They have been MASSIVELY trying to stop people from voting, what the fuck are you talking about you absolute nincompoop? They keep purging voters and trying to implement new ID requirements and closing polling places and encouraging people to “poll watch” (voter intimidation).

The rationale behind the most recent articles of impeachment were unprecedented and kind of nonsense.
kerrigan778@lemmy.blahaj.zoneto politics @lemmy.world•128 Democrats join House Republicans to block AOC, Al Green bid to impeach TrumpEnglish0·11 days agoThe reasoning is that basically every president in the last 5 decades or so has used the existing laws that generally permit presidents to use military force without first getting congressional approval. If that were unconstitutional then the laws should have been changed, but they’re allowed to stand, so it’s basically not. It’s a bit of a silly thing to try to impeach over. The precedence of that being constitutional is massive.
kerrigan778@lemmy.blahaj.zoneto World News@lemmy.world•145 people at France music festival report being pricked with syringes after online calls to target womenEnglish0·13 days agoI believe (and hope) that it’s just ambiguously written, the first part is discussing incidents throughout the country while the prefect was obviously just talking about Paris.
A lot of oddly worded bits in that article.

kerrigan778@lemmy.blahaj.zoneto World News@lemmy.world•Trump Announces Russia Will Strike Back at Ukraine After ‘Good Conversation’ With PutinEnglish0·1 month agoYes, that is how a war typically works. One side attacks, then another side counterattacks. Amazing.
I have seen the way people drive if there are no consequences for driving terribly and dangerously. I assure you it cannot be fixed with just speed/red light cameras, speed bumps, and social programs. (And honestly, cameras and especially speed bumps just make the road worse for everyone)
Those were absolutely not the only protests in Israel, those were the only protests in Israel that got coverage and support from the government. The protests against what was happening were violently suppressed and silenced as has been happening for quite some time. Yes the large anti netanyahu protests made little mention of Palestinians rather than ceasefire deals to bring the hostages home but that is how you bring people together politically.
