The U.S. House has voted overwhelmingly to set aside an effort to impeach President Donald Trump over the military strikes in Iran. A lone Democrat, Rep.
Most Democrats joined the Republican majority to table the measure
Fucking utter cowards all.
US democracy dies cause Dems can’t/won’t fight effectively or message appropriately.
And don’t come at me with “they and their families are under threat from MAGA terrorists”…
Know what? Our predecessors who fought for US democracy were under similar if not worse threats… They stood up then in the face of those threats and these current cowardly fucks can just as well stand the fuck up now or continue to wear the coward badge. Fucking sick of Dem cowardice.

Really? It looks to me like US democracy dies because a majority of Americans voted for the overt fascists, largely based on disinformation, propaganda and prejudice, and helped along by a dollop of voter suppression.
The only correction is that a plurality of voters that voted voted for the overt fascists.
Neither candidate won a majority…
A huge swath of Americans eligible to vote failed to vote at all largely based on disinformation, propaganda and prejudice, and helped along by a dollop of voter suppression.
“At this time, at this moment, we are focusing on what this big, ugly bill is going to do,” he said about the big Trump tax breaks package making its way through Congress. “I think anything outside of that is a distraction because this is the most important thing that we can focus on.”
Republicans will ram through whatever shit they can whether it’s legal or not, and Democrats will trip over their own dicks and let the parliamentarian block them even when they have a majority.
I increasingly feel like voting for people is a bad system. I don’t want to pick someone to make all the decisions for me: just let me vote directly on the issue dammit. Tired of representatives lying to get elected or doing heel turns or chickening out.

Correct me if I’m wrong, I’m not American.

Absolutely agree
Such a garbage excuse.

If only we had a Congress that could do 2 things at the same time
They’re able to lie and suck off Trump at the same time.
Note that he didn’t say anything about actually DEFEATING that bill.
Like with Trump himself, they’ll just fundraise on it while refusing to break any norms to defeat or even stall it.
And Vichy Democrats wonder why their approval rating is down in the Mariana Trench. Fuck this damn party
I’ll say this as many times as needs to be said. Liberals will see this shit and then tell you to rally around the Democrats with a straight face.
