i know i shouldn't use reddit as a serious heuristic but its easier than turning on cable news for an hour, but lately it seems like all the texas border shit & reproductive rights stuff is all being quietly swept under the rug for house speaker circuses & trump prosecution circuses.

i mean this article isn't even on the front page of the paper that published it. it really feels like there's a concerted redirection from the things the dems are willing to go along with domestically (that their constituents have voted to oppose) to dog-and-pony shows in DC that don't materially change anything
