3·3 months agoone of the better articles on this issue. the usual obvious propaganda is useless. this is somewhat thoughtful.
6·4 months agothats a pretty astute observation. still, narrowly missing a “state-level charlie kirk” because the fascists are just fucking bad at the job is not the type of comfort I hope for.
but… see! v0t3r Fr4uD! now praise your orange jeebus.
there will be violence from a small, but thoroughly brainwashed group of fascists.
This is the aftermath of the supreme court’s disastrous 6-3 ruling in Louisiana v Callais, decided less than a month ago, which gravely weakened the Voting Rights Act’s protections for Black representation. Ever since, Republicans have resembled eager children on Christmas morning, tearing our electoral maps to shreds.
Louisiana
Louisiana is set to eliminate one of its two Black-majority districts. The court let
Alabama
The court let Alabama erase one of its two Black-majority districts before this fall’s primaries.
Mississippi
In Mississippi, the Republican state senator who chairs the Medicaid committee said this week that it was time to “erase Bennie Thompson’s district”.
you utter trash. you absolute excrement of humanity. we will remember every one of you racist fucks. retribution may be delayed, but it will come and your graves will be pissed upon for generations, you loathsome, useless waste of oxygen.
used to use anysoft keyboard, but development seems to have died a while ago. so I got on the heliboard train like many others. preferred anysoft because of flexibility, but heliboard is open and works well enough.
get this man on a goddamn ballot somewhere.
its not, really. and its something you get used to and come to appreciate.
the city analogy is a great one - every town has its own flavor. many towns build roads (federation) between them so all inhabitants can easily travel to each other… as a city.
some towns self-isolate or are isolated from other towns (defederated) for all sorts of reasons and, if you want to see what they have to offer, you can set up a house directly in that town or another town with a road to (federated with) that town. it really does allow some very cool places to thrive - like the internet was before it was purchased.
lemmy{dot}.world chooses to keep things pretty… bland? thats their right, but there is quite a bit of quality spiciness out there if you have a house in a well connected (widely federated) town or decide to set up a few additional houses in some of the more exotic towns.
does anyone have a federation graph up and running right now? should be easy-ish based on instance published federation lists.
“I think the audience of receptive Republicans is a lot bigger than what most folks would think in the Republican party,” Duncan said. “It’s not fun to have to defend Donald Trump.”
W.T.A.F?!
any time I think there just might be some minor redemption for these ghouls, their inner bootlicker congeals and oozes out of their putrid, flapping face-hole.
why did you defend this narcissistic, child raping, snake-oil pimping, murderous megalomaniac in the first place? it certainly wasn’t fun for any of his victims for decades and isn’t fun now. fuck all the way off, you useless sycophantic piece of shit.
the us auto market is seriously cooked. just on the economics alone, every repubiican should be up against the wall right now.
true multi-polar, here we come.
after 2024 I finally accepted that the majority of voters around me will accept
almostanything as long as their “comfy” little suburban lives are maintained for them by their overlords.depressing as fuck.
bullshit.
CHAPTER 33—WAR POWERS RESOLUTION
50 USC Ch. 33: WAR POWERS RESOLUTION From Title 50—WAR AND NATIONAL DEFENSE
§1544. Congressional action (a) Transmittal of report and referral to Congressional committees; joint request for convening Congress
Each report submitted pursuant to section 1543(a)(1) of this title shall be transmitted to the Speaker of the House of Representatives and to the President pro tempore of the Senate on the same calendar day. Each report so transmitted shall be referred to the Committee on Foreign Affairs of the House of Representatives and to the Committee on Foreign Relations of the Senate for appropriate action. If, when the report is transmitted, the Congress has adjourned sine die or has adjourned for any period in excess of three calendar days, the Speaker of the House of Representatives and the President pro tempore of the Senate, if they deem it advisable (or if petitioned by at least 30 percent of the membership of their respective Houses) shall jointly request the President to convene Congress in order that it may consider the report and take appropriate action pursuant to this section. (b) Termination of use of United States Armed Forces; exceptions; extension period
Within sixty calendar days after a report is submitted or is required to be submitted pursuant to section 1543(a)(1) of this title, whichever is earlier, the President shall terminate any use of United States Armed Forces with respect to which such report was submitted (or required to be submitted), unless the Congress (1) has declared war or has enacted a specific authorization for such use of United States Armed Forces, (2) has extended by law such sixty-day period, or (3) is physically unable to meet as a result of an armed attack upon the United States. Such sixty-day period shall be extended for not more than an additional thirty days if the President determines and certifies to the Congress in writing that unavoidable military necessity respecting the safety of United States Armed Forces requires the continued use of such armed forces in the course of bringing about a prompt removal of such forces. © Concurrent resolution for removal by President of United States Armed Forces
Notwithstanding subsection (b), at any time that United States Armed Forces are engaged in hostilities outside the territory of the United States, its possessions and territories without a declaration of war or specific statutory authorization, such forces shall be removed by the President if the Congress so directs by concurrent resolution.
next they are going to claim that “hostilities” only count during the time that munitions are exploding and physically dismembering children in Iranian schools.

yeah. redemption arcs are possible, but chickie needs to spend a few decades in the wilderness atoning through grass roots organizing and on-the-fucking-ground direct action.
would love to hear the local background on this when you have time.
While Sanchez has welcomed the Pakistani-brokered ceasefire, he also said Spain would “not applaud those who set the world on fire just because they turn up with a bucket,” in reference to the U.S. administration.

“Allowing this regime to enrich in the future would be an affront to all those murdered by the regime since this war started…” Graham continued…

“You grew up in South Africa,” Lara Trump, Trump’s daughter-in-law and Fox News host, said in the new interview. “You lived during a period of Apartheid. I’m sure you’ve seen a lot of horrific things. So to be called a Nazi by people, to be made out to be this monster, that must be really hard for you.”
motherf*cker, you and your ilk were the oppressors. everything pre and post indicates that it was perfectly fine with you and yours. “white” washing at its finest. now, gtfo!
the man is legitimately on fire.
