Hey LNP little less blame game and a bit more bipartisan effort after the biggest mass shooting since Port Arthur please.

This RWer is the reason why political debate has gone so sour. While I may not agree with @lisazed.bsky.social 100% of the time that is ok for example. That comes from our views being at odds on a couple of issues which we discussed in another thread.

Pappas: It’s a big tell that Republicans are trying to gerrymander their way into a permanent majority, because they understand how historically unpopular their ideas are. Whether it’s closing rural hospitals, kicking people off their health insurance, or taking food away from hungry families

My Response to Matt Walsh on Muslims, Slavery, and the Founding of America
The Daily Wire shockjock is not just astonishingly bigoted towards Muslim Americans - he is also astonishingly ignorant about Muslim Americans, too. Watch me debunk his BS and teach him a lesson.

Republicans control every branch in Washington.
Now, Trump is openly giddy about using the shutdown to slash and burn federal resources that working Americans count on.
