2024 levels is not current funding (or untouched)

A clean cr implies no changes from current funding levels, that’s all I’m saying

That’s not a clean cr since the subsequent GOP budget slashed all sorts of things (including SNAP and ACA subsidies)

They truly have no self-awareness. Practically every major GOP candidate in the last decade has had a scandal bigger than Jay Jones and the GOP proudly stands behind them.

Only because of gerrymandering. Statewide races have been about 50/50 dem wins (currently with a dem governor, ltgov, and AG)

I’ve seen some bike advocates pushing just pointing to the direction you’re turning β€” because of drivers’ ignorance of bike hand signals

Bernie Sanders appeals to white Vermonters, is this surprising? Is there a single presidential primary where he got any significant minority vote?

Over the past week, the president said the DOJ should pay him a quarter billion dollars, bulldozed half the White House to build himself a gaudy ballroom, bragged about murdering civilians in international waters, pardoned some more criminals, directed federal prosecutors to indict his opponents ...

Are you a teenager? Voted for Obama in 2008 and have had two dem governors in the meantime. The GOP state legislature (and subsequent extreme gerrymandering and court battles) came about in 2010.
