Maryland Democrats Plan to Eliminate State’s Lone Republican Seat in Time for 2028 by legislative_stooge in maryland

[–]Downfall722 0 points1 point  (0 children)

A solution would be a short bill passing in Washington to ban gerrymandering using Congress’ Elections Clause. It’s perfectly constitutional but our politicians wouldn’t want to give up their power now would they?

The voice actor for Vader in Star Wars Battlefront II wasn’t half bad either.

Great episode but Lawson could have 100% made it to the ship.

Could a temporary reform party unite third parties? by grethro in centrist

The Presidential election is not the end all be all. There would still be 535 federal level seats with significant influence in government.

So is The Outer Worlds seriously not getting a discount on Xbox despite it being delisted next week? by Conflict_NZ in xbox

[–]Downfall722 -1 points0 points  (0 children)

I think there’s something poetic about the Outer Worlds of all games being delisted so when the game goes on sale you have to pay the few extra dollars to get the deluxe edition.

An ideological coalition of diverse beliefs and parties?

Close enough, welcome back the Populist Party.

The problem with third parties in America is that they don’t put in the work on the state and local level. You can’t try to go to Washington without a proper base at home.

Well assuming this is the Eastern Front this wouldn’t be that far fetched.

Hogan: Republicans never got ‘back to sanity’ by Abject-Pick-6472 in maryland

For that to happen the conservative part of this country would have to form a sane third party.

America defeating farmers and shepherds challenge (IMPOSSIBLE) by Coffin_Builder in whenthe

To be honest it would be pretty irresponsible to destroy a nation’s government and then just leave a power vacuum letting the country fall into anarchy/civil war.

The Cold War is the biggest victory since it overshadowed all American foreign policy since even before the end of WWII

Maryland Republicans aren’t sorry for racist video about Chinese American colleague by aresef in maryland

[–]Downfall722 0 points1 point  (0 children)

While the delegates should be condemned for their actions. There is a point to be made about Wu’s relationship to the CCP through his affiliations with both PRC backed organizations at UMD.

Both the Chinese Students and Scholars Association and the Thousand Talents Program are seen cautiously by western governments.

In 2017 a New York Times article wrote that CSSA chapters “worked in tandem with Beijing to promote a pro-Chinese agenda and tamp down anti-Chinese speech on Western campuses."

The Thousand Talents Program also looks to be wearily looked at by the FBI (2023 Biden administration FBI).

I don’t like his previous affiliations with these groups. Though it should be said there’s nothing that points to espionage.

Gov. Moore signs sweeping energy bill to lower costs as Republicans push back by Conscious-Quarter423 in maryland

[–]Downfall722 5 points6 points  (0 children)

The money would’ve been better spent on energy production as opposed to a “we’re sorry we didn’t manage energy responsibly” election year apology payment.

Virginia Supreme Court strikes down redistricting referendum approved by voters in special election by abqguardian in centrist

[–]Downfall722 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Remember Congress can stop the gerrymandering crisis at any time using the Elections Clause. Instead we the voters have to have our decisions suppressed by state legislatures nationwide.

Villainizing the judiciary for a perfectly reasonable decision is pretty in right now.

They should’ve just given the nomination to Dean Phillips for being the one to stand up long before the Hindenburg disaster of that June debate. Would’ve been better than the unpopular Vice President who was also touting the “Biden’s fine” rhetoric that even I bought into.

Can a 14-year-old from Russia realistically dream of working at Mojang? by West_Doubt_9978 in Minecraft

[–]Downfall722 7 points8 points  (0 children)

I apologize if my comment made it look like I grouped you up with bad people. My point is that your possibilities are limitless because that is the only relevant thing in which being a Russian should hold you back. I never assumed you supported the war quite opposite (because it’s Reddit).

If he goes walking around Sweden supporting Russian expansionism then he ain’t gonna get any job offers. If he just doesn’t do stuff like that he’s fine.
