“And while all the grownups are busy freaking out about the erosion of norms and the rank partisanship crippling our democracy, we'll steal all the candy!”
Four things to ensure American democracy:
1. Add 50 US senators, so every state elects one every 2 years
2. Define-Combine Redistricting: https://t.co/i9DSbRZCNW
3. Approval Voting: https://t.co/rpsN6lAb4K
4. Increase House size by ∛ of population: https://t.co/mdY6pXCtkS
It'd be nice to have a Speaker who'd say: "And let them, we have nothing to hide, and they'll look like fools for doing it."
But what he's saying here is: They're gonna uncover a lot of stuff, and you don't want that.
Massie: "I think it's ironic that we control the House, Senate, Supreme Court, and the White House, and we're yelling 'election fraud'? I mean, we won all the damn elections."
JD Vance: "I think Nixon's historical legacy is enjoying a bit of a renaissance, and deservedly so. I joked that if Watergate happened tomorrow, it would be like a 12 hours news story. The idea that it took down a presidency is crazy."
@skweeds My grandfather — a Forest Service ranger — led a Civilian Conservation Corps unit during the Depression that, among other things, fought erosion throughout the South by planting kudzu.
Then he spent the rest of his career trying to eradicate it from US Forests.
@NPomerantzeff@LinkofSunshine Oh, was Biden talking about the 250th celebration? Was he actually talking about “half the country”? No and no. See, you’re ahistorical, so we don’t even know what we’re supposed to be celebrating with people like you.
The United States of America's Government's official opening remarks for the 250th birthday of America included the word "libtard," and people are surprised that we haven't come together in unity to celebrate
@RailoDef@JamieBonkiewicz You can't cite a single example. But you also can't believe your cult would lie to you. It must be a painful contradiction to live with.
So an Antifa scuba diver with a box cutter snuck into the Reflecting Pond to cut a 300 foot section out while evading all cameras and law enforcement in order to sabotage Trump.
Do I have that right?

@TerryMoran There’s something in Brutalism that appeals to the ego of both the architect and the builder, it seems. It’s the desire to leave something big enough to be visible on the timeline of history, I think.
@MplsBarry@ChristopherHale I’ve met several people who sold or programmed mainframe computers who were consistently flummoxed and frustrated with MS Windows. Because, well…Windows.
