The last time there was a filibuster proof senate was in 1977.

The last time a party held a 60-vote filibuster-proof supermajority in the Senate was for a brief period between 2009 and 2010 during the 111th Congress, when Democrats reached 60 votes following the seating of Al Franken, though this only lasted for a few months

A few months. Big deal. Congress can't scratch its collective ass in a few months.

I lump AOC, IO, and RT together. The squad. RT wore a ‘Fuck ICE’ button last night to the SoU speech. When the next ICE officer is attacked by a deranged leftie, you think those three won’t be cheering? They are traitors, plain and simple.

I’ve often said I was embarrassed when we elected Trump as President 10 years ago. Not as embarrassed as having those 3 in our House of Representatives. Add anti-Semite Mamdani to the vat and adds easily to my ‘why I hate the Democrats’ list.

Who "disrespects" America and the ideals and concepts it stands for more: those three or the fat oaf?

You see, the argument can cut either way.

Bottom line: we are in dysfunctional times with no clear end in sight.

Earth is about 4.5 billion years old. Our creator influenced nature to make humans exist same as any other species. What that has to go with the subject I have no idea. You dismiss science so I am not sure why you ask.


Because you are obsessed with "science" and "biology" , but deny evolution.... You can't deny evolution and then claim to be an expert on biological gender.

The far left has always felt this way, just for some reason since Trump they do not hide it anymore. Did you see any of the "alternative SOTU" rallies the left had? Some were really bizarre. While Trump congratulated the USA men's hockey team they had some guy in an animal outfit bragging about all the anti-ICE rallies he got arrested at.

I have high standards. I essentially have left the GOP. I just think the Democrat Party is worse, and more of a long term danger to our country than Donald. He’ll be gone in 3 years and hopefully we can have a ‘regular’ Republican in charge. I’m not hopeful.
