I think you'll find the people who didn't get vaccinated had that political affiliation already, they didn't decide on it because they didn't want to get vaccinated.

if the Supreme Court were to invalidate either the EPA’s authority or the vaccine mandate under this doctrine, it might unravel nearly every major law Congress has passed since World War II. Nearly every one of these laws involves delegating authority to U.S. agencies.

So the Lincoln Project has tried for weeks to get Trump to comment on Youngkin and today he did.
But he did not do what they expected (tell his supporters not to vote or that the whole thing is rigged) instead he tells them to flood the polls and go vote.



Same message here, the way to secure elections is to flood the polls.

MTG's total is up to $48,000 so far and could go higher:
Rep. Marjorie Taylor Greene (R-Ga.) has been reprimanded by the House sergeant-at-arms at least 20 times this year for refusing to wear a mask in the chamber, which has added up to $48,000 worth of associated fines.

The House Ethics Committee publicly disclosed on Monday that Greene had been fined at least seven times this year, most recently in late September.

But the committee's public disclosures, which come after lawmakers have had 30 days to file an appeal if they wish, appear to be just a fraction of all of Greene's mask violations to date.

According to a letter from House Sergeant-at-Arms William Walker dated Oct. 28, Greene has been documented not wearing a mask in the House chamber at least 20 times since May. Greene was fined $500 in May for her first offense, with $2,500 penalties imposed for subsequent offenses.

"You have been observed not wearing a mask on July 29, August 2, September 20, 21, 23, 24, 27, 28, 29, 30, and October 1, 12, 19, 20, 21, 22, 25, 26, and 27, and have been asked by a member of my staff to wear a mask while in the Hall of the House of Representatives on each occasion unless recognized to speak by the chair," Walker wrote in the letter, which Greene's office shared with The Hill.
She gets $174,000 as a member of the House.

isn't yelling fire in a crowded theater actually protected speech like anything else, but when you get in trouble of it you're charged with something not explicitly related to the first amendment

similar to how your freedom to say "fuck you officer" can result in disturbing the peace or obstruction of justice or any number of things unrelated to the literal words you said

FACT CHECK:

https://www.theatlantic.com/national/archive/2012/11/its-time-to-stop-using-the-fire-in-a-crowded-theater-quote/264449/

Quote
Ninety-three years ago, Justice Oliver Wendell Holmes wrote what is perhaps the most well-known -- yet misquoted and misused -- phrase in Supreme Court history: "The most stringent protection of free speech would not protect a man in falsely shouting fire in a theatre and causing a panic."

Without fail, whenever a free speech controversy hits, someone will cite this phrase as proof of limits on the First Amendment. And whatever that controversy may be, "the law"--as some have curiously called it--can be interpreted to suggest that we should err on the side of censorship. Holmes' quote has become a crutch for every censor in America, yet the quote is wildly misunderstood.

Not just taking the easy W and passing the infrastructure bill is certainly looking like a misstep by the Democrats.

Instead they went for a 3.5 trillion dollar liberal wishlist that was almost certainly dead on arrival anyways and produce nothing but infighting for months. Way to go, guys.

It would have at least been something for an administration that seems like it is barely treading water.

If it wasn't for the pandemic this is what 2020 would've been like.

The Democrats learned nothing from Trump 2016 but they also didn't learn from any of their own victories that followed (because they solely pinned that on 'Trump' too)
And Trump will happily take the flak as the GOP prepares to sweep the board next year.

What a king

(Image removed from quote.)

(Image removed from quote.)

This basically feels like the future of everywhere in America.

non-college white people running for GOP winning because the country is polarized and enough people just hate the left/democrats/progressives to vote them all out.

At this point I think I've given up all hope of things getting better for the left and fully expect a bankrupt country falling apart led by dictators for the rest of my life. Pretty much just have to save up money and hunker down and survive the fallout for another 40 years or so until I'm dead.

Democrats just need to abandon the culture wars and leave that to the NGO's and activisits.
Telling people you're going to replace their children's teachers and removing historic landmarks is just not a very good idea.
That turns people who would otherwise vote blue or don't vote at all against you.

They also seem willing to die on hills nobody gives a fuck about.
People that voted for Biden could easily vote for another Democrat with the right message.
Freshen up the leadership of the party for starters, Pelosi and Schumer are dinosaurs not exactly the type of people you need to get the vote out.

The Republicans are willing to take all or nothing bets, sometimes that works out for them and sometimes it doesn't.
Make AOC speaker or drop the progressives entirely, do something wild for a change. Complaining about Russia or white people on CNN isn't getting them anywhere.
