Is it possible to hate one person this much? I don't even remember George W. this way and he dragged the country into an illegal war that pretty much wrecked a region.
Hi PoliERA, I filed to run for office yesterday:
It's the NH state legislature, so there's a lot of seats, enough such that random people like me have a chance of making it. I'm not primarying any incumbent (the previous holder of this seat died), but it's still going to be a contested primary anyways since lots of people have an interest in running this year. I really don't like fundraising so I'll be trying to run my campaign by spending absolutely no money whatsoever and just relying on word of mouth thru free media such as the internet. Anyone else here have any other experiences with running for office they'd like to share?

Naw I think it's the wrestling equivalent. He has 15 boxes of work to do on some marks. am I doing this right?
Is she 8 months pregnant?
I'm curious if a reporter is able to follow-up on that and if Melania's staff will go along with Trump's random BS he pulled out of thin air.
I'm not going to be judgemental about Ovechkin, he's from Moscow and his family still lives there. It's impossible to know what his real feelings may be since we all know what happens to Russians who oppose Putin.
That's half the reason these chuckle fucks pass shit like this. It's a stunt that has zero consequences and pumps up their base.
awesome, I got hte paper work to form a Pac, so I could make political ads and publish them through it.
I also started looking at the paperwork and signatures needed to get on the ballet for a house/state level rep by 2022-2026
Right I should go back to reddit in general some time; I used to post on reddit a lot but got frustrated with /r/the_donald taking over in 2016...
Working to bring back all the old classics:
Black lung
Mesothelioma
Lead poisoning
So assuming a shit-ton of Trump properties have asbestos in them.
Yeah most of reddit sucks, I mostly stick to a few subs. BM2018 and Daily Kos Elections are useful for the latest campaign news, and generally have a more positive/motivational vibe.
Only requires 50 votes if they get it done in the next 10 working days so it has a good chance
It's basically a purely symbolic bill though. It was originally DOA because dismantling the spending agreement on a party line vote would basically kill any future negotiations so they watered it down to cleaning up the accounting of old unspent money. The CHIP "cuts" aren't expected to do anything but hurt the GOP in the midterms
"Look at these Democrats who hate children so much they won't help us heroes fund CHIP. Look at the dead children, everyone!"
30 seconds later
"Ok now to defund CHIP"
So we're at the point now where we're saying Abestos is safe?

Dems do the same thing. This one actually is a broths sides problem. IIRC there was a blatant case of this in Jersey recently where Dems wont touch a bill they previously passed now that they have a D governor.
Passing symbolic Bill's to get vetoed is a standard divided government opposition tactic.
Give it time. In six months we will be back to leaded gasoline in this country.
"The pencils we give our children have lead in them - how bad can it be?"

You know what I have to say PA steelworkers? Go suck the orange Cheetos tiny cock. You cared more about fucking over PoC and the lgbtq community than your own fucking welfare.
You chose racism/bigotry over logic.
Hope you lose it fucking all.

I know the tax on my electric car is coming. It'll still be worth paying and not driving a combustion engine car though, and if it's a chance to actually start making up for the hilariously shrinking (when considering inflation and cars becoming more efficient) gasoline tax, then I'm okay taking that bullet to get something fucking sensible into law for a market sector that's only going to keep increasing.
Of course they will just turn to full on facism because doubling down is all they know.
They wont ever vote Dem but some might just stay home on Election Day which is the next best thing.
I think we're so past the point of "nothing really matters anymore", it's not even funny. Trump and his gang can do whatever they want, nothing is going to happen to them. Even Romney is drinking the koolaid now.
As profile in courage Boehner put it, "It's the party of Trump now".
I mean, the first dude NPR quotes is genuinely stupid. He shouldn't be voting.
I'm not going to feel sorry for him if his job goes away, but he is an argument for some sort of jobs program like a Roosevelt-era program like the CCC. Just keep this dumbass employed so that he doesn't vote on something that he thinks that he understands, but that he doesn't understand at all.
It was a tax hike on millionaires. New Jersey is a special case in my mind, as it has a political culture of naked corruption.
I'm struggling to think of legislation dems floated in the Bush era that would apply to this though. For the most part, at least on a federal level, drmocrats don't do this.
Boehner can pass the buck as much as he wants, he still made this. He even bragged about how happy he was to vote for Trump in 2016. Fuck him.
