  1. Can trump lead by example and test the disinfectant on himself? I think it would definitely help the country infact his judges could also try it out just to be sure they understand when the cases come to the courts...
    89
  2. 7 people picking the leader of a country. This is the Democracy the USA wants to spread around the world...
    89
  3. I guess after blowing a 2 trillion dollar hole in the federal budget the Senate couldn't afford to photocopy the investigation 302 forms for each senator to read at the same time. This is a cover up clear for everyone to see.
    89
  4. Just voted for Marianne Williamson hoping my state can convince the DNC to actually count my vote in our banana republic
    86
  5. Time for other unions to strike in solidarity with the railroad unions same as we saw in Canada.
    84
  6. Well ofcourse the fascists think the anti fascist are a problem. The Nazi Germany army felt the same way about the allied forces.
    82
  7. Last time I checked about a year ago 70% of the Senate was over the age of retirement. Putting them all in a high risk category.
    82
  8. Well we know Brett Kavanaugh believes that lying under oath is grounds for impeachment so if he has done that he would clearly want us to impeach him from his current bench seat. Oh right the GOP has a different policy for itself then the rest of us.
    82
  9. We are either a constitutional republic thst enforces the constitution or we are not the United States of America.
    82
  10. The police who slashed tires need to be held criminally responsible for vandalism of private property.
    81
  11. If Iran was flying a military aircraft the same distance off the coast of the USA we would definitely shoot it down and call it a military attack on the USA. But somehow when the rolls are reversed we blame Iran.
    81
  12. How sad that our government is only accountable to corporations.
    80
  13. Workers in countries with single payer healthcare are not held hostage to companies taking away their healthcare.
    79
  14. Trillions of dollar to bomb the middle east since 911 but always a fight to get healthcare for the American citizens who where involved in the actual 911 events. Shows you where our government focus really is.
    77
  15. Off grid solar would pay for itself in just a few days at the current billing rates in Texas.
    77
  16. You can't steal what is freely given. China didn't steal our manufacturing jobs or technology multinational corporations choose to invest in manufacturing facilities in China to maximize profits. Globalization has been a choice of caplistist society to maximize the profits for the barons of industry.
    77
  17. Sinema is fine with spending more than 2x as much on the military budget this isn't a question of resources it is a question of priorities. She is in favor of bombing around the world just not in favor of building infrastructure in the USA. Plenty of money for war no money for American citizens. This is what anyone voting for the defense budget but not the infrastructure bill stands for.
    76
  18. We don't need a compromise with hostage takers we just need a president who holds congress to their constitutional duty under the 14th amendment
    76
  19. Joe Manchin had no trouble voting for the 8 trillion dollar war in Afghanistan. This isn't a question of resources it is a question of priorities. Joe Manchin supports the ff industry and the military industrial complex but doesn't support a planet which supports human life.
    75
  20. Off grid solar would pay for itself in just a few days in Texas now.
    74
  21. "The hatch act doesn't apply to the president" once again this administration proves they are above the law.
    74
  22. Trumps impeachment needs to include his emoluments clause violations.
    73
  23. If Biden wants a 2 state solution why is the port temporarily? The state of Palestine will need the port going forward
    73
  24. A Democratic president being investigated for a land sale ends up in his sex life. But when the government investigates if Kavanaugh got drunk and sexually assaulted someone they refuse to let the FBI talk to people who attended drinking parties with Kavanaugh. Can you say cover up?
    73
  25. Sad when picking someone from the board of a company selling arms to the military to decide where and when to send our troops to use those weapons is considered a victory. The military industrial complex is the winner not our troops or the US taxpayers.
    72
  26. Ukraine holds their Supreme Court more accountable than we do in the usa. Our Court just voted to allow politicians to accept bribery 9 to 0.
    72
  27. Biden making an address from the safety of his home to voters he requested go wait in line during a pandemic tell you all you need to know about no empathy Joe.
    72
  28. One more reason to vote Jill Stein
    71
  29. Not sure you can call it a cold war when NATO and Russia are both fighting in Ukraine
    70
  30. Barr isn't criticizing trump he is sending him a message to stop interfering with his efforts to cover up Trump's crime spree.
    70
  31. The first thing they should say at the start of the next debate is tell them that the mic will be shut off for the candidate not speaking and the other candidates has 2 minutes uninterrupted. If they can't accept those terms tell them on national TV to walk off the stage right now. I know fox tried to get them to agree to it before hand and trump refused this time but next time I wouldn't ask permission in advance I would simply tell them on live TV this is how the debate will be run if you don't like it leave.
    70
  32. Ofcourse the cruelty is the purpose. He refused to force the GOP to follow the constitution and do their duty to fund the budget they passed last year.
    69
  33. Biden has done a good thing. He needs to continue to bring our troops home from the rest of the middle east and invest those resources into become 100% renewable energy. Just think how much wind and solar we could have bought over the last 2 decades with a little over 2 trillion dollars we wasted in Afghanistan
    69
  34. We need rank choice voting and more parties to end the duopoly.
    68
  35. The government was able to bailout the wealthy depositors at SVB over a weekend. They could do the same for student debt or to give Medicare for life for the victims of the bomb train in Ohio if it was a equal priority to them as the wealthy depositors.
    68
  36. The US Government needs to be brought before the ICJ for violation of the genocide convention
    68
  37. I knew the right wing would stand against the right of a company to not sell icecream to someone while the supreme court ruled that companies can choose not to bake a cake for a couple.
    68
  38. The Trump McConnell GOP has become a crime syndicate.
    67
  39. All 4 of the people refusing to testify should be put charged with contempt of Congress and put in jail until they agree to testify. They should be held to the same standard Chelsea Elizabeth Manning has been held to.
    67
  40. The jury should request that the bailiff take the defendant out in the street and kneel on his neck for the same length of time as he was on George Floyd to prove his defense argument.
    67
  41. Ofcourse trump doesn't call out Russia for using chemical weapons on their political opponents. Trump himself uses chemical weapons against his own citizens simply to cross the street and take a photo of himself holding the bible upside down.
    65
  42. The US Government can't pass any legislation to transition from ff to renewable energy but we can keep spending $300 million per day on the military to fight a war that is over in Afghanistan.
    64
  43. Nancy Pelosi should be forced to pass Medicare for All in the house come January.
    64
  44. Protesters should definitely all be wearing masks and face shields not only to protect themselves from the pandemic but also the tyrannical government.
    63
  45. I bet the train company simply files bankruptcy and reforms under a new name like GM did with their bankruptcy leaving the EPA with the full cost of the cleanup
    62
  46. The supreme court has already ruled that companies can choose their customers. When it ruled that a company didn't have to bake a cake for a couple.
    61
  47. This is what Bloomberg got when he bought got Congress. The best return on investment is to buy the government.
    60
  48. These police need to be arrested for violating the 1st amendment rights when they attack the journalists.
    60
  49. I see trump is treating methane leaks and climate change the same way he treats covid if you don't test for it it doesn't exist.
    60
  50. A wage freeze is the predictable result of electing a caplistist businessman as president. All good caplistist know that labor is simply a cost to be minimized to maximize profits. Wake up people this is class warfare and Warren Buffett is correct his class is winning.
