    This is the inevitable outcome of “vote blue no matter who”. Every time Republicans need something, they magically get enough support from a rotating set of Dems. The DNC should be sued for racketeering.

    They’ve done more than that this month, but this is par for the course for Democrats, who always pretend to be just oh-so-powerless in the face of fascism, when in reality they are active participants.

    My 80 year-old mom’s Social Security payment was 1/3 of what it usually is, and the SSA tried to gaslight her about not updating her address or reporting my father’s death when she had written down the call information and could repeat it to the SSA operator.

    Now she has to get an in-person appointment, which could take weeks or months, in order to sort it all out. I have every expectation that it’ll be blamed on a ‘clerical error’ or some shit and the whole point is to just steal a few months’ worth of her money by making her jump through a hoop.

    In the meantime, we all know where that money’s going: to Donald and his bootlickers.

      Vicente Gonzalez

      Who represents part of the poor-as-fuck Rio Grande Valley. Texas is gerrymandered to hell, and that even means the democrats we get are conservatives.

      Which is also why you don’t see centrists fighting gerrymandering of red states and why they gave up on gerrymandering Virginia. Centrists like republican districts because they align with centrists’ vision of a fascist future with token minorities in the photos to make everything all right.
