  1. Why do you want a pat on the head for doing the bare minimum? And why did you modify my post that you quoted like that?
  2. It's very easy to tie a direct line from pretty much anyone in the Bush administration to Trump and Trumpism, but the US attorney scandal Gonzales oversaw definitely shouldn't be forgotten. That was the GOP's first real attempt to use the powers of the state to wage their political propaganda campaign about voter fraud. That propaganda campaign has undermined the very foundations of American democracy in a way that may not be reparable.
  3. True, but we should still get to send Cheney and Gonzales to Gitmo when this is all over with.
  4. SCOTUS was just so sure a couple of months ago that this wasn't how it worked!
  5. I honestly might hate this even more than Cheney. Talk about motherfuckers who paved the road for Trump. But hopefully this, Cheneys, and other republicans help create the permission structure for Republican voters who aren’t part of the cult to vote Dem this time.
  6. Trump likely paid Snopes to publish that dogshit. We've been over this before: ANYONE who pretends he wasn't calling nazis very fine people is either too fucking stupid to have conversations with anybody over the age of five or is a nazi sympathizer.
  7. Now now Heso, they've respectfully requested your "understanding and support."
  8. Unfortunately, I had to hock them to pay for storm repairs.
  9. Maybe the extremely divorced man who is a drug addict and is threatening to rape the most famous pop star in the world shouldn't have a security clearance anymore.
  10. If this board is going to force a poster to scroll texags for their debate responses, we need to raise a few million bucks for the lifetime of intense therapy they’re going to need.
  11. Anyone who watches is a sick pervert who should be locked up.
  12. Awww, poor incredulity, can't grasp the concept of real wages.
  13. Some new info out from the census bureau summarized by a great blue sky thread here. The key point:
  14. Abbott will order they kill him twice.
  15. Someone needs to run for office on a pledge to make this shit illegal.
  16. That's how people usually describe the real estate business.
  17. A makeshift refugee camp isn't a "civilian center" teeming with Hamas leadership. Use your fucking brain.
  18. The Houston vs. Austin wars will be a long and bloody affair.
  19. Abbott’s assholery won’t be a liability in a gop primary, it’ll be his main selling point. His liability will be the fact that he’s crippled.
  20. I hope hell is real so we can meet there.
  21. No no, she’s supposed to be a leftist Matt Gaetz who does nothing but shut down the government. That’s the true leftist goal, please just ignore how much the right loves shutting down the government.
  22. You're a Jimmy Dore fan, which makes you even more contemptible than the average Ben Shapiro viewer. You're a leftist who doesn't actually give a single shit about any of the things you purport to care about, but use those issues to attack liberals for not being pure enough in a mission to help conservatives maintain political power.
  23. Their voters "ran them out." Yes, AIPAC supported their opponents, but they lost in open elections, largely because they did some stupid shit and lost support of a lot of people who had previously voted for them. You notice AOC and Omar didn't lose their primaries, because they're smarter politicians. I'm sorry you don't get to wake up every day with a blowjob from Rachel McAdams and eat nothing but the finest steaks that are magically good for you too. But the way politics works in any democratic system is that various coalitions organize to elect politicians who will support policies that they like. And because the left has been utterly fucking worthless at politics for your entire lifetime (what a surprise, given how it's been made up of selfish and lazy people like you), the right has been better at politics. That's not something that can get turned around in four years, especially when dumb motherfucking "leftists" like you actively oppose the results of progressive policies that you nominally supported. You know what really doesn't fucking help advance leftist causes? When stupid assholes like you actively oppose the president and the party's economic record after they enact what has been far and away the most progressive economic agenda since LBJ was in office, an agenda that has resulted in the strongest real wage increases (that means adjusted for inflation you economically illiterate shithead) for the working class in 50+ years. Or when stupid assholes like you oppose a president's opposition to an unprovoked invasion of another country by a shitty dictator-run colonial power just because they don't like America and your kneejerk contrarianism tells you that anyone who says bad things about American foreign policy must be good. Yes, Biden sucks on Israel/Palestine, but you and the part of the left you listen to hated his foreign policy before 10/7, which at the time consisted of actually withdrawing our troops from Afghanistan and of supporting an ally against a hostile foreign invasion without getting American troops caught up in it. "Leftists" like you are worse than worthless. Just loser fucking GenX assholes who are too lazy to do the tiniest bit to advance any causes you supposedly support and spend all of your emotional energy trying to prevent anyone else from actually advancing those causes, pretending that you're just too morally pure to sully yourself with politics. Fuck you. Trump is promising mass murder and not only can you not be bothered to do your most basic civic duty to stop him, you're actively encouraging others to stay on the sidelines too. People like you are why Reaganism took over American politics and why the Democratic party felt the need to triangulate behind Clinton in the first place. Politicians don't chase votes from nonvoters. If y'all had actually cared enough about the things you pretend to support to stay organized and politically active, America would be a much better and safer place right now, the fucking planet wouldn't be nearly as cooked, we wouldn't be mindlessly supporting Israel right now, and people like troph wouldn't need to be making fucking escape plans. If you're not going to lead, and you're not going to follow those who do, then get out of the fucking way.
