Rules:
1. Be civil
Attack the argument, not the person or their instance. No racism/sexism/bigotry. Good faith argumentation only. This includes accusing another user of being a bot or paid actor.

2. All posts should contain a source (url) that is as reliable and unbiased as possible and must only contain one link.
Obvious biased sources will be removed at the mods’ discretion. Supporting links can be added in comments or posted separately but not to the post body. Sources may be checked for reliability using Wikipedia, MBFC, AdFontes, GroundNews, etc.
3. No bots, spam or self-promotion.
Only approved bots, which follow the guidelines for bots set by the instance, are allowed.
4. Post titles should be the same as the article used as source. Clickbait titles may be removed.
Posts which titles don’t match the source may be removed. If the site changed their headline, we may ask you to update the post title. Clickbait titles use hyperbolic language and do not accurately describe the article content. When necessary, post titles may be edited, clearly marked with [brackets], but may never be used to editorialize or comment on the content.

Mods may use discretion to pre-approve videos or press releases from highly credible sources that provide unique, newsworthy content not available or possible in another format.
7. No duplicate posts.
If an article has already been posted, it will be removed. Different articles reporting on the same subject are permitted. If the post that matches your post is very old, we refer you to rule 5.
8. Misinformation is prohibited.
Misinformation / propaganda is strictly prohibited. Any comment or post containing or linking to misinformation will be removed. If you feel that your post has been removed in error, credible sources must be provided.
9. No link shorteners or news aggregators.
All posts must link to original article sources. You may include archival links in the post description. News aggregators such as Yahoo, Google, Hacker News, etc. should be avoided in favor of the original source link.

Oh boy, gridlock here we come. Enough votes to send stuff to him, but not enough to override his veto.
It's much more than this, but even this part is an absolute win. No more rubber stamping whatever Toddler Trump wants. It's a return of checks and balances. It opens up doors to investigations, shutting down budgets that fund his nonsense, blocking everything he wants to do, blocking appointments, and impeachment (though I still expect it never to pass the Senate unless they can show some smoking guns - even then I'm not sure).
I could see Republicans agreeing to impeach Trump under the backroom deal that the Dark Enlightenment's own fuccboi JD Vance is left out of it.
I'm not entirely sure that deal is worth taking.
Everyone with an R by their name is complicit.
EV RY ONE.
You have a r in your name. So do i! ARE WE COMPLICIT!!!11!1! DUN DUN DUUUN.
I am very tired this is a stupid joke. No i wont say sorry. But i do need more nyquil.
its also sadly meaning trump will block anything they want to do too.
I wouldn't be so sure, things are going to get weird. I wouldn't be surprised if Trump signs some early Dem legislation just to spite Republicans for losing. People seem to forget the president has the most obvious case of NPD ever seen and dementia.
Fucking good. That way when Dems try to actually pass legislation and make shit happen, Trump can veto it and all the blame can be squarely laid at his feet.
Dems need to actually keep that in the news cycle too. Establishment dems definitely have a “people don’t want us to brag” mentality, but it means that republicans are really good at auto-fellation in comparison. Congress needs to keep putting wildly popular legislation on his desk, and every single time he vetoes it, they need to raise hell.
Every single bill he vetoes should be a branding iron on his flabby pale ass. Forcibly brand him as the president who vetoed universal healthcare, livable minimum wage, guaranteed paid maternity/paternity leave, etc… Don’t let the news cycle (and voters) forget why the gridlock is occurring.
I am an atheist and I want Talarico on the news every fucking day talking about how God supports the Democrats path for peace and prosperity or however he wants to phrase it. Like 2/3rs of Americans are religious and the right somehow claimed them all without any kind of fight from Democrats.
That's okay. No more court appointments. And full control of the budget. That will be enough to turn this regime into a lame duck administration.
Gridlock is the better option, compared to the last two years.
The problem is that the process will be gridlocked, while he'll still be exercising his executive power unchecked.
ill take gridlock over the big beutiful bill
