  1. It took two years before anyone within Nixon's orbit were indicted and it still hadn't reached Nixon yet. Nixon was going to get indicted if he hadn't been pardoned. Watergate pales in comparison to this insurrection. There have already been 800 arrests. People need to calm down. My concern is a Republican will win in 2024 because Democrats are still throwing their tantrum and that president will pardon Trump and everyone who kept quiet.
  2. There's some interesting parallels between Bernie Bros and Trumpers. Trump lost the election because it was rigged in cities like Detroit, Philadelphia and Milwaukee. All majority black cities where Trump got crushed. Hillary won the primary because she destroyed Bernie in the black vote primarily in the south. The white Bernie Bros cry it's rigged.
  3. Meanwhile, as they say, there is no honor amongst thieves.
  4. I keep going back to that seen in the desert from Breaking Bad. Saul said it wasn't me it was Ignacio and didn't Lalo send you. We know now what he means by it wasn't me it was Ignacio and who Lalo is. Seems the natural point to introduce Walt and Jesse. I don't think we are that far before Breaking Bad. Saul didn't enter Breaking Bad until season two after Walt and Jesse had their run in with Tuco and went out on their own.
  5. Good night. Feel free to use the ignore feature in the future.
  6. How does he saber rattle a senator from West Virginia where Trump won by 30 points? Going out and voting is the only solution. Congress has already come up with a bill to codify Roe that has passed the house. They just need a couple more senators to get it across the finish line. Instead, we just want Biden to saber rattle.
  7. What is it? He's telling voters what they need to do. He has supported carving out the filibuster to codify Roe. He has called out this Supreme Court. What else is he suppose to do?
  8. It's ironic that Democrats want a liberal Trump.
  9. The narrative that he has to do more is coming from his own party. He has to deal with friendly fire because a bunch of entitled, mostly progressives, are throwing a temper tantrum. This circular firing squad is muddying the waters. He has said rather forcefully to codify Roe and to carve out the filibuster. The fact is, the Democrats need more senators in the senate and there is a bunch of entitled liberals who don't want to hear that and focus their efforts on getting more Democrats elected. It's becoming a repeat of 2016.
  10. Trump got fewer votes than Romney in Michigan and Wisconsin. Only Pennsylvania did he do better than Romney. Jill Stein also got significantly more votes in those three states than she did in 2012. Stein got 30,000 more votes in Michigan in 2016 than 2012 and 24,000 more votes in Wisconsin than in 2012. Those difference are greater than the margins Trump won by. I'll go out on a limb and say those where Obama to Stein voters than Romney to Stein voters. She also got 38,000 more votes in 2016 in Pennsylvania and the margin was 44,000. I really hope those protest votes for Stein accomplished what the voter wanted.
  11. Hillary got over 300,000 less votes in Michigan and Wisconsin than Obama in 2012 and about 75,000 less in Pennsylvania. All those would have more than covered the margin Trump won by
  12. She didn't get more votes. She got about 62,000 less and that was almost the difference between her winning and losing.
  13. Ah yes, more of the OMG do something. Republicans got Roe overturned because they won elections and stayed focus. It took decades and 6 years after Trump first got elected. The answer is to elect more Democrats who support codifying Roe and craving out the filibuster. What is the president suppose to do? As a white male I say fuck it let the Republicans win. It affects me less than others. I didn't blame Hilary. I blame all the entitled Democrats who threw a temper tantrum and didn't vote in 2016. They didn't take the Supreme Court seriously and now that we are faced with the consequences it's just do something.
  14. You are aware that the president doesn't control the filibuster? That Biden has called for a carve out of the filibuster? What exactly is he suppose to work on? How does he compel a senator from West Virginia where Trump won by 30 to carve out the filibuster? 267 out of 269 Democrats in the house and senate voted to codify Roe. That simply isn't enough votes. Biden has said they need more votes. People don't want to hear that. What's going to happen is this circular firing squad on Democrats by Democrats is going to lead to Republicans controlling all three branches. It happened in 2016 and it's going to happen in 2024.
  15. McConnell held a Supreme Court seat hostage for 9 months. Hillary literally told us Roe was on the ballot. Progressives never cared about the Supreme Court until we are faced with the consequences and now they want Biden to "do something" as if a president can just overturn a Supreme Court decision.
  16. Does North Carolina still have those potty laws? Just wait until a Republican becomes governor again and returns North Carolina to the confederacy.
  17. Best I can find is that about 4,000 people migrate to North Carolina on average which is about 0.001% of California's population. Doesn't seem some large migration to North Carolina from California. That assumes no one moved from North Carolina to California.
  18. California has a progressive income tax. Single tax filers making $35,000 and under pay 4% from income between $22k and $35k. If there was a flat 4%, single filers making roughly $65,000 and less would receive a tax increase with the poorest receiving the largest increase. The wealthiest would receive the largest tax decrease. What do we expect Elon Musk and Lebron James to do with their new found tax decreases on personal income tax? When are we going to be done with this trickle down bs?
  19. In other words you want California to raise taxes on the poor and cut taxes on the wealthy.
  20. A surplus this large is likely to be a one time thing so essentially they are giving a tax cut. What is more beneficial than a tax cut is California becoming the first state in the country to provide its citizens with universal health care and manufacture and sell insulin near cost.
  21. Ohhh before election day. The Republicans may have had a chance of winning California if not for some checks.
  22. What is happening is California is providing its citizens with health care and insulin.
