Kissinger is probably four degrees of separation from Epstein at the most and that's assuming Epstein had a handler

AOC has been sheepdogging hard. That vote blue no matter who bullshit, refusing to condemn the Palestinian genocide for over a year, voting for that ADL "antisemitism" bill. Not ready to throw the baby out with the bathwater yet but it wouldn't be surprising if she goes all social imperialist all of a sudden.

Productive for whom? Having an assload of dem bills isn't progress in and of itself. What did that congress pass that made life meaningfully better for everyone? They could have passed single payer healthcare, didn't. They could have passed medicare for all, didn't. They could have raised the federal minimum wage, didn't. Could have codified Roe v. Wade, fucking didn't.

First they filled the Obama cabinet with citibank execs right as it became clear that bankers had caused the economic equivalent of a manmade famine for a quick buck. Then, when it was time to pass the bills that got them elected they dragged their feet and watered down the bills as soon as they had the flimsiest excuse. I won't call it "compromising" because if they absolutely wanted to put their foot down and pass all that shit, they could have. We've seen ample proof. Their sponsors wouldn't stand for it and that's who calls the shots in Washington.

The purpose of a machine is what it does. Whenever Dems have a majority all they do is stall or endlessly dilute their bills until what was originally supposed to be a meal program or closing a loophole for insurance to scam people or whatever, has to include millions for cops or the DEA or an aid package for Israel. Real convenient how they're allowed to be real loud and progressive only when they're guaranteed to lose the vote.

The system remains functionally the same. It matters very little who has the majority, whatever the government ends up doing is usually what is popular with billionaires.

Nice sources commie but have you considered that I can't hear you and Putler is a poopyhead and you probably want to kiss him on the mouth?

You've got it the wrong way round, the axis of evil which is NATO did denounce the elections. Most of the rest of the world sent observers who confirmed the results.

Few exceptions, of course, as Lula seems to rather like how his ass feels on the fence and Boric hasn't found a boot big enough that he won't have a go at licking it.

I'm sorry you're unable to defend a single point without resorting to contrived scenarios where every option except the one you want is unbelievably stupid or cartoonishly evil

Condescension is bad enough when you're an expert, but when you think yourself the only smart person because you're not as dumb as the dumbest people on earth, it's just laughable.

I can understand your point just fine and I struggle to see why the analogy is needed except to distort the truth into some fantasy world where getting killed by a gun and getting killed by a knife are just such an obvious choice, because one is shit and the other is an artisanal brownie or whatever you're pretending this is.
