Unfortunately Chung kept his seat. Same with Calvert and Young.

Example 1. "Nicola Willis says..."

We all know that this is bullshit

NZ Herald headline reading "Nicola Willis says Chorus sales money could go towards funding hospitals and schools"

Current political news media is summarised by the fact that they will report Farage's statement of denial without also reporting the photographic evidence that he's lying.

This seems commonplace across the 'West' - publish outright RW lie as "XYZ says..." but don't follow up with repudiation

They do other work, drafting legislation, meetings, meeting their constituents etc. But they should be doing it furloughed just like all other federal workers.

No. They've already ceded power to the executive (in flagrant abuse of the constitution).

Make them clock in and clock out. Justify their work hours too. You were at a press confrontation and had meetings with x,y,z sure. You were wfh, doing what exactly?
Meeting donors is not acceptable use of office hours do that in your free time.

Question for lawmakers. Why do lawmakers still get paid during a shutdown? Still get their free medicals etc?

People saying this isn't effective protesting are so wrong. This makes the fascists look utterly ridiculous. This is so much more effective than many forms of protest, and a lot less violent, too. I'm a fan.

Did...Did Shumer give his phone to a millennial for this tweet? Or was his nice old man thing just an act? If so, drop the mask.

Also left everywhere. More of this. Punch up, but also state what you will be doing for people.
