Trump says DOJ will sue California over redistricting as he celebrates Texas effort
Trump says DOJ will sue California over redistricting as he celebrates similar Texas effort
I wonder if America will finally see what’s happening when he once again is handed a victory by the courts.
Who am I kidding.
Many of us can see but are powerless
Google this one quick trick about where political power grows that mods don't want you to know!
"Conservatism consists of exactly one proposition, to wit: There must be in-groups whom the law protects but does not bind, alongside out-groups whom the law binds but does not protect."
Conservatives are fundamentally bad people. Hypocritically supporting your in-group while harming your out-group is bad person behavior. Someone admitting they are a conservative should elicit the same response as someone saying they kick puppies or punch babies. It's inexcusable and has no place in polite society.
"Us vs. Them"
The problem is we're Americans. Conservatives are traitors.
Funny thing is, California has to go to the people to vote. Texas just did it. Who is more in the wrong here? Orange idiot strikes again.
After the California courts approved it to go forward. Everything by the book. That's an incomprehensible concept to him.
That’s the difference between a democracy and a dictatorship. I feel America is going to be broken up like this.
It already is.
If only. My fondest wish is that this kind of brinkmanship further stresses the already weak systems and further drives the most disillusioned to complete despondency and we usher in a complete and total collapse of the country. I'm further hoping that the knock-on effect of having the world's biggest economy go tits up is enough to strain and stress the other capitalist states and help usher in something new. While the revolution won't be bloodless or televised, the hope is that when the dust settles we're finally in a place to deliver on the promise of a better future.
And the Texas democrats had to be held at gunpoint to go to the special session
GOP just rubber stamps everything they want and we have to swim against a torrent of old man feces and ICE agents to pass basic tit-for-tat responses. Fucking toddlers don't understand how to function in a civilized society so now they stomp their feet on our necks.
And of course the courts are in his pocket so guess who will be allowed to go on their merry way and who won't? I fucking hate it here. Keep fucking around, Don. The find out is coming.
Keep fucking around, Don. The find out is coming.
Me:
walls are closing in on him now!!!
I fucking hate it here
I know it's not for everyone, but emigration is an option. I left the US 25 years ago and never regretted - and that was when Dubya only barely started turning the country fascist, and it was still normal and somewhat pleasant to live in. So just imagine how much better life is outside the US today...
If you have the possibility, you should consider it.
Lmfao this is so funny and sad at the same time, the US is already the second country I've lived in. Seem like anywhere you can go, dictatorships just happens anyways.
These types of things are so easily said, so much more difficult to do. The US was one of the easiest countries to immigrate to, and that took over a decade of waitlisting. Like they started with the paperwork before I was even born.
Like idk you can't just hope over to another country and expect everything to be perfect.
Like what next, go to the third country, start learning another language and history all over again, then some wanna be dictator gets elected, and I go running to a fourth country again? When does this ever end?
Like... unless they actually starts doing a Tiananmen, sometimes you just have to accept life isn't perfect. You can't always have a place to run to, because there aren't a whole list of countrys ready to accept an average normie that doesn't have any special skills like idk nuclear scientist or something..
I really wish I could but I'm just a worthless uneducated factory schmuck. Nowhere worth moving to would have me :/
Leaving the usa instead of fighting to fix it will only mean the entire world is doomed since the worlds strongest military is the united states, so itl only be a matter of time untill wherever you move is captured.
I wish I did but I really don't, along with countless others. It just doesn't make fucking sense to me. The globe could be fucking nice. There's no reason for all of this bullshit. It is the definition of insanity. /rant sorry
This is my plan. There is literally nothing for me in the United States anymore, and I don't want to be a party to what comes next. I think I need to get out before the clamp-down on leaving comes.
This is such a stupid take. "Don't like the way things are going? Move away and pretend it's not happening! Make your problems somebody else's!"
which would create precident to undo the texas redistricting if successful? right?
Hahaha no.
Precedent*
It should, but they won't see it that way
🤣
Federal Government has no say.
Sure they do. If congress passes a law preventing gerrymandering, it can. And I’d support it.
Any law against gerrymandering passed by this congress will only target democrat states. I live in Missouri, a state completely run by Republicans, and in the last decade we have passed referendums on independent redistricting only for us to pass another referendum that gave the authority back to the governor before any independent redistricting could happen. We also recently had a referendum on banning ranked-choice voting. It had a provision that said only citizens can vote, something that was already a law, but because this state is full of fox news addicted morons it passed. Republicans have no interest in improving elections. They'd get rid of them entirely if they could, which they'll be able to soon the way things are going.
"STOP THE COUNT"
