Positive energy in a sense needs to be earned, while hate is more like an instinct. One must be cultivate and nurtured, the other rears its head when things go sideways, and they always do. In essence, it's always easier to destroy than create, but products of creativity inspire and make life worth living. How do we get a smart guy like Ben Shapiro that he's an agent of destruction?

Joaquin Castro as NSA, and his twin as governor of Texas? Greg Abbutthead is cooked. Texas may be in play. It's still a longshot, but one more death attributed to razor wire will cement truck the death knell of the RethugliKKKlan party in Texas for a generation. DeSatan is currently doing everything that he can to give Democrats Rick Scott's Senate seat, but now seems to want to help Democrats win the Governor's Mansion as well. RethugliKKKlans are actually trying to push Casey DeSantis as the next governor. They want to keep Ronnie relevant by having him go from the governor of Floridumb to the First Gentleman of Floridumb. Is that really the best they've got?

      @walalopez6735 As Secretary, he was one of the principal movers of Biden's infrastructure policies, as those policies would enable the expansion of the American transportation network, which helped make America an energy independent nation. He is able to talk intelligently across the aisle, and because of that, there were numerous Republicans that engaged with President Biden's infrastructure plans. This also helps decrease the carbon footprint that we as a species leave behind us. We are able to negotiate across the board around the globe to reduce our reliance on the vagaries and dominions of other nations because of Secretary Buttigieg.

      I cannot get over this VP process. Republicans keep bringing up DEI, all while Dems can’t pick the best person for the job, because they’re too diverse.
      Let’s be clear: polls said that Democrat voters favorite VP candidates were Gretchen Whitmer and Pete (22%). Whitmer is a popular governor of a swing state with no Palestine-baggage - and pretty much everyone can agree that Pete is probably the Democrats’ most effective communicator. But neither be seriously considered, because of sad and obvious reasons. All while Fox News goes on about how hard it is to be a straight white dude in politics.

What Mr. Buttigieg just said about the de-facto most powerful human on the planet voluntarily setting aside that power really struck me. Watching the live stream of President Biden speaking on supreme court reform, I noticed I liked him so much more and didn't know the reason. This interview made me realize why.

He sees the potential.... the positives hidden among the negatives and organizes to bring those positives to the to surface to shine. I watched down town change for the better and become a place women and families felt safe comfortable going to. Watched new businesses open and people take pride in down town again like they did when I was a child and there were plenty of businesses, shopping and restaurants. Really hope Kamala has a place of importance for Pete in her administration. He is highly intelligent, creative and great at speaking and finding solutions..
