... and how are they stealing hard working Americans' jobs if they're so lazy?
MAGA is a world of contradiction and none of it is rooted in truth.

Unfortunately, it's exactly what they voted for, and what he said he would do before the election happened. They just refused to hear it.

that's exactly what trump wants... justification for martial law

Oh, they recognized it. They simply refused to publicly acknowledge what it was.
Scratch that.
They intentionally tried to publicly mislead people about what it was.
This wasn't passively sitting it out. They actively participated.

The real question is when they will care enough to do something.

That puts MAGA Mike in the presidency if they impeach both at the same time. If one at a time Vance just names a VP

It's probably the only legitimate way to get rid of the electoral college. BUT, given what we now know about so many people in this country I don't know if it's worth the risk. They just might pick trump as a king instead. It's hard to believe, but it's hard to believe there are so many fascists.

And here I started reading that line as Peter Murphy. It ended very differently.

Ending Citizens United will be tough. The courts won't do it with their current make up and no way corporate democrats will support ending it. It's their bread and butter
It absolutely needs to happen.
At this point the only way to take back our government may be another Constitutional Convention.

It's absolutely the fair and just thing, but I don't think it's realistic for smaller states to willingingly give up their unfair advantage.
We couldn't even get the ERA signed before it expired.

While I support both of these, I don't see this amendment happening. 2/3 of each legislature has to ratify in 3/4 of the states. I think you'd be lucky to get even one of the less populous states to agree with this. And getting 2/3 of the legislature in middle sized states is probably uncommon.

or was it, and they looked the other way?
sounds like conspiracy theory territory, but so is a lot of the stuff we KNOW they are doing.
I doubt that's what happened but it's hard to put anything past this DOJ

The Dems are not extreme at all. I have a hard time even calling the leadership of the party liberal, much less progressive. When something goes wrong with the messaging of leaning too far right they blame it on liberal ideals.

I don't like my proposed path. I just know that most attempts to create a 3rd party at best has gotten some of their ideas co-opted by one of the parties before they fade into nothing or they have tiny followings that just siphon off votes, sometimes leading to the worse option winning.

It's not just living how they feel though. It's who they ARE.
Maybe some are stupid enough to think it really can spread? It's it's not a disease OR a choice.

We have to remember what he's done to America and the world in general, but minimizing his future historical impact would be nice.
He just needs to fade into obscurity for the remainder of his days. Not happening, but I can dream

The entire community needs to stand together, and everyone that is an ally needs to stand with them.
We're ALL stronger together, even if we're none of the letters represented in LGBTQ+

And what's her voting record? She may bitch and moan, but she toes the line.
More of the same, but it is funny when they say it out loud after doing the opposite (in a sad, ironic way more than a ha-ha way)

IF he expects ANY improvements why the FUCK did he vote for it instead of insisting on the improvements BEFORE voting for it?
comment in response to
post
I don't think a new party is the way. I think taking over the Dems similar to what MAGA has done to the Republicans is the better option. I principle the party needs to die. in reality it's just a vehicle that's probably needed. I fully believe the DNC handed trump both victories, through failure.

Kamala was surging until she pivoted "center". People want to pretend it was trans rights and DEI. How much did you hear about either of those from Kamala or her campaign? That was all trump and the media controlling the narrative.

What a coincidence, trump is soft too.

It's probably just something that was claimed on conspiracy media, no basis in reality but they believe it without questioning.

We're literally on the doorstep of curing certain forms of cancer, but nope, tax cuts for the rich are more important.
And morons that don't understand that getting the flu is going to change your DNA more than any mRNA platform vaccine even can are calling the shots.

the flaw with that idea is that it would actually work, and they absolutely don't actually want that. Neither side, really, unless someone is a complete idiot.

I had a policy idea years ago that I thought was great, but would never happen: anyone that turns in an employer which leads to a conviction get citizenship if they don't already have it
That would probably adress any problem far faster than going after the people that are being used.

That woman in the red plaid is my HERO, she got right back in his face without swinging on him. That took not only more courage than most people have but more restraint as well.
WELL PLAYED!

Here's an interesting idea that I might actually consider despite it being toungue in cheek... if I had the luxury of living in a blue state.
I actually don't find flipping it arround offenseive at all. Though I understand why Canadians would, it's compleltely different.

If a business is hiring unqualified people and blaming it on DEI, they're doing DEI wrong. There are almost always well qualified people from underrepresented demographics that want the job, or maybe would if they knew about it. outreach matters

Here's a thought, merit over seniority. No more "they earned it (by existing longer)" or "It's their turn" BS.
Crockett is extremely qualified.
I know that merit has gotten a bad rap because so many use it as an excuse to hire and promote people that look exactly like themselves, or nephews/friend

No worries, I didn't have the full context and didn't realize it was that bad. It's hard to stand firm when others suffer though, even if it is their own fault.

certainly not home of the brave, when you have so many cowards unwilling to speak up and ICE won't even show their faces

I'm assuming he taught you that by bad example? But I bet when it hits the fan you'll probably actually be there, despite the warnings.

12/13 close enough, definitely not "delivered straight out of the factory", unless they took the REALLY long route
comment in response to

ah, I didn't realize it was that old, I knew it was used. But someone was saying it was delivered straight from the factory (because they "knew" a guy who was involved in the sale) when I mentioned it was used... and this was on bluesky, lol, can't trust anyone
