Politics@beehaw.org•It can happen here: Everyone who realizes with proper alarm that Trump’s reëlection is a deeply dangerous moment in American life must think hard about where we are -- [Opinion]
6·2 years agoBernie Sanders consistently polled better than anyone else against Trump in 2016
The US government banning anything based on suspected use of forced labor is laughable. Pretty blatantly anti-China, and very hypocritical when a lot of US states use glorified slave labor. It is quicker to name the large US companies that don’t use prison labor than the ones that do.

2·2 years agoThat is a horrific endorsement and Dick Cheney is a monster.

4·2 years agoClassic playbook for him and his successive governments: constantly trading human lives for political power and votes.

Politics@beehaw.org•‘Weird’ And The Breaking of The Fascist Fever
2·2 years agoThis is exactly what I was thinking of. American liberals are almost entirely ignorant of how much violence their government exports – and especially how much of it is targeted specifically at leftists. Marxists haven’t gained power in the US because any time they started to build working-class support they got murdered.

Politics@beehaw.org•U.S. Presidential election: 'Republicans for Harris’ launch features key names, impressive numbers
15·2 years agoNot really a surprise; the political establishment of even the Republican party got really sick of Trump during his time in office because of the chaos. He didn’t behave like the typical useful idiot President and torpedoed a couple of easy legislative victories by tweeting in rage when they were almost through Congress.

Politics@beehaw.org•‘Weird’ And The Breaking of The Fascist Fever
8·2 years ago“Marxists have failed to gain power because they think too much” is one hell of a liberal elitist take from the author of this article.

Politics@beehaw.org•Harris tells Netanyahu ‘it is time’ to end the war in Gaza and bring the hostages home
2·2 years agoWhen “we have a right to defend ourselves” is the excuse given for genocide it’s completely unreasonable

Politics@beehaw.org•Harris tells Netanyahu ‘it is time’ to end the war in Gaza and bring the hostages home
3·2 years agoIsn’t this literally two days after she parroted the Zionist mantra “israel has a right to defend itself”?

Politics@beehaw.org•China Social Media Embraces Trump After Harris Steps Into Race
4·2 years agoEvery foreign government at this point knows Trump is really easy to bribe and influence, so they want him back in charge. Certainly not unique to China.

Politics@beehaw.org•Teamsters President Sean O’Brien Says Union Is “Not Beholden To Anyone Or Any Party” In Historic RNC Speech
8·2 years agoWhy did the RNC invite a union president to speak in the first place? Seems very out-of-character especially considering what he said on stage

World News@beehaw.org•Chinese risk perilous journey in search of ‘freedom’ in the United States: “I want to say whatever I want and don’t have to worry about the police knocking on my door.”
3·2 years agoLooks like even Chinese citizens aren’t immune to “Murica best freedom” propaganda.

Politics@beehaw.org•Joe Biden issues Supreme Court warning
4·2 years agoThe Supreme Court idea of judicial review was, essentially, created by an early Chief Justice using the classic children’s excuse “the rules don’t say I can’t do this so therefore I’m doing it and you can’t stop me”
Edit: I had this somewhat wrong. After reading, it seems a lot of the people who wrote and debated on the Constitution wrote strongly in support of judicial review, and it was in fact voted on and approved by multiple state legislatures after the Constitution was adopted. It simply wasn’t worded explicitly into the Constitution. Chief Justice John Marshall did issue an official ruling that made it a standard practice but it was not a new concept.

Politics@beehaw.org•Joe Biden issues Supreme Court warning
3·2 years agoI’m referring to this, in the article.
The conservative justices appointed by his rival, former President Donald Trump, are “already gutting voting rights, overturning Roe, decimating affirmative action, and so much more,” Biden said. “Are we going to let that happen? We can’t.”
The Democrats are, in fact, letting it happen.

Politics@beehaw.org•Joe Biden issues Supreme Court warning
5·2 years agoYet another blatant, pandering lie.

Nothing of interest?
It reveals that the Hungarian Revolution (the one the Soviet Union suppressed) was funded by the CIA.
It stated that the American Federation of Labor had a high-ranking informant who sent frequent reports to the Agency.
And that’s just the beginning, really
