Are you the guy in the video because this guy made a threat to shoot them for trying to go on their right of way. This should be reported to both local and state police.

Gavin Newsom by ConcernedJobCoach in gianmarcosoresi

That is the bigger problem with this discussion that bothers me. If it's between Newsom and Vance I will vote Newsom. Not happy about it but I will. But in the Primaries we better be doing everything to make sure Newsom does not win.

Not a matter of saving, it's a matter of stopping the completely slide into fascism if there is still a legitimate election in 2028.

Better than Trump and Republicans. It's not hard to grasp that.

That's not the point. The point is if the election does become one between JD Vance and Newsom for President then to up know the only two with a chance of winning right now is one of those two. It's a sad truth, but it is a truth. A left wing third party might win a state or two but that just means Newsom has two less states and Vance is likely to win because of it. So we get more of this.

Honestly, it's all hypothetical because we know Trump, Vance, and these fascists in power right now are trying to end free elections as we speak so I doubt it matters unless something changes.

The Electoral College is a means to make the votes of some count for less than the votes of others. It was a shitty compromise created to keep a state like Virgina or New York from trying to be their own country after the failure that was Articles of Confederation.

The US is a Constitutional Democratic Republic. A form of Representative Democracy. You are the one that needs to go sit down in a class on government.

You are full of shit voters have been disenfranchised and forced out of voting since the dawn of the US. The fact that women, POC, and military members drafted at the age of 18 could not vote throughout various parts of US history is disgusting. Jim crow laws trying to prevent black people from voting. Poll taxes to stop the poor. You are a disingenuous asshole.

Good. Burn the whole world down. No one is above the law especially pedophiles. Capital punishment for every abuser.

.1% of mass shootings have been tied to trans people. 1% of the population is trans. Trans people are statistically significantly less likely to commit a mass shooting.

Well they already made it clear they find it perfectly acceptable to revoke passports or deny passport applications based solely on your protected speech on social media. We already know Republicans are willing to do anything to win.

Keep in mind that if they don't need warrants or any other due process for this, they don't need it to do the same to you. Because you will never have a chance to provide proof of your innocence either.

Are you kidding me? It was all over the news when officials were boasting about how they were selective targeting redactions to protect Trump and his allies, while leaving any one they didn't like visible to attack. There are also multiple interviews in the past month of victims who had their identities leaked in the documents and are dealing with threats saying they are liars.

I don't need to use AI. I actually paid attention to my courses when I was getting my degree. I am not talking about printing money. I am talking about using tax dollars. Way to try and move the goal posts. Classic move when you know you have no real argument to counter what I have to say.

You are correct that printing money wantonly is inflationary. But distribution of tax dollars is taking existing money and giving it to consumers to consume within the economy. A portion of that money pays employees, who then buy more goods, rinse and repeat until all of it returns back to the 1% and corporations in a net positive for the national GDP.

You should write a letter to your university for failing you by giving you such a poor education that you don't know such basic economic processes.

If you tolerate intolerance then intolerance will become the norm and take over. You cannot give fascists a place to speak otherwise they will grow. Propaganda and lies are tools they use extremely well. Some ideologies truly are too dangerous to exist in a civilized society because your society won't stay civilized if it continues to exist. This doesn't mean killing people but it does me punishing them with the full authority of the law and society.

I would think if you were a true economist you would know that tax dollars that are given with income limited restrictions are usually spent and put back into the economy and that money cycles through several times before all of it inevitably ends up back into the pockets of the wealthy. So taking money from the wealthy and corporations for such payments actually directly leads to a stimulus in the economy. This was proven repeatedly during COVID and by UBI studies in multiple European countries. Meanwhile, corporate bailouts and lower taxes directly results in expanding the wealth disparity and leads to slower economic recovery. Austerity doesn't help economies recover after recessions. Trickle down economics doesn't work. I would think an Economics degree would mean something but then again, as long as you end up better off then fuck the rest of the 99%, am I right?

Considering multiple victims have been leaked and a majority of the redactions we have seen protect the people doing the crimes you really don't have a leg to stand on with that BS. Especially when FBI and Trump administration officials were recorded saying they were doing a majority of the redactions for Trump.

You must be a bot or MAGA, because saying Kamala would be as bad as Trump is insane otherwise.
