  1. If only 144,000 people get to heaven why would you knock on so many doors recruiting people who could take your spot!
  2. There’s no point in discussing political party here. Plus the OP is mixing up Catholics for Evangelicals. There’s actual real data on this:
  3. Filibusters are not part of the Constitution. Mitch did the nuclear option on the Supreme Court, no one else.
  4. https://www.nbcnews.com/politics/congress/biden-senate-mull-changing-filibuster-ahead-debt-ceiling-vote-n1280913 McConnell says he will not block a vote on the debt ceiling. McConnell is a bit not truthful in how he discusses this. He wants a limit raised by Dems. If he ends the filibuster in any debt fueling bill, then that bill can be passed solely by Dems. So McConnell using the filibuster is the only thing ever holding this bill up. McConnell could just end a filibuster and the Dems would happily pass the bill without Republican support.
  5. It’s an argument of net vs gross. The tax plan to pay for the bill could net it to $0. Lets contrast this to TCJA, which was also a reconciliation bill. That was a $1.5 trillion dollar hand out to wealthy Americans without any netting component. Hell, Republicans were even lets handout money to Corporations over people so they made all the Corp tax cuts permanent and all the individual tax cuts expire in 2026.
  6. There is no acceptable death count but minimizing the amount of deaths is the best we can do. Im not making any absurd comparisons. If the death rate is 0.5 percent, that’s many millions dead if you don’t do anything.
  7. You spit out this 99 percent. Apply it to real life numbers. You’re saying it’s ok for 1 percent of the world population to die. You’re saying it’s okay for millions of people to die. You down play it by saying it’s 0.5 percent. But that’s millions of millions of people.
  8. It’s not satire. It’s math.
  9. Because the world went into preventative measures everyone in the world didn’t catch COVID. Had we just let it run its course, at a 0.5 percent death rate we would have killed 37.5 million people.
  10. Whats 0.5 percent of 7.5 billion?
  11. The reason you’re sharing this and the reason this is an issue is dumb. Its not political. It shouldn’t be political. One side issue saying listen to your doctor. Listen to science. The other other side is saying drrrrrrrr. So this isn’t political. Listen to your doctor, listen to science. If you want to make it political listen to those in the right.
  12. While I agree, I think there is a difference between just saying something and a belief. Lets take this quote for example: say: “If it’s a legitimate rape, the female body has ways to try to shut that whole thing down.” So he said it, it’s dumb, we all know it’s dumb. But what if that’s his belief? What if he thinks the female body can’t get pregnant during rape. Well if that’s his belief, then when he’s writing or voting on legislation, he probably wouldn’t support exceptions for rape. Not from a policy or moral stand point but because he can’t pass 4th grade science. That’s a quote from the article.
  13. The information I shared were just Republican quotes in the issue. Don’t you think it’s important to understand what the people who are writing these laws think about the issue? Did a Republican say: Watch a sonogram of a 15-week baby . . . If they’re a male baby, they may have their hand between their legs. If they feel pleasure, why is it so hard to believe that they could feel pain? Did a Republican say: . “If it’s a legitimate rape, the female body has ways to try to shut that whole thing down.” The answer yes. So the information isn’t garbage, they’re factually true and relevant to the topic at hand.
  14. You can’t chose skin color but you can chose to be unvaxxed. Idiotic comparison.
  15. Call me A-Man, I just posted an article that others may not have seen that could be an interesting point. Id be glad if you read the article and commented on it specifically!!!
  16. Im not providing an opinion but just giving articles some on the other side may not read, just call me A-Man.
  17. What stats point to excess liquidity? Thinking basic Econ supply and demand, we have a massive strain on supply. Global supply is hurt. Decrease in supply with same demand will push prices up. And this isn’t a US problem. It’s a global problem right now. From a labor standpoint, we need a thread on the Great Resignation. In my opinion, there will not be a great economic impact in our generation than the Great Resignation.
  18. Fake news Lets not forget the people passing these laws are doing it because fetuses masterbate : https://www.cosmopolitan.com/entertainment/celebs/news/g3309/stupid-things-politicians-say/ "Watch a sonogram of a 15-week baby, and they have movements that are purposeful. They stroke their face. If they're a male baby, they may have their hand between their legs. If they feel pleasure, why is it so hard to believe that they could feel pain?" — current Republican Rep. Michael Burgess, arguing that male babies ***** in utero. People passing these laws think if you’re raped you can’t get pregnant: 2. “If it’s a legitimate rape, the female body has ways to try to shut that whole thing down.”
  19. They needed those to protect themselves. Don’t post this crap without context. We need to remember they’re super snowflakes that are scared of their shadows. They just needed those because after seeing how cops treat people that aren’t white, they feared for themselves, not because they wanted to overthrow any government. 658 people charged so far I believe. Why arrest them on the spot when they’re dumb enough to post themselves breaking the law on social media. Like just imagine it’s Oceans 658 and instead of them trying to get away with something they’re just like yea look at social media and arrest me.
  20. https://www.cosmopolitan.com/entertainment/celebs/news/g3309/stupid-things-politicians-say/ "Watch a sonogram of a 15-week baby, and they have movements that are purposeful. They stroke their face. If they're a male baby, they may have their hand between their legs. If they feel pleasure, why is it so hard to believe that they could feel pain?" — current Republican Rep. Michael Burgess, arguing that male babies ***** in utero. "Understand though, that when we talk about exceptions, we talk about rape, *****, health of a woman, life of a woman. Life of the woman is not an exception." — former Illinois congressman Joe Walsh Reminder: the title of the thread is accurate
  21. https://thedailyedge.substack.com/p/gop-gang-of-pedophiles The list of Republican and Trump-connected child rapists, sex traffickers, pedophile enablers and child porn offenders keeps growing
  22. You missed reading my post: 2. “If it’s a legitimate rape, the female body has ways to try to shut that whole thing down.” A guy thought hey if you get raped the body just stops you from getting pregnant.
  23. Just call me A-Man just posting an article without any context or insight other than thinking maybe some of the posters here may not have saw it.
  24. https://www.rollingstone.com/politics/politics-news/the-10-dumbest-things-ever-said-about-abortion-and-womens-rights-195166/ 2. “If it’s a legitimate rape, the female body has ways to try to shut that whole thing down.” 3. Who needs abortion when victims of sexual assault can just get “cleaned out” by a rape kit? 4. Women shouldn’t terminate pregnancies resulting from rape because it’s what God intended. 9. Ban abortions because of ***** fetuses.
