Good job, Democrats. We know Republicans were pieces of shit, but the reason Democrats’ polling is in the toilet is because of stuff like this.
Yeah, but only because “CBS” doesn’t have a broadcast license, stations do.
Also, cable TV doesn’t use “broadcast licenses”, and IPTV & streaming certainly don’t.
A lot of what Trump does makes sense when you realize his brain ossified in 1982.
So, what you’re saying is we need a party of dicks fuck both the pussies and the assholes, before the pussies are covered in shit?

Technically they can’t dismantle USAID either.
A lot depends on the courts now.
“National Conservatism” on the wall, without a hint of irony.
I wonder if in a decade or so, if NaCo (nacho?) will replace Nazi in the lexicon.
The correct response is “If I’m going to jail because abortion is murder, I may as well kill my rapist”

I’m a Canadian who just finished a business trip to the Midwestern US.
I was amazed at the number of signs for Republicans imploring voters to save America from communism by voting R.
I think it’s beyond time that Democrats call them fascists, because Republicans fucking are, especially since the other common signs I saw talked about the radical groomer trams agenda.
It’s crab-bucket public relations.
If you drag everyone down to your level, everyone looks bad, or at least you don’t look as bad by comparison and the voting public loses confidence in the system in general, which tends to benefit fascists.
A better idea is to do to the Democratic Party what the Tea Party and MAGA did to the Republicans.
Primary out corporate candidates and push for progressive ones at every level. President, congressional rep, school board trustee, dog-catcher: it doesn’t matter.
The problem progressive voters have is that they don’t show up, and the especially don’t show up during off years, in primaries and in down-ballot races. The polticial right, by comparison, has been getting people in place on small races for years.
Sanders did more for progressivism by enthusing Democratic members to vote in primaries and down-ballot races than Stein or any third party has ever done, and we’re seeing results. It needs to continue.
Yup, Ron Jr.
He’s actually very progressive, especially given his upbringing.
Putting aside the obvious concerns, a mayor doing this and using “it’s the same as the maintenance guy” should be a red flag.
I’ve worked in companies where high-level people take it upon themselves to do operational work. It’s at best pointless retail poltics, and at worst it’s rampant bikeshedding.
I’m sure China would be equally amenable to a peace proposal that would allow Taiwan part of the mainland, or would allow Tibet autonomy.
China, in other words, can fuck right off.
Depressingly, also Fetterman.
Discretion? From the whale carcass anti-vax guy?
“Blurs the line?”
Ok, let’s try an experiment: "Hitler blurs the line on Jews, Romani and actual criminals ".
How does that read, Mr Journalist?
Fuck these false-objectivity, milquetoast, water-carrying fascist apologists.
It’s not that the FCC doesn’t regulate cable, it’s that cable doesn’t have broadcast licenses. No spectrum license to revoke.
The path to regulating a cable TV channel is not a straightforward one in the US. If it was, cable news a la Fox would have been in the crosshairs devades ago.
