More so because it's just really bizarre to see happening. Nostalgia4Infinity posted:oh thank god the toys will be okay

Someone correct me if I'm wrong on this bit, please. * Jeff Sessions is Trump's nominee for Attorney General. * As part of the confirmation hearing, that means the character and background of Jeff Sessions, nominee, is the topic of debate. That's the entire reason for the hearing, Senators are supposed to come out and say why a nominee is or is not a good person for the job. * There is also a Senate rule (#19) that says senators cannot "directly or indirectly, by any form of words impute to another Senator or to other Senators any conduct or motive unworthy or unbecoming a Senator." The purpose of this being that Senators are supposed to debate the merits of the issue at hand, not attack each other. * In this particular case though, the nominee that they are discussing is ALSO himself a Senator. So the Republicans have declared it off limits to say anything against his character, based on Rule #19. * The end result is that the hearing can continue, but the Republicans have begun to officially punish anyone saying negative things about the person they're supposed to discuss the positive and negative points of. Am I getting all of this right? redneck nazgul posted:You are correct. Robot Hobo fucked around with this message at 07:51 on Feb 8, 2017 |

Robot Hobo posted:Someone correct me if I'm wrong on this bit, please. Things like using procedure to shut up opponents is basically par for the Republican course right now. They are furiously attempting to manufacture ignorance about what Trump has done, is doing and will do so they can avoid their jobs of being the check and balance on a demagogic madman our constitution was designed for them to be. Turns out government doesn't work when one party decides tearing apart the institutions of the republic and looting the country is a higher priority than governing.

Failing "movie" "star" "Arnold" Schwarzenegger could have improved America big league, but went on Twitter instead. Sad! Schwarzenegger jokes that he wanted to "smash" Trump's "face into a table" quote:Before the show started, Schwarzenegger said he wouldn’t vote for Mr. Trump. The president remembered and later criticized Schwarzenegger for lower show ratings and his job as governor. Alexei Navalny: Russian opposition leader 'found guilty' quote:Russia's leading opposition leader, Alexei Navalny, has been found guilty of embezzlement, local media report.

Here's an interesting one: http://www.thedailybeast.com/articles/2017/02/08/big-game-u-s-soldiers-secret-hunt-for-jihadists-in-a-kenyan-forest.html SOCOM (and contractors) fighting al-shabaab in Kenya. Also, partner nations like UK, Israel, and Jordan helping out. Not going to cheer you up much though, TBeats, as there are allegations of human rights violations

Also I'm really curious to see if the Democrats can preserve this momentum and actually do something with it

The democrats getting small or large win in 2018 won't demoralize democrats. That is what is needed as a stepping stone for 2020.

I bet the democrats get taken over by silicon valley "liberals" and other mega donors and we fall further right. If people stay pissed off they might reform but the leadership seems staunchly opposed to that

Scare the people with repetitive stats and promise you're gonna make it all better, without laying out any specifics. "What is going on in Chicago? What is going on there? It needs to stop. And it needs to stop nationally." Then go off teleprompter and rant about how the wall is going to end crime and drug abuse. "Just ask Israel about walls, do they work? They work. Believe me."

Fortunately, that is something every candidate currently in the running for DNC chair has recognized. Elision in particular has been very vocal about needing to build the party from the bottom-up, but on the whole I think the party does recognize the need to completely revitalize state and local level organizations.
