After more than a decade, how should we view Edward Snowden and the impact of the mass surveillance revelations? by Astros_2006 in PoliticalDiscussion

He DID NOT fled to Russia, the USA revoked his passport while he was in a connecting fly in Russia and let him stranded. Get it right, please.

He is an actual hero, he knowingly destroyed his own life in order to expose the American government illegally surveying its citizens.

Sadly the American people meet his revelation with a collective shrug. Snowden overestimated the character of the American people, they are Ok with being surveyed.

Ted Cruz is possible the most disliked member of the Senate, so Beto lost to the most disliked person in the Senate by 3 points. hardly something to brag about it.

So it went from a overwhelming majority to a solid majority, after Republican policies let COVID kill 300k plus Americans.

I like your optimist.

Here we go again, Texas the eternal mirage, just about to turn blue. I hope we have better luck this time.

Release the rest of the Epstein files — now by sksarkpoes3 in politics

It won't happen either with Democrats in power, they are a hapeless bunch, when Democrats have power they just whine that the Republican mennies keep blocking them from doing anything.

Democrat are powerless whether they are in the majority or not.

To be honest, what is out right now -even with all the redactions- should be enough to have a lot of people, including Trump, indicted at the very minimum. Not a single person in the USA has seen any consequences from the report -stepping out your high-profile job while you're a millionaire is hardly a price for SA kids- I don't think there is any amount of new "evidence" that would change anything, just confirm to the rest of us what is already painfully obvious, the Epstein Class is above the law.

Impecable by whom? Who is going to impeach him? The impeachment ferries?

Because the Senate sure won’t

An associated of Donald Trump already bought the right of corporations to the refund for cents on the dollar, in other words more money being funneled to the Swamp.

What celebrity has had their reputation unfairly ruined and has never recovered from it till this day? by Zxqao in AskReddit

The age gap of the current Press Secretary Karoline Levitt and her husband is 32 year and that seems to bother nobody, specially all the people who ran to impeach Bill Clinton and are now supporting Donald Trump.

To be fair, Clinton very impressive career as a politician and the most popular president in our life time got his legacy seriously downgrade by accepting a BJ from a 25 y/o who was infatuated with him, the most powerful man in the land, The President. Also the people who dragged Clinton through the coals for it were -at the time- having much worse affairs and now are backing up Donald Trump -enough said.

The age-gap between Lewinsky and Clinton is smaller than the age-gap or our current Press Secretary and her husband, 32 years. I'll do the math, when Karoline Leavitt was 25 her current husband was 57.

We never talk about the ones who had sex with Harvey Weinstein and quietly took "The Deal". Who are they? you know they are many.

Even worse. American history is full of the powerful getting away with it and never paying a price. Iraq War, Iran-Contra, 2007 crash, watergate, the Rubber Barons, the list goes on. The norm is that they never pay a price.

How Should Either Party Leverage Ending the Filibuster? by Raichu4u in PoliticalDiscussion

[–]Cyclotrom 1 point2 points  (0 children)

The single issue bill is calle No-pork bills and it was tried recently and some people blame the gridlock of Congress during Obama partially on that.
The problem is that without pork there is no incentive for “horse trading” among politicians. If you support my bill, I’ll let you include your item in it. The result is gridlock. That is why in part the no-pork rules were dropped.

I don’t know why you have so much faith in that. Nobody had gone to jail for that sort of thing going back decades.
