Without one, that funding can carry on into perpetuity however there are plenty of reasons to leave things funded. In short, this is a very complicated problem with a very simple proposed solution so unforseen consequences will be high.

They then were learned on how tariffs work Bud I realize you're hella high on copium but the king of decorum itself would get trounced by Trump.

Heard someone at work unironically call Musk "real life Tony Stark" today. There was something about Musk and Vivek wanting to cut 75% of the federal workforce as well and the current reddit ATC cope is that we obviously wouldn't be included in that. Just the dumbest motherfuckers.

Much like their thoughts about Donnie, most of these people only have "Elon Musk" in their heads when the folks that did actually research into the real Elon Musk hate his guts. Very similar to the businessowners that think they have the "good" undocumented immigrants/migrants that definitely won't be caught up in Donnie's dragnet.

Yeah I did a quickskim before my sanity protection mechanisms kicked in and the main argument seems to be... people undervoting downballot? That's completely and entirely normal. It's BlueAnon poo poo. Example: Kamala lost Michigan and Dearborn notably, but Slotkin, ex-CIA and all, still won Dearborn and Michigan Senate. It's not because she did better than Kamala! Slotkin actually got fewer votes than Kamala did, but the Republican candidate got even fewer than Donnie did. Also how Democrats also expanded their leads on the state supreme court. There are shitloads of voters who only vote in the topline races, then ignore the rest. We constantly got questions of "hey, I didn't research this other poo poo, can I leave it blank?" Undervotes are completely normal. Also, in case it's mentioned, there weren't "15 million missing votes", that was an artifact of mail-in counting. That also knocked Donnie below 50% of the popular vote, not that it matters. Counting takes a long time!

Hell, I probably contributed to downballot undervoting in my suburban precinct just because there came a point in my ballot where the rest of the races had Republicans running unopposed and there wasn't any loving point in bothering to touch the boxes.

I dunno, we already had the testimony of the person who was 17 and the Republicans had no issue with it and the Democrats didn’t seem to have much of a problem either because they’re still playing coy about releasing the report.

It's not on the Democrats, as the Ethics Committee is split 6-6. Report won't get out officially if Republicans don't want it to be. Unknown about the ability to leak it by Democrats, as the panel is currently republican-chaired. Though this is all kind of a moot point, as details are leaking and apparently a hacker got access to the general information in relation to a civil suit of Greenberg, Gaetz's party hookup guy. Pretty clear that Gaetz boned 17-year olds in a state where 18 is the statutory age, but it's sounding like Gaetz didn't ask/know ages while Greenberg did. But on net, the whole point is that none of this matters if Republicans decide it doesn't matter. It's on Democrats to make a gigantic stink about it, but if Gaetz gets 50 of 53 Republican votes in the Senate, he's in.

Grip it and rip it posted:They don't exist for the purpose of reining in federal politics. They definitely still exist. Well, to one half of the political structure they exist as a weapon to attack their opposition with. Still existence, so yeah, they're around but not really as a high-minded ideal to which we aspire and which we should constrain our behaviors by.

It seems that they can only win When Bush or Trump implode the economy, and they can't keep that momentum going into a second administration. They may be the more competent at governing but the fact that they're this dogshit at politics is unacceptable.
