The provision previously enjoyed bipartisan backing but steadily lost Democratic support in the aftermath of Trump’s election earlier this month.
Dems were fine with it until it was likely to be used in the exact way it was intended.
Sounds familiar.
It's on the tip of my tongue. PARROT Act? PATRAT Act? PATIO RIOT Act?
Patio Riot new band name called it
How soon before NPR and PBS are “terrorist” organizations? I wish I was joking.
They'll brand the DSA and socialists like Hasan as terrorists first. Then once they have purged the country of leftist leadership and leftist organizations then they will come for left leaning groups like NPR if and only if NPR refuses to bend the knee.
Morning Joe from MSNBC has already bent the knee. More will follow once Trump makes an example out of his critics.
Not like morning Joe was ever anything close to the left
Hasan is already a terrorist sympathizer, he'll be called a terrorist and then suddenly agree with his critics that he isn't really involved in politics lol
1st target? Planned Parenthood.
Maybe hasn't updated yet (still shows vote failed) but here's the roll call from the first vote: https://clerk.house.gov/Votes/2024458
Wow look at that neck flap.
Time for all nonprofits to reform as churches.
Like I said...Schumer will send this bill to Never Neverland. They'll have to do it again next Congress.
Keeping your eye on the ball...suppose Schumer did bring the House bill to the floor. Suppose also, that by some quirk it passed. How long do you think it would take Biden to Veto it? I'd say 30 seconds max.
You really think Biden will step in to protect the rights of people protesting Israel's genocide of Palestinians, the one he has been facilitating for more than a year? Biden who takes significant amounts of money from pro-Israel organizations and has consistently sent Israel weapons throughout its attack on Gaza? Trump and Biden are pretty much aligned when it comes to supporting the genocide and wanting to silence the protestors, although their methods may differ.
Biden is on the downward side of his last job and will do no favors for his replacement.
Then why did Biden pledge his full support to Trump?
For transition not Presidemcy. But you knew that
This is such a hilariously fantastic view of who Biden is. Like with pretending that abusing people with Blue MAGA rhetoric was going to win an election, you do elicit this choice at all of our peril.
Biden isn't on your side. Neither are the Democrats.
Biden isn't on your side. Neither are the Democrats.
They could be. If we take a deep breath and collectively decide to tell the collective political establishment as it stands to fuck off, we CAN make change. On a side note: This is also how you fight fascism.
