  1.  @alexandria6063  MAGAs really have become extreme. What society bans books about different ethnicities.

  2. But MAGA is extreme. Not until 2022-2023 did MAGA suddenly decide that 2000+ books on the booksheves are a threat to their children. MAGA is threatened by any reading material that's not straight, white, and Christian. Why do they feel so threatened?

  3. No it's not an adult subject. Sexuality starts in the teenage years. It's not like people wait until age 18 and decide to suddenly "become gay."

  4. Every older generation is soooo concerned about the changing times and "the future of our nation." Yet we continue on. We will be fine. Try not to panic.

  5. Please explain how books about the experience of certain ethnicities or about the holocaust don't belong in schools. Do we not go to school to learn?

  6.  @mikesampson2336  Communist? How so? Every time I hear this I have to question the education level of the person saying it. Here we are in 2023 and people cannot bother to google the definition of communism.

  7. You don't impeach someone over a policy dispute. Republicans unconstitutionally impeach someone who engaged in no misconduct, high crimes, or misdemeanors, then accuse Democrats of "breaking norms" by not taking unserious Republicans seriously. Then Republicans will use this as yet another nonsense excuse to ignore Trump's rampant corruption.

  8. Charged under RICO for what? What crimes would be charged? Republicans couldn't even find a high crime or misdemeanor to charge Mayorkas with. Yet they impeached him anyway over a policy dispute. Republicans always openly breaking rules, norms, and laws. Yet they are always the angry ones demanding to speak to the manager.
    1
  9. When Trump got impeached for trying to overthrow the government, Republicans tried to ignore it. But when Republicans unconstitutionally impeach someone over a policy dispute, they want to complain to the manager that they are not taken seriously. And they threaten Democrats with more corruption by promising to ignore future impeachments with a basis in reality.

  10. ​ @michaelgrove7463  What are you talking about? These were leaders of the Proud Boys including the National Chairman Tarrio. Also, how have they been treated unfairly? They planned for months to disrupt the transition by force.
    1
  11.  @michaelgrove7463  The thing about a conspiracy is you only have to be part of the planning in order to be convicted of it. Tarrio conspired (planned) with others to violently interfere with the peaceful transfer of power. That is seditious conspiracy. Nowhere in the law does it say he had to physically be there. Just that he was part of the conspiracy and planning. Leaders aren't let off the hook just because the pawns committed the actual crime.

  12.  @michaelgrove7463  No one was in jail for 2 years without charges. That is categorically false. What you meant to say was they are in jail pending trial because they either could not afford bail or the judge denied them bail.
    1
  13.  @michaelgrove7463  Actually Dominic was not held without charges. He was indicted Jan 29, 2021, just weeks after the riot. The judge ordered that he be held without bail. I was able to look that up in less than 30 seconds.

  14. Why do Republicans suddenly want to tear everything down and crash the economy when a Democrat is in the White House? Almost all the recent debt came from Trump's irresponsible years in office, but Republicans want Democrats to clean up the mess.

  15. The eyewitnesses were wrong. The videos were either misinterpreted or selectively edited. Fox News knows the election wasn't stolen. Theirs hosts know. Republicans politicians know. Trump's entire administration knew. Sidney Powell knows. Rudy Giuliani knows. Democrats know. Independents know. But Trump's most diehard supporters will take that lie to their grave before they will admit they were duped. Because they WANTED to believe the Big Lie. They have made it part of their identity.

  16.  @swagmaster622  This is the problem with conspiracy theorists. Anything they don't want to hear is a false flag. Check out the latest news on the defamation suit between Dominion Voting Systems against Fox and then tell me how honest Fox is. 😉 If I'm not mistaken, Fox told you that votes were stolen by voting machines.
    1
  17. Yet only Fox is on course to lose up to $4.5 BILLION for......wait for it.... lying. Every accusation is an admission of guilt.

  18. Now might be a good time to bring up that study that showed that Fox News viewer know less about current events than people who watch NO news at all. No kidding, watching Fox literally has a negative effect on your intelligence. It's like comfort food. Drenched in butter and clogging all your arteries. But at least you get to feel good (angry??) in the moment.

  19. He's actually a better speaker than Obama to be honest.

  20. What do you mean by establishment politicians? Doesn't that just mean anyone who has been there for more than a few years?

  21.  @nicholasrouleau8280  They keep getting reelected because of name recognition and money. People already in office almost always have a built in advantage. It's one of the reasons Biden is running again instead of hoping another Democrat can win.
    1
  22.  @nicholasrouleau8280  No one forced Republicans in Kentucky to keep reflecting Mitch McConnell.
    1
  23.  @swagmaster622  No. Americans were deceived and manipulated into thinking an election was stolen from them. Trump did it for power and attention. Fox did it for profit. And you can "prefer" to call it whatever you want. But we've all seen the videos (even though you probably tried your hardest to NOT see them, LoL). 300+ people assaulting police is not peaceful.

  24.  @FWBromberg  A lot of times, pet projects are needed to get enough votes for passage. Yes, you are buying someone's vote so they have something to go home and tell their constituents about. Also, what counts as ridiculous spending to you? I hear this a lot from conservatives, but they are never able to specify anything they would actually cut that would save more than 0.0001% of spending. Which means they are just looking for reasons to complain without offering meaningful solutions.

  25. What is it that Democrats accused Republicans of here that Democrats have also done?
    1
  26.  @megpie9971  Not true. There is not one thing that Democrats have done themselves that they are accusing Republicans of doing here. Just Republican hopes and dreams that they can blame "both sides" for causing all the dysfunction and people will believe it.
    1
  27.  @swagmaster622  So clearly you think those people were all dumb for being duped. Yet you also said you support insurrection because you think the presidency was stolen. So much contradiction. You support it but you also think it was fake. Lol Question: Would you yourself attack law enforcement if you were supposedly let in?
    1
  28.  @robbythecuban  The only thing Adam Kinzinger and Liz Cheney did to become "not Republicans" was push back on Trump's election falsehoods. Are you saying you are only allowed to be a Republican if you support lies about the election? 🤔

  29. The Republicans ARE doing a stunt. New York's level of crime is not high at all compared to most other large cities. Yet Republicans decided to bring their entire congressional committee to New York to highlight "so much crime." It's a stunt to please the felon Donald Trump and excite the FOX audience and everyone will forget about it by next week.

  30. No one is letting murderers go free. Not sure who told you that but they were mistaken.
    1
  31.  @backwardsland1  That may be true, and we can debate the policies around criminal justice reform and mass incarceration. But there's no need to exaggerate the facts by saying murderers are being set free before trial.
    1
  32. It's a decrease in crime. Republicans are determined to push this false narrative that crime is super high in New York. Determined. But it's not going to make it true. This is a stunt for an audience of one. Republicans are so scared of Trump.

  33. So basically you're saying most people shouldn't have to pay taxes. What a nice dream that must be.

  34. Almost no nations "live within their means." Economically speaking, it is actually good policy to take on debt if the money you spend helps to grow the economy. It's like a company taking out debt to buy trucks to ship their product. You just have to make sure the debt doesn't grow at a faster rate than the economy.
    1
  35. How do you know they are funding "ridiculous things"? Taking out debt is actually a good thing if it helps to grow the economy faster. It's like a company taking out debt to buy trucks to ship their product.

  36. Actually it's meant to make MTG look bad seeing as she's the one who lied.

  37.  @joeschneider3894  I'm sure the mother also thinks it's funny that MTG used the deaths of her sons to start launching political attacks against the wrong person.

  38. What is "unbiased resources"?

  39.  @gemmahenry757  Yes he is guilty. He refused to turn over government documents subject to a grand jury subpoena. And he was responsible for trying to defraud the United States with that fake electors plot.

  40. ​ @dickjones8119 This is the problem with MAGA. No goals, no vision. Just hurting minorities and blowing up the system not matter who it hurts. Cruel and evil.

  41.  @swagmaster622  From the latest Jan 6 sentencing of 3 years in prison. "In the 25 months since Jan. 6, 2021, more than 985 individuals have been arrested in nearly all 50 states for crimes related to the breach of the U.S. Capitol, including approximately 319 individuals charged with assaulting or impeding law enforcement. The investigation remains ongoing." Those poor innocent people. How could anyone accuse them of being domestic terrorists 😱
    1
  42.  @swagmaster622  Now you are exaggerating. The ones who only trespassed only got misdemeanors with very short sentences or no jail time at all. The harsh sentences only went to the violent ones, the ones who encouraged rioting or theft, and the ones who broke into the Senate chamber. If we were in Russia or China, all of them would be in prison for life. Be happy you're in America, where you can attack the government based on a conspiracy theory about election fraud and get off with just a 30 day jail sentence or probation.
    1
  43.  @swagmaster622  Okay. So you supported the Jan 6 attack. So stop acting like it wasn't actually Trump supporters. They deserve to be in prison. And so does Trump for sending them there.

  44.  @LibertarianRF  I disagree. Democrats want us to have a well developed social safety net like most other developed countries. They are fighting against large corporations and economic elites that many Republicans claim to despise but ideologically refuse to do anything about. And they want every citizen to be able to vote. Period. Yes, they push vaccine mandates, but that is the scientifically responsible thing to do and is being done in most other developed nations. To call them fascist is grossly overexaggerating. Republicans....very few policy ideas. Their 2020 platform was LITERALLY "Support Trump". Their 2022 platform is "Defeat Democrats." They flood the zone with conspiracy theories. They push back against any social movement that aims to increase equality. And beyond that, they do not believe that Democrats should be allowed to win elections. To them, if Democrats win, by definition it is because of fraud and therefore illegitimate...... Only one party scapegoats black people, Hispanics, and Muslims for society's problems. And only one party in history has tried to seditiously overturn a presidential election they lost. All in deference to one man. But you say Democrats are moving toward fascism 🤷‍♂️

  45. @Rumpus Maface If I hear one more person say "both sides suck" as if both sides are rooting against democracy. Both sides do not want every citizen to vote. Both sides do not think the other should even have the right to win. Only one party is expected by most people to act with bipartisanship to "maintain order," but the other party just get a pass on its responsibilities.
    1
  46.  @interestedparty00  No I won't admit that. Because you can't win a single case in court, which is where you should take your complaints of fraud if valid.
    1
  47.  @interestedparty00  The GOP’s strategy for elections these days: Claim in advance the contest is rigged, delegitimize common voting methods (e.g., voting by mail), concoct outlandish conspiracy theories to assert the election was “stolen” and then use partisan, fake audits to sow doubt in the results and, if possible, change the outcome.
    1
  48. @Rumpus Maface Unfortunately, there are NOT more than two choices. Our system only supports two parties. Third-party candidates have no real infrastructure, sources of funding, or laws supporting them in order to win. That's why Bernie Sanders had to run as a Democrat. People who lean left but voted "third party" are the same people who allowed Donald Trump to win in 2016.

  49.  @interestedparty00  When Republicans control the federal courts (thanks to Trump's 200+ appointments) and they still can't win a single court case, maybe you should start to question your conspiracy theories 🤷🏾‍♂️ Btw, how did that Republican-run Arizona audit go. I heard Biden actually gained more votes 😂

  50.  @interestedparty00  Cheating you can't even prove exists. But sure, blame it on the judges. 60+ judges (10 appointed by Trump himself). ALL of them are corrupt or "afraid of making trouble". Whatever fits the lie you want to hear.
