5.2-3 Open Threads
What exactly was the point of Nancy Pelosi/Pelousy visiting the mess that is the Russian-Ukrainian conflict? Let the War Department $$yahoos$$ go over there. They and their Neoliberal/RWing hacks are why our dollars are spent on war garbage which is grossly overpriced, and a lot is poorly produced. Sounds very similar to our Deathcare System. Have at it, y’all. The Nest is Open.😊☮️👍
This was for the second building in the area. I don’t think they will give up though.
I think the Squad has some explaining to do. Not so much Pressley as the others.
I agree. They call themselves “Progressives”? What’s their gripe against Nina? And what’s with Jayapal? Personality conflict or just what?
Jayapal and Pocan have sold out. As I mentioned in another thread, Jayapal works well for her district. But no longer does she satisfy my idea of progressive politicians.
I think both ought to be taken off our candidates list.
Didn’t they support Nina in the Special Election? What changed? Brown sure didn’t. She’s a craporate Democrat. Man, have we got some trash down here. Governor’s race: Nikki Fried vs. ex-GOPuke Charlie Crist. Now, I was all for Fried, but I heard thru a reliable source that she’s tied in with Matt Gaetz. I will definitely check that out by August.
At 8:10 pm this evening I received this email from Nina’s campaign, not from AOC’s.
The election is tomorrow and she endorses the night before. Where the hell do we go from here?
Lobby is just a fancier way of saying craporate bribing. I always has been and always will be. 🙁
Typo alert: It not I. 🙂
I wasn’t aware Biden had proclaimed a loyalty day. Not going to get it from young people if you means test student debt forgiveness.
We have flag day next month, good enough for me.
I don’t like the authoritarian tone of the proclamation.
I look at the source and ignore it.
Sounds like something Cult -45 would’ve done
loyalty day??
sounds like something out of 1984
Thank you, AOC. I knew we could count on you for supporting Nina Turner – Even it’s a little late.
From the NYT:
@Orlbucfan, may I insert that tweet about AOC endorsing Nina on the OP?
You most certainly can, Ms. Benny!! 🙂 These are Open Threads. LOL. I am still baffled by Jayapal. But, AOC is gaining power in her own right. Please, please Cleveland, send Ms. Nina to DC. We need her type desperately.
Clenched Fist and Thumbs Up x 1000!
Pay attention to the Ohio Senate Primary piece of the story. It could be a game changer in Ohio for Turner – Brown rematch as GOP’s who voted for Brown may be interested instead in the senate race. JD Vance campaigned with fellow Fake News advocates Matt Gaetz and Marjorie Taylor Greene.
2022 midterms: What to know about Ohio, Indiana primaries
Man, is Carroll full of sh1t or what?! About the only thing Floridumb leads in is corrupt creeps like Sick Rott buying elections with stolen money.
Supreme Court has voted to overturn abortion rights, draft opinion shows
Next up Birth control and gay rights, A whole new world for child bearing women just began—– for the worse. Dont worry the rich men rwill fly their “oops” off the Mexico to take care of the problem,
I might add that in El Salvador a woman can and do go to jail for a miscarriage.
A lot of those countries in Central America are solidly Roman Catholic. I know Costa Rica is.
There’s the problem isn’t it? Religion and dogma will bury us all. If we let it.
No doubt, especially when people pervert what’s in the religious text to their narrative
People don’t even know what the text is unless they can read Aramaic or Greek. And if they can find scribe transferred texts old enough to even take a crack at the original. And that’s just Christianity.
Well, a lot of them are senile and crooked. Pick one.
Not going to happen. The spectre of the anti abortion boogey man is far too lucrative a fundraiser, and these happy fascists think an actual overturn of Roe will get them many votes this fall, and pull their collective butts out of the fire. Let’s not forget this is a fire the DNC set, when they manipulated the primary process to nominate Biden.
What we have here are two sides of the same fascist oligarchic coin, the Red side and the Blue side.
Amen, brother!💩
Way to late Bernie, Obama could have done it, With Manchin and Sinema no chance of that happening
Because when R’s get power, they execute their agenda like a dictator would, they dont give a rats ass on how much the other side screams in protest. They also turn out to vote every election no matter what. Moderate dems have the spine of jello and have no clue/will about using political power for their constituents benefit. The Dem voting block only get off their collective asses to vote in presidential elections only and they wonder why the shape the Dem party is in. Now the pundants are saying the upcoming loss of R v W will motivate mid-term turnout. I’ll believe it when i see it.
The FRight freakazoids on this Court need to get this crap over with!
With the ethical questions around some of them, yes they do. While this diabolical majority remains intact.
A snail has more brains than Alito. 💩
I think his arrogance and self-importance is even larger than his ignorance.
let me guess its in a Nina leaning area?
Many more to go 🙂
Well, since the DNC is made up of moderate GOPukes, what do you expect???
Hi, Elizabeth? I like you, but that ain’t funny 🙁
It’s painful to look back and remember that I used to hold some respect for David Corn.
Yeah, especially against women. Glad I am an old fart, through menopause.
Same here as the Mrs is ging thru that. But what worries me is my sons wife has a medical condition which makes a pregnancy more difficult. I hate to think what would happen if something goes wrong and she cant get the care she needs
Etopic pregnancies can cause death. Do we really want to go back to the 1950’s?
Apparently thats what the old male talibangelicals want for women. You know the routine they want –barefoot, pregnant and in the kitchen where they belong.
Also not going to happen. With the bought Senators now in this configuration, the filibuster isn’t going anywhere.
Agreed, but it’s still important to express outrage. Dems are too fat and satisfied with making money with insider lobbyists who bribe them.
