Sinema is like the Civil War

When you have a basic familiarity with her, you know she’s an idiot

When you research her actions, you know she is enacting a subtle, carefully planned scheme to gain personal wealth and power at the expense of Democratic national priorities

When you fully understand the life and career of this woman, you know she’s an idiot

We had a ballot initiative (Measure 113) in 2022 which passed by over 68% that prohibits members of congress from running for re-election after their current term if they have 10 or more absences.

The wording was challenged by the Republicans but the intent of the initiative was pretty clear. Some are challenging it in federal court but I don’t think it’s going to go any better for them.

I mean, did you change a quorum to be 50%+1 rather than somewhat more than that

The last part sounds like it's saying that having the "wrong" gender on your license at any point means they can go after you for fraud, not just when you apply for a new license.

It sounds like you could get in trouble if the gender marker on your license doesn’t match the gender marker on your other identifying documents. Or if a cop thinks your gender marker and presentation don’t match

Don't forget that a lot of Democratic voters do want something to be done about the border without giving much thought to what exactly, so telling them "we tried to do something about the border, but Republicans stopped us" is actually what they want to hear

The daily beast story on this is wild and I cannot fathom what the gently caress even happened here.

Like I *get* wohl's previous grifts. They were stupid and the guy should be in prison but the through line is absolutely there in a way that makes sense in a very stupid way. Elizabeth Warren's bdsm slave? Stupid, but I get what they are going for.

This one is just bizarre. They 'entrapped' a guy with a regular rear end tinder date in which he did nothing wrong, likely committed some form of crime (false imprisonment) in wrongfully holding him, didn't seem to understand that their own scam made no sense and then blasted this guy to his landlord, employer and everyone else they could as a sex pest.

Even though, by their own whack-rear end theory, coming to meet a 16 year old (which he didn't do) wouldn't even technically be a crime.

They just randomly ruined this guy's life for no understandable reason.

I guess he's the personification of the "to own the libs" joke. Just do a bunch of random dumb poo poo that causes a ton of collateral damage and then declare the libs owned

We had s decent amount of snow fall overnight, which may depress in-person turnout.

The GOP candidate is Mazi Pilip, who as a child went to Israel to escape the Ethiopian civil war. Both her and Democrat candidate Tom Suozzi are vocal Israel supporters. As for IMMIGRATION, Pilip wants to ~build the wall~ and Suozzi supported the immigration deal that fell apart.

This district elected Suozzi 3 times, but he chose not to run in 2020, which is how Santos slipped in
