I attended a No Kings rally in a small suburb that nobody here has probably ever heard of. We easily beat Trump's numbers. LOL

So, he's mad at Trump for doing exactly what he was campaigning on when Rogan endorsed him?

It didn't help my kids growing up to have Trump in the Whitehouse either.

The bill just "includes" the provision? Nobody put it there, it's just that new language often spontaneously erupts in a piece of legislation?

And why the vague language of "limits access to gender-affirming care services". What's actually in the bill is no more complex and a lot more clear. Are psychological gender-affirming services still available? Yep. Are puberty blocking drugs still covered? Yep. All that's blocked is coverage for procedures that might result in sterilization - procedures that are already not generally done on minors who arguably aren't yet capable of giving proper consent.

Tell the whole story or GTFO. Debating Biden's complicity is fine, but don't skip the Republican's role with the passive voice like you're CNN describing how more violence just "erupted" in Gaza. Don't hide what's actually in the bill and potentially cause trans kids to not bother seeking medical services because they were misled by your hack politics.

This is not legitimate outrage at the legislation. If it were, you wouldn't have left out the main protagonists, what's actually in the legislation, and the entire story. It's just mastebetory outrage bait meant to divide the left which is (surprise) the entire reason Republicans forced the issue to begin with.

If you're not already a right wing troll, you should go find the people who pay money for posting this kind of garbage.

San Francisco will rename a post office in honor of the late Sen. Dianne Feinstein

And here I thought I would never have to hear her name again. Fucking clueless neoliberal Democrats. It's not enough she got rich fucking us over, now we're expected to honor the memory of it. Wasn't there a sewage treatment plant in need of a name?

Knowing the Democrats, they would probably get the expansion then fail to confirm any judges, allowing Trump to fill every seat.

That's a pretty generous summation of the problems with Biden's debate performance. It was also hardly a one-off. Every time Biden appears it's a coin flip for which Biden shows up, which is why he appears so infrequently.

You are absolutely right about how Trump's bullshit gets largely ignored by the press though.

I like the part of the election cycle when some good things are allowed to happen.

I don't even blame Biden for waiting. Americans have such short memories that getting elected means having to hold some things in reserve, and getting reelected or passing the office on are genuinely important factors. It just sucks that people had to wait.

Congrats to everyone helped by this!

One of the darkest examples of "every accusation is a confession."

The Republicans voted to pass a bill in the House to send the weapons. It will almost certainly fail in the Senate but, even if it doesn't, Biden would have to sign it into law. I don't see Biden signing a bill to override himself, and there is no way that Congress would get the required 2/3 in each chamber to override. This bill was just a performative stunt.

This is so much better than all the posts shaming voters for not wanting to vote for Biden.

Biden is a far cry from the President that I want, but it's ignorant to claim he hasn't been a hell of a lot better than Trump, or even Obama and Clinton. After 50+ years of really shitty Presidents and an even worse Congress, Biden is arguably the best we've had. It's entirely possible to promote Biden with honest accounting without trying to silence the voices saying the Democrats must do better.

That said, of the Democrats try to force Harris on us without an actual primary in 2024, then it's time to repeat the 1968 national convention. Our FPTP system means that primaries are effectively the only real democracy we get, and the way they are run by the DNC (and RNC) is abysmal.

That's awesome. They had no significant development costs and still racked up a $15m loss in the last year. Yep, definitely a Trump enterprise.
