It's great that they flipped that seat but I'm across the river in Oregon in the same television market and the damn political ads for that race were driving me crazy. Her ad's were on constantly. She comes from a family of loggers, heats her home with a wood stove, and owns an auto shop. I feel like I've known her all my life. They dumped a ton of money on ads. It was airwave saturation.

The thing is that Jamie Herrera Butler would have easily held on to that seat but they primaried her with a crazy trumper and she lost setting the stage for the Democrats to go after that seat very aggressively and it paid off.


One of the reasons Trump is still running around, and he still has work to do in Georgia. Letting him run around lose for a year was beneficial. The secret documents and obstruction of justice will put him away long before his cronies and henchmen go down over J6. Looks like the GOP was setting up to dump Trump and I'm surprised they never shut up about it until the Georgia runoff. Ya just know Donald is gonna fuck Mitch again in Georgia. :lol:

The American civil war has moved inside the GOP where it belongs!

You said it and I disagree. If Biden's administration had not passed the most aggressive measures to address human caused climate change, if we stayed in Afghanistan much longer, if Biden had not cancelled some of the education debt burden, his administration did a magnificent job of distributing vaccines, and basically show voters what an effective government looks like, Democrats would have lost the Senate and the lost House by a larger margin. Maybe a few more election deniers would have won seats in the states. Yes, Republicans committed own goals that teed this election cycle up for a Democratic Party win but if they had just diddled the time away like Republicans did under Trump, enough people would have said "why bother?" to shift the election to a more palatable one for Trump's MAGA. Biden and Democratic Party leadership did not make mistakes like the GOP did. It's hard to give credit for not making mistakes but one can at least recognize that Democrats did not.

I don't understand why Democrats are so quick to forget what a bad government looks like and credit their leadership for what they did and did not do. Some people can't be satisfied good performance, I guess.
they did all of that, and they were still expected to not only win, but win big...then they started sticking their feet in their mouths, and worse orifices...RvW opinions were leaked, and the republican owned scotus decided to go for it, instead of laughing it off till after the midterms. ted cruz and his fucking lackeys had the gall to high5 each other about stalling the pact act, on camera. Trump pushed a shit load of garbage candidates that would kiss his ass. uncle thomas started talking about banning same sex marriage. a whole slew of republicans embraced radical qanon conspiracy shit...
if they hadn't done any of those things, they would have won, and won big. they drove the independents away, and some of the saner republican voter base. they alienated women, lgbtq people, veterans, young voters...they did everything wrong, and they lost.
i'm not saying the democrats did nothing, that they were irrelevant to the process, but they didn't overpower the republicans, the republicans overpowered themselves.

You are right. Elections are contests between people and the electorate must choose one or the other. Nobody is perfect. People have to decide which imperfect person to represent them. None of the above was not on the ballot or they might have swept the election.

I know that. I also know that extraordinary claims require extraordinary evidence. I’ve been burnt before when I took the shortcut of wanting something to be true.
Do you deny what you've seen with your eyes or is everything a deep fake? Was the Insurrection which was extraordinary, real?

I triangulate and have to trust; I use the best outlets for it..even paying the fckers because Democracy Dies In Darkness, but they still need my buck..I'm a Prime member and it should be included..another Billionaire with a rocket ship and he has to squeeze you. Thank god for his ex Mackenzie and her philanthropic..she runs circles around the guy who sends me dusty dirty open box items.

That proves nothing.

The facility should have been shut down a decade ago because it was a dilapidated facility.

It also seems like everything centers around one sick doctor and his deviant sexual proclivities taking unwanted privileges with women in detention.

People can hate trump all they want and I do but I'm not going to go along with some nonsense about him giving the green light for forced hysterectomies. That's Qanon material. This topic started when someone stated that trump was doing forced hysterectomies.

Here's the snippet:

"Trump did forced hysterectomies on brown people that came to this country."

That's completely false and should not be spread around the way the right spreads the same kind of nonsense.


"A September investigation by the Associated Press said it could not find a pattern of mass hysterectomies performed"

“In many instances, the medically unindicated gynecological procedures Respondent Amin performed on Petitioners amounted to sexual assault,” the consolidated lawsuit states.
Was there one forced hysterectomy?

I'm talking about Bezos. Democracy Dies In Darkness is their masthead on WaPo.he owns Amazon = Prime. He is a Billionaire with a spaceship. His ex is Mackenzie Scott (Bezos).

I sadly assume everyone knows the above; my bad.
