  1. Stranger Things, Silicon Valley, and Game of Thrones team up movie, I'm in.
  2. Sanders bill closes that gap. Interesting side note, the disability community is actually pretty annoyed with the Sanders version of Medicare for All since it completely ignores what to do with Long Term Care Services. Medicare for All would eliminate the need for Medicaid which is where every State houses those programs (Medicaid Waivers) and there's a lot of scary uncertainty of what a Medicare Long Term Care System would look like, especially for those in States that offer 24/7 home care and have high earned income limits that let us work (New York and California). Then you've got States like to Florida that barely do anything. That's a scary middle of the road to meet in.
  3. I wonder if there are tapes of the abortion pay off for that RNC Finance guy and if what's public about it is true....
  4. Now the fight is going to be over if Medicare for All means Single Payer or something like Medicare Advantage.
  5. Hillary Clinton, who won the popular vote. I didn't say pop up out of nowhere, though is name recognition was very low, I'm saying wouldn't have been taken seriously as a viable candidate in the primaries. He's now second behind Biden in 2020 polling. Democrats need to find a candidate who will motivate people to vote, if they go with another John Kerry or Hillary Clinton, they'll lose. Policy ideas, experience, and fear of the other candidate doesn't work with voters, it should but then we got Bush for 2 terms, a community organizer freshman Senator for 2 terms, and now Trump. All Republicans need to say is abortion to get their voters out, Democrats need more. If the Democratic Nominee can't inspire people that they'll try to fix the country, beyond the damage Trump causes, they'll stay with Trump or won't show up.
  6. Drunk tourists are the only thing keeping my county hospital alive.
  7. 3 of the 4 most successful politicians in the last decade were Obama, Sanders, and Trump. They all have one thing in common: a year or two before they entered their campaigns NOBODY in DC politics thought they had a chance and laughed at anyone who said they did. There is a universal anger in this country on left and right because the relief valve of politics, the moderates, can't function as actual moderates without losing the only reason they got there: the money. Lieberman knew he was fucked in Connecticut without insurance company money backing him. When moderates can't function the electorate will only go more extreme in search for someone to fix it: for the left that was Obama then Sanders, for the right it was Trump. Obama's failure to go after money in politics is what led to Trump.
  8. I knew a conservative political science major who made this exact argument saying Romney should have cheated because it would have been better for the country. He was dead serious too.
  9. Cripple Agenda: Removal all State and Federal asset and income requirements from disability service programs. Ban wait lists. Restore Democracy Agenda: Congressional Districts are drawn by the Judiciary Branch at the Federal level. Districts must attempt to conform to existing political boundaries (city or county lines). Money is not speech, all campaigns are publicly funded. All elections are regulated by an empowered FEC ran by the Judiciary Branch. All primary elections must be open. Same day voter registration. Ban elected Judges and Sheriffs. President can call snap elections in the House. If snap election results in a 33% change over, Senate is dissolved.
  10. Didn't Poland just invite us to permanently station an entire Armored Division there?
  11. She's a Justice Democrat so The Young Turks might have made that video.
  12. This isn't a new command, it's a new branch to provide forces to the Combatant Commanders. A branch that only one Combatant Command would have any use for, US Strategic Command since space it's area. Creating an entire branch for one Combatant Command is very stupid, every branch contributes forces to every Combatant Command, wtf are Space Force people going to do at Africa Command?
  13. My sister has a small online business in California, configuring Square Space to collect the right amount was nightmare since zip code doesn't equal county.
