One Democrat vote was all it took to allow Republicans to stop a resolution to end Trump's illegal war on Iran. Whenever Dems want to do something their voters hate, they always find a few votes to make sure the terrible thing happens.
Funny, that.
Haven't y'all noticed that there are always JUST ENOUGH Party Traitors (sometimes Damnedocrats, sometimes Repugnicunts) to get something passed for The Rich, or defeated for The Poor? The US Government, in general, and Congress, in particular, is THE biggest scam being run on the American People.
@allOberTheWorld@SikhFeminist@ChuckModi1 You get what you can. The complete opposite of what you want or nothing at all. Nobody should be ok with that. That's how you get an oligarchy.
@allOberTheWorld@SikhFeminist@ChuckModi1 Doing the complete opposite of what she says she will do is not getting any policy people want. It is actively working against the people who voted for her.
“I fire 50-60 bullets every day, I've stopped counting kills. I have no idea how many I've killed, a lot. Children."
This is at an aid drop-off location
And every fucking day people defend this. from the average idiot on here to the most powerful politicians in the world.
Voters: We want Universal Healthcare
Democrats: Okay we'll do that
Healthcare Lobby: If you do that, the $20 -
$70 million we give you is cut off
Democrats: Whoah, we need that money. How about we allow most of the party to vote yes, but we get at least 3 dems to vote no so that it will fail, this way the heat is on those 3 democrats instead of the whole party. This way the party looks like we want to give it to the people, but we cant because those 3 Democrats stopped it.
@WazzupDoc7@LongTimeHistory In the full story there is a video, and it shows his birth certificate with some of his sensitive info blurred out. Also shows a social security card
Trump says openly what all previous President's tried to hide. The US government has no interest in the well being of the American worker. It exists to serve a tiny number of Wall Street parasites. The only difference is that Trump says this openly whereas the Democrats will lie to you about their intentions.
You cannot “antisemitism” your way out of committing genocide in Gaza and now displacing 1 million people in South Lebanon so you can steal their homeland. The state of Israel is the problem and there is nothing antisemitic about criticizing it.
The good news is the Republicans are on track to lose the midterms.
The bad news is the Democrats are on track to win the midterms.
This is the perpetual state of US politics where nothing ever gets better because the people can’t quit their addiction to the capitalist duopoly.
@JordanUhl If 3 Ds join it would be 213-218
If 2 Ds join it would be 214-217
If 1 Ds join it would be 215-216
If 0 Ds join it would be 216-215 = PASS
Funny how just enough Ds + a few to cover are always available to rotate in as villains & stop a bill 95% of D voters support
The House voted 357 - 65 to block the release of Congressional sexual misconduct reports.
182 Democrats & 175 Republicans voted to shield their misconduct from the public.
They want the Epstein files released but not the files on themselves released.
The entire system must go!
There is no opposition party in the U.S. government.
There is no working class party in the U.S. government.
There is no anti-war party in the U.S. government.
There is simply one dictatorship of capital with two imperialist wings.
Voting can’t change this but revolution can.
This war against Iran would have also happened under Kamala Harris. The only difference is liberals would be at brunch instead of foolishly bragging online that they voted for the blue imperialist party.
Isn't it interesting how quickly the citizens of Israel reach for their European/US passports and flee the country "God gave them," while Palestinians continue to live and rebuild their land, water their olive trees, no matter the scale of destruction.
