Every time a progressive fuck opens their pie hole Republicans win. I wish Bernie the nazi would just fucking drive a car with the squad in it into the ocean and drown.
Some of Mahers commentary is common sense but most is for shock value. The problem with the Democrats is the party is the party moves to the right and acts impotent so as not to upset its corporate sponsors.
Very few will mention that Biden and Manchin have the same campaign donors and that being a reason why Biden won't stand up to him. It's corruption.
Even the progressive caucus sold out and supports the establishment.
The squad are the only ones openly fighting for the American people.
None of the squad is American and all of them are the enemy of true Americans. I don't need some ho-bag who fucked her brother telling me how to live life, especially one with a fucking towel on her head.
We need to move in a Progressive direction, and this is what will save us from economic and ecological disaster.
But even what Biden tried to do, could not get through the Senate. The public listend to Fox News and to Sunday Sermons at Born Again Churches, and they respond to talk about inflammatory wedge issues.
Manchin was right, the Squad is a Twitter phenomenon. They couldn't do jack shit with House, Senate, White House, they're going to lose 2 next year and probably the third in 2024.
If AOC looked like Pramila Jayapal, no one would know her name. The rest just bitch about being victims or latch onto the latest progressive hoax.
They're full of impotent whiny rage, which explains why they're popular among certain people here.
AOC is the typical infantile useless young person. Backs a mask mandate and then heads south to party in a red state with none. Illegally takes campaign contributions and pays the fag she's fucking. Always wants to buy votes with money, just not her money. Not paying for the vermin who supports her. Let the world end tomorrow.
We can talk about them biting on progressive media hoaxes like the honesty of Jussie Smollett
Or that inflation was transitory, no wait, only a matter of Pelotons getting delayed, no wait, Putin, no wait, Trump, no wait, something no president has power over
That the Southern border is secure, and illegal immigrants and fentanyl aren't pouring over in unmatched quantities
That global warming and trans rights are the greatest concern facing society
That you can magically be a woman if you decide you are one day, but your race is immutable and set for life
That the American people are clamoring for single payer healthcare when it can't pass in blue states
That there is a systemic campaign to disenfranchise voters
That Brett Kavanaugh sexually assaulted a woman whose story has no credibility
That Donald Trump called neo-Nazis "very fine people"
And that's just what I could think of in a couple minutes.
They've got the majority, got rid of the Big Bad Trump Wolf, and still got nothing done but a bunch of bitchy tweets. Some record of accomplishment. BTW she "mini-me" of the Squad, Ayanna Pressley, is a district or two over and always good for a laugh.
"We are going to retrain financializers as grave diggers. They aren't good for anything else."
Actually, you're going to do no such thing.
Just like 8 years ago, 8 years from now you'll still be spouting amateur politics, threatening upstanding members, and touting an organization that will never come to pass for 40 hours a week from San Jose Public Library computers.
^ Tetradon, its actually quite common that I have to go out and scrape some dried out scum off of the surface of my privacy wall. So this is nothing new.
A.O.C represents a district which looks like America. Far better than a district of Suburban Republicans.
LOL! You've said you'll never go after me and you wouldn't know where to procure commando training. If you did three of the thousand things you've threatened to do to people on this board, you'd top the FBI most wanted list. You're an internet tough guy.
"A.O.C represents a district which looks like America."
Double LOL! The South Bronx and Queens? You real? Demographics, income, density, it in no way looks like America.
Oh and an infinitesimal percentage of her funding even comes from there.
The fact AOC represents a district that looks like America is the saddest fucking thing I have ever heard. If she is truly the face of America we need to be nuked with a loss of 100% of the people here.
Tetradon. You need to look further than the anti progressive talking points. It's mainstream media focusing on identity politics while the squad has taken up real issues like poverty housing and food insecurity etc. Of course the dems have the same donors as Republicans.
The Squad are a bunch of foreign scumbags representing illegals and muslim rats, getting rich while they destroy the future of this country which is what Adolph Sanders has been advocating for years. Not paying a cent for foreign rats who contribute nothing.
@Icee, "anti-progressive talking points" are also called "reality." "Identity politics" are also known as "the foundation of culture and education, from which policies form downstream."
I'll repeat myself, what bills has the Squad passed? What have they done? And please don't give me this "shifting the public discourse" crap. Their policies are pure wishcasting, because they're well to the left of any sane American. I don't care what they take up, because they get precisely jack done but bitch about being Muslim in America (Omar) or how everyone wants to secretly fuck them (AOC).
What are the left's poverty policies doing right now? Who does inflation hurt? People on fixed incomes (welfare, SS). And don't give me the "corporations are greedy" crap. They've always been what they've been, that's not a change.
They are part of a governing majority, and the progressive wing of the Democratic party is where the energy and donations come from.
Stop making excuses for them. Unless they want to be 30-year Bernie-esque gadflies who can't do more than name post offices, they need to deliver, and they are showing they can't.
"democrats and Republicans are 2 sides of the same coin."
Lazy comment. In fact, they overlap less than ever.
The country has done fine without the Squad's craziness. In fact, with just the pandemic relief package, we've got 8.5% inflation. The Green New Deal would send inflation into the stratosphere, drive HCPs out of business like nothing going, and starve us of energy in a way that makes what's going on in Germany look like child's play.
Thankfully Americans are generally smart and pragmatic enough to reject that level of insanity.
"Said what if scenarios aren't grounded in material reality."
They're called the laws of economics. We pumped a couple trillion into the economy in the last couple years. What happens if we crank that up?
What reason do you have to believe that wouldn't happen?
This country needs no new legislation. What we do need is to remove every single illegal permanently. Shut the borders and get rid of asylum in all bot .o5% of the cases. If you look at the fucks stealing our money and look at immigration you know where the thieves are from.....
That's the good part about hypothetical progressive legislation, you can just say "we've never done it so we don't know" rather than apply known laws of economics.
"In July 2020, Breed announced her plan to defund the police — cutting $120 million from law enforcement to fund social programs. Result? Crime skyrocketed. Today, San Francisco is more dangerous than 98 percent of U.S. cities. In November alone, there were 3,375 reports of larceny theft citywide. In the Central District, home to many of the city’s tourist hot spots, there were 876 reports of smash-and-grabs — almost 30 a day — a 98 percent increase from the year before. In the Tenderloin district, there are midday shootings and residents are forced to walk in the middle of the streets to avoid drug dealers and homeless people lying on the sidewalk shooting up. San Francisco residents now have a 1 in 16 chance of becoming a victim of either violent or property crime."
"many of the worst hit cities have defunded the police and eliminated officer positions. Minneapolis cut $8 million from the police budget. Oakland cut $14.6 million. Portland cut $15 million. Philadelphia cut $33 million. Seattle reduced its police budget by $46 million, and the SPD has shrunk by nearly 270 police officers in the past 18 months. New York cut police funding last year by a whopping $1 billion, while more than 2,500 officers left the department."
"Last year, New York saw a 44 percent increase in homicides over 2019. This year, the homicide rate is down 0.5 percent — virtually unchanged. So de Blasio wants credit for maintaining the disastrous homicide rates of 2020?"
"The surge of shootings and killings that followed has left Baltimore easily the deadliest large city in the United States. Its murder rate reached an all-time high last year; 342 people were killed. The number of shootings in some neighborhoods has more than tripled"
"At the same time, violence in the city leapt to historic highs. Police recorded more than 200 murders and assaults involving guns in May 2015, triple the number in March."
I also don't see why you'd quote the self-interested Democratic party on inflation. This is a liberal site quoting the American Rescue Plan as a key cause.
Always when this is studied, the people who worry about crime the most are the people who live in the lowest crime rate areas. And usually their fears are very racial in nature.
"Always when this is studied, the people who worry about crime the most are the people who live in the lowest crime rate areas. And usually their fears are very racial in nature."
It is statistics, not racism, that 90% of white/black interracial assaults are committed against black people against white people, and black people commit over half of all murders. Specifically, young black males.
Jesse Jackson said he's relieved when he sees someone walking behind him, and they turn out to be white.
Now, I'm paranoid of _everyone_ when I walk down the street, but if the stats say that elderly Asian dwarves were responsible for that proportion of crime, I'd keep my eyes a lot lower to the ground, and watch my back around nursing homes in Chinatown. As would anyone with half a brain.
It's called "pattern recognition." But I know someone (my bet is Icee) is going to be like yOu bIgOt!!!!!111
"Aggravated assaults in America rose by an estimated 12.4 percent, while the murder rate increased by a staggering 29.4 percent—the single largest year-over-year increase on record.
Interestingly, violent crimes did not peak in March, April, and May (the months in which most of America was actually locked down), but rather in the summer—after the death of George Floyd and subsequent nationwide move against policing in many major liberal cities."
"A full 80.5 percent of the victims had an unknown relationship to their killer or were acquaintances or strangers, indicating that the murders arose not because of tight living quarters during COVID lockdown, but rather because of drug or gang activity or arguments between people who are prone to violence and/or have extensive criminal records.
This trend held up nationwide as well, as just 7 percent of victims were spouses or significant others and approximately 15 percent could be classified as victims of domestic abuse homicide. 85 percent were either acquaintances with their killers, did not know them, or had an unknown relationship.
Again, this signifies that the spike in murders last year was most certainly not due to COVID-19 lockdowns, but rather the monthslong lawlessness allowed to fester on America’s streets in the wake of Floyd’s death."
"This country needs no new legislation. What we do need is to remove every single illegal permanently. Shut the borders and get rid of asylum in all bot .o5% of the cases. If you look at the fucks stealing our money and look at immigration you know where the thieves are from....."
^ so, why don't you swim back across the Rio Grande then. Set the example like a good old fart.

A.O.C. is one of the most clear thinking and visionary House members.
There are either going to be big changes or there will be disruption and disorder on a very large scale.
But I don't see that Biden will have much to do with this.

Of course humanity keeps stepping on the rake of socialism and wondering why it keeps hitting us in the nose.
Making up a political scenario that never happened then interpreting it via your dogmatic paradigms is just arguing what if scenarios. Lulz

OnPolitics: Who called Trump Jan. 6? Phone log gap means we don't...
Fact check: No evidence defunding police to blame for homicide increases, experts say
"Aggravated assaults in America rose by an estimated 12.4 percent, while the murder rate increased by a staggering 29.4 percent—the single largest year-over-year increase on record.
Interestingly, violent crimes did not peak in March, April, and May (the months in which most of America was actually locked down), but rather in the summer—after the death of George Floyd and subsequent nationwide move against policing in many major liberal cities."
