https://twitter.com/splinter_news/status/971213210811551744 today Delaware's single house rep, Lisa Blunt Rochester voted for this as well, meaning 100% of Delaware's representation voted to gut what little protection we had in place post 2008. Delaware voted Obama +25% in 2008, +20% in 2012, and +15% Clinton in 2016. this is, on paper, a very blue state, and our representatives are completely poo poo. there's no credible primary challenge to Rochester this cycle, but we have a chance of removing Carper from office, and I'm pretty certain we'll try to primary Coons in 2020 too. gently caress these loving fucks. gradenko_2000 posted:it's when shitlibs believe Trump is a literal Russian stooge about as hard as conservatives believe Hillary Clinton murdered Seth Rich because they've all been poisoned by mainstream media he is but "russian" doesn't really mean he's a stooge of the russian people. he's an asset that belongs to various criminal organizations around the world, who are all unified in a goal of making money and loving over the poor.

it's very likely other dems who voted against the repeal would have otherwise supported it but didn't because they were safe in knowing the repeal would succeed. primary them all

I don't really disagree but the problem is that Rachel Maddow and her ilk are only ever focused on the Russian part of "Russian oligarchs" instead of the oligarchs part

gradenko_2000 posted:I don't really disagree but the problem is that Rachel Maddow and her ilk are only ever focused on the Russian part of "Russian oligarchs" instead of the oligarchs part I'm the sole Maddow defender in this forum, and I know I get poo poo for it, but I'm going to do it again. Yeah, Rachel is bad at times, and she's always kind of obnoxious. However, she is no where near as lovely the vast majority of cable news; she actually takes the time out to explain issues; she does not solely focus on Russia; and frankly, the Russian story is a big deal because the president is a blatant criminal (and even ignoring the socioeconomic or voter disenfranchisement angles of that story, that means justice is kind of irreparably hosed if he faces no consequences). She is mostly good, and even when discussing Russia, I think she does a decent job of making it clear that they are oligarchs first, their nationality is superfluous.

I can see where Nichael is coming from when they say that at least Maddow has a penchant for explaining things in a way that's easily digestible. I think that that makes her talents even more of a waste (compared to when she was using them to highlight opposition to the Obamacare repeal), but in any case it's why I threw in "and her ilk" in that it's an entire repertoire of center-right media that's being all this Russiagate poo poo.

Sometimes members of Congress switch votes because they made mistakes by not keeping up with what's being voted on during a long and quick chain of votes, though. I dug through C-SPAN's video associated with the example vote I linked, which occurs at 2:25:08, and it was a two minute vote via electronic device. If electronic devices are recording the votes, it should be even easier to record who changed their votes, as opposed to a clerk having a problem keeping up. In mid-2006, some Democrats proposed that after the first 30 minutes of a roll call vote exceeding 30 minutes, all vote activity should be publicly logged, and I don't know why they chose that arbitrary amount. In any case, we should have a log of Congressional vote switching displayed at the bottom of the page for every single Congressional vote. The Congressional leadership could simply do a better job of whipping and arranging votes before they happen, but it would make their job of doing that harder. Edit: Congressional Research Service report from 2008, page CRS-14 posted:As practiced today, a Member who desires to change his or her vote, after the initial 10 minutes of a 15-minute vote takes the appropriate well card to the “standing” tally clerk. The standing tally clerk then hands the well card to the “seated” tally clerk, who enters the vote change into the electronic voting system. Members who change their vote before the last five minutes are recorded by the electronic voting system as having changed their vote. Only Members who change their votes during the last 5 minutes are noted in the Congressional Record. During a five-minute or two-minute vote, Members may change their votes using the electronic voting stations throughout the duration of the vote. If that rule is still in effect, it's a very obscure rule, it isn't marked in the Congressional database how long each vote lasted, and if I were a journalist interested in vote changes, it'd be a real pain to spend a while looking up information that might not even be there. edit: "changed his vote" OR "changed her vote" or "changed their vote" is a good search query for finding votes where changes occurred in the Congressional record galenanorth has issued a correction as of 10:52 on May 23, 2018 |

Democrats believe strongly in giving a lot of money to very rich first-world people and dropping a lot of bombs on very poor third-world people. Nichael posted:i don't doubt it, but almost the entirety of american news media is right wing. she's merely among the better of the cable news personalities, and she makes a decently informative show.

Its funny how it is likey a few Bernie people will get in even while the dems gently caress this up. Like really we need them to gently caress this up as that will mean even shitheads who call themselves “moderate” in the house will likley move for a leadership shakeup.

Money is a disease and getting paid $30,000 a day to sling your opinions across the airwaves can't be healthy for anybody. Plus you have to sell your soul to comcast or whoever and tow the company line for the privilege.

2018 is really the last chance for the democrats to show they can do the bare minimum of an opposition party. They have several advantages (even though the economy hasn't technically cratered yet, just for the bottom half of Americans) and if they can't win control of at least 1 chamber, well then frankly we deserve the GOP.
