Perez and Cuellar? No surprises there.
IIRC Biden and Pelosi personally intervened on Cuellars race when it looked like Cisneros, a progressive, would have a shot.
There are the Democrats the Party has fought hard to get elected.
And I wonder why they worked hard on getting conservatives and neoliberals to win instead of progressives… Fucking ponderous.
Cool, let’s just normalize women not taking their husband’s name. Less paperwork all around and no voter roll issues. I’m sure that’ll go over great with Republicans as a bonus.
Also normalize the children having hyphenated names.
It’s very few generations before that becomes unwieldy.
Funny how the Democratic party rails against Trump but when it comes time to voting, there’s always a rotating cast of Dems willing to give him enough votes to screw the people over. Probably a coincidence, right?
Surely just a coincidence that the rotating evil is a different cast of people, despite the members of congress rarely changing.
Maybe if we donate to them and make them ignore the voter base some more, this time they’ll stop Trump, and we’ll get to kick the football!
Primary every taint-licking centrist that supports anything they try to do.
Make election day a nationalized paid holiday if you really give a shit about Americans heading out to the polls.
I think it’s pretty clear they don’t want that at all.
Along with them trying to make it so votes have to be counted by end of the day
In PA, they created unreasonable deadlines and then refused to allow counties to begin counting until after polls closed. It was a transparent attack on voting rights in densely populated areas.
Texas also loves to restrict number of polling places in densely populated areas
Mail-in and early voting always results in bigger turnouts. It also tends to result in more progressive votes, so that’s why conservatives try to reduce or restrict it. Imagine a country where a core right is the ability to vote for representation, and yet those in office try to make it harder to do so they can stay in power.
Multiple days to cover people in emergency situations. One day would probably suffice when universal vote-by-mail starting at least a month ahead is in place.
I mean we just vote on Sundays it’s a pretty simple fix.
Jared Golden, Marie Gluesenkamp Perez, Henry Cuellar, and Ed Case
“Democrats” is enough. Stop voting for that party.
That fucking shit bag Ed Case…
AGAIN
Girlfriend and I had an episode in the anger dome for that fucking asshole doing his fucking DINO-ass shit AGAIN.
And for no fucking reason. Maybe he can argue there are secret conservatives in Hawaii for spending, but no one gives a shit about this made-up election-integrity issue. He’s just a Fox News grandpa cosplaying as a Democrat and he’s probably going to keep getting elected until he dies. All while we also vote for senators that are unreliable, but at least broadly default to having decent politics. Someone with a recognizable name in politics needs to announce a primary like yesterday, just like when Tulsi was taking the mask off.
How long before we can get rid of him and Schatz?
This is why people both sides.
When it comes down to voting the Democrats will always vote for fascism because they only really represent their rich doners
Donors. Unless they are funded by big kebab
unfortunately we’re the ones being spit-roasted.
eyyyooooooo
Four Dems and it’s “always” for you? You know that “all” isn’t “four”, right?
They’re really pushing the “both the same” narrative extremely hard.
Exactly. It isn’t just the right getting propaganda to support Trump.
You don’t blame the scorpion for killing the frog, it’s in its nature.
Everyone with a brain can see Republicans are violent hateful monsters. That goes without saying, which is why people focus on the people who are supposed to kill monsters but are for some reason helping the monsters.
Tthat’s the reason people are calling out specific reps and individual Dems.
Most of the reason people are calling out Democrats as a whole is to discourage people from voting at all.
I can’t overstate how important primaries are. That is where you get a choice within the party.

Thank god we get those and they aren’t rigged or have SuperPACs outweighing the community they’re meant to represent. Right? …R-right?
SuperPACs outweighing the community
Yep. It is fine to call out the four Democrats and get them primaried. It isn’t fine to say all Democrats are bad because four Democrats out of the 200+ caucus voted for this.
Now someone’s going to come in and helpfully explain rotating villain as though that’s the case every single time.
If they fight against the party every time someone gives them the money to do it maybe they should fucking get kicked out of the DNC.
The Neoliberals who control the DNC are allowed to kick out whoever they want, but instead the party supports traitors and keeps them around. Becuae they are a convenient excuse to block real progress that idiots will always keep falling for.
Sorry but the Democratic party is totally impotent, and that is something you should be blaming the entire party for. That goes for the traitors, the leadership that tolerates them, and their peers who agree to prop up an impotent party.
You’re the person who wanted to “reach across the isles” in supporting flat world and transphobia on .world, saying you should platform and debate those morons. I don’t think you can say anything about this.
There are communities and entire instances dedicated to shit like this. The kind that will ban you for disagreeing. That’s what I was looking to prevent.
My comments aren’t deleted. Their comments aren’t deleted. Nobody is banned just for having that opinion. That’s the difference.
Why have a party when the party never has control of their animals?
The Republicans have no issue voting in line
We know who they are.
“Republicans, and apparently some Democrats, are still obsessed with limiting noncitizen voting”
Why is this a crazy concept?!
Because you didn’t quote the whole thing.
Republicans, and apparently some Democrats, are still obsessed with limiting noncitizen voting, which is already illegal and exceedingly rare.
Murder is far more common than noncitizen voting, but I think we can agree that it would be a ridiculous waste of Congressional time to keep passing bills to make murder illegal.
You’ve also missed the point of the article, and really the point of the SAVE Act itself.
But the bill will no doubt make it more difficult for millions of people to vote, particularly some 69 million married women who have taken their spouse’s name and do not have a birth certificate matching their legal name.
There are not 69 million noncitizens voting in elections. So even if you think we need a new law to crack down on noncitizen voting, the damage it causes far outweighs the problem it solves.
Sounds exactly like something a noncitizen would say.
