Especially since Schumer caved in March so he could get a better deal in September when he claimed Republicans would be more desperate. He's a fool and a liar and he has to go.

"If you’re a Republican official convicted of corruption, your odds of receiving clemency from Trump are roughly 100%...

"The latest move seems intended to deliver a political message: Those who assist Trump with his schemes need not worry about legal consequences..."

She's a very young 60, so a Pelosi can be Speaker for another 40 years easy.
Christine Pelosi, daughter of Nancy Pelosi, has announced she’s running for the California State Senate.

i dont think there’s ever been a point where corporate america has had a sincere sense of morality but it is probably a sign of the times that the culture at most major firms does not even pretend to encourage ethical behavior anymore. the transformation is really stark in tech.
i honestly do not know what major company in america isnt involved in some ghastly shit at this point? i just would not *do* the ghastly shit yourself.
are we shaming people for having worked for companies that did ghastly shit elsewhere but far away organizationally because I'll be the first to say I ran a poop plant for a company that was/is major defense contractor and I'm pretty sure was involved with NEOM and *am* sure works with the UAE

Die Umdeutung des 6. Januars zu "eine überreagierende demokratische Regierung hat ihre Befugnisse überschritten und die Wähler haben Trump das Mandat gegeben, das wieder gerade zu rücken" ist eine der größten politischen Katastrophen der letzten 10 Jahre.
New:

On The Gateway Pundit's podcast yesterday, Stewart Rhodes announced he's relaunching the Oath Keepers

He also urged Trump to “call us up as a militia" & "order us all to come together in our counties under his command."

Trump has executed six more civilians in a small boat. The death toll now stands at 76.

It’s such a bad idea, when one of his crimes was calling forth an insurrection, that he’s actually forbidden from holding the office by a constitutional provision, which a unanimous Supreme Court invented a way to turn off.
To repeat: Maybe electing a life-long criminal to an office where he can pardon other criminals wasn't such a good idea.

Die fehlende Bereitschaft gegen Trump vorzugehen, gegen Farage vorzugehen, gegen die AfD vorzugehen, weil man überzeugt ist, dass man *deren* Wählerbasis gewinnen muss, um ein tatsächliches Mandat zu haben.

Seit dem Scalia-Debakel müssten die Demokraten wissen, was Sache ist und sie spielen immer noch: "Wir sind ihnen entgegen gekommen, jetzt müssen die Republikaner mit uns zusammenarbeiten."

Eine Seite will dich totschlagen und die andere Seite denkt, sie sei in einem Schaukampf ohne Körperkontakt.

Shaheen: "We've heard from a number of our colleagues on the other side of the aisle that they're willing to come to the table, they're willing to work with us once the govt is open to get this done. We've heard the same thing from the White House. So now we'll see if they're really gonna work w/us"

It's cool when a member of Congress says there's no point in standing up to the bully who is literally taking our tax money.

We do not have a federal government.

the people who made this are such clowns that they included the time Peter Stuyvesant seized Jewish property, had it sold at auction, and petitioned the Dutch East India Company to expel the Jews in the years of “greatness”

Wie schon erwähnt, die Bereitschaft Teile der Wählerschaft als "illegitim" oder "falsche Wähler" zu sehen ist ein grundlegender Teil der Probleme in allen westlichen Staaten. 1000 Stimmen auf Thüringer Dörfern > 10.000 Stimmen in Friedrichshain.
Oh, WOW, I had missed this peak piece by The Economist.

So much to unpack here...

Liebe auch weiter wie "einfach härter für die Demokraten wählen und mehr Geld spenden" ihr ganzes Programm ist. Kein Plan. Keine Vision. Keine Bereitschaft ein System umzustrukturieren, dass sie selbst in der Regierung daran hindert, politisch tätig zu werden. Fette, satte Grifter.

Not a political consultant but I’m not sure “standing up to trump doesn’t work” is the best midterm message, even if if accurately represents senate dems position. Not much point in putting you in power then bsky.app/profile/atru...
