So why did they vote for the one who wasn’t a real candidate?

Well that’s kinda the opposite situation…

He won’t have that option since he was primaried for defying Trump on releasing the Epstein files. These are his last days in congress.

This latest update is 18gb which is over a quarter of the total storage on my phone. I am stuck because I haven’t been able to clear enough space yet… I don’t want all these BS AI features but I also need to download the security updates…

I do think it requires some skill and sociopathy around being able to sell the biggest lies you can imagine so investors give you money.

Weirdly despite her otherwise repugnant and fascist positions she was one of the more anti-surveillance members of congress. Hopefully some of the new members can keep carrying that torch.

They’re in the process of forgetting, it hasn’t fully happened yet.

Important questions. My sense is not on their own but with pressure from the public maybe.

Iran seems more likely as it has more economic salience. Plus I think the unfortunate reality is that most Americans are in the process of forgetting about Palestine. If they ever paid attention in the first place.

I mean let’s see what the democrats actually do before getting too smug…

I’m not so sure… is the American public even aware of the boat strikes?

2/3rds of the senate is a big hill to climb, especially when many of the R’s that survived are from far right states.

Yeah I mean I alluded to that but I just want to point out that in this era of being blackpilled about the polls, if you watched and trusted them this wasn’t a complete shock.

The race was within the margin of error according to polling. Maybe a major upset from a political geography perspective but not if you believe polling.

Sure if you have the infrastructure and topography to do so. But this adds to the cost.

The problem is everyone always compares solar alone to nuclear in this comparison it looks really good. However when you include the cost of storage, it doesn’t look as good.

The analyses I’ve seen suggest that we will need to build at least some nuclear to achieve the fastest and cheapest decarbonization.

People have a hard time separating people’s expertise from their general opinions. Nate Silver the talking head is kind of an idiot. But Nate Silver the election modeling expert is worth taking seriously.

This is what made me suspicious. Usually when a politician supports someone there’s no need to make vague statements like this because you can easily find a quote from her explaining her positions in her own words. The lack of such quotes seems conspicuous.

Regarding the Latinas for Trump claim, I can’t find any other sources making this claim, so I suspect this is just misinformation. I did find several statements from the real Latinas for Trump founders criticizing Trump’s immigration policy, though none had people close to them harmed directly. It seems to be a US based organization founded by local US politicians, so it would be quite surprising if this Colombian woman was involved, especially when she’s not mentioned as a founder elsewhere.

Here’s an article on one of the actual founders: https://thehill.com/homenews/campaign/5708999-garcia-criticizes-trump-midterms/

I believe he did have a visa and applied for asylum, although being the son of a politician unless there are some very unusual circumstances, his asylum claim seems dubious.

That said, he was following the rules as they exist and should not have been arrested.

In all the coverage of this I have not seen a single statement from her that is supportive of Trump or his immigration policy. I’m not saying she’s a good person but I’m starting to suspect people just want to force this story to fit the narrative they find gratifying instead of learning what actually happened.

And then, even if she did support this it doesn’t mean her son did, who is the real victim here. I wish people would have a little more compassion for victims of state violence. But it seems this is rare even on the left when there is a more convent narrative.

They’ve got a long way to go before they can claim such a title. If it’s even possible to be a “green superpower”. Seems like a contradiction to me.

I’m ready to try anything at this point.

It’s almost like there’s almost zero non-citizens voting or something…

Not that there’s even a need to prevent them from voting.
