The people who are working for this actual takeover of the American government have been working on it for decades. They out-maneuvered us by taking over town, city and state officials first (and continue to do so), so they could control and manipulate elections. Then they used that to get their preferred judges in place, all the way to the Supreme Court. We have few options left to stop it, and not much time. :(
So did the Republicans just yield all 3 divisions in government to the Democrats over night? Or...OR...are the MAGAs finally declaring that their definition of "true charge of the government" is actually dictatorship? Anybody believing this utter crapage qualifies for disability programs...which were all axed in the US so that the top 1% can get a tax break they won't even notice. What a shithole the US has become...Love, Canada.
Hey, @op , use this next time. SNAP has $5 BILLION set aside that can be used during the shutdown. The idiots in charge are just refusing to use it, so they can blame D.
So, if I heard him right, the Speaker of the House of Representatives is saying Republicans have given the control of the House, Senate, and Presidency back to Democrats.
I wonder when Trump moves out and Harris can start moving to White House...
Presidementia & his biggest donors are in charge. They've repeatedly shown that the only thing they'll ever do with power is abuse it. This is the disaster-in-chief's 4th shutdown.
How stupid do Americans have to be in order for a party in rule to say something that made every single person in the world just a little less intelligent.
It's the R's long game of cutting education and keeping wages low so people can't understand how the gov't works and don't have time for anything but little sound bites of complete lies. I bet half the country couldn't name the 3 branches of government, much less who is in control of each.
This is exactly what’s happening. They couldn’t do it without help and that’s where Fox, Newsmax and RSBN come in, fire hosing propaganda to undereducated citizens.
Not entirely, the courts do still have a little bit of life left in them. As can be seen by all the court rulings against them. And the state level is still an active resistance against it all.
No they aren't, that's why they're blaming the democrats. So everyone in those SNAP states thinks "Oh, the dems did this. Damn liberals" and stays loyal to the party.
so the scene happened but it was homelander daydreaming while the crowd was yelling and booing at him. now saying that he has factually lazered a single guy in a crowd of his supporters so it may get to the crowd lazering sooner or later

GOP has been gavelling the House open, saying the pledge, then closing it so no business can be conducted for a month.

" the Dems won't let us shoot ourselves in the foot because it'll hurt Americans also, so this is their fault"

Worse, there's money set aside for SNAP during a shutdown, they're choosing to not use it. They don't even need to open government.

They suspended the 60 vote rule so they could ran through confirming 100 Trump henchmen, but conveniently forgot to reopen the government.

Bold-faced lies that will be the direct cause of death for many Americans. How are these people not in prison yet for murder?
DaisyfromDownunder
Correction. There is only one branch of government in this Dicktatorship.

An awful lot of GOP welfare states need SNAP. MAGA are shooting themselves in their faces.

If only there was a benevolent superhero to fix this.

They’d claim he’s obviously an undocumented immigrant and try to deport him

Yeah, the Punisher.

The benevolent superhero would just fucking yeet the ones repsonsible into space, if they were really benevolent.

He wouldn't be able to help, he wouldn't understand what is happeneing in the first place.

TBF, he'd have more of a clue than your average Trump voter...

He'd likely get confused by the fact that they don't have a parliament.
