Iโm still not optimistic. We have a felon in the White House who has been impeached twice (and deserves a third time), but we canโt get 2/3 of the Senate to give him the boot.

Barney Frank using the โnuclear optionโ years ago backfired spectacularly when the GOP got the upper hand.
If you can do it, they can too.
If they can get away with eliminating a representativeโs job because they have a majority or supermajority, what is to stop them from using your tool to end their term early.
Honesty isnโt important to the corrupt.
Be careful what you wish for.

Letโs face it, we have a White Supremacist government.
The CSA finally won.
He probably bought votes.

05.08.2025 14:49 โ ๐ 1 ๐ 0 ๐ฌ 0 ๐ 0Reminder: Tariffs aren't paid by other countries, no matter what Trump says.
A tariff is an import tax, raising the price of almost everything we buy.
Tariffs are also regressive โ taking a higher percentage out of the paychecks of working people than out of the wealthy.
Well, if no one notices it, no one can do anything about it.
This highlights that the GOP is trying to take your right to be represented away from you.
Now you know itโs happening. What are you going to do about it?
They used it as a verification tool
05.08.2025 01:09 โ ๐ 1 ๐ 0 ๐ฌ 0 ๐ 0It keeps them from being able to do it without people noticing at least.
04.08.2025 18:37 โ ๐ 0 ๐ 0 ๐ฌ 1 ๐ 0Based on history, if the Republicans go this route, it will lead to violence. Maybe not right away, but it will lead to violence. When the people think the vote is worthless and theyโre not being heard, they will see no other choice.
Yes, nonviolence will be an option - but violence is easier.
Other than perhaps keeping what you write together - say in a notebook, so you can look at it again if you want to, I donโt think thereโs a wrong way to do it. It could even just be some bullet points. ๐คทโโ๏ธ. Itโs not as if someone is going to tell you youโre doing it wrong. ๐

It turns out they only care about the money.
Iโm glad you get it. Hopefully you can have that response, then move past it when you remember that red doesnโt just mean MAGA. ๐

02.08.2025 15:29 โ ๐ 0 ๐ 0 ๐ฌ 0 ๐ 0So what about the St. Louis Cardinals fans?
There are also red hats that spoof MAGA or are otherwise responses to MAGA. You can find โNo Kingsโ hats that are red. Iโm sure the color choice was deliberate, too.
So they canโt talk about anything else? They donโt ignore what the government is doing, but sometimes we need a break it up or we will get burnt out and stop listening completely.

They did report about how Bidenโs decline was hidden by his inner circle when it became known.
