Lol…

I hope they push it thru, the reason they stopped was they realized it would spread their majorities too thin, especially since last time someone ran for president with a progressive campaign they won Indiana.

Trump’s too stupid to understand what redistricting means tho, he thinks it’s just automatically more House seats and prior Republicans just didn’t think to take an obvious win with no downsides…

If that’s how it would work out, they’d have done this decades ago.

They haven’t, because it’s too much of a risk of losing the state.

Donald Trump is purging the higher ranks based on his prejudices and demands for loyalty

Not exactly…

High ranking cowards are resigning so they keep their pensions.

There are a bunch of hoops trump needs to go thru if he wanted to fire high ranking officers, and he’d never have been able to “fire” as many who gave up without a fight.

If they weren’t cowards, they’d stay and fight. Like, there are established procedures for illegal orders, the only choices aren’t “follow” or “resign”.

All resigning does is leave the spot open for someone who’s fine with the illegal orders.

Yeah, it just doesn’t hit it.

Gravity does work with dark matter tho, so we can’t really say “unaffected” because the dark matter would still bend the light due to gravity. I’m not sure if we can detect that bend, but I remember something relatively recently about how dark matter can interact via gravity, and I’m assuming bending light would have been the easiest way to test that.

It’s just a thing, some will have a posted notice they do it, some just do it.

You can try to keep track of which ones do it, but if the hold is a concern the easiest way is to pay before pumping.

The scientist may be right…

But that blog also thinks aliens are here and all types of other crazy shit

Then your goal isn’t a non biased party…

You want a party that interferes in primaries.

Which is incredibly shortsighted and counter to the bottom-up power structure that a democratic party would have.

Go moderate the republicans if you want a top-down power structure. But if we can only pick between the two, any gains would be temporary and the wealthy will seize control of both.

Do you just spam that in every thread now?

Or do you legitimately think talking about the Epstein files is a distraction from the Epstein files?

Stop blaming the whole party for some ass hats who need primaried…

Especially now that the DNC won’t throw it’s weight behind them in those primaries. They’ll be on their own and weak, but all 8 won’t have a primary until a new chair is seated.

They’re betting on people checking out and neoliberals being able to regain the party in time for their next elections.

So it’s my fault other people were wrong before, and because they were wrong, that can never be true?

Like, Martin has a decade long track record running DFL in Minnesota, you don’t need to take anyone’s word. And he’s been running the party for 9 months now…

Have you not looked into any of that?

Or is the difficulty putting it together? Because from what you just said this is a flaw of critical thinking, and that’s not something anyone can fix in a couple of social media comments.

But “logic” is an actual field of study, you can take classes in college on it. And there are free resources as well. It would be best for you to start there, because while politics is important, your flawed critical thinking is most likely negatively effecting large portions of your life at every turn.

Buddy…

No one is debating if Biden was a good president, the vast majority of people have reconciled that he was a piece of shit that wasn’t mentally capable to take care of himself let alone run a country.

But:

and that is how we got here

Is obviously and clearly wrong, because the president before Biden was fucking trump.

And if you’re just talking about pardons being an issue, that’s been an issue long before trump.

The problem is a lot bigger than Biden or trump.

why not just get rid of both parties and start over?

Because for the first time in ~50 years we got a DNC that isn’t going to put it’s finger on the scale.

This is literally the worst time to “get rid of” the party system. 8-16 years from now? Sure I hope a lot of shit has changed. But giving up on the party now would just mean republicans win and the DNC voting members may seat a neoliberal as chair again.

You’re arguing that after running 26 miles we should give up on finishing the marathon, two blocks from the finish line.

What you’re arguing for is just illogical, you’re either ignorant of a lot of shit that’s pretty basic, or lack the critical thinking to put it all.together.

But regardless of the reason, you’re giving the worst advice possible

Why the fuck do people keep saying that, after we know for a fact he has a humiliation fetish?

“Someone should spank you with that,” she recalled saying to the politician about the magazine.

Daniels, 45, then testified that Trump, who was wearing a black kimono-like garment over a tight black shirt, rolled up the magazine and “gave me a look,” seemingly as a dare.

“So I took it from him and I said turn around, and I swatted him right on the butt,” she told jurors. “And he was much more polite.”

People like Trump who constantly put on a “tough guy act” can 100% be submissive and capable of giving a blowjob.

Fucking crazy that in 2025 so many people think sexuality is basic.

just business as usual

There’s nothing wrong with saying both parties do fucked up shit.

But your using past fucked up things to justify current fucked up things.

The correct conclusion to “both sides do fucked up shit” is to try and get at least one to stop, not to get people to stop caring when anything fucked up happened.

The pardon system is being abused and has been abused, that means “fix it” not “stop caring”

He says it’s not a Clinton… But won’t say what it actually meant…

But one thing I’ve seen in other articles is that “Bubba” can be used by pedophilea to refer to boys.

And I could have sworn at least two boys have sued trump for sexual assault already.

It’s much worse than Clinton, he’s a (presumably) consenting adult. But if we keep saying it’s Clinton, there’s a chance one of these idiots say what it actually meant.

Right, but they said h1b’s are modern slavery…

Which means they don’t know how bad either are/were…

But fuck man, if you didn’t understand before this comment, I doubt this will help. It’s not exactly complicated and from your response you didn’t just miss a little thing, you fundamentally dont know how the English language works.

“Not every” means that not only are they wrong here, they’re so fundamentally wrong that they’re most likely long about other modern things they think are “modern slavery”.

It’s like a 9 year old saying homework is modern slavery. At least that makes sense because they’re 9.

n adult that thinks H1bs are modern slavery is a fucking idiot that doesn’t understand either

Not ever bad thing is slavery…

But you don’t seem to understand any of this

You said it’s something that concerns you…

In the time you’ve spent making random guesses and defending your own ignorance, you could have learned about it…

So you have no idea how it affects you, despite it being something that affects your career…

And instead of doing any type of basic research, you’re just making random guesses nd hoping for the best?

I’m shocked you have a job to worry about losing

It’s not really slavery…

Because you can quit, you just go back to your home country.

And your home country might suck, but if you got a H1B, you’re upper class. No one goes from starving to getting a 100k salary in tech on a H1B.

It’s more like how Americans work on an oil platform. They come here to earn a shit ton of money on a short timeline, then go back home where the money is worth a shit ton more instead of spending here or even “investing” it.

It 100% needs to end…

Like, how it was intended was fine, but now it’s used to get employees who can’t quit. Sign them to a contract that doesn’t get OT and make em work 100 hr weeks when here till they burn out then replace them.

So Americans need to put up with it, or they won’t get hired.

Why do you think that?
