It's amazing to me that we are holding on to the Senate seat in AZ.

Can't Colorodo folks bombard them with phone calls that this ain't okay because it seems like we need to hold their feet to the fire or they'll never do anything good. Electing Democrats doesn't mean anything if they default to corporatism the second the take office. And unlike Republicans them being terrible corporate shills is not what they were elected to do so it just depresses turnout in the next election because they've downright proven that

If you live in CO, join your local DSA and push them to do things the way you want. There's so much potential here, and we can't waste it.

Between this, we also need to grant DC and PR statehood, ensure all states have early voting, paper ballots, and vote by mail with no lovely signature matching laws.

What else am I missing?

Oh yeah, bipartisan commissions to draw district maps, and an end to partisan gerrymandering.

I'm sure there's more electoral changes needed, but that would be a great start.

More universal for some than others still. We can start using that word when people can trust on their ballots being counted without fuckery.

Since when would a the OSC inform someone ahead of time that they're being indicted?

They didn't. If you read it carefully, he *Thinks* he is going to be indicted soon.

It's just more attempted grift. Remember that the OSC doesn't leak.

I really don't understand why Trump does what he does re: trying to force people out of his administration, Nielsen seems like she's been really effective at getting done what he's wanted done, and yet he wants her gone?

Is there something white house employees get after being there a year that he is trying to prevent? Also Nielson is going to get blamed for all the terrible immigration stuff going on with ICE, and he wants to dump her because it make shim look bad or something? I honestly don't know.

loving A Celebrity Death Match needs to come back in time for 2020 and have a special political season. It would bring some seriousness and civility back into the world.

I think I missed that this was a long brewing issue.

Russia has been pushing the treaty boundaries for a couple years at this point. Dissolving the treaty isn't the right answer through, it is to penalize Russia for breaking the treaty.

Wrong thread.

With Butina talking, Corsi and Stone squirming, the NRA going under, I feel like we are getting close to the end game. Who knows what will happen, but things are accelerating.

I hate to be that guy but I can't help it

My first thought is that this feels like that McCain campaign worker who pretended to be assaulted by a black Obama supporter, but the "B" on her face was backwards and she made it all up. Or when Morton Downey Jr. claimed that he was attacked in a bathroom at an airport by nazis but the swastika on his face was backwards. Or when Ryan Lochte claimed he was robbed at the Rio Olympics.

So it's 2 am, its well below freezing in Chicago, and two bad guys who just happen to be out wandering around wearing ski masks looking for a black or gay man to harass while carrying... bleach? Of course, it is possible, but I've become completely cynical about these things.
