I am sorry I don’t think his brain has the capacity to do that. He would definitely blow himself up simply picking up the dynamite.
I honestly believe Dort wears headphones 24/7/365 that constantly reminds him to breathe. He’s so mind numbingly stupid he has to be too dumb to remember to breathe on his own.
The GOP entered this redistricting under the rather childish delusion they were going to gerrymander, and nobody would gerrymander them. In TX, MO, and a half dozen other states, they put their rather naive theory into operation. They sowed the wind, and now they are going to reap the whirlwind
Really amazing how reactionaries keep thinking liberals will just lie down and die. The last time they made liberals angry and afraid they invented a device to drop a second sun on cities.
Now comes the finding out phase
Remember, Democrats have repeatedly advanced measures to ban partisan gerrymandering and Republicans have voted against them time after time.
This is the game Republicans wanted to play. OK, then.
I have opposed gerrymandering every single time it has come up. It’s a perversion of the political process. I voted Yes in this election without hesitation. Unilateral disarmament is unacceptable.
if there’s one thing i expect a CIA officer to know, it’s whether or not a given election is gonna be fair #voteyes
It says something that, over and over again, the “civilized real America” that MAGA aspires to have already exists as one of the most liberal parts of the US.
RETVRN is just wanting to live in a blue state.
No we should definitely tilt the playing field against the fascist party. There's a pretty strong case that we should de facto ban the Republican Party.
Yeah, one of the key lessons I’ve taken away from the last decade is that structural neutrality isn’t enough. That you have to defend liberal democracy, liberalism, with passion and prejudice and the determination to utterly destroy its enemies. No quarter in the fight to preserve liberalism.
This is hard because Newsom & Platner & Piker all want to be the main character and the media & conservatives (but I repeat myself) want them to be but we should not allow it
a court reform agenda item for Project 2029 should include dissolving CA5

MAGA’s whole deal has always been that Trump should *explicitly* be held to the lowest possible standard. If any human being has done something horrible, Trump and Trump alone is entitled to do it to.
What’s insane is how many non-MAGA people and institutions agree, even nominally centrist ones
I think moderates-liberals-socialists can create unity against saboteurs by attacking their apparent strengths. People like Piker claim to be "leftists." They are not. They like hierarchy. They want it. They want to be the ones who dominate. IOW, they're rightwingers who left-code their propaganda.
The "AI water crisis" is useful to many people because it deflects attention from the real causes of our water crisis.
Don’t worry they will find another reason to ratfuck us.
I don't believe the voters at all because I think the voters who did this aren't self-aware enough to realize it was a combination of their misogyny, racism, and kneejerk stupidity about "no, price can never go up or my wage increase means nothing!"
No, I don't believe the voters when they said they did this because of the economy. I don't believe them that it was a failure to articulate a progressive agenda. I don't believe them that it was some piece of policy they were waiting out for.
We should not underestimate the extent to which what this is really about is (and I’ve seen screencaps of the other side actually saying this in the past week) “it’s gay to be penetrated, including by a vaccine needle”
it’s so funny that the drunk tv host in charge of the military is like “real warriors don’t need vaccines” when all the greatest generals in history would have done anything for a jab that kept their armies safe from disease
Should be disqualifying. Probably won’t be. Don’t elect Republicans.
@sjshancoxli.liberalcurrents.com The Crisis of Corporate Governance is everywhere once you see it!
I wonder if there’s some Reason that the heavy industry unions are still in the tank for Trump after 11 years while the left-leaning unions are all for the service and public sectors
Something that rhymes with “fender” perhaps
Nurses' and teachers' unions are Democratic Fedaykin, but they don't count because women are bourgeois or something
Trump pardons allies who boost his crypto coin.
Trump invests in corporations that he's supposed to be regulating.
Trump cuts deals with autocrats to advance his family's real estate business.
The list goes on.
We must not become numb to this corruption.
Simple rule: the Senate should not confirm any appointee to any post who can’t say clearly who legitimately won the 2020 presidential election. Not just who was “installed”, but who won the vote and the electoral college.
