The Democrats needed to all vote against this bill. And I don’t just mean in the Senate. The House too.

Then why have Congress vote at all? Why didn’t Trump just use an EO to put all the provisions he favored in place?
Right. Let’s vote out every Dem who voted for the bill.
What’s that you say?
For me, the article at the link has been replaced by one about South Korea, so the thumbnail is of the wrong leader.
Fuck, I’m old. 30 years ago was the 90s.
Wow, and while they have 6 whole years of coal reserves left in their country. Very forward-thinking to switch to oil.
In contrast, the US has about 400 years of coal reserves.
(Yes, I know Ireland had been importing coal)
There is still gay marriage in this country, and abortion was legal for 30 years. Very, very recently we have taken several steps to the right. Things have become much more open socially.
It’s good to see Lee Jae Myung cracking down like this. His nation may be surrounded on three sides by cold sea, but that won’t stop him!
Thank you very much. I’ve been vindicated.
Oh, OK. Imperial violence. Got it. If you define things narrowly enough, you can never be a hypocrite.
The article broadens the connection to violence, not just bombs dropped from aircraft. Qatar has for years supported Islamists in the region, including the Houthis and Muslim Brotherhood. Qatar, like this article, is aligned with Iran.
Rich coming from the Qatar.
Is Bob Vylan’s name intentionally based on Bob Dylan and meant to rhyme with it?
I blame the West for occupying Hong Kong so long that it corrupted their citizens to believe in democracy and capitalism.
That’s a fair assessment, actually. I think many voters often want change or don’t want change, and they don’t really consider which direction the change goes.
If anything bad is happening, whether it’s the current administration’s fault or the previous, they’ll be interested in trying something different.
And then in Obama’s second term he just had the incumbent’s advantage. Then neoliberal Biden, VP to Obama, won on change again. Then Trump won on changing back.
You may just be rationalizing because you don’t like neoliberal, so you think no one does.
That’s a narrative pushed here a lot, but I haven’t seen good evidence it is true.
Wasn’t Obama a neoliberal shitbag by your standards?
Jesus, upon reading the headline I thought this was the result of a massive cartel killing. It was unusual they would dump the corpses at a crematorium, so I pondered it for a moment. Then I thought I had better check the article.
It’s another case of a crematorium administration getting overwhelmed and mishandling bodies. Now, to be fair, the article mentions that the getting overwhelmed part could be due to all the drug murders in Ciudad Juarez. That’s TBD.
You’ve really jumped the shark with this one.
No. But apparently we should be talking about reforming the Democrats when discussing this bill passed by almost every Republican.
