Wasn't the late 1980s reagan era, when he decided to promote the trickle down effect, went really really well, Oh you know if the rich gets the taxed reduce, the money they paid for tax might go trickle down the company towards you. Went really well, the rich just hoarded it.

This was also a time when the october surprise may have occurred as well, when republicans may have caused iran to delay releasing the hostages just so, the winner of inauguration could be the person could be held as the person who released them.

You also had reagan with his impeachable iran-contra affair, american dad ollie north song gives a brief summary of what he did and why it was quite bad. You also had America coming off an era when the CIA experimented on people for mind control by giving them LSD, and then moved on to other drugs.

Itching, he wants to invoke it, using specifically the insurrection act of 1807, tomorrow they may push it earlier then 90 days since it was always part of project 2025 and also due the senate most likely passing a bill to limit his power for tariff by needing approval from them to be used, so they enact it just a bit earlier to make sure national emergency still exist. Don't be surprised if it is invoked as this was always planned as part of project 2025.

also call it Johnson Shutdown, that is what he clearly is doing when he stopped all procedures for a week in the house. Which I must say is a crucial part of the legislative branch and he efficiently shutdown the government for a week. Anytime this happens again which it will, due to the senate tariff bill heading to the house and if it is brought to the floor by a measure to discharge from committee and passes, he'll clearly do it again. So let give it a name to blame Mike Johnson for shutting down the government and call it Johnson Shutdown.

Thanks, I did not notice that mistake.

 

Cory Booker at the moment filibustering at the senate as a protest against the whole trump administration . He is speaking for as long as he is physically able too, as stated by him in the CSPAN clip, https://www.c-span.org/clip/us-senate/sen-cory-booker-d-nj-starts-speaking-in-senate-for-as-long-as-i-am-physically-able/5158775

Here is an article that states why he is on the senate floor if you need clarification https://www.cnn.com/2025/03/31/politics/booker-senate-floor-speech-trump-protest/index.html

No distractions, the second answer is not correct, he wants another glided age. The glided age is another term for the second industrial revolution that turned america into the superpower we know today, but It also was an awful era for your average american.They would work 12 hours or more for a whole week, some may have sunday off due to church but a lot did work that day with all your family working. The standard of living was so crap, many would become alcoholics due to the awful conditions, which would lead to prohibition movement. Your average american did not live long, many people would die due to work place accidents but due to no worker protection, nothing would change.

The era was also known for the monopolies, starting with rockfeller standard oil, carnegie steel company and morgans banking with many others. All the major monopolies worked together to prevent competition by buying out, they would ask nicely to sell your company to them, if not they would play the waiting game by lowering the product your selling to be unprofitable and then buy you out. Regulations did not exist yet so, this was all legal and if it wasn't, no one gave a shit as they were that powerful. The government was no help to them either, as most of them were bathing in the money of the 1%. The 1% lived in amazing conditions, and hoarded a ton of money, with some becoming important philanthropist.

Here is an article of proof of what trump wants, https://apnews.com/article/trump-tariffs-gilded-age-mckinley-grover-cleveland-1592dab80ad7159266db51b5baa774b6.

No, your violating the advocating violence rule. We do not want anyone to advocate violence, and that line is always linked to terrorists.

I hope the state supreme court allows them to keep their right to a jury trial. It clearly states in our 7th amendment it is preserved for any case above $20 and that it will always be upheld. There is no alternative in the wording, it is so clearly written and if it is ignored I want to see all the judges bank account and donations because the constitution for jury trials are clearly written and cannot be told in any other way.

The capacitor plague era, ever wonder why we don't see a lot of PC's in the early 2000s, this is why as everything with a cap would fail and kill the boards, essentially having to call on the oem to fix it.

Sugar is the reason for the rise of heart disease that was happening in US. John Yudkin was the one to purpose that sugar was dangerous for our bodies and heart plus responsible for obesity but he couldn't prove it and was criticized by his scientist who were paid by the sugar industry. I forget to state the sugar industry was funding scientist to blame it all on fat. It was a pseudoscience till the 70s and 80s when they found the correlation that Yudkin was missing.

Julius Caesar declaring himself an emperor, the celebration and seeing the man that essentially turned rome from a powerful republic to the most powerful empire with a military that dominated majority of europe.

 
 

Let's welcome the new moderators of c/politics.

 

This was long overdue, and I should have made it per day when the supreme court did these cases. But oh well, it's all under one megathread. This will be active for a couple of days.
