  1. Um, the fucking wiggle room was to literally have another election with international oversight (not just some CIA backed group) and yet the military didn't want that and "asked" Morales to step down. It's pretty freaking obvious what is going on given the anti-Indigenous bigotry being displayed by this new president.
  2. I wouldn't be shocked at NC going back to Blue and it taking another cycle or two before Georgia and Texas change, it's a different state.
  3. I wouldn't count on Georgia flipping (I doubt we'll get a Dem in Perdue or Isakson's seats which really matters), but 2016 was the closest Georgia went to going D since 1992 before the Dixiecrats really finished jumping ship. Also, the Nate I really prefer properly points out that this AJC poll very much over-sampled college educated voters.
  4. There's a ton of these tweets, but I'll just leave this one. Definitely a very democratic and non-fascist admin that is being ushered in.
  5. Do you really want to do a body count of leftist vs. right regimes? It's insane to me to use that as some wedge binary issue when you're talking about millions of people being lifted out of poverty (or are you going to deny this?) and especially when we basically helped fund our own death squads in central and south america every time a leftist movement took hold. Just look at someone like Elliot Abrams who helped orchestrate the El Mozote massacre and is somehow being still rewarded for that in the current administration.
  6. Coach walked into his alma mater and just beat them, awesome.
  7. I don't really like Nate Silver, but this is his analysis
  8. The problem is that legislation was presented twice to Trump about how to resolve the DACA kids since congress understands it wasn't meant as a permanent solution, but Trump refused to take it up both times. McConnell probably won't either because he is an evil human being and should keel over and make the world a better place.
  9. This seems good
  10. Annnnd I have him on my bench lol, fuck sports.
  11. Really want Quinn and Dimitroff gone, probably the only time I was ever rooting for the Saints and the Falcons still F that up. Oh well, at least Georgia Southern's Younghoe Koo has looked good today.
  12. Yeah, laughing about Greenwald is a great look when he just helped Lula get released as a political prisoner.
  13. Yep, we should be reliant upon the generosity of billionaires to solve our health crises, not actual funding of the NSF/NIH and other non-profit entities.
  14. So you're just trying to shit on Hugo for any reason?
  15. It would be easier to just say that listening to a libertarian publication is stupid. The last place I'm looking for good critical thinking analysis is Reason. They'd be publishing piece after piece attacking the New Deal, Social Security, and Medicare if it existed at that time.
  16. Holy shit, I'm guessing she doesn't slap him upside his head?
  17. The zealotry that you claim he has is something that is shared among a lot of young people in this country, especially those who aren't white (millennials are the most diverse group and zoomers probably will exceed that). The idea that we should prevent anyone from earning a billion dollars in this country is not an extreme view of people I know who are around my age (mid-30s and younger). This board's average age is probably in the low 50s, there is a noticeable difference even among Democrats here in comparison to other boards I post on where the average age is closer to mine.
  18. Well past time that ICE and CBP be abolished
  19. Not really if you pay attention at all to the ideas and politicians that Millennials and Zoomers support.
  20. For everyone one of you who bitches about BT being too extreme, are you just dumb as hell or completely ignorant of how much wealth inequality there is in this country and how it's continually getting worse? Like this shit is going to lead to pitchforks at some point, it is not sustainable.
  21. Anyone who makes a billion dollars has not done so ethically, it's pretty simple. Gates was a ruthless piece of shit early in his career, he's just getting news and media idiots to help rehab his image now.
  22. Bernie has been railing against billionaires for the past 40 years? I don't think he cares what they think about Warren.
