambassador to Japan Rahm Emanuel
California Congressman Ro Khanna
New Jersey Senator Cory Booker
Kentucky Governor Andy Beshear
Georgia Senator Jon Ossoff
Maryland Congressman Jamie Raskin
Arizona Senator Ruben Gallego
Billionaire Entrepreneur Mark Cuban
Arizona Senator Mark Kelly
Michigan Senator Elissa Slotkin
Hawaii Governor Josh Green
Georgia Senator Raphael Warnock
Maryland Senator Chris Van Hollen
Comedian and Political Commentator Jon Stewart
Colorado Governor Jared Polis
California Senator Adam Schiff

So the total potential list is at least 25 candidates, and who knows, if someone not on this list joins the fray!

There are 8 Governors on the list; 9 US Senators; 3 House members; two former Mayors and Cabinet members or Ambassadors; two outside government leaders; and former Vice President Kamala Harris.

And the list is extremely diverse in nature, including:

4 Women
6 White Male Christian
2 Latinos
4 African Americans
1 Hindu
11 Jews
2 Gays
2 Outside of Government

The Proposed Independence Arch In DC A Major Controversy!

Ronald 31 Comments

Donald Trump has created massive controversy with his White House Ballroom, which would dwarf the White House, and has already led to the destruction of the East Wing of the White House and the White House Rose Garden.

His proposed Independence Arch to celebrate the 250th Anniversary of the Declaration of Independence present many problems.

Trump wants a 250 foot Arch, which would represent a 16-20 story building, would dwarf the White House itself, and is meant to be an American version of the Paris, France L’Arc de Triomphe, which stands at 164 feet. Other equivalent monuments are in Mexico City at 220 feet, and in the capital of North Korea at 197 feet, so the purpose is to create the greatest height monument in the world to satisfy Trump’s massive ego and insecurity.

It would be situated across the Potomac River from the Lincoln Memorial, but would pose a hazard to air travel at Ronald Reagan Washington National Airport in the District of Columbia.

The structure of the proposed Arch would be 165 feet tall and 165 feet wide, with a 25 foot pedestal and a massive 60 foot gilt bronze Lady Liberty sculpture on top.

The arch would be about half the size of the Washington Monument, which is 555 feet tall and more than double the 99 foot tall Lincoln Memorial. The White House is 60 feet tall, so would be far less impressive by comparison. Iconic views of Arlington National Cemetery would be lost.

Environmental and historic preservation factors, along with Arlington National Cemetery and the Federal Aviation Administration, are part of the review process, although Trump has appointed members of key commissions that have to consider and decide on the project moving forward.

Kentucky Becomes A “Wild Card” In Opposition To Donald Trump

Ronald Leave a comment

Who would think that the state of Kentucky, the birthplace of Abraham Lincoln, would become a “Wild Card” in opposition to Donald Trump’s agenda in various ways?

This is the state of Senator Rand Paul, a well known libertarian, who has expressed strong disagreement with Donald Trump’s agenda in a number of ways.

It is the state of Congressman Thomas Massie, who has become a thorn in the side of Trump on a number of issues, most notably on exposing the Jeffrey Epstein scandal.

It is the state of former Senate Majority Leader Mitch McConnell, who has done such damage in so many ways, but now in his last years in the Senate, has become an open critic of Trump on a number of matters.

And it is the state of Democratic Governor Andy Beshear, who has managed to keep the Governorship for two terms, and has shown courage and principle in fighting the dominant Republican Party in his state.

Texas Senate Primary On March 3 A Crucial Moment For Both Political Parties

Ronald 8 Comments

What may be the most crucial Senate race of all in 2026 is the Texas race, where Republican Senator John Cornyn is being seriously challenged by Texas Attorney General Ken Paxton and African American Congressman Wesley Hunt; and where Democratic African American Congresswoman Jasmine Crockett is being challenged by Texas State Representative James Talarico, with the upcoming primary to be on March 3, less than a month from today, and if a runoff is needed, on May 26.

Cornyn has been in the Senate since 2002, and is now 74 years old, and has held leadership positions in the Senate, including Senate Republican Whip from 2013-2019. Not considered “Conservative Enough”, he is facing a tough intraparty battle with Ken Paxton, embattled and hardline MAGA conservative often praised by President Donald Trump, although so far, Trump has remained neutral in this intraparty battle.

Paxton has been shown to be corrupt in his dealings and rhetoric, and was impeached by the Texas House Republicans, although found not guilty by the Texas Senate Republicans. He is considered highly corrupt and outrageous in utterances, and also was revealed to be cheating on his wife, who now has filed for divorce.

Congressman Wesley Hunt, 20 years younger than Paxton, and thirty years younger than Cornyn, is a “wild card” in the primary race. A military veteran who graduated from West Point (the US Military Academy), and remained in the military for eight years, he would represent a modernization of the Republican Party in Texas, and could help decide whether Cornyn or Paxton win the nomination, and with an outside chance with three candidates, that he could pull off an upset. If no candidate gains a majority in the primary, there will be a runoff.

A major “revolution” in Texas Republican politics would be if, somehow, Hunt could win over both Cornyn and Paxton, and even more so, if he faced Jasmine Crockett, making for two young African American politicians with vastly different viewpoints as the finalists in the Senate race. However, if Texas State Representative James Talarico, who is only 36, was to run against Hunt, that would also be a major “revolution” in Texas politics.

The “youth” movement would be served by Hunt and Crockett, both born in 1981, and Talarico, born in 1989, rather than the old, stodgy leadership of Cornyn, or the corrupt leadership of Paxton.

The thought at the moment is that if Paxton wins the Republican nomination, it would make it easier for Crockett or Talarico to win the Senate seat, while if Cornyn won the nomination, he would have an edge over either of them.

But Talarico has done well in public opinion polls, and could be the most exciting Senate candidate of the 2026 Senate cycle, if he can triumph over Crockett.

If either Crockett or Talarico can win the Senate race, it would be a sign of a likely takeover of the Senate majority by the Democratic party.

Blatant Racism And Egomaniacal Behavior Of Donald Trump Worsening Exponentially

Ronald 46 Comments

Donald Trump’s racism and egomaniacal behavior is worsening exponentially, an alarming development.

Trump puts an image of Barack and Michelle Obama as apes on Truth Social, and then blames it on an aide, although it was posted in the middle of the night, when Trump goes bonkers on multiple postings on his website.

His egomaniacal behavior moves beyond destroying the Kennedy Center and the White House Rose Garden, and eliminating the East Wing of the White House as he plans a gigantic ballroom that will be much larger than the remaining historic building.

Now, he wants the Dulles International Airport in Virginia renamed after him, at a time when in Florida, there is a move to name the Palm Beach International Airport after him, as well.

Trump also wants the landmark Penn Station in New York City named after him, and is refusing to allow the building of the Hudson River Tunnel project infrastructure to deal with transportation improvements in the ultra busy New York-New Jersey metropolitan area unless he gains what he demands.

His worse traits are showing through more than before, and he is a growing threat as he rapidly declines, but with control over the nuclear codes, that if misused, could lead to nuclear devastation with his eccentric madness traits.

Persistent Detention Of Children By ICE A Growing Outrage In Public Opinion Polls!

Ronald 32 Comments

Public Opinion is rapidly turning against Immigration and Customs Enforcement (ICE), after the outragous murders of Rene Good and Alex Pretti in Minneapolis, but ever more by the persistent detention of children who are often used as pawns in the arrest of their parents, most of whom are not engaged in criminal activities.

The effect on children is so traumatizing, and will last a lifetime, and is interfering with and preventing education, most particularly in Minneapolis, but also elsewhere.

This includes the trauma visited upon educators who are witness to the abuses visited on their students on a daily basis, who are cowering in fear of being detained, and in many cases, are staying home and being denied a normal education.

This intolerable situation cannot continue much longer, without a major revolt by Americans, way beyond the demonstrations going on regularly around the nation.

ICE needs to have its budget cut dramatically, with Democrats doing whatever has to be done to affect change.

The treatment of children in particular, but really, of all those pursued and detained, a vast majority not criminal elements, must be made to improve dramatically.

The Decline Of Honest Journalism: Washington Post, CBS, And Potential Threat To CNN!

Ronald 6 Comments

American Democracy is in dire danger, with the decline of honest journalism, and with major news sources compromised.

The Washington Post, owned by Amazon tech entreneur Jeff Bezos, has just cut one third of its staff, including such departments as sports, local news, international news, and previously moving opinion columns toward a right wing slant. This was the newspaper which exposed the Watergate Scandal under President Richard Nixon, and has won the second most Pulitzer Prizes in Journalism, only behind the New York Times.

CBS News has become a disaster under Bari Weiss, no longer a beacon of decent, honest journalism, and if Walter Cronkite and Edward R. Murrow were still alive, they would be in shock, as retired 94 year old Dan Rather, most assuredly, is now.

CNN is in danger of being taken over by the same Billionaire Larry Ellison family that now controls CBS News, and could lead to the destruction of the original, award winning cable news channel, created in 1980 by Ted Turner.

With the decline of so many reliable news sources, and Donald Trump interfering with freedom of the press, the future looks gloomy for upholding truth and facts, and maintaining the Constitution and the rule of law in the future!

Glorification Of Donald Trump Must Be Resisted Now, And Reversed After He Leaves Office!

Ronald 7 Comments

The destruction of the Rose Garden at the White House.

The elimination of the East Wing of the White House, and the plan for a White House Ballroom (90,000 Square Feet addition) larger than the remainder of the White House (55,000 Square Feet).

The renaming of the Kennedy Center as the Trump-Kennedy Center, and plans to shut it down for renovations for two years.

The plans for the creation of a Triumphal 250 foot high Arch, which would dwarf the Lincoln Memorial (100 feet) and the White House (70 feet), and likely be named after Donald Trump.

These radical changes are being perpetrated by a power hungry, aggrandizing President, who is out to destroy for his own personal ego.

The damage already done must be reversed after Donald Trump leaves office, leading to restoration of the White House to the historical building that existed before 2025, and the Kennedy Center to its original status.

Legal action must be taken against the building of a massive Arch, which is just to glorify Trump, but would destroy the traditional Washington DC that Americans know and love!

Trump’s Desire To “Nationalize” Elections Means Push To Fix And Control Election Results: An Alarm Bell Danger To American Democracy!

Ronald 23 Comments

“Free and Fair Elections” are the lifeblood of American democracy, and of any democracy around the world.

Without such processes, it means authoritarian controls and dictates the lives of 340 million Americans.

Elections have always been held, conducted, and results counted, by state and local governments, never by the federal government.

But now, Donald Trump is calling for “nationalizing” elections, focusing on 15 states, those that are seen as “Swing” states, and also counties, that have produced results that are unfavorable to Donald Trump and his policies and beliefs.

Trump has already claimed “voter fraud”, without any evidence, that although he lost the state of Minnesota in three national elections, that actually, he won that state, and the results showing his loss were “fixed”, when that is exactly what he wishes to do in that “Blue” state and others.

Clearly, Trump is terrified that if the Democrats gain control of either or both chambers of Congress in the Midterm 2026 Elections, they will pursue investigations and subpoenas into his administration’s actions, and would likely move to impeach him and many of his Cabinet Officers for malfeasance.

Trump is clearly desperate to eliminate his rivals in the Democratic Party, and to defeat the small number of Republicans who have dared to challenge him.

This is a threat that has been perceived for a long time, and now, with the seizure illegally by FBI agents of election records in Fulton County, Georgia, and the involvement of the Director of National Security Tulsi Gabbard in the action, is extremely alarming, and totally outside of her area of responsibility.

It is clear that Donald Trump has no scruples, and will do everything illegally to control the election results for 2026 and 2028, until and when he is stopped dead in his tracks by legal actions of his critics.

This is an alarming threat to the upcoming elections and the rule of law!
