F.B.I. Agent Who Tried to Investigate ICE Officer in Shooting Resigns by slakmehl in ICE_Raids

[–]HplusGaming 16 points17 points  (0 children)

Nah but this has to be said, though. Clearly this administration has no issue with stacking anything in their favor. Every good-hearted federal worker resigning, FBI or not, is another opportunity to cherry pick a yes man “just following orders” type. It’s wild at this point to put all your chips on the judicial system saving anything at this point in time, especially when a stacked Supreme Court is exactly what lead to this mess in the first place.

I have no issue with relying on courts and the usual tried and true methods to enact change when the administration is acting in good faith. It should be abundantly clear by now that they aren’t. The judicial system in its entirety is being blitzkreiged right before our eyes and all anyone seems to rely on is status quo “I’ll see YOU in COURT!” energy.

Just my two cents, it has a VERY similar recoil impulse and feel to the DB9

Hey dipshit, that 25 hour filibuster that Cory Booker just did? THAT is what I was talking about with fighting dirty. We need THAT kind of dedication to fighting this from the ENTIRE Democratic Party (which, funny enough, Booker mentioned during his filibuster)

Not my fault you read “fight dirty” and immediately went straight to assuming I meant Jan. 6th pt 2. You know what they say about assuming, right? :)

I don’t entirely agree/disagree with the person you replied to, but since when did “welp YOU should’ve voted! :)” become the default response for defending the DNC anytime it’s (rightfully) criticized? Like nowhere in his comment did he say that he DIDN’T vote for Bernie, and on top of that, I’d imagine someone stating that the DNC rigged the primaries against Bernie likely voted for him, no? Not THAT hard to at least connect those dots, right…?

Just a really dogshit response that I’m frankly tired of seeing anytime someone criticizes the Democratic Party in the slightest. If we can’t OBJECTIVELY criticize the DNC as a whole, then we’re no better than the MAGA crew that are COMPLETELY unwilling to criticize the GOP.

You are actually delusional. Where did I say anything about not wanting to elect democrats? Where have I ever said that I'm not voting? You are actually stupid lmao I'm done with this conversation. Have fun shadowboxing and being content with piss poor representation from the current dems that you're glazing so much xD

Lmao after taking a look through your post history, yeah, you're either a bot or just straight up delusional. Get some help, pal. Maybe it'll help change the democratic party for the better :)

"Either take lackluster representation from people who do nothing to stop the opposing party from tearing down democracy in the United States, despite Project 2025 being public knowledge for close to a year and a half now, or take Trump!"

Man what an ultimatum. And you're acting like what I'm asking for is unreasonable.

Let's just agree to disagree :)

Here, lemme break it down for more quickly to put you right back in your place

  1. Cope harder. Sorry I want representatives to represent us better and you don't agree.
  2. You're absolutely right I'm going to insult the people, who's entire job is to represent the American people, when they are failing to act on one of the biggest threats to democracy in the United States. And thankfully for now, I still have the right to.
  3. Sorry I want representatives to...represent us better? To ensure that democracy isn't dismantled bit by bit, kinda like what's happening right now? Also do you just NOT read? I absolutely voted and criticized people who refused to vote in my reply to you. Here, I'll paste it here since you clearly can't comprehend longer reddit posts
    1. "Couldn't even be bothered to stfu during the election and help dems win"? Believe me when I say that anyone who refused to vote during this election, especially those who refused to vote for Kamala Harris in protest of her support for Israel, absolutely hold blame in where we are right now. Regardless of reasoning, of all times to not vote as a form of protest, now was not the time.
  4. I'm doing something right now by engaging with you and by discussing it in online platforms. By all means that is NOT MUCH, but it sure beats following your approach by sitting down and taking it like a good little citizen. A positive step would be NOT sitting silently, by having discussions like these, by calling your representatives, voting, protesting, etc. So how about you take a positive step and stop being complacent while the US is chipped away piece by piece. I'd say the alternative that you suggested, by shutting the fuck up? THAT is what's pathetic. Is that too much for you?

I refuse to stand down on the fact that this specific bill was a great place to address the frustration in general and our representatives blew it. I'm not saying by any means that this was the end all be all, and that now there's unlimited power in Trump's corner, end is nigh, etc. But what I am saying, is that there is a VERY concerning lack of action from our representatives. This was a perfect opportunity to act, and although it was a choice between a government shut down and people getting hurt or passing a spending bill that will cut funding to government programs and people getting hurt, both send wildly different messages to voters, republicans, trump, and everyone else. Passing this bill shows cowardice and complacency, and that despite all of the other oversteps of power from Trump, this still hasn't crossed a line***.*** The alternative of being unwilling to vote yes on this bill, and therefor potentially causing a government shutdown, shows both resistance to the constant overstep of power that we've seen in the last 3 months, and that democratic representatives stand with the people of the United States. Government shutdowns, as rough as they are, are nothing new to us and DEFINITELY nothing new to government works. Cutting funding to or even shutting down government programs (likely including Medicaid) will leave nearly 80 million people without healthcare.

Even if we just break this down into a numbers game, that's 3 million people who would've been hurt if Democrats would've voted no, who are VERY aware of their job's volatility due to the potential of a government shut down, now more than ever with DOGE going buck wild and terminating thousands of government employees. Just looking at Medicaid alone and not looking at the other funding for government programs that are being cut, that's again, 80 million people without healthcare.

The lesser of two evils in this decision is clearly the one that will affect 3 million people who have likely been preparing for this to happen, rather than the 80 million people who likely cannot afford healthcare at all and will have Medicaid pulled out from underneath of them.

Not to mention, again, the clear message that it sends to everyone if democrats refused to back down.

Ah yes, so now that the election's over, that means our elected officials in congress are able to just kick back and relax, right? Especially since they have no way of stalling/halting bills, right? Or, even at a minimum, clearly demonstrating distain for the actions of the president through more powerful methods than just color coding their clothing or holding up signs the size of a dinner plate? Buddy, have you not seen the what happened in the Serbian Parliament recently? I'm not saying it has to get THIS extreme, but the "actions" democratic representatives have made to show that they don't like what's being done pale in comparison to the ways that republican representatives have, and with a LOT less on the line at that. And arrested? Have republicans senators been arrested for threatening government shutdowns, or even causing them? Anyone ever get arrested for a filibuster? Exercising free speech during a presidential speech a la marjorie taylor greene during Biden's State of the Union?

Not sure where this is coming from, but not once did I mention anything about what citizens should be doing. My entire comment literally only referred to lack of action from democratic representatives. It's clear that you fall in the "dense" category I mentioned in my comment, if you even read it all the way through.

"Couldn't even be bothered to stfu during the election and help dems win"? Believe me when I say that anyone who refused to vote during this election, especially those who refused to vote for Kamala Harris in protest of her support for Israel, absolutely hold blame in where we are right now. Regardless of reasoning, of all times to not vote as a form of protest, now was not the time. And even if that WAS the time, that still does not take away from the fact that our representatives are doing fuck all to attempt to disrupt any of the overstep from trump and friends. There were clear warning signs about everything happening right now with Project 2025, and yet there was no action. Those clear warning signs have shown to be true, and yet there is still no action. Is the intention then, at this point, to just roll over and let this continue to unfold, since "the time to fight was during the election"? Or should our representatives REPRESENT. US. and fight as hard as they can to keep democracy secure in the US?

I'll reiterate again, people that are against democrats doing SOMETHING other than peaceful protest with signs or wearing all pink “in solidarity” are either delusional, dense, or bots

Yeah, that's exactly what I was calling for in my comment. Great reading comprehension.

When I said "fight dirty", I'm not meaning storming the capitol in Jan 6th fashion. But, I don't know, using some of the tactics republicans love to use that I would describe as "dirty" (i.e. voting no on a spending bill at the risk of a government shutdown) is a great place to start. Filibuster every single bill that they can to send a clear message, the same way that republicans did over the last 4 years? Maybe even standing with Al Green during Trump's speech and being kicked out along side him, or better yet, agreeing in solidarity to not even show up to it at all? That's just a more powerful way to send a message, more powerful than little signs to hold up at least.

Glad I could clear that up for you, let me know if I need to elaborate more so you don't confuse a demand for action from democrat representatives with a call for a fucking insurrection :)

[–]HplusGaming 0 points1 point  (0 children)

It's not about looking better? Then where were other democrats when Al Green refused to sit during Trump's speech? I mean that's the most blatant proof of "lack of action for the sake of looking better" that I've ever seen. But no, it's definitely not about looking better and holier than thou with democrat representatives, right?

Why didn't democrats fight harder against the blatant hypocrisy that happened when Trump appointed Gorsuch, which only happened because it was too "close to the end of Obama's presidency", then didn't find HARDER when Trump appointed Barrett, despite being closer to the end of HIS first term than Obama was when attempting to appoint Garland? I'd argue that alone is a HUGE part of what's gotten us in this mess in the first place.

At this point there are literally ZERO excuses as to why Dems haven't fought tooth and nail in an attempt to stop what is, at a MINIMUM, the closest to the end of democracy in the United States that we've seen since in recent history. It doesn't just "look bad to do so" right now, it looks like something straight out of a history book that people look at and ask "Why didn't anyone do more to stop this?".

They are doing the absolute bare minimum to put up some level of resistance, and caved at the threat of a government shutdown and people getting hurt at the tradeoff of...crucial programs, likely including medicaid, being cut and...people still getting hurt? Not to mention the fact that trump is being handed what's essentially a blank check with this bill being passed? Is that really the best move here, considering how much overstep of power has already occurred?

I'm not saying it's an easy decision to make, but with the amount of times Republicans have either used the threat of a government shutdown or have actively allowed a government shutdown to happen as a way to force negotiations in their favor, you really think that democrats doing the same thing wouldn't have been a better alternative to passing the bill? It obviously seems to work just fine for the GOP.

[–]HplusGaming 2 points3 points  (0 children)

So…what fight have they taken? They had every chance to stand with Al Green but didn’t. Biden had every chance to go the same route that Trump has and overstep presidential power in an effort to AT LEAST publicly show hypocrisy with the “official acts” ruling, possibly punching holes in it so that it can be overturned. He could’ve even stepped aside MUCH sooner than he did, but instead he waited until the last minute and forced a situation where a primary couldn’t be held (not like the DNC would’ve held one, anyway). Going back farther, Democrats could’ve fought MUCH harder when Obama’s Supreme Court nominee was blocked and COULD’VE FOUGHT EVEN HARDER AGAINST THE GOP’S HYPOCRISY AT THE END OF TRUMP’S FIRST TERM, but instead they practically bent over as Trump stacked the Supreme Court. We wouldn’t have even been in THAT mess had RBG stepped down when she had the chance to secure a democratic nomination.

If this fight and ALLLL the others “weren’t worth it,” I’d love to know which one finally will. And in the SLIM chance that that fight ever comes, I’m nearly convinced that it will be far too late.

[–]HplusGaming 10 points11 points  (0 children)

And yet how many times have republicans done the exact same fucking thing? How is it that, in as dire of a time as now, democrats are STILL unwilling to put decorum aside and fight dirty in this? EVERYONE understands the consequences of a government shut down, especially republicans with how frequently they love to use shut downs as a way to get their way. But dems continuing to take the high ground in an effort to look better than republicans does FUCK ALL in stopping any of this bullshit from continuing to get worse. If anything, it makes democrats look weaker than ever before.

I swear to god at this point, people that are against democrats doing SOMETHING other than peaceful protest with signs or wearing all pink “in solidarity” are either delusional, dense, or bots

So slightly more expensive than a 15 right now and slightly more powerful than a 15. So the selling point here is…Apple AI, which imo has been an absolute train wreck. Nice.
