just read about newsom starting an anti-removal PAC that's allowed to receive unlimited funds.

ain't no laws against unlimited dark money on behalf of a sitting president or sitting governor.

when was the last time dems even uttered their once-clarion call of REPEAL CITIZENS UNITED?

i knew they would never really do anything about it, but the final nail in that coffin for me was watching liz warren, in the same campaign, go from claiming to reject PAC money to clinging on to a dark money billionaire funded PAC after to stay in the race as a spoiler when it was clear she was dead in the water

It takes a special kind of moron to sincerely believe that a billionaire would spend tens of millions to support an earnest, competent progressive champion candidate even when that candidate asks them not to, and that kind of moron is called a Warrenite

you have to be an absolute harry potter-brained naive child to believe the fiction that PACs dont coordinate with campaigns and an even bigger moron to believe that those rules prevent a candidate from clearly and unequivocally disavowing a PAC working on their behalf.

so it makes absolute sense why all the warrenites believed that

There was that one ex coworker that came out that claimed she was basically a pathological liar that had no real ethos other than whatever would get her ahead. If you look at what we at least know publicly it fits perfectly with her being an ex Republican that wrapped herself in phony leftism to gain support after using fake stories about her ethnicity and background in her personal branding and career.

Pakistan and India have fought without nukes. Argentina did not get nuked by Brits. US and Chinese vessels clash without nukes. Your argument doesn’t really stand up to military history if we analyze Cold War and the proxy wars and the times that nuke nations have fought against each other.

If we follow your logic, China and Russia may dowhatever they want because they have nukes and there’s no point in opposing them...

Also hey we get to do what we want because nukes!


Kind of like cops who do indeed kill unarmed people for no reason also sometimes protect from a home invasion and don’t shoot all the black people.
This is an argument about nuance, and a scale of grey, and I am having really hard time actually following you because it’s just these insane extremes with nothing in between.

democrats are trying really really hard to convince themselves its impossible to lose the recall this seems unwise

speaking of recall, give stimmy to defend Kshama cause there’s class warfare going on. some property developers are trying to recall her, ostensibly for doing cool things like trying to dethrone god or whatever

quote:


$10K Fundraising Drive
The right-wing, billionaire-backed Recall Campaign is escalating their dishonest attacks on Councilmember Kshama Sawant, recently sending out a huge 11 X 17 “Recall Report” mailer to 40,000 households claiming that their campaign is not funded by billionaires, but rather a “diverse mix of working people and seniors”. Ridiculously, they used a stock photo titled "Diversity People Group Team Union Concept" and attempted to pass it off as supporters of the recall. We can’t let big business buy City Hall with lies that go unanswered. Help us raise $10,000 in the next week to print out posters and new literature to respond to these attacks!

oh yeah? if kamala is so unappealing to voters to the extent that she polled so poorly she had to drop out before the first primary, receiving literally zero votes, then how come she's now the vice president?

yeah, thats right, i thought so :c00lbert:
