how about we just axe the white house correspondent entirely since they a) won’t stand up for their colleagues and b) won’t stand up to this administration or else they lose access.
the primary reason I stopped watching cable news since the election is the press being less than limp, weak, and feckless when it comes to anything dealing with republicans but somehow find their spines when a democrat is involved.
puritans. you know the people so uptight that the english told them to get the fuck out (or rather they left to practice their uber conservative religion without consequences from the rest of the people).
for whatever reason to our extreme detriment the super conservative religions grow in this country and we’ve all (in general) been taught to not call that oppressive lifestyle out to be polite. it explains why evangelical christianity isn’t really much of a thing outside this country.
how many people are going to blame trump for that when it happens?
I never had any issues finding toilet paper when I went to the store when I needed to get more. and things got better when stores started enforcing limits.
the party wins by following a simple 2 point plan:
I don’t think it’s a coincidence that democrats in special elections way overperform than in general elections lately.
SHUT THE FUCK UP ADDISON. YOU ENABLED THIS.
sincerely your constituent
fun fact addison has weak, really moist hands. I should know, I shook his hand* in college.
*edit- damn autocorrect
i don’t think there’s anything more pathetic than a self-hating member of a minority. log cabin republicans support the very people who would see them tortured, mentally abused, or even better dead.
just because you may be an lgbt doesn’t mean that you are part of the community. skinfolk ain’t necessarily kinfolk.
it’s not government tyranny unless a democrat is president. duh,
i’d like to think most of us saw all of the pride/dei public promotion as virtue signaling (and being honest i was **not **one of those people). but now i hope all of those corporations get all the backlash. not because they were pulling back on all of that but because they were using the very public symbolism as a marketing opportunity and nothing else. it gives the impression that they never had implemented any of those practices or believed in people being who they are in the first place and that’s worse. i would not shop at those places just for these places using very public movements as an “US TOO!” crass commercial opportunity. end stage capitalism in practice, and now watch as these same corporations cry poverty and some sort of activist interference because the free market is reacting to their actions.
good.
more than half of the electeds need to go from all sorts of issues from stabbing biden in the back to push him out to voting to censure rep al green to voting for all of trump’s cabinet picks. the party is rotten and necrotic at the head and it’s dragging the entire country down.
how exactly is making sure that a rushed bill isn’t problem free with the right people in the room to address issues when the bill was written not progressive? sounds like jb is saying write it better and take your time to make sure it’s right this time instead of saying no.
i’m glad that there is an(other) program for audible. i like this one better. it automatically converts to a file format i prefer and downloads my books immediately, which is convenient for preorders. besides that, i personally would like to not use the audible app for playback; this is just a personal preference though. i have an audiobook app that works just as well. if anything this would just be me eliminating an app from my devices than anything else.
he’s done a masterful job of framing issues that the (very) conservative commonwealth can accept without outright rejecting.
and believe it or not, he wasn’t my first choice to be gov in 2019. I thought he was too centrist.
he’s only saying that because he happens to live in a super liberal small rural state.
know what happens in most ither states where you don’t have name recognition or a party infrastructure behind you and you run for office? unless you have some sort of money reserve you can tap into and dollar bills come gushing out like an oil geyser, it’s damn near impossible to not just win but get ballot access TO win. and if you do get ballot access, all you will do is steal votes from the registered democratic candidate (or the democratic candidate steals votes from you) and the republican wins.
a brilliant strategy from a man who twice ran for president as a democrat but refused to change his party affiliation. he didn’t even take his own damn advice, and look at what that got us. just the fact that he didn’t do this his own damn self should show how stupid an idea it actually is.
and by the way, sure he and aoc are drawing huge crowds. crowds are nothing. how many of those people vote? how many of those people get 2 more people to vote? just showing up to a rally means absolutely fuckall if you don’t actually go vote and vote for viable candidates. because if your message resonates with the people enough you don’t have to run unaffiliated with a major party because you would have the votes to run and win as a democratic candidate in the first place. because to be very honest, the thing that bernie is suggesting not only sounds like an exercise in liberal grifting, it also sounds like an excellent way to divide a voting bloc that when split has absolutely no chance of beating a republican ever but would absolutely lead to entrenched infighting among a group that should be united in beating republican christian nationalist fascism.
even though I do not trust self driving cars at this point in time, i would much rather trust literally every other manufacturer’s version of self driving tech except tesler.
this is my shocked face 😐
i’m going to take a counter argument here. the united states should annex canada and buy greenland.
why?
because the population of canada is more than california.
because there are 48 democratic senators.
because canada and denmark are both more left leaning than california is.
see where i’m going here? canada and greenland gives dems enough people to force through their agenda through the house and senate. and with enough backlash there’s probably going to be a lot of gop senators who aren’t going to be senators in 2026, probably enough to hit 69 which would be the minimum to remove trump from office. probably enough to impeach that little lickspittle vance too. and then enough votes for a democratic president (since the house would be run by democrats, 3rd in succession is the speaker of the house) to sign bills giving canada it’s “independance” and return greenland to denmark.
if trump wants it that badly, then lets give it to him.
the smart ones are. the cultists are wrapping themselves in
nationalismpatriotism. the rest are just terminally unaware and don’t vote.
