I feel bad for falling for the Kamala Harris hype train and voting for her for Senator in 2016. Didn't do my research. Of course we all thought 2020 would be a second H Clinton term election so it was a little different...

I think even him, through the brain worms, understands "you lose lots of money very fast". If he decides to do his tantrum routine, I bet Senate Republicans overrule him on this one.

A kid wants to ditch school because they are bored or tired and Kamala Harris sends a letter to their house threatening them and their parents with prison and then giggles about it in a speech about how cool her badge looked on her letterhead. gently caress her forever. I didn't like her before but she is a piece of poo poo.

Uh, Lorena Sanchez probably wasn't much better dude.

I went to bat for her because I felt that weird hotepy dude was deliberately misconstruing her message yesterday, but this video is pretty much the hard stop on her campaign. She's gonna need a few years of progressive legislation to even start to balance that out.

A good barometer for how bad a candidate is is how hard certain people go to avoid discussing any of their history. It was the same with Beto as it is with Harris that if you even look at their past people start screaming about party disunity, slander, and other such nonsense.

Like jfc that is some seriously cold poo poo. Imagine being in that mother's shoes waking up on the streets with your three kids, about to head off to the first of your jobs and some dipshit cop informs you that if your kids don't show up at school you're going to prison and then your kids are going to go into the absolutely wonderful and totally not a literal child abuse hellhole that is the california fostercare system

Then, jk, we're dropping the charges, I guess you just needed some services instead. Just the act of bringing charges in that situation is so loving sadistic and cruel and terrifying.

And if I was literally any candididate running against her, I'd find that woman and get some footage of her talking about her experience

The only good thing I can think about with regards to the eventual debt ceiling fight is that once Trump fucks over paying our debt out, we won’t be able to invade Venezuela when the military no longer has two cents to run together.

In all honesty, if Trump does take the country hostage via debt ceiling for the wall and other heinous poo poo, we’re hosed and will have to give into his demands.

If you guessed the Debt Ceiling, good job! It’s coming up on March 1st.

Trump gonna default on the government because that’s how you get leverage.

Reminder that the financial computers which run on fortran assume that the US gov will pay its debt forever and that not paying is like changing some constant in physics.

Well thats what some fin and economy nerds say, who knows wht will happen if it happens.

This is what I mean by replacing congress with strippers would be a huge improvement. I'm positive any stripper in the country could come up with a better solution for 'single homeless mom of 3 has occasionally truant kids' than 'highlight her plight by pressing charges and threatening to throw her kids in the loving california foster system'

btw subtext of that situation is that the truant kid(s) were probably working to help the family get enough money to get off the streets. If you're the oldest kid in a family with a single mom and two younger siblings and you're on the streets, you're by default acting as the co-parent for your siblings.

Seriously. Bernie is the only one that has done even the barest effort of building up good faith regarding the stuff that NEEDS to be done to stave off another right wing maniac. Booker is spending his time going to charter schools in 2019. It's an absolute mess. Obama said a lot of stuff he immediatly abandoned after getting elected and if that happens another time we are hosed. It's an absolutely huge concern.
