I highly doubt 85% of registered voters miss the election because of scheduling conflicts. You can sign up for mail-in ballots if you have an irregular schedule. Most people vote once every four years, if at all. We should be voting twice every two years for federal elections alone.

Edit: I forgot .ml is anti-voting. What a bunch of finger-pointing losers. Lol

Yup. Primaries are how we do something about it. You know how many times I voted for someone in the primary other than Schumer in the last 28 years?

Democratic primaries see less than 15% turnout in congressional elections, yet people wonder why nothing changes. Do you know who always shows up? Retirees, and they typically love the incumbent centrist.

This is the level of integrity and honesty we’re dealing with here.

I agree with you if she has a bad voting record overall. This vote alone is meaningless. The point was to get it on record. An impeachment hearing would do more harm than good, knowing full well we don’t have the votes for removal.

Ah. Eww.

Oh no. Why is that?

They’re the most effective way to increase our numbers. Everyone has an opinion on the internet, yet most people still watch protests on their phones. The people who sit out protests at times like this are often the same ones who sit out midterm elections.

These are the third articles of impeachment this term. They’re not going anywhere until after next November.

Nah. Al Green and Shri Thanedar’s articles were filed and shelved in the same day as well. They’re just doing it to have them on record. It’s a waste of Senate floor time when they would be conducting oversight hearings, challenging provisions in Republican bills, and collecting the information needed for the ACLU to take these cases to the courts.

Despite the constant criticism, people who watch CSPAN are fully aware of how Democrats are using every last second of their floor time to challenge this regime.

Fair point. I wasn’t familiar with the Irish Star. After looking it up, it seems you’re right. I only see The Daily Beast and Times Now corroborating. I’ll delete the post until more information surfaces.

These aren’t ICE agents. It was US Customs and Border Protection. It’s been legal to search your phone at ports of entry since the Bush administration. Trump is the first one to use it to persecute political dissidents.

My comment about The Hague is referring to the NATO summit in The Netherlands happening today and tomorrow.

Otherwise, I expect he’ll fuck off to a non-extradition Middle Eastern country after his presidency. He’s building enough resorts to have several options.

Dropping F-bombs to the press, calling AOC stupid, and Schumer a Palestinian this morning. Dude’s gonna be shitposting the whole way to The Hague. Can’t wait for the next two days of NATO summit highlights from this very stable genius.

I’d try it. Is the skin meant to be eaten after pickling, or does it remove easily?
