If only someone could break through to Trump and explain to him how good the ratings would be were such a rally televised, it just might work.

Gah, I knew it! Curse you deep state!!
Literally 0% chance to change for good if all that happens is bearing witness to corruption and wrongdoing.
This is doing something. It’s hitting on the root of so many problems which have arisen in the US since the corporate takeover of government began in 1978 in partnership with the Supreme Court. I applaud AOC for this!
bit of an overgeneralization there mate
Reminds me of this classic gem:
Ah yes, the milkshake-mustache. So manly, very hot.
Hey now, the Dems tried to ban bump stocks, but those mean old republicans just wouldn’t let them. Nothing else they could possibly do sweetie.
He did remove their supreme court’s ability to try him for his crimes, his party is the majority in Israeli parliament, he’s disbanded the war cabinet, and they’re actively trying to push back the next election date. So yeah, pretty much a dictator.
Netanyahu would lose a massive amount of power if President Biden would stop sending him so much money and weapons. Even the threat of doing so would have a huge impact. So arguably, a puppet dictator is more accurate. Although the way they interact would lead one to believe Bibi is the actual puppet master.
You’re right. It’s almost like we could benefit from some sort of…consumer financial protection bureau.
Joking aside, this is a hard problem to solve with multinational corporations running the show. I certainly don’t think we sufficiently regulate corps in the states, quite the opposite really - they buy politicians in a legalized bribery scheme we call “campaign finance donations,” and are never held accountable for this type of predatory behavior.
This problem is 10x worse on an international scale, no idea how to solve for it. Maybe something like the TPP could have helped but not sure.
Why is nobody finding the “Autist Autocracy” interesting as well?!
I strongly suspect his dementia-riddled brain will be too far gone for another run in 4 years. Hope so anyway.
Hmm, I gave up on Picard after S02. Do you think the uptick in S03 is because they legitimately improved things, or because the only ones left watching didn’t know any better?
Yeah, he was literally bragging about it on the quarterly earnings calls as it was happening. They’ve only paused the price gouging now that it’s a hot topic, don’t think for a minute prices will go back down or that this won’t resume in a year or so when there’s some other distraction available.
We need regulations to stop this predatory behavior, and we desperately need to break up monopolies like Kroger, if this problem is to be mitigated.
And so, the brown shirts are making them think twice. What a sad day for America as domestic terrorism wins.
Paul Pelosi or Gretchen Whitmer likely have something to say on the matter as well.
Should have done it during Obama’s first term, when we had the votes. But it was deemed “not a priority” after we voted them into a supermajority.
So yeah, I think your skepticism of Schumer’s intent here is warranted.
JFC, win_blows_.
Trump had 61 court cases alleging election interference and voter fraud, and every last one was immediately thrown out during discovery because he provided no evidence. Thankfully completely bullshit claims do still fall flat in the us justice system.
However, the fake electors scheme was a very real coups attempting to subvert democracy, and we have plenty of evidence on it. I’d love for Harris to appoint an aggressive AG who will work tirelessly to ensure this doesn’t happen again because of the consequences for treason.
