Meanwhile, Annie Jacobsen has a recent book on exactly this subject that has been making the rounds these past months. Those two have to be living in a small bubble to not know about this book.

Like feeding kids and stopping the rampant war on drugs that has destroyed a bunch of lives and families over a little plant called marijuana? He's my governor and once dems secured a majority in our state they've been improving tons of stuff.

What the republican machine is setting up for this go around is at the local level. They are putting funding into "election monitoring" and there is also the risk that certain states or localities refuse to certify a Kamala win.

This is okay. Although I think they should've picked Hunter, because he has cooler criminal charges than Trump, and would've been able to out flank the republicans on the crime front.

Until we actually remove republicans and republican lites from the legislature I highly doubt we'll see any progressive tax reforms, like actually taxing the rich. You could probably find more support for expanding house buying programs. Stuff like lowering the down payment requirements, and or give a large grant for a portion of the house value if it is high and it could be clawed back at sale.

Would Trump win? (lemmy.world)

If there was a game show like are you smarter than a fifth grader, but instead it is are you smarter than previous President George Bush Jr. and twice impeached previous President Trump is the first contestant would Trump win? So basically who is smarter the 43rd or 45th?

This is so confusing. I thought the DOJ due to the existence of a memo would not charge a sitting president with a crime, period. So why are these republicans wasting tax payer bucks on these investigations?

As far as releasing the tape, just do what they did with the Mueller report and lock it in a tiny room with severely restricted access. The republicans can have a cassette tape of the interview and a record player to listen, but they only get 3 minutes, and no phones or any other recording devices.

You left out the forced rounded corners.

The American fascist party isn't even trying to hide it anymore.

There was a brief record scratch moment when the abortion ban stuff happened, but the trumpers I know got right back on the bandwagon and are now talking "white replacement theory."

I think a fair few of these people don't see the very fine line that Biden is stuck walking. He really doesn't want to see that lobby money head to Trump's campaign. And the people pissed at Biden not doing more for the people in Gaza seem to ignore that the alternative is Trump, who will likely just not care.

Or the little twerp could've followed the law and not be out past curfew brandishing a firearm.
