because its ultimately the exception, not the rule.

I think that's what makes it notable enough to be reported on?

I guess instead of reading a few books, we'll all just have to make the same mistakes that we've already made, again, in order to learn anything... Yeah sure, dude, let's start making people take tests before they can vote. What could go wrong?

It's two birds with one stone....

Yeah so ridiculous. It's not like Netanyahu's government has directly given Hamas aid in the form of literal cash.... Wait

How long before they straight up expel her? Or before someone gets violent with her on the House floor?

Wonder which will happen first.

No. He will gut the EPA if he doesn't kill it completely. It will be down to individual states to attempt to regulate that stuff, and even then, states already get a ton of their funding from the federal EPA, so they're all fucked when that money dries up.

So no more lead service line replacements. No more PFAS removal, no more water quality standards, no more air quality standards.... How long before the Potomac is on fire again...

Who needs clean drinking water, amirite?

Political capital is not relevant in a fascist autocracy. He will do what he wants.

It won't matter. He, and his cultists, will continue to claim otherwise.

They are already talking about putting people on antidepressants and ADHD meds into work camps. Madness.

My only hope is that they're getting too excited and giddy about finally realizing the fruits of decades of preparation, and just go way too far, way too fast, to the point where anyone outside the ~30% or so who actually want fascism (not just temporarily convinced that they do) is abruptly hit with the reality of their decision and wake the fuck up.

They can (and will) silence as much dissent as possible, but if they're able to make the response so overwhelming that the ~70% or so can, for once, unite against these cancerous fucks...

Not gonna hold my breath but...

Maybe if WW3 breaks out, Biden won't hand over power to the literal fascists that are already making decisions to cause our demise.
