Biggest thing is that Texas has horribly low voter turnout. The state could easily go purple if left leaving people would actually show up and vote.

It should be fine as long you don’t click through any SSL errors. And something like a bank should have HSTS enabled, meaning your browser will refuse to load the site if there’s an SSL error.
That’s what most exploit-based hacks are. A developer makes a dumb mistake and then someone exploits it to do something they shouldn’t be able to do.
They got 13% of the vote, even if they didn’t win many seats.
Texas is mostly a cultural issue. The left in this state are a bunch of defeatist do-nothings who think Texas will always be red. I cannot tell you the number of times I’ve talked to a like minded person, asked them about voting, only for them to give some half-hearted excuse why they didn’t/won’t.
With the way early voting works here, suppression is hard to pull off. For 2 weeks you can show up at any polling place to vote, even the ones in the rich white neighborhoods. The last time I voted, it took all of 10 minutes. There’s no doubt some fuckery with voter registration, but you have plenty of opportunity to check your status online ahead of the election.
Or convince them to vote RFK. My dad would normally vote Trump, but he’s an anti-vaccine nutter, so I’m trying to convince him to vote RFK instead.
The Supreme Court hasn’t had a liberal majority since the 80s. The difference is that until the Trump appointments, the nakedly partisan political hacks were a minority on the court.
Do you people really not realize that the Republicans control the House?
Because the Democrats have not had an actual majority since 2010. The closest they got was 2020-2022, but two senators ended up being traitors who were bought out.
I’ve seen plenty of the usual suspects complaining that the IRA didn’t do enough despite it being the largest green energy bill ever passed.
There’s not one at all because it’s a violation of freedom of association in the 1st amendment.
Yes it is. That opportunity passed in 2022 when the Dems lost control of the House.
Ok, but to do this, the Dems would need a blowout election in their favor. They would need to retake the House and have a commanding lead in the Senate so that they can get this passed even with a couple turncoats.
Biden isn’t a fascist and neither are the people he appointed. Even if he gave an illegal order, it wouldn’t be followed because his administration isn’t stocked with incompetent lackies chosen for their loyalty alone.
They impeached Trump twice. It’s not their fault the Constitution requires a 2/3 majority to convict and only 7 Republicans were willing to put country above party.
Corporations aren’t suddenly going to stop being evil. You can sit around and blame them all you want, but that’s not going to change anything.
If a plane falls out of the sky, do you go around blaming gravity? It’s ultimately the cause, but doing so is pointless. Instead, you concentrate on the things that can be changed.
Yes, that’s what happens when you give a party the slimmest margin of victory possible (50/50 in the Senate), and then 2 of the senators end up being corrupt traitors. His agencies have been making good decisions. I am not a young man and these last few years are the first time I’ve seen the federal government make actual pro-worker and pro-consumer decisions.
He’s accomplished more than Obama in half the time, not that that’s saying much.
Yeah, if only his party had control of the House.
I rewatched the KSP2 announcement trailer recently. It’s still great, but the song definitely feels more like a funeral dirge now.
