One of the funnier Q things is that Q himself straight up said JFK Jr is dead. So even when it comes to what Q says explicitly and not coded they have to twist it into the beliefs they've all decided on.

I always think about the 2014 Illinois Election for Governor. There were three left-leaning referendum items on the ballot:

Minimum wage increase - 63% yes
Birth control must be covered by health insurance plans - 63% yes
Increase taxes on millionaires - 60% yes

Republican Bruce Rauner - 50.3% :eng99:

Ballot referendums have become the most important way to get left-leaning legislation passed, especially marijuana legalization and voting rights stuff, because ~10% of the electorate supports leftish policies, but votes for Republicans. It’s insane because these Republicans don’t even PRETEND to have the same legislative goals and priorities as these voters!

Florida overwhelmingly passed re-enfranchisement of felons but just barely voted in DeSantis (and Scott to defeat a Democrat) and so DeSantis got to work making it impossible for felons to get the vote back.

Missouri overwhelmingly voted down right-to-work and voted in Hawley (who supports right-to-work) to kick McCaskill out of the Senate.

What are they gonna do anyway? Nothing is going to get past the Senate. I hate to say it but it pretty much is a waste of taxpayer money to do anything because the system is so broken that Mitch McConnell has the sole power to determine what even reaches the Senate floor. He just stopped doing his job unless it only benefits himself, Trump, or the GOP agenda, and nothing short of him either dying or getting voted out (lol) is going to change that.

The House does oversight not the Senate. They're not passing laws when they get these guys in for questioning. But if you just let these guys get away with (illegally) ignoring subpoenas then what's the point of electing you into a majority in the first place.

We live in a country with the only major political party that denies the reality of climate change so it's inevitable that QAnon becomes mainstream there.

Remember a few years back when republicans said that a president cant appoint a new supreme court justice during the last year of their term even though that isnt a real thing?

But yeah, fuuuuuuuuuuuuuck indeed.

You do know we had a conservative court anyway right

Pick I know you're not the brightest bulb but we've had a number of good decisions that went 5-4 because Gorsuch legitimately believes in textualism and doesn't seem to realize it's supposed to be an excuse to give conservative decisions an objective veneer.

An insane mind posted:

Ah yes. That must also be why the Republican Party has a list for future justices made for them by a federalist thinktank. To stop it all being so political.

My favorite thing is the guy that puts together the GOP Supreme Court (and federal court) picks is the executive vice president of the Federalist Society but always takes a leave of absence when the picks are being made so they have (im)plausible deniability that the Society isn't making the picks.

The guy's Leonard Leo and he's a tradcath fascist who attends mass every day including when he's traveling.
