I can’t wait to watch the Guardians of Pedophiles party implode the closer we get to November.
I absolutely love how little people are caring about this assassination attempt.
Everyone kind of just wants the same thing and I love that solidarity.
If this had happened to any other president in my lifetime it would be a much bigger cataclysmic event. And I love that it’s not going to help his polling.
It’s like the boy who cried wolf. The first time a President is almost killed that’s big news. The fourth time, a lot less interesting.
We’re only up to three so far, but we’ve got time.
A white California man tried to KILL our deeply unpopular pedophile president so we need to get RID of the fillibuster so we can FUND the DHS so that they can DEPORT more BROWN PEOPLE!
GOP is pathetic
Nah
You can really get anything done if you just arrest one guy near a government function.
Private function which invites public figures.
This assassination attempt was almost definitely a false flag.
Let’s, for sake of argument, say it wasn’t.
The location has plenty of security, security that successfully stopped the gunman.
In what world would this mean “obviously we need more security.” The security worked, it has enough funding, also the thing that protects the president is the secret service which is part of the department of the treasury, not DHS.
So the secret service did their job and stopped a threat and for some reason that means we should give an unrelated part of the government more money.
Reichstag fire
Maybe… There have been so many times we’ve said x event was the Reichstag Fire. And sure, I’m not denying it could be this time, but I don’t think we should automatically call it such yet.
I’m willing to admit they’ve tried to make other events be that catalyst, but thus far, it has largely failed. At least in the sense of the transition to complete autocratic dictatorship they want. They’ve absolutely made enough progress and damage to be very dangerous in other ways, but they are clearly wanting a full dictatorship.
I’ve wondered if the Germans who watched the Reichstag burn had any idea of what was coming for them.
Raise your hand if you suspect the shooter incident was more like an orchestrated fundraiser.
Some stuff is floating around showing a spike in searches for the shooters name from Israel before the attack. Could be BS.
ah… the spikes look kinda suspicious… almost exactly 12h apart… so probably just weird date related stuff, dont forget… google is an ai first company as well… so the data might be bad
They were always going to nuke the filibuster during trumps term. I’m shocked it lasted this long. This whole thing is starting to look like a big coordinated plan. Just hard to see what the end game would be.
No filibuster = SAVE America Act passes
Yeah, fake attempt
For sure, but not to MAGAts and a couple million more idiots with the right to vote…
How would a bulletproof room at your home protect you whilst you’re out for dinner?
He would hold every event in his magnificent
Hitler bunkerballroom and everyone would need to come to him.
They can do this whenever they would like to with a simple majority vote.
They call this “the nuclear option” today, because Trent Lott (notorious Republican) came up with the term; it works well for suppression of bills and scaring the proles, so bOtH pArTiEs have used the term ever since.
What did they call “the nuclear option” before Trent Lott (R.)? The constitutional option. not the same ring to it…
… and all to avoid the threat of filibuster… let them filibuster. They have five months off a year, they can always catch up. I posit that the vast majority of members who threaten filibuster are far too lazy and old to actually do it. Much of the “old guard” are over 70 years old, something like 120!
Anyways, they use this “nuclear option” to bypass the threat of a filibuster, and do this whenever they really want something to pass; then, it only needs a simple majority vote.
This parliamentary rule confuses the vast majority of people.
Remember, they can always pass a bill with a simple majority vote (that’s what makes Biden’s failure to raise minimum wage so frustrating), and even if they couldn’t, they don’t bother to filibuster any longer. Stop playing pretend.
They’re doing the absolute minimum amount of politics so that they have more time to trade stocks and attend “seminars” in The Virgin Islands on the taxpayer’s dime.
Exactly. at the end of the filibuster… THEY VOTE!
The filibuster needs 2/3 to break but it always ends eventually, and then it’s a simple majority.
All of congress just use this as a boogeyman for people who have never studied the rules.
