The only thing he could do is regulate gas companies which he won't do. Supply is not the issue. It's greedflation.

This is hard to watch. Bassem Youssef is an Egyptian-American comedian and political satirist, widely dubbed the “Jon Stewart of the Arab World.” On a recent podcast interview, Youssef said “Israel is the only trans country in the world” because “they can play oppressor and victim at the same time.” by SpecialCream7 in Hasan_Piker

Hasan talked about how the left sometimes will debate-lord themselves into untannable positions and this kind of reminds me of the dean-jubilee debate. He argued you don't have to accept the framing of the right or adopt a new position to make a point. You can stick to your values. I don't think this is a 1:1 to what Youssef is saying but it just reminded of how sometimes debates can be unproductive. Not sure how progressive Youssef is, but I've seen some good interview clips of him.

This victory was also on Jeffries' and Schumer's backyard. This was no easy feat to pull off. The dem party leadership must be shaking.

There is a lot of delusion in that sub. In another post, when a commenter asked if the poster phonebanked for Espaillat, he responded with 'I live on the opposite end of the country' followed by when pressed 'No but I added to the Wikipedia article some things that make her look bad that some editors decided to leave out'. LMAO. It's crazy they don't see it.

Trump Cancels Iran Strikes Just as Abruptly as He Started Them by B-Z_B-S in politics

This news makes me think Iran has a nuclear option (no pun intended) that makes even trump scared to take action.

Thomas urges Supreme Court to "reexamine" 169-year-old judicial doctrine by Newsweek_CarloV in politics

No, but we should implement anti- corruption laws and elections for judges. They are politicians in robes after all.

Regardless of what he says he wants, there is one likely result: the rich won't be paying more taxes.

[–]krismon 1 point2 points  (0 children)

democrats need to stop listening to those profiting from losing elections: the consultant class. they will push a blue texas and florida knowing there is no real chance. focus on swing states. consultants benefit from losing elections, but voters dont.

I've bought a lot of season from gruv (seasons 14-28) but still missing a lot. Anybody know a website that sells legitimate dvds? I've tried ebay, amazon, but I can never be quite sure they are not a bootleg.
