I think the issue the last times was that Democrats took Omar’s advice too closely – “If you come at the King, you’d best not miss”, so they tried to focus their efforts on particular things they thought they could build a compelling story about: the Ukraine/Russia stuff in the first impeachment, and Jan 6 in the second. They didn’t fathom how Republicans would just ignore it all.

I used to be in the camp that if given a House majority, Democrats shouldn’t go there again. But I’ve changed my mind. They should definitely go there but this time put it all in. Every single thing that we all shook our heads and said “They wouldn’t have let anyone else getaway with it”. Send over 150 counts individually cited, with receipts.

If nothing else, if Republicans are in charge and summarily dismiss it, all the crazy shit they let him get away with will be on the record. And, if somehow Democrats gain control of the Senate, too, I’m sure Chuck (or whoever else is running things) will have no problem forcing a vote on each charge individually. Call it "Infrastructure Month " in the Senate…

Put it in his diaper

I will grant that it’s possible that 4 years as VP and a Presidential campaign, she might be a better candidate than back then. But I’d like to see her prove it in a Primary.

But, that Primary may very well end up being engineered for Gavin to win, like all the rest of the Democratic Primaries have been engineered for the Next One Up recently.

He might like that, though

You’re right of course, thats what I get when shit posting too quickly and misreading “Senior” for “Senator”…

“If it was my choice, I wouldn’t put any of that money into the arch,” Simpson added, when pressed on whether Pentagon funding should be used at all.

He’s a Senator Member of Congress, he is supposed to have 1/100 of a choice in the matter.

But he knows it will never come to having to make a choice like that, because Trump’s just gonna do it, and he’s gonna let him.

He probably means a legal probe, doesn’t he?

Trump has no allies, only people who tolerate him in the hopes of making money off of the “true believers” who follow Trump like a deity.

Who gives a shit what he says

Just enough of Congress (and the Supreme Court) to let him get away with shit like this.

JD Vance is Peter Thiel’s ventriloquist dummy. Anything that comes out of Vance’s mouth is only due to the words being supplied by his puppetmaster (and the hand up his ass making his mouth move).

Thiel founded Palantir, which is just as much in the AI soup as the rest of them, but Palantir (AFAIK) doesn’t have a Public AI, they only use it for government, corporate, and military stuff. It wouldn’t surprise me if Thiel wants to kneecap all the other AI companies while getting his a pass.

Yet another headline I am disappointed to find out is only a metaphor…

Not common at all. Wikipedia lists only 4 cities, and one of those was never actually used as a living space by any of the mayors.

They seem to all be gifts from a rich person to the city.

I don’t agree at all with the idea of sending kids to a protest like this, but I just want to point out that “Mamdani’s home” right now is really Gracie Mansion, the official residence* of the NYC Mayor**.

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Gracie_Mansion

*(Unless said mayor is getting divorced, then his soon-to-be ex wife kicks him out…)

**(Or, unless the mayor is a gazillionaire with his own mansion that’s better, thank you very much)

My point is that it’s not like they doxxed him, they all know where he lives.

In a few weeks, we’ll find that the Kennedy Center has been sold in a “bankruptcy” sale at below-market price to real estate developer John Barron…

All Hillary did was call them all deplorable, and they all clutched their pearls over it.

They’ve removed committee assignments from members who do dumb things before

If the Democrats win an extra seat, they should double dog dare him to switch. Make him Chairman of the committee for naming post offices.

Because ICE has that app that can tell a person’s citizenship by their picture. Their plan will be to harass and arrest anyone their app tells them looks foreign. Even if that person has their ID, and proof of citizenship, ICE will just tell them their ID is fake and confiscate it.

YouTube/Google doesn’t have a broadcast license, so can’t be harassed in quite the same manner by the FCC. Although Google has a history of premature compliance…

So, they’re taping the interview along with the rest of the show’s content, but not broadcasting it? Are they going to show dead air in its place? Or maybe a QR code to the interview, along with a countdown timer? I don’t think even Jimmy has the balls for that, but it would be awesome.
