He probably wants the death penalty. Don’t give him what he wants.

I think he was referring to the Q Party's outrage about it, not you.

The problem with the southern border is that there is a problem.

The Q crowd wants walls, moats, alligators and whatever else to keep people out at all costs.

Many on the left don't even want to recognize that there is a problem.

But North America isn't a Schengen-like zone and until and unless it becomes something like that (which it probably never will), you absolutely do have a problem when thousands, tens of thousands, millions of people over a relatively short period of time in human history cross, and exclusively in one direction.

There has to be a proper discussion of US immigration policy vis-a-vis the southern border. However, that too appears impossible with today's divisions.

So the problem will persist.

To be honest

Sorry, was directed at the outrage.

I believe it broke down on the highway and is waiting for AAA to show up.

The real problem is the US using its influence, overtly or covertly, to disrupt governments in South America that threaten to lay claim to their own resources since the end of World War II. Until that stops, the US has no moral high ground on which to refuse asylum to a single soul that reaches its borders.

This is more detrimental to mental health than COVID, honestly.

In Canada we severely limit how long an active federal campaign can last (between 36 and 50 DAYS) and even then I'm sick of it.

Agree. People are burnt out and have been for years. It’s ugly, tribal, and only divides us more.

It both sides everything to where people assume both parties are exactly the same.

The GQP primaries are going to make 2016 look civil.

But don’t want to even waste another thought on it. Focus needs to be on pandemic, voting rights, and squashing whatever crises appear.

At this point all focus should be on securing 2022 election

We have a global pandemic, an attempted coup and party that doesn’t believe in democracy, multiple public mass shootings in a week

And Biden is asked, two months into his term

Are you running for re-election in 2024??

The media is so disappointing

Only rural voters count

This is all they've got

(CNN)In the span of a few hours Thursday, the GOP-controlled Georgia legislature sped a sweeping elections bill through both chambers, putting the battleground state on a course to impose new voting restrictions on citizens in a state that was pivotal to securing Democratic control of the White House and the US Senate.

The bill passed the Georgia Senate by 34-20 late Thursday afternoon and headed to the desk of Republican Gov. Brian Kemp, who announced moments after the vote that he would sign it later Thursday.

The legislation would impose new voter identification requirements for absentee ballots, empower state officials to take over local elections boards, limit the use of ballot drop boxes and make it a crime to approach voters in line to give them food and water.


"It's like the Christmas tree of goodies for voter suppression," Democratic state Sen. Jen Jordan said on the Senate floor as lawmakers considered the nearly 100-page bill.

and it’ll work if nothing gets done by senate. Not sure any EO can undo the damage

[BEAL]

It’s filibuster or democracy

GA won’t be the only state to enact these suppression laws.

Dominion filed a 1.6 billion dollar defamation suit against Fox News. Poor Fox

Georgia is the keystone to all of this, as they're now fully a purple state.

There are some very large businesses operating out of Atlanta. Might be time to drink some Pepsi.
