A problem is that I've seen a lot of solo-host gun things on YouTube, but I don't think I've seen many with negative charisma. Then on top of that, the implication is that "I am going to use this to kill you and your entire family, then I will haul your corpses into my crawlspace cloning lab, consume the half of you that doesn't take, then I shall be sustained until my reelection campaign in 2028. I will also gently caress the gun."

I mean we've had 10+ years of Tea Party/MAGA/Joe Manchin ads of them shooting guns at legislation and stuff, so for Master's ad to come across as :chloe: now to most people is pretty funny.

Yeah the fact that he said made in Germany twice kind of gave me white supremacist vibes, but maybe I'm overthinking it.

He also refers to it as the 007 gun a few times close together, I wonder if he was planning on editing out some and got lazy/forgot, or if he has a fetish for British spies and Germans. I could believe either, to be honest.

When an American of means seeking power gives off those vibes, you should not, in fact give them the benefit of the doubt.

Eh, in this case I think its more "check out this weird almost human talking about his gun" than "omg a politician threatening people with a gun."

It also isn't the gun Bond carried- wrong caliber.
Bond originally carried a Beretta .25 according right the Flemming novels; in the movies he carried a PPK/S in 32, not .22

Probably fair, but Sinema is also a gently caress and with the House potentially being decided by maybe a vote or two, it's likely that Congress overall isn't getting much done that's heavily partisan. Things were hard enough with a five-vote Democratic House lead and the next one is unlikely to be that high for either party!

It’s a slight improvement to gain margin in the Senate at the expense of margin in the House because the Senate has power over appointment and the House does not. Technically also over treaties, but those need two‐thirds and that ain’t happening.

It’s not worth it to lose the whole chamber, granted.

Also the camera person was good but wtf was up with the goddamn long as silence (lol) in the video? Like he's not saying a loving thing, why are there so few cuts? Why is it 2 minutes long? Why did he not give more reasons silencers are cool and a speech on why they should be taken off the NFA?

The gently caress was the point of the video?

Running up the score in the senate would be really important for trying to stuff as many people as they can in to dilute the bullshit that McConnell pulled. They don't have the balls to fix stuff at the SCOTUS level but it's still a really good thing if they manage it.

Totally can't wait for Hunter Biden to get impeached or whatever the gently caress right wing fever swamp bullshit they investigate for the next two years in the house.

Seattle Times calls WA-03 for Marie Gluesenkamp Perez (D), a major upset: https://www.seattletimes.com/seattle-news/politics/democrat-marie-gluesenkamp-perez-defeats-republican-joe-kent-in-wa-house-race/

quote:

The path to Gluesenkamp Perez’s improbable win started when six-term Republican U.S. Rep. Jaime Herrera Beutler last year voted to impeach Trump over his role in stoking the violent Jan. 6 , 2021 attack on the Capitol by a mob of his supporters seeking to halt certification of Joe Biden’s win.

Trump took revenge by endorsing Kent, who succeeded in ousting Herrera Beutler in the August primary, but went on to lose what had been considered a safe Republican seat.

She does! I'm in WA but not in her district, but from listening to other folks it sounds like her campaign was hyper-local and eschewed partisan culture war talking points - almost the exact opposite of Joe Kent.

It really was his race to lose. He's a trumpist, so we'll see if he keeps his word to honor the outcome, but it sounds like she's staying outside the recount margin so hopefully that curtails his appetite for bullshit.

Not likely. Republican voters love Trump, and this was borne out in the primaries. The fact that he's a perennial loser in the general elections isn't going to change that.
