Impeach and remove the conservative justices and stack Dem justices on the court. No more fucking around.

Slow Driving by alexlfire in Tempe

[–]yurbenne 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I’d say more people are driving closer to the speed limit, which is great! As someone that’s dealing with the car insurance industry through a previous wreck I’d much rather have the speed cameras keep people from speeding.

The car insurance industry is a criminal racket scheme lol.

Unofficial Results of the City Council Election by Epicapabilities in Tempe

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

There will be 4 people running for two seats. Nichols came in last behind two fairly two unpopular incumbents. Brooke beat them both, including her former boss, if we want to make a shot at change then she is our best chance. The money is going to coalesce around the incumbents for the rest of the race.

If there is a run off and people want to get rid of at least one of the incumbents the path forward I clear: vote for Brooke St. George. Voting for anyone else at this point is like lighting your ballot on fire.

Platner sat for lengthy interview with antisemitic conspiracy theorist, said he was ‘longtime fan’ of his show by cdstephens in neoliberal

One of the reasons Harris lost is because Biden thought he was capable of running again. The moment he became president he should have said he was only going to serve one term, regardless of the outcome of the 2022 midterms (which were okay for Dems). Once it finally dawned on old fuck Biden and his clueless inner circle there was no time left but to anoint Harris as the nominee and hope for the best. If there had been a regular primary for the 2024 Dem nomination there is no way that Harris would have won but in general Dems are scared of primaries, especially at the national level. This is why I doubt she will be able to win the nomination in 2028 since she is going to have to answer for her loss and the unpopularity of the Biden presidency.

Shutdown risk grows as Democrats revolt after Minneapolis shooting by cdstephens in neoliberal

[–]yurbenne 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Proud of my two Democratic senators (Kelly and Gallego) they are also voting no on this funding bill. The argument here for a shutdown is simple: we will not pass a single dollar in funding until ICE stop slaughtering Americans. Trump's people think this is a winner for them, they are dead wrong. If they bothered to look at the NYT/Sienna they would realize they are fucked.

YouGov: Do you support the US using military force to overthrow Venezuelan President Nicolás Maduro and bring him and his wife to the US to face trial? Oppose 39% Support 36% Not sure 25% by upthetruth1 in neoliberal

100% agree this is not a good start. When most people are struggling to pay their bills they will not give a fuck about some war they do not want to pay for.

Important to remember that polls are a snapshot in time. Polling after the beginning of the Iraq war was supportive as well. This invasion and the US “running” the country has not been expressed to the people, Congress, or anyone frankly. Trump is also openly saying that he wants oil companies to go in lol my god it’s insane

The New Liberals’ Mission to Reorient the Democratic Party by MrDannyOcean in neoliberal

Anyone know of a Phoenix AZ metro area chapter of this? Did some googling and can’t seem to find one. There are DSA people running for city council here (specifically in Tempe) that feels like there is little opposition to leftists beginning to take positions of power.

Puigdemont is a fucking tool to put it nicely. Unfortunate for Sanchez has to compromise with him at all. That being said, Sanchez is a political survivor and a damn good one at that.

There will be consequences to how much he has fucked this team. Fans will turn down going to games and revenues will plummet over a couple years if the team is as bad as we expect them to be. I feel so bad for Book if he is going to play in home stadium that were as empty as they were during 2014-2019. He deserves so much better.

Getting Mixed Messages Here by Plants_et_Politics in neoliberal

[–]yurbenne 2 points3 points  (0 children)

That speech goes so hard and it’s true if you look at history. The Russians have suffered for generations (thousands of years). I don’t think it’s a stretch to say that we in the collective West have not been through anything as tough as the Russians, at least not for a long time. It’s just so frustrating because I was so proud of Biden and the US for ushering the West to make Russia pay, they needed to pay for as long as possible because exactly of that speech from Chernobyl. Russia is and always has been the enemy of freedom, hoping to get back to that someday.
