It's hard for me to understand not gaf about anything other than your own wealth. I guess I'm just wired differently than guys like that.
@Nook @glynch there is almost zero support for Israel in the democratic caucus. I never thought I'd see Israeli standing in the party implode so quickly. Bibi overplayed his hand and the consequences will be devastating
@Space Ghost admitted his health insurance went up under Trump so it's not like he's doing it for financial reasons. He's just a brainwashed individual like @Salvy who have been gaslight by social media into obsessing over culture wars. The billionaires sit back and laugh at these folks for fighting so hard for them LOL @ being pro bitcoin. Bitcoin is down 27% under Trump cuz he's too busy running crypto scams sucking the liquidity out of the crypto market. He's scammed crypto investors out of tens of billions which otherwise would've gone to legit projects like bitcoin. It's hilarious you pretending you like Trump for reasons other than you've been brainwashed by Twitter. You stand for nothing [
Ossoff has been on point lately. He's about as good a messenger as Dems have. Plus, he has presidential potential. Repubs should be doing everything they can to defeat him in this year's senate race. It looks like his opponent will be Mike Collins, a current House member. Collins should beat failson football coach Derek Dooley and fellow House member Buddy Carter in next month's primary. That said, Dooley may be able to force a runoff which would keep the primary going into June and set up a battle between hard-core MAGA and the Kemp machine. Meanwhile, Ossoff has been raising money quite well and campaigning all over the state.
Americans oppose his war! He doesn't care. His ratings keep plunging and he knows it. Trump's gone full board spewing election lies and conspiracy theories now, and already trying desperately to rig the midterms and brainwash his cult. He is desperate to spin back to election lies again. He knows he and the party are facing big upsets in the midterms. He's posted 71 times in the past 24 hours. What a lying pathetic loser.
The brazen lack of shame from the republican pollsters here in VA has been something to behold. They're trying to sell the idea of democratic integrity while simultaneously supporting the most undemocratic regime in history. Truly craven. Reminds me of the simultaneous "stop/start the count!" protests in 2020. You play the game you're in, not the game you want. Now that democrats are finally understanding this and fighting back suddenly it's all pearl clutching and "muh norms". The funny thing is, if this was a republican amendment, it would probably be permanent lol. At least democrats are adult enough to keep it temporary.
https://bsky.app/profile/rincewind.run/post/3mk2aue774s2i The VA dems of yesteryear would never have gone for this. 12 years of Trumpism pushed all these normies past the brink. Game on, ****ers.
Dems have finally dropped the “when they go low, we go high” bullsh*t nah, when these devils go low, you take it to the floor with them and kick their face in
At the house, I got 10 flyers from the Rs with women and minorities on it saying that gerrymandering is bad, bad, bad. OTOH I got 2 flyers supporting the temporary gerrymander from the Ds, one with Governor Abigail Spanberger and one with Obama on it. The Rs message is ... gerrymandering is only great when it favors the Rs otherwise it is bad, bad, bad. As usual, the Rs have no shame (and never have) and are only all about winning (and giving tax breaks to the top 1%).
Just 6 years ago, VA voters approved a constitutional amendment creating a bipartisan redistricting commission, with 65% in favor. That margin shows just how strongly Virginians wanted to curb gerrymandering. Yet yesterday they temporarily abandoned that principle, approving maximum partisan gerrymandering themselves. That tells you everything about how furious they are with the MAGA plan to rig the midterms.
Texas redistricts without a vote, Republicans cheer. The Rs are rn fearing that the Trump ordered Texas gerrymander might back fire. Everything Trump Touches Dies.
This result is within the expected outcomes of politically terrorizing northern Virginia for over a year. Turns out there's still some juice in the Virginia state flag.
They got high on their own supply after the RGV 2024 over performance and now Talarico ran up "Assad in Syria" margins there in the primary. Maybe showing their ass to voters who just bought into what they were selling was a bad idea.
