    The gop is in the middle of overturning elections in Minnesota and North Carolina. No reason they won’t try it on the federal level in 26

    I'm the furthest thing from an expert here, but in my decidedly non-expert view Israel/Gaza was the ultimate no-win political quagmire for Democrats.

    it's still kind of crazy to think that the democrats response to him doing a coup was to do *absolutely nothing* the next 4 years. oh that's not true, Jack Smith nailed him on 34 felonies that carried no sentence, apparently.

    say what you will about the GOP, if the parties had been exactly reversed, a coup committing Democrat president would be given the electric chair on the White House lawn on national television within a week of being out of office.

    Jack Smith tried and I'm sure plenty of men and women toiled away putting evidence for a case together. Their lives and their families' lives are now in danger. The Biden Administration failed them.

    Trump is a buffoon who hates Muslims but we’re supposed to believe his team when they say he is the reason for a ceasefire. He is the reason good things will happen for the people of Palestine. The ceasefire is not because of the current administration but because of one that isn’t in place yet? As ridiculous as that sounds if it’s true, am I supposed to believe Israel was negotiating in good faith with the Biden administration? FWIW when asked who should get credit for the ceasefire him or Trump, Biden’s reply was simply “is that a joke”.

    Top Dems vote with gop to ban trans athletes. I have no idea what the bill even is. Congrats on banning the like two dozen athletes this applies to?

    but reading the headline actually reminded me how being in our own echo chamber gave me hope the concept of trans kids playing sports isn’t that big of a deal. But you can’t even convince a voting majority of people that a fucking insurrection should be disqualifying. You can lower the bar enough for the avg voter because you’d feel like a scumbag if you’ve got any scruples.

    Kamala Harris Paid the Price for Not Breaking With Biden on Gaza, New Poll Shows
    Twenty-nine percent of non-voters who supported Biden in 2020 said U.S. support for the genocide was the top reason they sat the 2024 election, according to a survey by YouGov.
    Ryan Grim

    Read the full poll here.)

    The top reason those non-voters cited, above the economy at 24 percent and immigration at 11 percent, was Gaza: a full 29 percent cited the ongoing onslaught as the top reason they didn’t cast a vote in 2024.

    Looking narrowly at states that swung from Biden in 2020 to Trump in 2024, the number is smaller. But in those states, 20 percent still cited Gaza as the reason they didn’t vote again. The poll was paid for by the Institute for Middle East Understanding Policy Project, which has been an outspoken critic of Israel’s assault on Gaza.

    I don’t for a moment believe non voters would’ve shown up for Kamala and caused her to win the election had she broken with Biden on Gaza.

    Also, big loser/out of touch energy when she didn’t list shit she’d do differently AND when those fucking losers from her campaign justified it on PSA.

    Why should I be more afraid of China having my data than the fascist United States Government? Not to mention, the Chinese aren't oppressing various groups in this country. Like the government spends years doing horrendous shit to any group that isn't a white male and then turn around and say "I'm here to protect you"

    Fuck all the way off

    Frankly, I find her obvious “welp shucks, gorsh, I’m just a momma who get stuff done in the kitchen and on the Senate floor” vibe to be so painfully cliche that I can only believe she’s so far above replacement level doofus. I’m sure tests well and is good at keeping a schedule.
