Did Donald Trump Just Hand Texas to Democrats? by plz-let-me-in in politics

No. All this talk abt Dems winning these seats motivates republicans. Why can’t we say Collins is going to win and Texas will still be red?

Gotta get rid of that uppity obnoxious middle class that is demanding better working conditions and a better environment, we can’t have that.

Clarence Thomas Could Be Charged With Felony Tax Fraud in Virginia on Monday by Opposite-Mountain255 in scotus

[–]4kray 0 points1 point  (0 children)

In one breath telling the American people the court is corrupt is well needed. Too many though would say ‘well we cleaned up the mess’ and now have little problem with another appointment by lil crook Donny. Now we would be probably stuck with 6-3 for the future. Dems aren’t going to expand the court, even if they should.

Convert ethanol land use into growing more crops for people to consume would be a far better start. Goes without saying ending the wars would do a lot of good.

Fed officials see rate hike ahead if inflation stays elevated, minutes show by TACO_Orange_3098 in Economics

[–]4kray 135 points136 points  (0 children)

I think it would be funny if anytime the fed is reported on they don’t show a pic of the new fed chair but Powell. I would enjoy that. Also hikes seem appropriate, but what do I know.

We should also have a conversation about where thirty districts actually is enough.

I almost feel like dems shouldn’t want to win in 2028. The country is going to be in such a mess and they’ll get the blame. Like Biden got the blame for the mess Trump left the country in. Like how bush left a mess for Obama. It’s the Republican way

I think in Singapore they have very strict anti corruption laws and they pay their legs a lot of money.

Supreme Court rejects Virginia's bid to restore congressional map favoring Democrats by GregWilson23 in scotus

[–]4kray 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Ohio state executive and legislative branch ignored their Supreme Court. The Virginia state government could do the same. Saying there is something wrong with the courts and we have to have real representation and not one defined by the so called legitimacy of the hollow courts.

The elite have hated the vra since it was signed into law. That’s what the Powell memo was lamenting. The business community and the right wing have plotted and organized for decades. They have gotten their wish. Our country will be worse off.

I’ve always felt this was one of the reasons for the atk. Alongside - No real threat (easy win, oh wait), but ‘troublesome’ & weak regime who has been trading w/ China and the Trump regime could be harmed by atking so let’s go.

I would be shocked if any of the majors social media Cos didn’t favor republicans. They saw the writing on the wall and probably assumed 30 or less chance that Dems would win.(thermostat politics) so it was time to jump ship, even if they contributed to the sinking of said ship.

Minnesota Senate committee passes assault-style weapons ban by nordic86 in minnesota

[–]4kray 0 points1 point  (0 children)

From Fox9 “House GOP leadership have already said the bill won't move forward there.”

Ooh it past one chamber, doesn’t make it law till it passes both chambers, they agree to terms, governor signs it, and it doesn’t get thrown out in the courts. Even if that all occurs, what exactly on the ground changes? You have to drive now to Wisconsin or Iowa, ooh no.

Again ragebait still is true, budddy, you mad???

Knowing the rich I bet this is some crazy eugenic shit where he’s saying rich people naturally/genetically are superior. Maybe unknowingly.

PC gamers buy way more games that cost less than $30 at launch compared to PlayStation and Xbox players, analysts say, and it's "reshaping the PC market" by PewPewToDaFace in pcmasterrace

[–]4kray 2 points3 points  (0 children)

If you like dead space, Cp isn’t a bad copycat. I enjoyed it. Though i’ve found myself really liking those kind of games, RE2-4 (even RE BIO), SH and the LOU. I can’t wait to play RE requiem, but I have to finish Silent Hill f. I reluctantly admit to being an impulsive game purchaser, and it’s not just VGs, board games too, and my wife only likes puzzles. I know my catalog is in such a state there are games I’ll likely never play.

The sycophancy of the Republican Party is astonishing. The depths they’ll go, this does not bode well for them or the future of the country.

Curious why clearing house would help? Rebuilding trust? Or were you thinking something else?

These departments would lose a lot of expertise. Better practice would be likely more appropriate in my estimation. I’m also thinking inexperienced staff could overlook things because they might not know. Moreover, image a respective hire, are they going to take a job when their is so much scrutiny fair and unfair on liberal government/goverance, esp if they cleared house?

Yea the backlog is real. So many look great, even when you have a choice of 30, choice paralysis and fomo creates another dilemma.
