"The kangaroo is a funny animal. When attacked, it defends itself." ~ Neville Cardus

"This is what I observe or expect to happen" isn't the same as "This is what I want to happen." Not even remotely close.

Cool. I’ll state my pre-existing (existing?) analysis.

At least 47% of Americans—voting Americans—are consummate assholes, which explains the results better than any expert punditry.
No requirements to normalize relations with Israel first?

Bibi will be pissed.

Democrats only need to be more inclusive with transgender folk, Muslims, Democratic Socialists, and decent people.

The rest, they can ask to fuck off.

One shithead confirmed RFK Jr. and backs TACO 45.

The other retired and killed Obamacare subsidies with bipartisanship.

Bottom line: two shitheads.

Congress is set to vote on extending the subsidies next month.

Why are people still on shitter, and further, whining about Grok?
Yup! Ever notice how often the Grok logo appears when you visit Shitter?

Just to be clear: even if the House passes a bill requiring the release of the Epstein documents, it will likely be largely symbolic.

It is unlikely to get 2/3rds majority in each chamber that is necessary to overcome the ensuing presidential veto.

The desperation of some to believe "Democrats did not cave" is both sickening and breathtaking.

Very cult-like.

Know why I call a majority of Texans shitty people who elect vile scum?

Even the police chief said their shooting was not departmental procedure. They were called to help a mentally ill person, and instead, they executed her.

Why is New Hampshire not considered a red state?

Governor is Republican: Kelly Ayotte.
House is Republican 218/400 seats.
Senate is Republican 16/24 seats (fucking 2/3rds majority).
Both senators voted with the GOP to end healthcare subsidies for the poor.

You want to send Democrats a message?

If you are not a Democrat, you don't have to do a thing.

If you're, quit the party. You can still vote for a Democrat, but quit the party.
Any Democrat asks for a donation, ask them why they voted for Jeffries or Schumer?

Hey @schumer.senate.gov next time, cave early if you're going to cave.

What a shitty deal!

A vote that needs 60 Senators to approve? In exchange for a CR until end of January?
November 9, 2025 at 8:17 PM
Democrats look ready to cave.

Will agree to back a CR to end of January in exchange for a 60-vote threshold vote on extending ACA subsidies for a year, which will not pass.

Now, people will notice the economy, and start being critical of this regime a little.

Why? Because the stock markets are being hit.

So what? “Stock markets are not the economy.”

No, but they are loaded with 401ks, pension funds—teachers’ union funds, and people panic when retirement is hurt.
