Geesh what Repubs will do for attention.

I have a DeSatan fan on twitter absolutely furious that I called that debate a Desantis massacre. Fox NEws has assured them repeatedly Sedantis won and Newsom just blubbered and cried the whole time. However, they refuse to watch the debate, claiming it has been AI altered. Even on Fox's own site. Derp state or some shit.

Sadly the war criminal lived 100 years in comfort, the gag order won't work, DeSantis still has years to fuck over Florida, Moms of Liberty will barely take a hit, and Santos should have been expelled months ago or never elected at all. We're grasping at straws here. Sorry. I'm pissy this morning I guess.
noneedtodoxme
The real dystopian situation is in the comments, unfortunately.
AnastasiaM007
Santos stayed in office as long as he did pending an investigation. Democrats didn't want to set a precedent of expelling members without an investigation.
Strategicgnomer
Pessimism kills progress. Take the wins and push for more. These things don't change with everyone sitting there being apathetic. No quicker way to kill momentum than to act like it isn't useful.
Totallynotarealbear
Lots to still be pissy about.
anarchoFeline
you are absolutely right so no need to apologize. none of this stuff is actually that impactful.
beesleep
DeSantis is term limited so only has a couple more years. after his presidential bid fizzles out i could totally see him pulling a Palin honestly. some claptrap about 'already accomplishing what i needed to do for Florida' and maybe some 'spend time with family' or 'the mainstream media attacks on me are keeping Florida from moving forward' blah blah blah
Eldibs
You're right that these are small victories at best, but if you don't feel good about small victories you'll never achieve larger ones.
litelbrown
Saying Desantis got smoked by Newsome is kinda dumb. Nobody really won that debate. No minds were changed.

Santos was a pathological lying crook whose likely to be found to be an embezzling thief. The only surprise was so many GQP voting him out

The one thing the GOP doesn't stand for is campaign finance laws...or it use to be that way. They are good with stealing money but not stealing from each other.

MisterBambu
Can I ask a fully sincere question? Do you support the death penalty? I ask because I do, and it's a position that the Left and I have never quite agreed on. Rehabilitation often seems like a fool's goal.
I think the death penalty is right for sadistic murderers, such as Chauvin. And it seems like the entire Left wants the mother fucker dead, and yet I never see anyone just support the death penalty. I don't get it, so I'd like to hear more perspectives.
beesleep
i think the death penalty is an easy-out. i'd like them to sit and think about it for decades and decades knowing they'll never go outside as a free person ever again. that seems much worse than sitting around a few years and 'later gators!' not to mention the death penalty costs more than imprisonment. and most the methods to carry out the sentence seem purposefully cruel and sadistic even if they claim otherwise. then the big one : maybe the conviction was *wrong*. then who is the murderer?
MisterBambu
All fair points I could raise my own beliefs against, but frankly I'm just happy to have what seems to be a genuine response. I shan't DebateLord against you.
Though, I ought to ask: provided that the Death Penalty was made to cost about as much as normal imprisonment, and provided you knew they were guilty beyond a shadow of the doubt (such as in this case), would you still prefer to just put them in a normal prison and hope they die by... running into a shiv?
beesleep
i don't think people should be shivved or raped in prison either. also not sure on the numbers of death row inmates that have been killed by other prisoners vs. the state but i bet it isn't a significant number. the assorted hypotheticals raised don't really matter since they are hypothetical and we are talking about real people in the real world.
beesleep
for instance. this makes killing of other death row inmates seem exceptionally rare : https://www.cbsnews.com/news/san-quentin-prison-california-one-condemned-inmate-kills-another-in-rare-death-row-slaying-2018-10-06/

If he was convicted why continue using "allegedly"? Seems like that doesn't fit anymore post conviction
Zalm
This is the kind of thing the media does to make people seem more like decent people. They lie. They manipulate words in such a way that people they want to cater towards are allowed to use them to present misinformation. Something like "allegedly convicted" is top notch misinformation propaganda. At any point in time, people can "forget" or "misunderstand" the term, and claim "allegedly" to outright lie. Then spread that lie. Then suddenly, a pedophile is not a pedophile to the magats.
JoshuaFalken
If someone presented this idea in a writing room for a TV drama, it would get dismissed as being too unbelievable.

Donald Trump was told to shut up. Again. How long do you think he'll last before the compulsion to shout his every thought to the world overcomes him?

He started attacking the Judge's wife after the order was reinstated, so not long at all.

Seriously? Off to Google I go, yet again.

What a fucking moron. I can kind of see where this will end.
Shaodyn
With him actually, physically gagged to prevent him from destroying the work his lawyers are trying to do?
StewedTomaters
Spending a little time in jail for political theater purposes, honestly. Violations = penalties, and judge isn't going to keep nickle-and-diming Trump with meaningless fines that he ignores
HashMaster9k
Depends on how much time he wants to spend in a jail cell for it. Pretty sure he's on Engoron's last nerve. And he's not one of Trump's constituency.
ClutteredDesk
I'm 85% sure he violated the order within minutes of returning to his residence.

It's like he pissed off a Greek god and got a really creative curse. "Your life will be just great as long as you keep your big fat mouth shut, but you won't be able to do it."

THANK YOU! Already sick to death of everyone and the media having the rapist male as a blurb or ignored completely but shouting from the rooftops about the hateful woman's consensual (she's not accused of anything by the victim) sex life. Defending or minimizing men's crimes as the status quo again.
Woahouch110
We all know that’s not the type of gay they have an issue with.
LaughingInTheFaceOfDanger
Bingo
beesleep
also kinda weird they don't seem to have nearly as big an issue with transmen it seems? maybe i have just missed it but seems the trans hate always seems to be with transwomen.
HomeRunWoman
Yeah, the rape accusation involves an actual crime being alleged, where the three-way relationship just shows them to be hypocritical assholes, and we always knew the latter.
Both are worth pointing out, but one is only a problem because of their positions on calling everyone else “deviants”, not because of the act itself.
Flobmmando
InkyBlinkyPinkyAndClyde
Also if her husband is a rapist, I don't see how that reflects on her. Unless something comes out that shows she knew and was ok with it.
HomeRunWoman
As of now, it appears that the fact that Bridget *wasn’t* present for one of the sexual encounters is part of the accusation (along with the alcohol et al)
“On the day of the alleged assault, the woman had initially agreed to meet because she thought Bridget Ziegler would be joining them. She canceled when she learned Bridget Ziegler wouldn’t be there, saying she had only agreed to the encounter because she wanted her there.”
“You didn’t bring her and then you did that to me,” she wrote.”

What is a throuple for God's sakes. Is it a new thing or just someone who wants to be cute and make a cute name.

I was in one 22 years ago so it ain't new.

Three + Couple = Throuple. It's not a new thing.

Well I'll be frank I didn't expect Santos to finally fly. Look at that, isn't it marvelous. Good work US, keep it going.
FairyKingOberon
The thing that kind of disappoints me is that the easiest GOP to expel are typically "outsider" to them anyway (gay, POC, etc) so while I'm happy there's one less liar it doesn't really impress me as much as it would if they ever managed to oust one of their Good Ol Boys.

He committed the only cardinal sin of being a republican. He fucked with their money.

I'm not in his former district but I'm next to it. Proud of my state for taking care of business there.
tkdtkd
I moved from the district just south into his district right before the election. I was disgusted that he won, and I absolutely love my old rep Grace Meng. She's super cool, always has time for you and takes the train like the rest of us. I run in to her on my way to work a few times a month. We need more people in government like her.

Absolutely. I'm in the 2nd, just sucked coming into a red majority district from where I lived in Brooklyn

Is he actually removed from Congress or is this just another "impeachment"?

They changed the locks on his office last night and took his name off the door. Gone.

I think the vote was to expel him. I would imagine a special election in his district needs to happen now.
