He doesn't need to switch parties though, the leadership is on board with throwing trans women under the bus and approving GOP spending bills.

Too bad the other posts where people took the time to explain to you that the CCP isn't what you claimed it was, has been removed.

Article is like, didn't make enough to save for retirement? How about you start saving now?

Retirement in America is going to involve cat food for many.

Yeah, he has the political experience to know when to throw his party under the bus. My mom has been voting Democrat for 40 years, somehow that CR vote is what convinced her to go 3rd party next election. Only someone with that much political experience could have pulled that off.

I think it's the other way around. The executive branch has signaled it will ignore the courts. If SCOTUS makes a ruling that Trump would later ignore, then the public perception will be that the courts have no power. If they go along with Trump, they at least get to preserve the facade.

That is the definition of liberalism but that is not the loved experience of unhoused people in the USA. If you are unhoused there are a lot of moral judgements that come along with that.

Harder? Being queer and unhoused can be pretty damn bad in the states. In China your boss might say something bad but you don't have to worry about being homeless.

Yeah, I got questions about Tienanmen, but not the same ones. Like was the CIA involved in the counter protest outside the school campus?

Also, there is searchable queer content on RedNote, the app own by the CCP

Because of rampant inflation?

The true sign of a junior developer is they want to rewrite what they don't understand instead of actually understanding why the system is the way it is or how it works

What am I saying, they aren't going to rewrite it, they're going to have AI do it 🙄

Oh thx, I needed the reminder to call that piece of shit

he distinguished himself from a long line of Republican leaders who appeared to threaten the programs, even though many of them did so out of sincere concern for their fiscal soundness

Lol. Yeah, the GOP is motivated out of fiscal soundness.🙄

Social security cannot add to our debt and will continue to work even if it isn't fully funded, but with reduced payouts.
