  1. just filled mine out. No brainer for the most part. I'm voting for every bond and every Dem at the Federal level. Only problem is for County Commissioner. The Republican is the incumbent and has been decent, serving in a bipartisan fashion for 30 years in the role. His Democratic challenger is charged with 4 felonies and 4 misdemeanors after creating online personas to post fake racist attacks against himself, including one named (I shit you not) "Antonio Scalawag". I think the charges are overblown and i don't really think being an online troll should be a criminal offense, but this dumbass' actions still pissed me off so I'm skipping that vote. It did provide a moment of disconnect for my GOP parents (who live in the same district). They mentioned having to get home to vote early against the felon. I asked them if they were voting against the felon for POTUS as well and got a lot of hemming and hawing about fake charges and projection towards me for bringing up politics (I didn't) in return. These people are gone, baby gone.
  2. I hate those alerts as much as anyone. You can turn them off. Just a public service. I slept beautifully through the night.
  3. Thank you for those chyrons Thank you for pointing them out. I missed it at first
  4. Latest bullshit smear attack on Walz: Subheadline: what he actually said: Hey morons: Explaining a theory is not advocating for its adoption. https://www.foxnews.com/politics/walz-state-education-appointee-called-us-overthrown-deconstructed
  5. We need better progressive populists today. The OG's passed amendments instituting a national sales tax, direct senatorial elections, and women's suffrage (sure Prohibition was a screw up, but they passed yet ANOTHER amendment to fix that). And that was in an equally polarized country where a majority were disenfranchised. We can change things. We've done it before. Blaming the Founding Fathers is lazy and projection.
  6. I don't know how many voters are taking it under consideration, but the Republican PA Legislature passed a law that requires all in person votes to be counted before any count of write ins is done. Dems need to vote in person so Harris leads on election night.
  7. I've been trying to convince the wife to move to Southern WA for years. Shop in Astoria, live in Washington.
  8. The easiest thing to pass would be a law adjusting the size of Congress with every census. Its obviously Constitutional - we did it every census until 1930. It was literally the original first amendment so the FF would approve. Just need a majority of both the House and Senate. F a filibuster. no income tax in wa
  9. https://thehill.com/homenews/campaign/4860996-robert-f-kennedy-jr-kamala-harris-donald-trump-2024-election/ Fucking asshole. Agree here. The President should be able to put together a sentence. Prospective cabinet members also shouldn't sound like they gargled the Devil's cum when they talk. That's why I'm voting Kamala
  10. He knows it's fake. Hence the "Political Cartoons" thread - even though there's no cartoon.... Don't take the bait
  11. Pretty sure the JD stands for Jackie Daytona. Regular human senator with topiaries in the shape of his two favorite love seats.
  12. is the goal to get attention or get a cease fire?
  13. NGL Simone Biles would be awesome
  14. Thanks to you and Tuco for this. I assumed that because he chose to be uncommitted in the primary that he wasn't committed to any candidate in the general. I don't have an issue with a pro cease fire candidate speaking. I just think it is completely counterproductive to refuse to commit your primary vote and demand a spot at the convention anyway. That's simply not how this works.
  15. because they committed to voting for Harris/Walz
  16. Congress needs to pass a law that adjusts the number of representatives with every census. It would increase the size of the House and give the bigger states more representatives in the chamber, thus helping to ensure the Dems hold it. SCOTUS can't do a damn thing. There is nothing in the Constitution that limits the size of the House. The House already expanded every census until 1930. The original proposed first amendment actually adjusted the size of the House with every census. Nine states ratified it, IIRC, but 10 were needed to beat the 3/4 threshold. It would also increase the number of electoral votes from larger states and help ensure that the winner of the popular vote would win the electoral college.
  17. The only people that pronounce Kamala's name like it rhymes with "Impala" are right wing blowhards or those that consume too much media from them. It's comma-la. It's not hard. It means "lotus" and it's a fairly common name, as pointed out above. Just another one of those under the radar attempts to emphasize her weird foreign name. It's Barack HUSSEIN Obama all over again. Don't fall for it.
  18. It still amazes me that these fuckheads continue to refuse to say her name correctly. It's not "Ka MAH luh" and they fucking well know it. It's just a dog whistle so they can tell who's in their stupid cult (and so I can tell who is a stupid moron I can immediately dismiss).
  19. Whew. String Wagner in Pittsburgh vibes there
  20. Didn't Donnie's PAC pay Malania's hairdresser hundreds of thousands of dollars for "strategic consulting"?
