I HATE CONGRESSIONAL ACRONYMS SO MUCH
HERES THE NEW FEDERAL BORDER AERIAL SURVEILLANCE TO ASSIST RECONNAISSANCE DRONES ACT
EVERYBODY CLAP FOR THE FEDERAL BASTARDS ACT
this is a hack bit, but I love American law acronyms, because they are so wildly against the title.
like they could draft legislation called the Save Our Schools Act (SOS) and the executive summary would be about how the legislation turns every school in America into an artillery free fire zone and authorizes the military to drone strike every teacher in the US .
It could also be called something like "Operation Noble Education" or some shit like that.
Operation Iraqi Liberation
Sounds like they really want to encourage people to watch Adventure Time and play Minecraft.
Not to be too much of a lib, but this is why I push back on the “if voting changed anything they’d make it illegal.”
Because they’re making it illegal.
But watch as one side pushes the agenda and the other side allows them to do it in the name of "compromise." This is why voting changes nothing. You can vote for the people doing the bad thing or you can vote for the people shaking their hand while they do it. There is no difference.
Here's what voting changes: who gets to control the graft machine.
You can't give your buddy lucrative no-bid contracts if you don't control the right levers.
They're fighting very hard to keep themselves in their cushy jobs where nothing is expected of them.
the Safeguard American Eligibility, or SAVE Act
They can’t even backronym right anymore.
The writer accidentally a whole word (it's the Safeguard American Voter Eligibility Act)
I thought I might be to blame in my fat fingered copy-and-pasting. Nope. The glory is all theirs. And that article has had that mistake for 4 days.
Thank you, comrade.
The literal state of Western “journalism”
Like a bad penny? Lol ok
I can imagine a future comment in r/politics...
"Look, InevitableSwing - your negative comments aren't helping at all, okay? In 2021-22 the dems had unified control and they did in 2025-26 too. Yeah, we heard you. But they didn't 'do nothing' as you suggest. They did a highly impressive amount of work. Yes, they weren't able to pass federal election laws. They can't do everything. And now in 2029 we have President Barron because the conservative justices lowered the minimum age to be president. As for packing the court - that wasn't practicable. We have President Barron and we just have to deal with that."
"And stop saying 'Voting doesn't matter.' The GOP passed their SAVE Act. This is not a time to quit. Millions of woman can't vote in the 2030 midterms. We have to work around because it's the most important election of our lifetime..."
I can't reply because I was banned for the 27th time.
isn't perfect, but if you want to see even a chance of Xocial Xecurity getting a public option like in the old days, you're just going to have to hold your nose and accept the and 
ticket.
STEP AWAY FROM THE LATHE WITH YOUR HANDS UP 
They'd have to let non-natural born citizens run
You know goddamned well that they seriously considered it for Schwarzenegger.
