You’ve effectively created a king. Good job, party of small government!

Instead of laughing about “owning the libs” can you explain how this is a good thing for the country?

Remember when the presidency was not above the law? Good times. Thanks GOP!

Awesome. Biden should use this authority to send the army after his political enemies. too bad, American democracy was pretty cool. A shame that we threw it away for Donald Trump.

Sure, that’s the problem. Other countries don’t have issues with land acquisition, so we need a better system of buying land for rights of way. It’s absurd that Japan can built a rail line in 7 years while it takes us 15 years for just the environmental work!

McCarthyism is alive and well. I agree that France needs a better job integrating immigrants. Different institutions.

I don’t want another transcontinental railroad, I want regional high-speed rail. Texas is doing it, as is California, and New England is exploring it as well. The only reason in America why it takes so long is because of the inane amount of environmental paperwork and study that has to be done.

Why? What would the point of that be?

Are you telling me right wingers never riot in the wake of a political loss? Because I have a couple examples.

Beats me, we’ll see after round 2.

Funny you mention them since the far left won the second biggest chunk of French parliament in the first round

I love nuclear and am all for easing regulations that will make it easier to open new nuclear plants. Better ways than cars include proper rail infrastructure and public transit. It’s greener and a more efficient use of land than sprawling parking lots. It’s also safer for pedestrians.

I see France is in the “far right wing reactionary” part of the political cycle

Did I advocate for rape? If you drop the soap, it gets hair and scum all over it and that’s not sanitary. Just looking out for Steve’s well-being that’s all.

I mean, yeah there are freak ecoterrorists out there who would prefer half the human race go extinct. I just want more efficient green infrastructure and better ways of transportation than cars.

Yeah that’s totally a comparable situation I’m still trying to figure out the end goal of government locking people into specific areas, like what would the point be? What is the end goal of this conspiracy?

There is zero reason to suspect this. “Aah! Grocery store down the street! Scary!”

James here doesn’t understand the concept of “walking places” and apparently has weak legs. See how the GOP takes a concept that’s actually a RETURN to what American cities used to be and decides it’s communism? It’s amazing how y’all get out of bed in the morning.

You dismiss this yet cower in fear at the “15 minute city” concept, odd!

Of course, they're not going to come right out and campaign on taking away the civil liberties of millions. They'll run on vague notions of "liberty" and "small government" and then bring out the policy agendas.

Democrats need to hammer this in their messaging. This is some sick, vile stuff the GOP proposes.

Poor guy obviously needs serious help.

Man, I wish I was getting paid for this You know who I was thinking of? Susan Rice. I know she's never held an elected office, but rumors are she was Biden's VP pick before the DNC went with Harris. She's a non-politician but has had an active role in government, seems pretty moderate, and could win the women vote. She's clearly intelligent as a former Brookings Fellow and former UN ambassador.

Cant think of any other president who has done that, boy howdy
