I hope you're right but I won't hold my breath

And when there is money it's often earmarked in ways that severely restrict its use for, e.g., paying for software

Does viable have a different definition for you that doesn't include winning roughly half of elections?

What's the difference between MTG and, say, any of the other Republicans that vote pretty much in kock-step with her on any important issue but aren't as blatantly loud and dumb except worse news bites?

If you read it Biden's appointed 214 so far, if he gets all 244 then he's appointed more than Trump. Clearly this isn't a sudden rush, it's a final push to fix and protect as much as possible as he's been doing for 4 years

Oh please let Trump's first dictatorial move be to strip Elon of his wealth. We're all going to suffer some shit but let at least one oligarch stuffer too

To be fair there are a ton of the gravy seals, but you're absolutely right that there is also smaller but much, much more dangerous core

Absolutely agree with you but as xmunk said, Sinema will do her dumb curtsy thing and bam, now trump gets another supreme court pick on day 1 because the Dems really only have 49 seats for preserving democracy

This is from 2018, when Trump was in charge.

Sorry, deleted my comment because I realized the bands I was thinking of weren't really punk necessarily, though they are counterculture. I really like Speedy Ortiz--they've toured with some big names like Liz Phair, and recently did a Tiny Desk concert. A few months ago i saw them live and a band called Suzie True opened, which is a little introspective about problems still but I think has a ton of potential to write some banger callout /protest songs and I've really enjoy listening to them.
