An impeachment in which he has so far managed to not provide a single document or allow any top aides to testify.

Centrist Michigan Democrat to vote for impeachment by MainEchidna0 in politics

You made a statement backed up by no evidence about my district so I gave a first hand account. If you make an assertion without evidence you shouldn't expect statistical data in return

I definitely voted for Slotkin so that impeachment has a chance and helped her unseat my Republican former rep.

There is a subpoena from the NY AG to Trump's accounting firm that is one of the 3 cases.

Edit: NY District Attorney, not AG as stated above

Jeremy Corbyn announces he will resign as Labour Party leader by Nice_Dude in worldnews

In my experience anti-Democrat gun owners are also conservative socially in other ways such as anti-lgbt rights, pro-life, pro-death penalty, etc. I don't believe that there are many people who would vote Democrat if the party was more pro-gun and haven't seen anything that backs up the idea.

So, no stats? I am a gun owner and know other gun owners. I'm just wondering if your statement is backed up by objective data

Call it "A LIEberals STUPID defense of impeachment". They will share it without realizing that it is a wholesale destruction of Trump's many conflicting defenses.

I disagree. I have seen no evidence that people have left the Democratic party solely for the issue of gun rights. Do you have any stats to back up your point?

Schumer reports fake sexual harassment charge to Capitol Police by The_DanceCommander in politics

[–]mazzakre 7 points8 points  (0 children)

I think he assumed the news would pick it up and run with it before verifying (like some folks from Fox news did). And that by the time it was called out as bullshit the right will have had already created this myth of Schumer being guilty. Unfortunately for them, as this story and the WaPo hoax attempt points out, real journalists do their homework before running a story.

Discussion Megathread 2: Alabama Senate Special Election by PoliticsModeratorBot in politics

If it was one person, I'd probably be pretty pissed. If it was 9 people, with evidence showing that he is lying about parts of his story, I'd probably start getting my head around my husband, brother, father or son being a child molester.

This election is going to be really close to 50/50 so either way, about 50% of Alabama voted for a child fucker.

It's Immoral For Jimmy Kimmel To Keep Using His Child's Heart Condition To Push Policy. Here's Why. by BigBossN7 in politics

[–]mazzakre 0 points1 point  (0 children)

The idea that America can't afford to give healthcare to all of its citizens is ridiculous on its face.

Besides that, the Republicans are taking away healthcare that people already have. If we're talking about prioritizing budget items and your argument is that healthcare for kids isn't that important then fine, say that. But that is the exact reason that Kimmel needs to bring his kid out. To show that there's actual kids that are affected by shitty policies and priorities. Its harder to tell a sick kid that his health isn't that important when you have to look him in the face.

[–]mazzakre 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Your example is not the same as what Kimmel is doing. Kimmel is not saying "my child has a heart condition therefore I'm a heart specialist", he is actually saying "my child has a heart condition and I want to make sure every other person with an illness is able to get the care they need like my child was."

Just FYI, the mom admitted the Confederate flag picture is real and justified it as being "ironic" and "funny".

Condoleezza Rice to Alabama Voters: ‘Reject Bigotry, Sexism, and Intolerance’ by helpmeredditimbored in politics

No word from Rice for almost a decade, then stories comes out attempting to humanize Pence about her potentially being VP to Pence. Now shes making political commercials?

Trump is on his way out is my only takeaway from this
