    • On tax cuts for the wealthy
    • On race
    • On LGBTQ issues
    • On climate change
    • On unions
    • On the environment

    The right played the long game so well to end Roe and then immediately blew it by validating every terrifying prediction pro-choice folks had made about what would happen without it. Three generations of voters now view reproduction rights as a core issue for the first time because of these jackasses. I hope it burns them for many elections to come.

        the dog hit the side of the car and is currently underneath the car, how much it gets banged up underneath is to be seen. could end up roadkill but could miraculously come out mostly fine, hopefully not.

    Nonsense. If there’s one thing we’ve learned from Republicans about Republicans, it’s that there’s no such thing as being Republican enough.

    they don’t give a shit about the people this will affect; they’re just abusing a wedge issue to win elections. it’s all about manipulation and power.

      Which isn’t working anymore, hence the pivot from Hannity. We have only hope for the good of the country and the world they lose a lot more in the future

          And that person is still telling everyone to do the opposite of what you suggest. So go tell them this exact thing too.

          I don’t think it is wrong for people seeing that they were in the wrong: so long as they are taking the steps to acknowledge they were part of that problem.

          Though, in reality, Hannity just sees the monster they just woke up. These results will be a pretty good indication of what the presidential election will be like.

          57% of a state is a severe disadvantage at the best of times, when you don’t have a candidate with 2 indictments against him for election fraud and 1 for rape.

            I would agree, but that’s not what’s happening here.

            The problem with Hannity, with Carlson and with so many other conservative pundits, is that while they wave the American flag and claim to pledge allegiance to it, their actions see them put American Conservatism over America itself. And they do this consistently.

            Hannity is addressing a smaller, much more localised symptom to avoid addressing the real problem: that American Conservatism isn’t reflecting the will of the people and subjugates more people to unnecessary suffering than it helps, by a long shot.

            American Conservatism needs a complete fucking overhaul, not some piecemeal we-need-to-lighten-up speech.
