They could have voted to impeach recently, instead they chose to normalize the president not needing approval to do acts of war.

And before that there was the budget.

And before that they censured Al Green.

And before that they approved Trump's nominees.

But yeah, Democrats are totally powerless to do anything. I'm sure that will convince people they're worth their time.

A bad analogy is a license to be pedantic.

It's not like the Nazis ever received the majority of the votes. Funny to see us blaming the votes of that time.

Live by the sword, die by the sword. We let Gazan children die because of who their parents voted for. I'm not saying two wrong make a right but that doing what is right starts with us.

My children are 22, 25, and 27. I will literally fight ANYONE for their future

Translation: promote them out of harms way and MTG will fall in line.

File this under: never expect someone who is misled to learn the right lesson, ever.

It kind of does though? It is like the inverse of the Nazis at a table story. If a Nazi stands at the door to keep Jews out and liberals are inside dining but don't ever talk about the Jews or invite a Jewish person in then it really does call into question what they are against the Nazis for.

I’m more concerned about actual effects on the world right now, legality has been irrelevant for 50+ years.

And you don't see the two as connected? A fucking mazing.

The context was us asking for Palestinian or queer voices to be part of the campaign, and we got a neocon instead. We could have had "all of the above" but they were only interested in inviting those further on the right.

Then Congress should declare war per the constitution. Or do we not care about due process as long as it hurts the people we think are evil?

What, they couldn't get Liz Cheney's endorsement? These people are so out of touch...
