They held up little signs, begged for bipartisanship, and voted for Republican only written bills. I mean what more do you want from them!

Sorry, they're too busy trying to stop David Hogg.

They won't because republicans even if they form a dictatorship are less a threat to their interests and goals than the alternative.

To employ the crude vernacular, no Democrat has the requisite reproductive organs necessary to solve MAGA, either testicles or ovaries.

what are boobs if not balls for the chest? chesticles if you will, and what are balls, if not the small wrickly dangly boobs between your legs.

The DNC needs to go, it isn't reformable

This is true of both parties, and our two party system.

Drag the FBI director in front of Congress

Interesting, I'd never seen that spelling of "a fucking firing squad".

As long as it's public, whatever floats your boat.

The fascists need to be scared. It's okay to show them why in the middle of times square.

What for just to drill him then give him a pass.

[-] Jarix@lemmy.world 5 points 1 week ago

If that's what happens then so be it, but it's still worth doing for the sake of doing.

Also it would highlight the complicity of others so i think the value is still there....even if/when they give him a pass

you can't use rule of law to stop rule of man

that just doesn't work; and when it fails one ends up with some version of the plot from Seven Against Thebes

To do this successfully, Democrats would have to abandon the corrupting influence of corporate PAC donations and actually work towards improving the material living conditions of the working class. Not just say some of the right things on the campaign trial, but actually fight for and pass real legislation.

I’m sorry, but the current elected officials simply aren’t going to do that. We have to replace them first to have any hope, and it’s going to take time to do so unfortunately.

[-] HubertManne@piefed.social 8 points 1 week ago

I have said it before but republicans need to become irrelevant to the point they change the party name again.

[-] technocrit@lemmy.dbzer0.com 6 points 1 week ago

Pretty sure they only need to cash their AIPAC/lobbying checks.

[-] Red_October@lemmy.world 5 points 1 week ago

And if Demoocrats won't, then the general population will need to do it.

Welcome to the discussion of US Politics!

Rules:

  1. Post only links to articles, Title must fairly describe link contents. If your title differs from the site’s, it should only be to add context or be more descriptive. Do not post entire articles in the body or in the comments.

Links must be to the original source, not an aggregator like Google Amp, MSN, or Yahoo.

Example:

  1. Articles must be relevant to politics. Links must be to quality and original content. Articles should be worth reading. Clickbait, stub articles, and rehosted or stolen content are not allowed. Check your source for Reliability and Bias here.
  2. Be civil, No violations of TOS. It’s OK to say the subject of an article is behaving like a (pejorative, pejorative). It’s NOT OK to say another USER is (pejorative). Strong language is fine, just not directed at other members. Engage in good-faith and with respect! This includes accusing another user of being a bot or paid actor. Trolling is uncivil and is grounds for removal and/or a community ban.
  3. No memes, trolling, or low-effort comments. Reposts, misinformation, off-topic, trolling, or offensive. Similarly, if you see posts along these lines, do not engage. Report them, block them, and live a happier life than they do. We see too many slapfights that boil down to "Mom! He's bugging me!" and "I'm not touching you!" Going forward, slapfights will result in removed comments and temp bans to cool off.
  4. Vote based on comment quality, not agreement. This community aims to foster discussion; please reward people for putting effort into articulating their viewpoint, even if you disagree with it.
  5. No hate speech, slurs, celebrating death, advocating violence, or abusive language. This will result in a ban. Usernames containing racist, or inappropriate slurs will be banned without warning

We ask that the users report any comment or post that violate the rules, to use critical thinking when reading, posting or commenting. Users that post off-topic spam, advocate violence, have multiple comments or posts removed, weaponize reports or violate the code of conduct will be banned.

All posts and comments will be reviewed on a case-by-case basis. This means that some content that violates the rules may be allowed, while other content that does not violate the rules may be removed. The moderators retain the right to remove any content and ban users.

That's all the rules!
