Dude should have known not to vote for it, like how the majority of his caucus knew not to, instead of voting for it and then mere days (or a week or two, I dunno time is crazy) later saying he regrets it. You only get one shot dude, do better.

As for his district, they need to primary him and show him, and other Democrats, that they will be out of a job if they do things like this.

What fucking estrogen kit would that even be? It looks so fucking fake, needles haven’t looked like that in decades. My estrogen needle and syringe is also tiny as fuck, there are two bottles in that kit, and only one bandaid that’s already had the wrapping removed? This is the most obviously fake bullshit I have ever seen not just because of how dumb it is but because of how inaccurate that stuff is.

Also, two needles/syringes? Just two? So it’s two doses? That’s not much of a kit considering that’d be two weeks of a dose. Plus the syringes being so large shows they don’t understand how little your dosage is, I take .3ml every Friday, that syringe is too large to even be able to draw so little and measure it accurately. Also I’ve never seen a bottle of estrogen that fucking big, they literally don’t ship that large. I’m just. This is so fucking dumb.

Especially since “later” is doing a lot of heavy lifting here given that it was literally within days.

A lot of Christians don’t think Mormons are Christian. They are of course, but many don’t think so.

Her platform was a fuck ton of things including but not limited to increasing the minimum wage to at least 15 bucks an hour, codifying abortion, legalizing weed, introducing a wealth tax and a unrealized gains tax and hire corporate tax, going after companies that engaged in greedflation, being anti monopoly by using the FCC to push for less consolidation, put a cap on rent increases, providing a pathway to citizenship for undocumented immigrants, more investment in infrastructure, providing first time home buyers down payment assistance that would have helped millions upon millions of people buy houses, and pushing for lower cost to more medications by leveraging Medicare having the ability to negotiate prices. There’s more but that’s just off the top of my head.

Did she say those things in her commencement speech? Yup. Arguing for the most lethal military was fucking weird but was likely just her trying to take away that talking point from the right as opposed to anything being mirrored in her actual platform. Still fucking weird though.

The border bill was not a slight variation from what’s currently in place unless you consider billions upon billions of dollars making ice the larger than tons of other departments, then yes those billions upon billions were a slight variation. The actual bipartisan bill included far more funding for actually working towards continuing to crack down on drug smuggling by having detection machines at ports, as opposed to just grabbing randoms off the street or at illegal crossings like the BBB.

AI also isn’t going anywhere so I don’t see why saying she wanted us to lead the field is a bad thing (especially since that would likely come with a lot of regulation under her as opposed to none under Trump and a desire for a full moratorium on passing any AI regulation for 10 year), nor with going to space which likely would have come with actually increasing NASAs budget as opposed to almost eliminating it entirely under Trump. Don’t see how either of those are both inherently pro regime change and pro corporations and monopolies.

Almost nothing you’ve said is talking about embracing Liz Cheney’s platform either, Liz is against regulation, Harris was for it. Liz is against higher taxes for the rich and corporations, Harris was for it. Liz is against abortion, Harris was for it, Liz is against the minimum wage increase, Harris was for it. They only seemed to line up on having a strong military and passing a immigration bill that wasn’t the best but was also all they could do with Republicans in control of Congress and was a compromise and likely would have been renegotiated if she had come into office with a democratic congress. That’s two things of so so many.

Also, to say that Harris was only running on not being Trump is far right propaganda and absolutely BS. She had multiple interviews about her policies, she had a whole policy page on her site, she talked incessantly about policy during the election and what she’d implement, the DNC had a policy platform that she was running on. She had a platform, it was largely positive, to say otherwise is to disregard reality.

Wouldn’t rehabilitating him mean they’re saying “actually Dick was a really good guy and did a lot of good”? Or to do what they did with W. by making him much more human by talking about his art and his friendship with Michelle Obama?

If you mean embrace as in campaign with him, that never happened. If you mean tout his endorsement as a way of showing just how crazy trump was, yeah that happened.

She did campaign with Liz Cheney which was dumb but it wasn’t as a “we agree on everything and have the same platform” it was all about how she disagreed on almost everything except how bad trump is. So they campaigned. It was dumb but to say they agreed is dumb when they literally talked about how they didn’t in the handful of campaign stops they did together.

I also don’t know what you mean by embracing his platform? Regime change? Didn’t embrace. Cutting taxes for the rich? Didn’t embrace. Pro corporations and monopolies? Didn’t embrace.

The only argument I could see is immigration and that’s a dumb campaign decision they made to say she would sign the bipartisan agreement made in the senate that Trump killed so he could campaign on the border. She also talked about pathways to citizenship which trump didn’t.

It was insane to campaign with Liz but she didn’t embrace her platform at all.

Is it rehabilitating Cheney just to basically say “look at how bad Trump is, even Dick Cheney thinks you should not vote for him and vote for us.”?

I’d imagine a lot of those people are on food stamps so that’ll hopefully impact that disapproval as well. This is pre-losing snap, it’ll be interesting to see polls after.

About 25 years late with this article. Roberts betrayed America for George W. Bush when he argued before the supreme court that Bush won despite being behind (or about to be behind as votes were still being counted and gore had the momentum, can’t remember) at the, at the time, current vote total. Bush rewarded him with the position of Chief Justice. Fuck him. He’s a large part of why we are here.

Ah I see, you’re not missing something. I was basing it off of her AMA on reddit from a long while ago now when Jan hadn’t announced her retirement yet.

Still think she deserves criticism for running in a district she doesn’t live in and for moving from texas to Illinois and within a year running for Congress there. But she at least is running for an empty seat. There are also several other candidates in the race who are just as progressive who actually live in the district.

Edit at the top: the seat she is running for is going to be empty so that’s at least one area of criticism she shouldn’t face.

She is running in a seat currently held by a Democratic congresswoman who, to be fair, has been in office for a while. It’s a primary and she’s running against her. Not an open seat unless the current congresswoman has recently announced she won’t be running which would have had to happen in the last couple weeks and I think is unlikely.

The indictment specifically accuses Abughazaleh, among others, of banging aggressively on the windows, hood and other areas of the agent’s car, pushing against it to “hinder and impede its movement” and etching the word “PIG” on the car.

This is so dumb. Oh no! The ICE agent was scared! Almost exactly like how he makes everyone else feel!

Kat is a really good voice to have and this is the dumbest thing you can throw against her. Criticize her about how she’s not running in the district she lives in, how she moved to Illinois from Texas and within a very short time decided to run for congress against a Democratic congresswoman who the community of the district genuinely likes and has been rather progressive ( I have been corrected, the congresswoman is retiring). About how she’s acting like she knows a lot about the district saying she lives right next to a bus line that is a few stops away from that district despite the fact that bus line doesn’t go to that district. Not this horseshit.

Paused my ass, he fucking froze as if his brain was broken and was very clearly trying to fake technical issues despite obviously swaying back and forth a bit. The cnn host had to cut with the claim of technical issues after Stephen refused to respond to the host saying “Stephen? Stephen are you there? Can you hear me?”

The dude realized he said Plenary authority, regretted immediately and instead of pivoting and making it seem like a mistake by correcting himself to “plenty”, his brain broke. Fuck off with this sane washing NY Times saying he “paused”. That implies he resumed after a couple seconds.

Wait what has he been capitulating on?

I’ll always remember on here when, during the election, I was talking about how bad Project 2025 was and how terrifying it was. I then had several folks say simultaneously that Project 2025 was nothing to be afraid of (was a boogeyman that they wanted me to be afraid of) and that Biden had already actually implemented about 80% of it. Crazy stuff.

Project 2025 was always Trump’s plan and I wish the media, and people like the commenters I mentioned, would have done better at understanding how bad it was and how his supposed distancing was all fucking BS.

Tucker has claimed multiple times at least since last year that Pete is actually straight. All because of his Gay Producer seemingly being the decider of who is and isn’t gay. I wouldn’t be surprised if either the Producer is just pulling it out of his ass, or he heard Pete might have dated women before coming out in 2015 so just assumes that means he couldn’t be gay. Cause obviously there’s no such thing as being in denial. That Producer might be experiencing a real Gold Star Lesbian thought process.

Either way, Tucker only knows anything about sex as a gay person because he’s had sex with that demon (obviously an incubus) that supposedly scratched him last year. They were love scratches.

Tucker is a Demon Fucker. Pass it on.

Andrew Cuomo also happens to have an Andrew Cuomo problem.

Good

And they’ll still reelect him next year.
