There's a reasonable interpretation of the constitution that changing each states 2 member representation in the Senate would require every state to sign off on it and not even a constitutional amendment could fix this

People should be the focus, not states.

Just need the Republicans in...checks notes...New York City....to get out of the way so that this can be fixed

Fucking bananas

"I watch Fox, I am reasonable, therefore all Fox viewers must be reasonable" because they don't want to grapple with the fact that the people they ally with, the Republican base, are absolutely terrifying

Americans are fundamentally stupid people

BuT mUh NoRmS These dipshits are bringing unsharpened twigs to a gun fight

This is understandably ignored background history in the article, but the irony of this all is that the American revolution kicked off a series of events in France that led to Napoleon being able to force some sort of organization on these German states. These same ideals that kicked off decades of continent wide war, leading ultimately to the crowing achievement of "national" democratic governance (the EU and it's member states, flawed as it is), and our inability to fully embrace these ideals lead us, if not now then eventually if action is not taken, into fascism and semi permanent minority rule authoritarianism

Even more tellingly, I'd give money to someone with Michael Bennett politics if they weren't such a fucking coward about actually wielding political authority

The Richmond City Jail’s COVID-19 Response? “Torture.” RVAMAG.COM People incarcerated at Richmond City Justice Center say a recent tear-gassing by law enforcement endangered their lives. On August 29th, […] I’m sorry what now

Gottem

I want to be wrong for once but a literal reading of conservative judicial opinions in the past two decades doesn’t give me hope

Related to the first tweet, it’s entirely possible for a bunch of federalist society hacks to give the reasoning “the constitution gives authority to appoint electoral college votes specifically to the legislature of each state, they deferred it to the people/secretary of state, and can reclaim their authority whenever the legislature sees fit” you also can’t read the majority opinion in bush v gore or the minority opinion in Arizona legislature v Arizona independent redistricting commission and not come away with this impression

No one wants to read my shitty fan fiction

Once the American republic is formally over and the Republican Party takes perpetual power it’s only a matter of time before Canada becomes a dominion of America

Sad part is, on this issue Romney is the lone voice of anything resembling sanity on the right. The rest of them are a-o-k with trump doing whatever it takes to stay in office

2-3 days of “it was BLM/antifa” before we find out it’s some 3%-er type stirring the pot just my guess or maybe it’s actual anger toward those who defend cold blooded killers who face no repercussions for their actions

Turkey and Russia here we come! A Semi democratic authoritarian state is a fun place to be in for the most militarily powerful nation in human history

City of Richmond sent my wife and I each two absentee ballots so we’re ready to do some voter fraud for antifa joe Biden !
