American, Your language is intemperate, as is the tone of your post. Isn't it time that both Republicans and Democrats got back to the time tested way of doing business to get things done for the people of this country? COMPROMISE
The Democratic Party is the party of death? Really? Do you know how ridiculous that sounds? The race card is all the Democrats have? It wasn't the Republicans that called for justice for the African Americans that were shot for jogging while Black. We have been the party of civil rights since the early 60s, and hopefully the Republicans will join us to make this country live up to its ideals. Why do you accuse the Democrats of c***ting and stealing? It was always clear to everybody that is not a Trumpist, that it was Trump that tried to steal the e******n, not the Democrats. Just ask the former Vice President, or many of the Republican conservatives that have managed to retain their honor and integrity in the Trump era.
Haven't you had enough of the culture wars, and political hatred for those that have committed the terrible sin of disagreeing with the far right and/or Trump? I know I have, and coming together is the only way to save the republic and its constitution!

Multiple charges against trump are a huge mistake, republicans have proved over and over that the weakest and hardest to prove charge will be picked apart with stupid defenses that only they could even try, and the weakest charge will be looked as as a lie...so all the others will be lumped into the same acquittal.

One of the consulting prosecutors involved in analysis is recommending using one obvious and easy to prove criminal violation that has serious consequences, and go full tilt on a crime that was done in full view, that has absolutely no defense i***tic or otherwise....one that he either did this or he didn't that no jury no matter how biased could ever say no he did not do this.

And here is the beauty, if it fails roll out another...he already is going to be hammered by a civil case that has one type of defense that implicates him in a federal case.

Trump has indictments coming, that is 100%, and he will not be running for president with an open indictment, so there goes his usual delay tactics...

...besides, his ship is sinking, the GOP is going to jump the good ship trumpy...Pence just torpedoed him with a fatal broadside.

Just one example of 19 Red States looking to subvert our democratic process of E******ns.

It has been called a textbook example of discrimination against Black v**ers in the US. And a ruling on it from the supreme court is expected any day.

It isn’t the kind of explicit v****g discrimination, like poll taxes and literacy tests, that kept v**ers from the polls in the south during the Jim Crow era. Instead, it is more subtle.

Let us walk you through the case with our visual explainer.

The case focuses on Alabama, where the Republican-controlled legislature, like states across the US, recently completed the once-a-decade process of redrawing the boundaries of congressional maps. If partisan politicians exert too much control over the redistricting process, they can effectively engineer their own victories, or blunt the advantages of the other side, by allocating v**ers of particular political persuasions and backgrounds to particular districts.

Under the new districts, Black people make up 25% of the Alabama’s population, but comprise a majority in just one of the state’s seven districts.

In late January, a panel of three federal judges issued a 225-page opinion explaining how the state was discriminating against Black v**ers.

“Black v**ers have less opportunity than other Alabamians to elect candidates of their choice to Congress,” the panel wrote. The judges gave Alabama 14 days to come up with a new plan and said the state had to draw two districts where Black v**ers comprise a majority.

Now Alabama is asking the US supreme court to step in and block it from having to redraw its congressional districts. In a brief to the supreme court, lawyers for Alabama argued that by creating two majority-Black districts, they would be prioritizing race over other the state’s traditional redistricting criteria such as keeping communities whole and keeping districts as compact as possible.

The plaintiffs in the case dispute that. In their own brief to the supreme court, they noted that several of their sample maps comply with Alabama’s redistricting criteria – some even more so than the map the state enacted. It is possible to simultaneously have two Black districts and observe these criteria, they say.

There is also an element of common sense involved, say plaintiffs, who point to the fact that the Black belt – named for its rich topsoil – has been an area with a high concentration of Black people for hundreds of years. “You have the Black belt … In Alabama it is such a well-known and unique feature of the state. Everyone knows that’s where Black folks live and have lived for 200 years and are still concentrated,” said Deuel Ross, an attorney at the NAACP Legal Defense and Educational Fund who is representing some of the plaintiffs in the case. “This is a community that has been together.”

The supreme court ruling could have big consequences for section 2 of the V****g Rights Act (VRA), a crucial part of the landmark 1965 law that prohibits any v****g practice that discriminates on the basis of race, and which is commonly used to bring challenges like the one in Alabama. If the justices side with Alabama, it would probably make it very difficult to bring similar future challenges under section 2.

Michael Li, a redistricting expert at the Brennan Center for Justice, said Alabama was taking a “swing for the fences” argument to try to take down a “major part of the edifice of the V****g Rights Act”.

“It’s really a very aggressive stand,” he said. “What Alabama really is saying is the VRA has to be subordinate to the state’s neutral criteria. And if you can’t draw a VRA district while complying with the state’s neutral criteria, there’s no liability, which would be a big change.

More smoke and mirrors.
We should postpone the next e******n until we can come to an agreement about the Last E******n.
We postpone it until we have agreed capitulation from the right.
No whiney baby bullchit.
You lose , you pick up your chit and go .
Not another word about it was unfair ,
Waah , waah , waah , !!!!!!
If youz can’t agree to help this country move forward , you’ll be boat people with no country. That isn’t as bad as it sounds , youz don’t have a country now. One where you are likely to live. Only one you need to complain about every waking moment.
So, being boat people won’t be such a far reach from where youz are now.
If you can’t live here and Learn to govern yourselves. You can go where you won’t need to. Some dictator will do it for you.

Perhaps , the United State of MaraLago !

I'm sick and tired of right wing lies about Biden. So far he has done a great job, especially in foreign affairs. He just had a successful operation in k*****g the leader of ISIS. He gave a real strong message about the cost of invading Ukraine. He is threatening severe sanctions against Russia in response to an invasion of the Ukraine, and shown himself a strong advocate of NATO by sending troops to those NATO countries bordering Russia. I don't know what else he could do short of going to war against Russia, and nobody wants that.
In domestic affairs, I think he has a great program in the build It Back Better bill. He just doesn't seem to have the v**es to get it past in Congress. Inflation is the big problem, not only in this country but all over the world. His ability to solve this problem is extremely limited. I'm told that the big problem is lack of chips for computers and automobiles is the major problem. It sends negative vibes all across the economy. I'm sure there are other problems as well. Some Republicans refuse to get anything introduced by Democrats passed, because Trump and others don't want to do anything that makes Democrats look good.
Trump is still making noises like the dictator wannabe he is. He's advocating giving pardons to all those that are guilty of actually invading desecrating the building itself, threatening, assaulting and murdering Capitol cops, and calling for the murder of leaders of Congress including the Speaker of the House and the VP. So much for accountability under the law. I believe that he will be indicted for at least charges related to s******n.
He still supports the big lie that he had the e******n s****n from him. That means he has no sense of remorse, which if he is found guilty by a fair trial, he will not even be considered for some kind of pardon.
