  1. And these folks you've seen pictured are from the daytime, when a casual observation tells you the real "fun" has been at night
  2. So since what Kasich has done is ok and allows him a platform at the DNC so long as it's in the name of "Joe Biden it's a good dude" messaging, can we get GWB up there too? Dick Cheney?
  3. I'm not surprised, no one here is. Don't have to be surprised to hate it
  4. He shouldn't be speaking at the convention, full stop. Take his endorsement, sure, but the man shouldn't be sharing a (virtual) stage with any teachers, or anyone from the pro choice movement. It's a fucking insult to the party. He shut down half of Ohio's abortion clinics and tried to disband the teachers union in Ohio and slashed billions from Ohio schools. Don't forget telling LGBT folks to "get over" discrimination. Not worth sharing the floor with him! If we don't stand for these things at minimum what the fuck is the point of the party? What is he actually bringing to the table but a fuck load of baggage?
  5. I mean if they'd clear all business for an RBG replacement, they can do so to ensure one seat always stays with the reactionaries. It's all they want or need!
  6. https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Sonia_Sotomayor_Supreme_Court_nomination Think Mitch can't beat this timeframe by about two weeks? He's done one thing well, and one thing only, and that's appoint marginally to unqualified judges to the court for life
  7. I fully get that primary voters don't identify with the left wing of the party, despite actual stated positions and polling on individual issues, and wanted an actual Democrat (not independent who caucuses with them) who voters thought could beat trump. Thomas's successor would get confirmed between Nov 4 and Dec 31. Plenty of time to push a 35 year old Federalist Society goon on to the high court for life.
  8. No one cares what Kasich has to say except like Brett Stephens. Don't have to give him a spot at the eDNC. No. Good. Republicans. Quote me now: if Nov 4 rolls around and it's clear there's a Biden wins and the senate will not be republican, Thomas will immediately retire. He and his wife are too active in conservative DC circles for this not to happen
  9. We've normalized thousands of Americans dieing every single week, for the past 12+ weeks is the point but it's not a great example to use planes
  10. I mean my God, they used a little bit of rioting, and one burned police precinct (that they withdrew from mind you) from back in May as justification for weeks of wanton flashbangs and tear gassing of unarmed protestors. Do you seriously think that they wouldn't take a cadre of armed Black Panthers, as an example, to stop gassing and using flash bangs? Hell no, they'd see it as proof of actual revolutionary intent! And the state would not let that happen, especially not for a black-led movement.
  11. Or they'd use the arms as justification to up the ante. You need to explain the ideological / racial / socioeconomic links between state security forces / state security personnel and the responses of state violence towards someone like the Bundy's vs the response to largely non-white and largely nonviolent protestors. Hint: one is actually challenging power structures and one was looking to fundamentally uphold the status quo and their own favored status
  12. Absolutely. He's a full on douchebag who has such an anger management problem he got a Politico write up on how he's working on getting it under control before his 2016 run lol Ohioans: not that smart (they're still in Ohio!)
  13. Lmao thinking a gun will be able to protect you if the state really comes knocking
  14. All* are welcome here *Provided you can afford to live here, so you're probably white anyway
