Let me guess.. to save the midterms the Dems will bravely put forth new legislation to send more money to Israel.

What are you complaining about? At least someone is doing something about genocide. Whenever anyone, including the chinese stand up for a civilized world they should be praised and supported. I welcome their kicking zionist war criminals in the face and hope for much more kicking. Somebody has to lead here and it sure as hell isnt the so called western world order. They are all busy hiding their pedophilia crimes committed in Israeli honeypot operations.

Well maybe not in this life, but someday there will be a non right wing leader of the American states again, or a portion of them anyway. We might as well start planning for that now rather than waiting.

Yeah.... One of the Obama quotes that sums him up pretty well is, "Tell me what we're doing and I'll sell it".

BUT, because of this countries history and a lot of undealt with racism and the path of pure chaos that always springs up from that, it was important for us all to have a black president and it was important that he do well. And Obama did well above average, even if I wanted a lot more out of him, after he strung us along with "Hope and Change". Obamacare alone sealed his legacy. His term was an important step toward universal civil rights. I dont know about you, but I Like civil rights and human rights for all. Its one of the #1 things I care about. The universality of rights is important no matter who you are--even to your avwerage white male right winger-- equal protection is something they need and should value. I am a financially OK old white guy myself, so this is not some sort self serving statement.

I need everyone in my country to do well because a country where all have enough is a significantly better place to live for me, and also just a better place to be a human being in. America needs to be a country that makes sure its poor have enough rather than a country fixated on if poor people have too much. We've become a shittier people over the course of my lifetime and there needs to be a change. Its got to start with getting rid of centrist dems and replacing them with people who care about the issues of the voters, even the poor ones, and who pledge to fight for human and civil rights for all-- that includes rejecting AIPAC completely.

If clinton testifies that trump gave him a blowjob, he will go down as one of the best-- simply for saving whats left of the "republic". If he fails to do that he's a mixed bag, and a bit of a failure.

Shapiro is not a progressive-- by what facts would you claim that he is? He advertises himself as someone who brings republicans and dems together on issues. He's as centrist as they come.

[–] kreskin@lemmy.world 7 points 1 day ago

Shapiro is bought and paid for by Israel. He cant possibly win an election the presidency, for starters, and even if he could win he'd be working for a country thats not ours, that wants America isolated from its military allies so it can act unconstrained by consensus. Shapiro would be the death of the democratic party for good.

To add to his lack of qualifications, he's new to politics. He's in his first term as a governor. He doesnt even know how national politics works, and he hasnt championed anything notable. He got a budget that added school breakfasts, and increased funding for state police. And thats about it. Thats not a leader for our times. Its insulting to see his name brought up as a candidate, yet again.

fair point. its the "royal we" where you are only a member insomuch as you have any role in actually operating or changing it. Collective responsibility is a slippery topic.

Well hello mr fancy pants! You know fancy feast is a canned brand right? You probably need to study your retirement savings carefully for this idea. Also the fancy feast cans shrank-- they are tiny now, so consider if you'll be opening more than one can per day.

oh thank god. Freedom from this awful system.

workers will not be allowed to work until they die unless its a really menial job. Every normal mundane mistake you make as an older worker, your bosses look at you trying to decide if you are too old to do the job.

For the good of the country Bill Clinton has to say that yes, Trump did give him a blow job. He did have sex with that man.

 

While it hasn't been used in 170 years, a forgotten trial by combat law still exists in Washington DC.

A group of 8 congressional dems challenged an 80 year old republican for floor time to debate a new bill to restore medicaid to its previous funding. Here is a video of the combat.

Israelis bringing their genocidal racism here, as if we didnt have enough racism problems already.

 

New Democrat coalition (pro-business centrists), and Problem Solvers cuacus (committee emphasizing bipartisan) darling up and comer Elissa Slotkin will detail the DNC democrats rebuttal to Trumps speech. Its unclear whether she will talk about Democrat's positions on key issues.

 

For those people wishing for "giant meteor" in the last US election, your desired meteor has finally arrived. The 40x90 meter fast moving meteor currently has a 2.2% likelihood of hitting earth. The effects of its impact would be severe but regional. For scale, the 30x98 meter meteor that hit the Podkamennaya Tunguska River Siberian forest in 1908 impacted 2150 sq meters (830 square miles).

Due to its lateness, smaller than needed size, lack of probable impact, and likeliness to actual deliver zero results, the meteor has been named "Centris" by observers.
