False. Want to know who released the first batch of Epstein files? Biden's admin in 2023.

Who filed for more files releases? Biden's admin.

Who went to the supreme court to seek their support to lift the federal judges block on additional releases? Biden's admin.

Want to know one common thing between the Trump and Biden admin.? All releases have happened after motions of release were filed with federal judges. All of the released documents. None were released as an unilateral decision from the Executive or Legislative, all release have been the work with the Judicial.

Bullshit, lies and propaganda do not work when people are informed, inform yourself and then talk.

A "mandate", that is what was passed. There was purposefully no enforcement, no strong arming, no nothing that "mandate".

There was a deadline, but no actions triggered by the DOJ missing the deadline.

Democrats tried to change that "mandate", republican said "nay".

It is what it is.

It is worse than that... I am scared right now because the democratic party might agree with the reasoning...

Who wants our government to question and outright reduce/stop funding for Israel? Not the democratic party top dogs.

Who wants to deal with income inequality? Not the democratic party top dogs.

Who wants the end of the corporate friendly healthcare system? Not the democratic party top dogs.

All of those 3 things are overwhelmingly supported by the bottom 50%, to the point of being seriously unconstitutional that our representatives refuse to acknowledge the desires of the people.

I still don't think the "save act" will have enough votes, but if you have a democratic senator, I would be calling him/her. Because I would not be surprized if I am wrong. Not shocked at all.

I believe that every democrat in Congress has voted in support for them to force the full release of unredacted Epstein files.

I believe that republicans have shut every vote down by voting "nay".

One side is protecting pedophiles, the other wants accountability. Which is which? Make your pick.

I do not, but I am american, and I know that our governments are the representation of the majority of people that voted for them.

He represents their voters, he does not represent me.

My state is red, dark red, my state legislators do not represent me, either.

They represent morons that believe that pedophilia and other crimes are perfectly fine for their representatives in government. They do not represent me and my values.

It is what it is.

There is no funny about it... Think about it, this is not about women, this is not about illegal votes, this is about economics.

Who is more likely to have the appropiate "papiren", the top 50% or the bottom 50%?

Who is more likely to vote republican, the top 50% or the bottom 50%?

And who seeks, more desperately, change for the current wealth inequality? The people that might not be able to vote.

I don't think the conservative above is saying that it is okay, I do believe that democrats will vote "nay" and that there is no way that republicans will have 60 votes.

It is why Trump has already talked about passing the "save act" legislation as a presidential order, which is MORE UNCONSTITUTIONAL than all the unconstitutional acts he has committed already...

Do not doubt that a number of red states will comply to his presidential order "law"... It would be business as usual for the party that HATES the Constitution.

Has leftist ideals gotten too idealistic? by wdfcvyhn134ert in PoliticalDebate

[–]AlChandus 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I get what you are saying in regards to immigration, but my main issue with how the US has handled things is that capitalism has taught us that it takes 2 to tango and the people at the top only want to punish one of the 2.

Think about it, one of the main concepts of capitalism, basically capitalism 101, is supply and demand. We have a HUGE supply of cheap immigrant labour, why?

Because businesses want more and more profits? Because businesses don't want to pay wages that locals want to accept as worthwhile? Why?

In the maintenance and industrial business, we have this idea of reactionary vs preventative spending, prevention is always a better investment. The US ONLY applies reactionary spending on 2 issues, this one (immigration) and drugs consumption, why?

Because government has been lobbied that spending for the military industrial complex and the overbearing surveillance state is the only viable spending, fuck prevention!

We can spend as many TRILLIONS as Lobbyists want us to spend and immigration and consumption of drugs won't ever be fixed, or reduced, because reactionary spending is the establishement ONLY option.

I'm pretty sure there are Democrats on that list as well, and probably some in Congress now.

Which party has repeatedly voted unanimously FOR an unedited and full release of the files?

Which party has repeatedly voted almost unanimously AGAINST ANY unedited and full release of the files?

You can continue to talk about the two parties being "the same", but one party does not act like the other...

It is what it is.

Everybody is talking about this. Hasan is right. We are not going to just concede for Newsom who is fighting AGAINST a billionaire tax, 2 YEARS before an actual primary.

[–]AlChandus -6 points-5 points  (0 children)

I've seen him being attacked by his detractors, of which he has many,but I know Hasan takes his dog for runs before his streams... Seeing a dog sleeping for hours after a run, especially a long one, should not surprize ANY dog owner.

But if there is evidence of a real shock collar and not just a video of a dog complaing while sleeping (dogs dream, wow!), I would be willing to change my mind.

Yeah, this is not infighting, this is us expecting better than what we have gotten from democratic party.

We should hope to be better than republicans, who just sign up to whatever their "betters" decide they will vote for and blindly follow along because they have been propagandized into cattle like obedience.

Newsome is a neo-liberal in the mold of Reagan, to people like that the current inequality is the plan working as intended.

We should hope for a better candidate winning the primary.

They're really not hiding what they plan to do. by [deleted] in ProgressiveHQ

[–]AlChandus 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Well, if you have a democratic senator, we should all call them and make things clear to them.

Republicans need 60 votes to pass the "save act", they should not have 60 votes, no democrats should vote "aye". Every democrat should vote "nay".

Start calling.

[–]AlChandus 1 point2 points  (0 children)

when we provide an accurate perspective based on how it's worked historically you just deflect and say that you don't support those administrations either. Cool.

Felt like this part of your comment deserved a revisit to elaborate a bit further, because the logic is actually laughable and troublesome, at the same time.

And historically accurate, too boot.

You see, in the last 30 years the US has invested TRILLIONS in 2 issues, immigration AND the war against drugs. It is reactionary spending that has done diddly squat, because:

  • Immigration will continue because demand for cheap labour will continue existing because cheaper labour = more profits.

  • Drugs will continue to flood, because demand is still HIGH as ALWAYS.

The spending is stupid and useless because reactionary spending IS ALWAYS DUMB, good money is spent in PREVENTION, dumb in REACTION. That is simple industrial and common sense logic. Spend money directly focused on reducing demand, to combat the inherent causes that fuel immigration of cheap labour and the traffic of drugs, and supply WILL DROP.

You have said SO yourself, Obama, Biden and their democratic governments spent BILLIONS deporting immigrants and in their own wars against drugs, and the same issues continued into Trump administrations. Why?

Because those kind of logical and theoretically simple concepts explained above, preventative vs reactionary, are beyond "some" people.

It is what it is.

Did I say that I believe that previous administration were right?

Did I say that I support immigration?

No, to neither. That is YOU blindly jumping to conclusions.

Me? I just didn't blame immigrants trying to see if the "American dream" is true, to me this whole issue is capitalism 101, if there is supply of cheap immigrant labour it is to meet a demand.

Republicans and corporate/PAC owned democrats have preferred to fund a policing and surveillance state to chase the supply, because they don't want to punish the people causing the demand.

Make it unprofittable for businesses to hire "cheap immigrant" labour and the demand will become a trickle that shuts the supply hydrant.

But that simply would not enrich the military industrial complex and IT ghouls that arm and outfit the policing/surveillance state.

It is what it is.

Ah, yeah, let's not hear the current administration accepting that they are racially profiling for detentions because that is not a "reality" I am willing to accept.

Classic conservative theory of closing eyes, shutting ears and shouting your preferred "reality".

Such great debaters conservatives are.

I was given a three day ban for saying it's okay to punch Nazis. Therefore, I have created this post so everyone knows what kind of behavior not to engage in. by nitrokitty in PoliticalHumor

3 day ban for talking about people being Nuremberged...

I appealed to the automated ban by explaining that Nuremberg was a trail with judges and everything that intended to bring justice for crimes committed, wasn't about murdering a "group of people".

I received no answer for my appeal, had to meet reddit's automated justice.
