  1. I think we're getting close to seeing Walt and Jesse, I'm guessing by the first half finale. In Breaking Bad, when Walt and Jesse kidnap Saul, he says it was Ignacio referring to helping set up Lalo. Kim knows Lalo is still alive. Saul probably finds out as well and assumes he is being kidnapped by the Salamancas. I have to go back to Breaking Bad but I believe Saul mentions the Salamancas in that scene. We may even see Badger before. I'm not sure if it was ever mentioned in Breaking Bad if Jesse actually met with Saul prior to that kidnapping or he just of heard of Saul through his friends.
  2. It's not just senate representation. Lets look at the house. Wyoming has one congressman and a population of 576,000. California has 52 congressional districts. Whoa, that sounds like a lot but the average size of a district in California is 750,000. If California were divided up into districts of 576,000, it would have 68 congressional districts. But what about Texas you extreme liberal? Well of course Texas would have roughly 51 congressional districts vs 38, however, Trump only won Texas by 6 points. Biden won California by 29 points. If you start divided Texas up into more districts you will end up with more Democrats. It's why Texas deliberately wanted to undercount it's own population in the state. The Republicans are so desperate to maintain power that they would intentionally forfeit seats because they cannot gerrymander many more districts. Rigged system.
  3. Lets also not forget the filibuster that the Republicans say should not be removed but was removed for Supreme Court justices because it was more valuable for the Republicans to pack the court with conservative judges. Now they have a conservative court for at least another generation or two and will legislate through the courts. That's a rigged system.
  4. Another thing to point out is Republican states that are losing their grip such as Georgia and Texas are making it more difficult for Democrats to win and take over. They are trying to suppress the vote so they do not lose their stranglehold on them.
  5. When it goes off the rails, I hope California secedes from the union and takes it's 5th largest economy in the world with it. If I'm still alive I'll seek asylum in California.
  6. Yes the electoral system is flawed because the minority party has too much control. You tell us to vote and we did and our candidate got 3 million more votes and still lost. We have Washington DC that has more people than Wyoming, Vermont and Alaska but no senate representation. We can't make them a state and get two more senators because the system allows a minority party to block it. Democrats in the senate represent 43 million more people than Republicans but have the same number of senators. Our electoral system punishes us because Democrats are clustered in cities on the coasts. It is an antiquated system and Republicans will refuse to change it because they are the minority party and would have to give up all their control if they changed.
  7. A system in which a candidate receives 3 million fewer votes and still wins the election is rigged. A system in which California accounts for 12% of the US population and Wyoming accounts for 0.1% and both have the same 2% representation in the senate is rigged. Republicans haven't represented a majority of the population in the senate since 1996 but have held the majority in the senate 14 years since 1996. All 5 justices overturning Roe were confirmed by a majority Republican senate that did not represent the majority of Americans. That is rigged. Donald Trump lying about unfounded conspiracy theories that the election was stolen is not rigged. The Democrats currently represent 56% of Americans but only hold 50% of the seats. They'd won the popular vote in 7 of the past 8 elections but only won 5 of them. Joe Biden won by 7 million votes but the election really came down to less than 100,000 votes. These are facts and not conspiracies theories. Both sides are not a like on this.
  8. Nakobe Dean is the same size and people wanted to draft him in the 2nd round and weren't calling him just a special teamer.
  9. There is so much wrong here. First the borders are not open, second Democrats aren't the ones who complain about being a drag on the welfare system. In fact, it was Republicans, plus Manchin, who killed the child tax credit. It's Democrats who want paid maternity leave. It's Democrats who want paid college education. It's Democrats who want more assistance for single mothers. Democrats are merely pointing out the rank hypocrisy that the Republicans are pro birth. The Republicans are the ones who claimed the election was fraudulent and mounted an insurrection on the capitol. Four of the five justices overturning Roe were appointed by Republicans who lost the popular vote and confirmed by senators who represented fewer people than the senators who did not choose to confirm them. A minority in government put in place the people to overturn Roe.
  10. And it isn't just taxes. The mother should be able to take out a life insurance policy on the fetus. The age where one become an adult would then be 17 years and 3 months.
  11. For the record I do not believe a fetus should be claimed as a dependent. That just seems like the next logical step if you consider it a baby and consider it murder punishable by life in prison or worse for having an abortion.
  12. I'm guessing these pro life people forcing birth won't support government paid maternity leave. That's the extreme left.
  13. That's not all the Democrats position. They aren't forcing anyone to get an abortion.
  14. Republicans making the US more like China. You really got me there.
  15. Innocent babies that somehow don't have the rights as babies. As soon as a woman is pregnant, the state should issue a birth certificate and she should be able to claim that baby on income tax. Anyways, I would argue that an embryo isn't an innocent baby.
  16. I respect his views and he's absolutely free to not take part in an abortion and no one is forcing his wife/gf to get an abortion. Unfortunately, people with his views are forcing women to birth children that may kill them.
  17. How come women can't get life insurance policies on these babies? Or claim them as dependents on their income tax?
  18. Why would you pay for Youtube TV? What was being provided on Youtube TV that wasn't on the Directv stream? I have DIrectv Stream and I'm not sure I'm missing anything from Youtube TV.
  19. I find Al Bundy to be the perfect character to play Donald Sterling.
  20. He was one of three who running for three positions. These are the types of people the Republicans are nominating for school boards and Democrats can't be bothered to run a single candidate.
  21. But Hillary Clinton called them deplorables. She's so extreme and no one on the left can reign her in.
