Yep it's totally cool to watch a loved one lose their ability to reason or even hold a simple conversation just because their political beliefs are opposed to yours. All the while wondering if it's genetic and might be yours or others in your family's future.


gently caress off.

Yep that’s the intended takeaway from my comment.

“After President Trump revoked the use of military aircraft to travel to Afghanistan, the delegation was prepared to fly commercially to proceed with this vital trip to meet with our commanders and troops on the front lines,” Hammill said.

Overnight, he added, a new State Department threat assessment indicated “that the President announcing this sensitive travel had significantly increased the danger to the delegation and to the troops, security, and other officials supporting the trip. . . . This morning, we learned that the Administration had leaked the commercial travel plans as well.”

“She wants to destroy your Second Amendment,” he said at a Miami rally. “I think what we should do is she goes around with armed bodyguards, like you have never seen before. I think that her bodyguards should disarm, right? Right? Think they should disarm. Immediately, what do you think? Yes? Yes. Yeah. Take their guns away. She doesn’t want guns. Let’s see what happens to her.”

Trump has previously said “the Second Amendment people” could stop the Democratic nominee appointing anti-gun lawyers to federal courts. The remarks were widely condemned, but the Trump campaign denied he had intended it as a means to instigate violence. The Secret Service followed up on the comments by meeting with the Trump campaign.

It’s mostly that she's rich as all gently caress and clearly will not meaningfully work against her class interests. She's solidly left socially which is great but she's not your friend if you're interested in socialist economic policies.

Right, but suddenly a lot of people are acting like she's suddenly changed since the election, I don't expect the rich-rear end slice of SF she reps to just stop electing their own any time soon so that just falls within the "accept the things I cannot change" category but yeah she's party leader and now speaker for a reason and it isn't just because she's from SF

Pelosi got a public option through the house. Some people want her to push more left policies more often. That's fine. But I'm guessing that we're going to see more leftward policies out of the house now that she's working with more leftward representatives.

There's really no point in even hoping for / discussing policy. There will be next to zero actual bills coming out of Congress for these two years. Stuff's going to just die in the Senate, which is way better than the poo poo bills that WERE coming out of Congress!

The most we can generally hope for is a government approaching an open status and no default when the debt ceiling gets breached again.
