Itβs unconscionable that in a society as wealthy as America, thereβs no paid parental leave, and zero publicly funded daycare. βWhat to do with kids whiles we work and they arenβt old enough for TKβ is such a barrier/weight/burden.

It's disgusting how much you are depending on others to do your jobs. You're waiting for the courts to take action, rather than DOING SOMETHING YOURSELVES TO STOP THE FASCISM.
You're all still pandering to those three rural men who love Law & Order in a Kansas diner who'll never vote for you.
Surely that was not intended to be heard as a compliment by anyone who's not a moron. Trump took it as one but I suspect Carney didn't mean "transformative" in a positive way.

You guys are so invested in pandering to the right that you can't fight back against military occupation and ICE thugs, for fear of pissing off people who'll never vote for you.

Dems are just chickenshits who love to post and then run off to have lunch with Ted Cruz.
There is no point in having these hearings. There's no consequences to Bondi lying and obfuscating. Dems are just giving her a platform to make sound bites for Fox and for them to spout their propaganda.
We need to penalize lying by excluding liars from public life, not "debating" them.
i'm not out of line here in thinking there's a tremendous amount of property theft, extortion, and worse, happening with ICE right?

One of the reasons Trump has been successful is indeed people from a variety of political perspectives, including your own, being unable to place the level of danger and suffering he represents in its proper context inculcating a level of unwarranted complacency. Some idiots continue to be useful.
