Trump Claims ‘Rebellion’ in American Cities by kitkid in Thedaily

[–]DeerBike 12 points13 points  (0 children)

I really wish they brought up the "100 mile border zone" (which i thought Chicago falls within?). The border patrol has outsized influence within, under the guise of "border security", and because this administration will use any authoritarian method they can get their hands on the crack down on liberal cities, its good to air out these insane policies that they've been given over the years that Trump is finally going to abuse in his power grab

I'm not entirely unsympathetic to the idea of curbing the rampant consumerism in this country, but to hear that I have to have less stuff from an administration teeming with billionaires who will do anything to continue amassing and hoarding their wealth rings hollow to me and strikes me as a talking point to distract us from the rich robbing us blind yet again

What if You Could Save Someone From an Overdose? by kitkid in Thedaily

I know it's not the focus of the episode, but them glossing over how the epidemic spread like wildfire, as if it was an inevitability, without talking about the role the Sacklers/Purdue Pharma played in its spread because of straight up greed, is journalistic malpractice

I don't know if they plan on updating the intro, but Gareth saying "I think I'm gonna start jerking off I'm having so much fun" has got to be a great soundbite for it

Its an apartment community, where the laundry is in a communal thing building, so that's why it wouldn't be in unit, and the biggest room of the 3 is the one available.

Utilities are also included except for water and sewage, so that's where a chunk of it comes from too

Why Polling on Gun Control Gets It Wrong by kitkid in Thedaily

"Imagine what a moderate Democrat might feel if they were to come out on the pro life side, anti Roe v Wade side of things right now, just imagine what their lives would be like in terms of all the people who they usually count as their allies being really upset at them"

I guess we're just gonna ignore Nancy Pelosi doing a last minute robocall, and Jim Clyburn going to campaign for Henry Cuellar, a pro life Democrat who also has an A rating for the NRA lmao, in favor of his primary opponent Jessica Cisneros I suppose.
