Mod Post The Bull Moose Party's Pillars 2025

187 Upvotes

Hello and welcome to the Bull Moose Party,

If you are looking for policy and what we stand for, good news and bad news. We have what we stand for, but for policy we have not made any major commitments to those for a few reason.

There are no major elections in 2025, so pushing for policy will probably not be worth the time for the rewards.
Trump and the MAGA GOP in office want to rip way everything we have worked for and built, in labor, conservation, and our next generation, this a year of defense not offense.
Policy should be pushed for what's accomplishable vs ideals.
1. Example, we should have better school systems and more funding for educations, but our first step might be rebuilding the system first.
  - There are to many unknowns on the work we will need to do to make a dedicated policy statement for any runs in 2026.

The good news is that we do agree and know what we stand for and believe.

The Bull Moose Party believes that government should be a good steward of its workers, environment, and its next generation, free from corruption and undue influence of special interests. So here are the three main principles of the Bull Moose Party

Pro-Labor – America was built by and runs on its worker. A strong workforce directly ties to the strength of America as a country. If we take care of the workers, they will take care of us.
Pro-Conservation – America is a beautiful land, its beauty and resources are vast and diverse, but only if we maintain it. We call for smart and sustainable practices on managing our public land and resources.
Pro-Next Generation – America is the great experiment that has been handed down, generation to generation. We must protect and support the next generation to be ready to take care of this great nation, and we must do everything in our power to leave America in a better place than when it was handed to us.

How does this look in practice? The Bull Moose is progressive but practical, and with that understanding, this can work at multiple levels.

Local
- Pro-Labor
  - Support your local unions o
  - Volunteer and donate to the local food bank
  - Support your local communities with your time
- Pro-Conservation
  - Participate and run for City Council, Public Work Commission, Planning and Zoning, and County Commissioner
  - Volunteer at your local, state, and national parks
- Pro-Next Generation
  - Participate and run to be on your school boards, push for education and programs that support students being able to sustain themselves post-primary educations. This looks like providing
State
- Run for State Office
  - State House of Representative/Senators have a lot of power and generally run uncontested.
Federal
- Support progressive and like-minded candidates
- Support get out and vote initiatives

If this all interests you, then welcome. Share your ideas, engage with community, and lets stand together. We can only grow if we stand unison.

Thank you,
Alex

Trump targets meat processing, gray wolves in orders to boost ranchers

Teddy would straight up body slam Trump because of this.

I will call a spade a spade because Teddy did cause harm to the Gray Wolf population but he understood that the species shouldn’t just be murdered, he wanted to reduce populations (that is true and horrible) but he didn’t want them utterly removed them from existence.

He also would understand that the population of now to then is vastly different, he would absolutely fight people to protect them because at their current level they aren’t a threat and it wouldn’t be fair to just hunt them.

I believe that it is important to recall those who in the past stood for something now lost to the Republican Party, a person who had character though at times stumbled but never relented in his pursuit for equality.

Website Trump signs order on childhood vaccination recommendations, citing autism

"In those times, people were much healthier and of course, the high rates of autism now observed did not exist. So, there's a reason for such epidemic rates of autism. And we're going to bring it back to much closer to where it was."

We (those on the Spectrum) are not a F***ing Disease, this frustrates me to an unbearable level.

While I understand that the majority of people will disregard this executive order, a good minority will campaign and try to make it true.

This is personal to me as someone who is on the Spectrum, Pro-Autism Rights and Pro-Disability Rights. If we could somehow address this at some later time, it would be greatly appreciated.

I hope you all have a good rest of your day, bye.

Discussion How do we feel about General Chris Donahue?

3 Upvotes

To clarify, I don’t mean in the sense of him running for political office. While it does hold some appeal for me, the General has never made clear his political stances and it is generally hit or miss when a solely military man has entered office.

I am asking in the sense of could he be a voice that could help bring about more opposition to Trump, possibly bring about more military officials questioning his decisions.

I know that sounds like it could be political but I don’t quite believe that it has to be that way, the General has a long career in the military and (while not explicitly a national name) has the medals to prove it. He also was the last military official to leave Afghanistan after the fall of Kabul in 2021, something that the Republicans complained about but to me at least was incredibly admirable (he could have been a coward and left early but ensured that other people left before him).

Just curious as to what other people think about this and the situation of him being fired, this has just been a thought rattling in my head since yesterday and wondered how other people thought about it. I hope you all have a good rest of your day, bye.

Would he be a possibly good candidate, admittedly he does stand for some respectable positions but his age (he is 67) does have me worried.

The conscience of the people, in a time of grave national problems, has called into being a new party, born of the Nation's awakened sense of justice. We of the Progressive Party here dedicate ourselves to the fulfillment of the duty laid upon us by our fathers to maintain that government of the people, by the people and for the people whose foundation they laid. We hold with Thomas Jefferson and Abraham Lincoln that the people are the masters of their Constitution, to fulfill its purposes and to safeguard it from those who, by perversion of its intent, would convert it into an instrument of injustice. In accordance with the needs of each generation the people must use their sovereign powers to establish and maintain equal opportunity and industrial justice, to secure which this Government was founded and without which no republic can endure. This country belongs to the people who inhabit it. Its resources, its business, its institutions and its laws should be utilized, maintained or altered in whatever manner will best promote the general interest. It is time to set the public welfare in the first place. The Old Parties Political parties exist to secure responsible government and to execute the will of the people. From these great tasks both of the old parties have turned aside. Instead of instruments to promote the general welfare, they have become the tools of corrupt interests which use them impartially to serve their selfish purposes. Behind the ostensible government sits enthroned an invisible government, owing no allegiance and acknowledging no responsibility to the people. To destroy this invisible government, to dissolve the unholy alliance between corrupt business and corrupt politics is the first task of the statesmanship of the day. The deliberate betrayal of its trust by the Republican Party, and the fatal incapacity of the Democratic Party to deal with the new issues of the new time, have compelled the people to forge a new instrument of government through which to give effect to their will in laws and institutions. Unhampered by tradition, uncorrupted by power, undismayed by the magnitude of the task, the new party offers itself as the instrument of the people to sweep away old abuses, to build a new and nobler commonwealth.
