The big deal was that Republicans finally had some legitimate ammo on a Democrat. That’s it, that’s the whole thing. They milked it for all it was worth.
If he had admitted to the blowjob, they would have attacked him for that. Since he didn’t, they pretended it was all about the lying.
It was really just about having a convenient excuse.
He didn’t do ‘exactly what I said I wanted him to do,’ don’t put words in my mouth and lay off the insults.
As for ‘prove it,’ what proof would you accept without degenerating to more namecalling and flagrant ignorance of current events? The fact that the only senators claiming Schumer did a good job and is ‘solid with the caucus’ are the 8 Democrats that flipped? Levin and McMorrow outright stating they no longer support Schumer as senate minority leader due to his actions? House Democrats like Jefferies and Khanna also stating that he didn’t fight and needs replaced? Wahls stating that the Democrats who voted were given his blessing, and motherfucking Jeanne Shaheen herself- one of the very democrats that voted to capitulate- directly confirmed on Fox News Schumer was involved the whole time.
Spice Hoarder asked why you were getting downvoted, not why you were negative, and I answered that question. Also, for the record, when I did answer that question, you WERE in the negative. And judging by this reply, you should have stayed there.
It’s because Schumer worked to get this to happen, then bowed out at the end so he could pretend he had nothing to do with it. He was the architect and the driving force behind this capitulation.
So people are downvoting MiddleAgesModem for falling for a blatantly obvious attempt by Schumer to redirect blame.
I’ts not supposed to make sense, it’s supposed to convince people not to vote, because people exercising their rights are inconvenient to the republican leadership and their backers.
Once again, the headline gets twisted to the republican narrative,
Anti-corruption. It’s an anti-corruption group. The GOP lawmakers are corrupt.
Intends to? He already has.
Time can go fuck itself for this bullshit headline. “Democrats leave White House with no deal”?
How about “Republicans refuse Democrat deal, setting stage for Republican Government shutdown”
Or maybe something like “Republicans Refuse To Give Americans Benefits and Medical they Pay For, Govenment Shutdown Imminent”
You need to remember that right wingers are pretty terrible at recognizing their own bias. When Robinson’s friends are like ‘we’re a completely political neutral discord, praise God almighty’, you need to understand what’s actually being said when they also claim that Robinson was ‘politically neutral.’
This sort of dipshittery is exactly why the democratic party keeps trotting out center-right nobodies that fail to energize their base, and why actual progressives like Mamdani are doing so well despite widespread attempts by the left AND right to pretend he’s not.
To be as polite as possible on the matter? Shut the fuck up, and take your lies elsewhere.
Can’t tell if that’s a message of support or not, but just in case it’s not- trust me, we’re trying to get the republicans away from our table.
And before you say we should leave the table- not all of us have that option.
If it WAS a message of support… well, everything I said still applies in general lol.
If you’re a Republican, you’re supporting this. You can claim you aren’t on board all you want, but at the end of the day, you’re supporting them.
Maybe don’t, if you don’t like what the Republicans party is doing with the support you’ve given them.
She’s literally been a major feminist activist and UN ambassador for over a decade.
The vote was taken under gunpoint, quite famously, actually. Even then, the leaders of two of the leftmost political parties made a point of voting against it, making the rather valid point that the nazis were going to kill them anyway.
So in other words, these restrictions actually work. Got it.
Why would Putin need Trump to pass that sort of thing along anymore? That’s literally Tulsi Gabbard’s job, passing along info the Putin.
She was literally a known Russian spy even before the got confirmed.
Truth out is usually pretty solid, but a lot of the sources seem to be either working with information they aren’t sharing, or are making leaps of logic. This could either be Harvard quietly dismantling their DEI program… Or massively expanding it.
Source, because that just sounds like a load of MAGA cope.
South Park has traditionally supported the GOP by either normalizing things or both-sides’ing.
Don’t expect them to suddenly stop now.
It’s just lemmy.ml taking a pop at the US so they can feel superior. Feel free to ignore.
I mean, from all accounts and evidence, they have been, just not consensual blowjobs from people of-age.
