These Dems are telling New Yorkers they need to be recalled, primaried, and/or replaced. Unless you’d rather live under Israeli rule, because that’s the objective of those like Hochul and Schumer.
Here’s hoping AOC pulls her head out of her ass and primaries Chucklefuck, instead of attempting a ruinous, premature presidential run.
The way he answered the question, translated to English from dipshit, sounded to me like he was trying to say he likes where the number is and thinks it’s healthy for the economy; ie, downplaying fears.
The actual response just comes off as completely out of touch though, which he is. It’s also something no sane politician would dream of saying under any circumstances.
I too am looking forward to the ensuing mental gymnastics by the sycophants and pundits to try and spin this one. Frankly I don’t think it matters - Israel isn’t letting him pull out of the war, and staying in it will absolutely wreck the economy. I predict that once that pain extends to the oligarchs in any meaningful way, Trump will perish under mysterious circumstances explained away by old age and bad health. Then Vance can begin his run in earnest by trying to pump the brakes on Israeli colonization and land theft. Good luck to him I guess, he’s gonna need it.
You’re right. Appreciate the technical accuracy, but yeah I opted for brevity and convenience in that comment.
Yeah they’re trying to go after Platner for alleged sexting too. Still trying to Anthony Weiner style cancel these politicians, when we literally have Mr. “grab em by the pussy”, convicted and not just hearsay mind you, elected twice. The moral right is as ridiculous as it is hypocritical, who gives a shit.
If their partners have a problem with it then that’s between them to figure out, I don’t see how it affects their politics at all. Certainly didn’t matter for notorious playboy JFK, and doesn’t matter with convicted orange rapist either.
Strangely enough, it’s still the same ones in office after all that time…
Just vote for us one more time bro, please bro, we’ll totally investigate the high crimes of DC insiders bro just more votes bro just this one more time PLZ!!!
I actually lol at “actively working on…letters”
I have industry knowledge on bridges, and would be happy to sell you a new one.
Democrats snatch defeat from the jaws of victory, a timeless classic.
Their newly released fail report from ‘24 election doesn’t even mention Israel once. They are paid to learn all the wrong lessons, only.
I genuinely believe the Dems are done because they have completely abandoned the working class. Unless they hard pivot to a far left socialist platform (lmao), we are better off organizing around a completely new party who will work tirelessly to root out corruption and bring these child raping, robber baron, smug pieces of human excrement to justice.
Not that laws even matter much anymore for Repugnantcons, but we do have some good ones on the books for dealing with acts of treason. If Biden had respected those laws given his mandate upon election, things would have been different.
America keeps letting traitors off the hook, and paying for it dearly.
More like president for Israel, and he did it for free. They didn’t even have Epstein files on him, he just did it for the love of Zionism.
Well, no. Pretty much the only bills that get passed in modern era Congress are omnibus budget bills. MTG’s Israeli funding reduction was a specific amendment to one such bill, which AOC chose to vote against.
I’m sure the rest of what got passed had all sorts of whacko conservative garbage within, because they control the entire federal government at this time. This is likely partially why AOC voted against the actual bill as well.
That said, if you consider Israeli control of the US government an existential threat, which I do, then that makes it even more important to find opportunities to work with the conservatives in power to curtail Israel’s influence, which MTG’s amendment would have done.
AOC could have had her cake and eaten it too, by voting to pass the amendment to remove some funding to Israel, and then casting a performative nay vote for the overall budget bill.
So yeah, I’m disappointed that she chose partisan politics above achieving an impactful, measurable result. But that’s liberals for you. The only reason I care is because I hold AOC to a higher standard than most of them, because she is by far the closest to representing my own values in terms of her actual voting record and what she claims to believe in.
Perhaps. But just to put a fine point on this matter - I am glad that AOC came around to the correct position on whether we should continue funding the terrorist nation state of Israel, in that we absolutely should not. They are literally using this money to buy off our politicians so that they don’t work for us, instead they work for Israel. It’s wrong in every possible way.
I sincerely hope this is how AOC will vote regarding bankrolling Israel in the future, regardless of whether the authors of said bills have an R next to their name, or whether she perceives them to be a hypothetical future opponent in a presidential race.
Cash is fungible. Israel doesn’t care what it’s earmarked for, giving them money further enables the genocide. The important thing is that the US attempt to apply leverage by reducing what we give them.
My positions on Israeli genocide and the shameful involvement of the US, due to our government being captured wholly by Israel, have been consistent throughout.
It’s funny you make this claim however. The bad faith argument was from AOC claiming that she had to vote no because of offensive weaponry, when in fact she did so because her esteemed colleagues told her to heel. After the vote, she changes her position. Interesting.
Ok well MTG isn’t running for president, nor would I vote for her if she did because like AOC, I don’t trust her at all.
However, when she drafted a bill to reduce aid to Israel by 500mil, AOC voted against it. AOC claims she is about results, but then does her own purity tests like this which further enable genocide. It is damaging, divisive, and disingenuous of her to do so.
MTG was in congress when she drafted a bill to reduce military aid to Israel, and AOC voted against it.
You don’t have to trust MTG in order to work with her across the aisle to sign legislation putting an end to funding Israeli genocide. The two things can be true together.
This is an infuriatingly divisive lib take by AOC, and sadly further evidence she’s just not ready for a presidential run. I truly hope she reconsiders and goes after Chucklefuck’s senate seat instead, it would do way more good for the movement that way.
That’s the thing about gerrymandering - it’s dangerous because you set up those razor thin margins to get the most seats possible, but what happens when there is a political landslide?
This is precisely why Texas has been going purple and outright at risk of turning blue in the last 10-15 years.
On the other hand - while It’s likely going to be a total shellacking of Repugs, this regime hasn’t shown a willingness to accept defeat and the “opposition” party hasn’t really shown a willingness to hold them to account for their crimes and flagrant disregard for the law. The future is very uncertain, and I’m not convinced at all that it’s possible to vote our way out of this mess.
Facts are very inconvenient for them.
This is your brain on Fox and Newsmax.
Mmhm. I’ll believe it when I see any votes to the contrary.
