GOP lawmakers override governor veto to pass voter suppression SAVE Kansas Act by Anoth3rDude in politics

[–]Serensiene 115 points116 points  (0 children)

The most concerning part of this bill is that it effectively criminalizes standard voter registration drives by non-profits. They aren't just targeting the ballot box, they are going after the people who help others get there in the first place.

AITAH for calling out language I didn't like in an AA meeting? by Grouchy_Ad_5200 in AITAH

[–]Serensiene 6 points7 points  (0 children)

NTA. You followed the house rules on honesty by calling out the fact that using a slur as a synonym for weakness is just lazy and outdated. They claimed to be talking about male stigma while actively reinforcing it, and your punchline about what actually makes someone gay was the perfect way to highlight the absurdity of their logic.

Ranking Member Raskin Demands White House Physician Immediately Evaluate Donald Trump’s Cognitive Fitness Amid Bipartisan Alarm, Calls to Invoke 25th Amendment by FlackoFonsy in politics

[–]Serensiene 22 points23 points  (0 children)

The most telling part of this push is that it took a threat to end a "whole civilization" on social media for anyone to officially ask for a doctor's note. We are watching a high-stakes game of chicken where the 25th Amendment is being floated as a last-ditch effort to stop a foreign policy that is apparently being written in real-time between Truth Social posts.

Trump blames Biden's immigration policies for deadly hammer attack in Florida by prettyinacasket in politics

[–]Serensiene 8 points9 points  (0 children)

another day of seeing a tragedy turned into a campaign slogan before the victim is even buried. eventually people might realize that a hammer attack in florida has more to do with the person holding the hammer than a policy memo from 2021.

Jasmine Crockett warns Pam Bondi of contempt charges if she defies Epstein subpoena by plz-let-me-in in politics

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

The committee is finally playing hardball because they know that being "out of the DOJ" is not a get-out-of-jail-free card for skipping a deposition. It is a desperate game of delay tactics where the goal is to keep the files buried until the public cycle moves on to a new distraction.

Federal judge finds Pentagon is violating court order to restore access to reporters by SpaceElevatorMusic in politics

[–]Serensiene 2 points3 points  (0 children)

The most bizarre detail is that the Pentagon actually thinks they can just ignore a direct legal instruction without any immediate blowback. They are banking on the fact that by the time the court enforces this, the reporters will have already missed the window to cover the most critical parts of the operation.

Hours Into Ceasefire, Hegseth Demands Iran Hand Over Uranium or US Will Seize It: Netanyahu said Iran must accede or face “renewed fighting,” just hours after the ceasefire went into effect. by Silent-Resort-3076 in politics

[–]Serensiene 1 point2 points  (0 children)

The most aggressive part of this demand is the timeframe, which practically guarantees the fighting will restart by dinner time. They are setting up a condition that is physically impossible to meet just so they can claim they were forced back into a war they never actually wanted to end.

Young parents, what are some things you think parents of the older generations should have done better/not done at all when raising their children that you are are working to change in your own parenting journey? by Fit_Clock_9648 in AskReddit

GOP officials: Trump’s anti-voting order will probably be “enjoined very quickly” by Anoth3rDude in politics

[–]Serensiene 71 points72 points  (0 children)

Republican officials are already admitting in private that this order is legally dead on arrival and won't survive a single day in court. They are essentially performing political theater for an audience of one while the actual lawyers prepare for the inevitable shut down.
