He has to say that in order to keep Trump on his side. He doesn't actually mean it, but he has to say it.

All due respect, think you are being a bit naive as to the direction the GOP is heading in

They are not gaining all this power to subvert an election for no reason. Those fools are gonna pull the trigger one day. Maybe as early as 2024.

One thing that’s always hilarious to me about Don Lemon, is it took til the Trump era…for him to realize just how racist America still is.

Man was talking about post racial society and pull yourself up by the bootstraps **** in 2014.

He finically started getting his “****er reminder” a few years back.

Went from 0 to 100 real quick.

exactly these dudes stacking all this power.. and when someone like this dude openly says what they’re going do with that power, there are people quick to say o it’s just a joke or they didn’t really mean it literally

people stormed the capital building less than a year again and folks still ain’t taking shh seriously.. they were talking about killing the Vice Presiden, the Republican Vice President

but still folks don’t believe them when they say exactly what they’re going do.. bush v gore should have been clues enough of how far those folks will go for power and how weak the democrats are to seriously fight it

I don't see how you blame the Democrats for this though, especially after reading the article

Maybe CO and NJ, but that probably represents closer to 2-3 seats at most

Was more so pointing out both parties are not the same

Although I do think neutral redistricting in blue states is stupid, especially right now
Either accomplish it simultaneously in all 50 or gerrymander the hell out of the maps

Hell yeah look at the Supreme Court…. Literally look at that buill****

 

[Wargames]

Flip side the Dems could probably maintain power as a group even in Gerry mandering by extending the amount of congressional seats to better represent the population and creating a surge of new seats in urban areas…. But that would require them to give up power individually and they aren’t going to do that.

Carson v. Makin - SCOTUSblog

Independent News and Analysis on the U.S. Supreme Court

www.scotusblog.com

If oral arguments were a preview of what the opinion looks like, the Supreme Court is about to rule that states are constitutionally required to finance sectarian hate speech

Plaintiffs want to send their kids to highly sectarian "Christian" schools. Not only do these "schools" disallow any student or employee to be gay or express "approval" of homosexuality, they actively teach as part of the 9th grade curriculum that Islam is an evil religion and Muslims are evil

The Supreme Court seems ready to say that Maine must subsidize this type of education just because it also subsidizes secular private education

Posted about it yesterday.

Their defense is essentially that Maine is discriminating against religious institutions for their discriminatory practices.

It's essentially saying that states must tolerate intolerance, and it's the basic defense for a lot of cases that are being pushed in front of the conservative SC.

It's all ********.

What a piece of ****

Joe Manchin sounds fed up with Biden's spending plans: 'We've done everything that we can to help people'

Manchin may halt passage of Biden's $2 trillion social and climate spending plan this month. He told Insider the government's already spent a lot.

www.businessinsider.com

Sen. Joe Manchin of West Virginia, a crucial swing vote, doesn't sound like he'll give the green light to President Joe Biden's planned $2 trillion social and climate spending plan anytime soon.

Earlier in the summer, he urged a "strategic pause" on moving ahead with the sprawling bill. At the time, he cited a spike in COVID-19 infections and the US withdrawal from Afghanistan as more urgent priorities for Congress to address. Now, Manchin is railing against inflation and rising prices.

Meanwhile, Democrats are increasingly alarmed about the prospect of an abrupt cutoff of monthly child tax credit checks flowing to millions of families. The last payment is set to be issued on December 15. Experts say a lapse would hit kids from low-income families hard because they would be shut out from receiving aid. It would also no longer come in monthly installments.

Around 346,000 kids in West Virginia could lose some or all the federal aid, per an analysis from the left-leaning Center on Budget and Policy Priorities.

On Wednesday, Manchin sounded fed up with the concept of additional federal spending.

"We're doing an awful lot," the West Virginia Democrat told Insider. "We did an expansion of SNAP. We've done everything that we can to help people — we sent out $5.4 trillion in aid."

He went on: "And there's an awful lot of things we've done that's been very good that will continue on into 2022."

At Capitol Hill, Manchin pulled out a small white card that listed both bipartisan and Democratic-only achievements and argued that his party hadn't touted them enough. They included the recent $550 billion infrastructure law and the $1.9 trillion stimulus law; the latter passed with only Democratic votes.

The card also said Congress had authorized $6.6 trillion in extra federal spending in the last 20 months. Most of that sum was devoted to combating the pandemic through small business aid, direct payments, federal unemployment benefits and emergency health spending.

Manchin poured cold water on passing the bill anytime soon, saying much of the bill needed to be "scrubbed" so it complies with Senate rules and large parts were still being negotiated.

That's not deterring Senate Majority Leader Chuck Schumer from standing by his December 25 deadline. All 50 Senate Democrats must coalesce around the legislation so it can pass over unanimous GOP opposition. Manchin's resistance alone could therefore delay or sink the measure.

"We continue to make good progress and we're still on track to vote on a final product before Christmas," he said on the Senate floor on Wednesday. "The sooner we can pass Build Back Better, the better off American families will be as we start the New Year."

JOEYYYYYYYYYY MANCHINNNNNNNNNNNN!!!!!!!!!!!!!
