To be fair...it was never going to pass. But, still. What a way to symbolically roll over and expose your belly for scritches.
Yup.
As always. They're perfectly willing participants in fascism.
But also, it's not like this had legs anyway.
I wish Joe Biden was alive to see this.
What do you mean? Didn't you know he actually won the election and is controlling everything behind the scenes. Trump is just on cleanup duty. He didnt bomb Iran. Biden did!
Um...
If you'd like to see how your rep voted: https://www.govtrack.us/congress/votes/119-2025/h175
Goddammit.
Well, time to type another strongly worded email I guess.
If his elderly dad weren't so fucking connected to the war machine, we'd have a chance of replacing him.
I wonder how many other reps are resting on laurels like that...
Thank you. I went to see how angry I should be in Washington and went away planning to write a thank you.
Came to post the Nays but you put the link for everyone, thanks:
Can't believe so many terrible people are in Congress, only 79 people..

The political system is completely fucked. Going grassroots with direct action is currently the best way to both resist, and build horizontal decentralized power that isn't prone to corruption.
This method would not only work in the US, but anywhere in the world.
Union Suggestions:
If we put in the work, we can resist this and we can win. Look at how effective these methods were when used in Chile in 2019.. If we completely reject the political system and rebel on a mass scale, there is NOTHING they can do to stop us.
At this point if Nazis come to my door I’ll shoot them. Otherwise I’m not going to join up with morons it took even longer than where we’re at right now to figure it out. They can fight the battle with their fellow stupids that let it get as far as it does.
“When they go low, we go high”
Straight into the ceiling fan...
I’ve always hated that quote.
When they go low, we go lower and take out their kneecaps.
It made sense in its time. I think even Michelle Obama has disavowed it at this point
... with thunderous applause.
treasonous assholes
Why.
Controlled opposition.
Remember, these guys have all worked together for decades and have all the same donors.
Maybe they could stop shooting themselves in their own feet?
Nah, capitulating to fascists is the neoliberal job. That and fucking over as many poor people as possible in order to funnel money to the already rich. Just look at all those PPP "loans" that saw zero clawback from the huge corpos that received most of the money.
... that, and impeachment is a waste of time. Provably, demonstrably, a complete waste of time.
Wait? What?
