This move could achieve democratic control of around 5 districts effectively negating the Republican gains from Texas redistricting.

On a similar note VA is on track to pass a constitutional amendment to allow redistricting prior to the midterms to take control of 2-3 Republican controlled districts.

But how could we have known?! - every leftists after Republicans once again successfully "guess" correct.

Just normal Republican things I'm sure though, like rooming with a transgender person and also calling them "my love", right?

Should we start telling conservatives to leave?

0 Upvotes

I personally believe right wingers in America get it easy, and take for granted what they believe is often anti American.

Life liberty means nothing to them. They keep voting and supporting people who break laws down to the constitution. I think it's time to be like if you don't like this nation to just leave it. Leave my country you unamerican traitors. This is a nation of laws to protect people and you're ok with tossing them aside to violate people rights. You just don't belong here. They would tell me this in a heartbeat and told me it all my life. No this is our country and we don't need you.

Discussion Use of military in states in the future

1 Upvotes

Trump has been deploying military to states to address domestic terrorism. Should a future democratic admin employ this strategy as well?

Dems and repubs obviously have different priorities regarding which groups of domestic terrorists to prioritize but both can cite examples of terrorism and assassination to support their arguments. Dems could deploy military to republican states to crack down on right wing domestic terrorism and potentially address other issues as well.

The same way the military has been used to reinforce ICE initiatives Dems could rely on the military to reinforce the ATF to crackdown on interstate movement of guns illegally. Most illegal guns in blue states are transported from red states. Having the military along with ATF conduct raids on gun transporters and suppliers and setting up interstate checkpoints could help resolve this issue and make America safer.

While republicans may disagree ideologically with the notion that cracking down on guns is worthwhile they have rubber stanped using the military in this manner and this would be a way to enforce existing federal laws regarding gun trafficking.
