That’s what the world said after Hiroshima Nagasaki too keep living in your cocoon Andrea

You're calling for a military overthrow of the United States government and I'm the one in a cocoon.

Got it.

Remember when they frog-marched Trump out of the White House in handcuffs over Russiagate? Good times that need to be repeated!

NS- We will only escape this evil via our military leaders via military coup on the white house.. They are the only ones with the ability, and if they want to do it right, they also need to march into the Supreme Court and arrest 5 justices on the spot. Roberts, thomas, alito, gorsuch and kavanaugh. I know this is anti-American in all forms, but it is the necessary and only option I see to get the criminals out out of power... Anyone with half a brain can see that the Secret Service is complicit with the staged events of Trump assassination attempts. Many Secret Service members will die in this coup as well as true patriotic American soldiers, but unfortunately, it will become necessary if we want to take back our country.

Wow. Just wow.

Democrats have panicked all year at the possibility that California’s primary rules could shut them out of the governor’s office despite the state having an overwhelmingly Democratic electorate.
Now a Democratic strategist is launching a campaign to repeal the California primary system, an effort that is likely to attract serious backing not only from labor unions, but also from some Republicans and third-party organizations.
Under the current system, which has been in place for 15 years, candidates of all parties run on the same primary ballot, and the top two finishers advance to the general election. In some races, particularly in areas that are extremely liberal or extremely conservative, two Democrats or two Republicans have faced off against each other in November.
The new proposal, filed Friday with state elections officials, would end the nonpartisan top-two primary and revert to a traditional primary in which one candidate from each party advances to the general election.
It would have to be approved by voters, and backers are hoping to place it on the 2028 ballot. If approved, it would have its first widespread use in 2030 elections, including the governor’s race.

When we're losing, we'll change the rules.

No shame.

None.

Massachusetts and Rhode Island wouldn’t have a gop house seat unless you specifically gerrymandered it to create one. Probably Rhode Island too. The gop votes are too dispersed.

Maine could probably support one with naturally drawn districts. NH has two districts and the state does swing. CT I’m not really sure.

Fair points, but the whole "Muh Democraceeee!" fails in any apportionment which doesn't reflect the proportion of Dem vs GOP voters. When the GOP has 40% of the electorate in Massachusetts and 0% of the representation, all you're doing is making the case FOR gerrymandering.

Now do New England.

“Maine Kampf.”

My partner just asked, "What's so funny?"

NBC assures us that it was a "Civil Rights Rally"

I'm enjoying "Your Friends and Neighbors" on Apple TV. There's a scene where the protagonist talks about yachts and their relative sizes and status. Funny.

Any update on condition/cause?

(Probably) not illegal, despite the "Director Kash Patel" branding.

Horrible, horrible look. For sure.

Do you think someone might have pointed this out?

Planter should write a book called "My Struggle."

That should cinch it for him.

Do you think he does, considering the overwhelming presence of JD and Marco?
