It is time to thank earlg and a few others...

Back when I tried to start raising $ for Democratic politicians I used the name Democratic Underground without asking for permission. But then for several years I couldn't raise a total of $100 between them all. DU management didn't complain or take me to court.  The owners and those that run the DU over the years left me alone. I have always followed the rule on neutrality between Democratic candidates. That is the only rule I remember ever being discussed.

This morning the DU community crossed the over FOUR MILLION DOLLARS raised threshold. I never expected our fundraising to be so successful. I could not have done the current mid-term because my dementia is advancing. I asked for volunteers. Scipan and berniesandersmittens volunteered. Give them a hand!!!

Over the years our community has received several thank you letters. Bernie, the DNC, Biden/Harris. Senator Ossoff. And more. We earned them.

When I bumped into second gentleman Doug Emhoff, I mentioned the DU. He knew of us because of the fundraising. Photo below.


Here is the current list of those we are raising $ for: https://www.democraticunderground.com/100218885532

The below screen grab for 3.5 million raised does not include over a half million $ in closed accounts. That is why I now leave old links listed as active.

Steve looks like a demented pig. Showing off once again.

So, Obama didn't honor basketball, football, basketball, tennis, basketball, and other sports athletes during the Libyan and Syrian civil wars he fomented?

As for LIEden, Jill probably gave his schedule minders a, no bikini competition events and a no girls beauty pageant events directive.

Imagine if Biden or Obama took a trip to hand out a

private golf trophy in the middle of an escalating war either had started.
That is all.

3. Every time Obama golfed, they criticized him.
Republicans are deeply unserious people.

Put the bottle down ASAP you idiot

French Police Looking at Sabotage As Possible Cause for Friday's Normandy Train Derailment

https://hotair.com/tree-hugging-sister/2026/09/13/french-police-looking-at-sabotage-as-possible-cause-for-fridays-normandy-train-derailment-n3818951

The commuter trains that run between the Normandy cities of Rouen and Caen - every weekday there are 10 of these scheduled, with six on weekends - are quite a popular transport mode and considered one of Normandy's 'principal rail corridors.' The 186 passengers on Friday's evening trip were no doubt just settled in for the familiar and comfortable commute home when the unthinkable happened.

I can't imagine the sheer terror as a few wild jolts suddenly turned into shattered windows, stones from the track itself rocketing inside, and, in one car, literally the world turning upside down as it rolled off the track onto its side.
...
The impact that caused the derailment was so violent that it knocked four cars off the tracks, dumped another on its side, and literally spun the locomotive around to face the opposite direction.
...
What was so puzzling to railroad officials on the scene was that another commuter train had just come through on that track a little over an hour before with no issues. Had driver caused this?

Well, he tested negative for drugs.

The answer appeared to lie on the tracks in what classic European understatement sounds like not much of anything - a 'fragment of rail found on the track' said the national French channel.

..A fragment of rail was found on the track, with the possibility of a malicious act being treated as the main line of inquiry as a result, the source said.

Curiouser and curiouser

I wonder if TDS can be terminal.

Based on DU, probably not.
