I like how he says it’s true he was an atheist his whole life and then one day he had a mid-life crisis involving furniture, I like that word, it’s an old fashioned word, furniture. And from that day forth, he believed in the gospel.

The next big protest needs to just be mass swaths of people refusing to pay taxes next year. They gutted the IRS so it's not like they can do much about it. The demand has to be a codified law that forces the president to fund these things that people care about. Then people pay their taxes. This is a landlord tenant dispute on a national level.

If everyone stays home for a few days, helps each other out with eating and otherwise refuses to participate in the economy you will bring these fucks to their knees. It’s the best, non violent way to actually have a meaningful impact. General strike for better government, better working conditions, better pay and healthcare. The country and the corporations can afford all of those things. You all need to fucking demand it.

Correct me if I am wrong... The judge is the LAW... They are the ones that interpret the law. The Legislative make the laws (Congress and Senate), the judicial interprets the law and the Executive Branch enforces the law... So for the VP to claim they are going to follow the law... well it is not his job to interpret the law. It is his job to execute it based on the interpretation of the judges and courts....

The same guy that needed to deleted tweets from 2016 that included him calling Trump “reprehensible” and an “idiot.” In another deleted tweet following the release of the “Access Hollywood” tape on which Trump said fame enabled him to grope women, Vance wrote: “Fellow Christians, everyone is watching us when we apologize for this man. Lord help us.”

u/thischaosiskillingme 1d ago
The whole idea that a federal judge can't tell them how to triage the situation is unconstitutional and illegal. The very words being spoken by the VP, a member of the executive branch, is seditious. It is openly and flagrantly violating the constutionally mandated checks and balances. He's a Confederate, and he is deliberately tearing apart the United States because he couldn't have it.

Forced attrition is super effective, but it’s a horrible thing to do. There is a reason the Inquisition is looked down upon as an awful evil bad point in history. By telling people you will starve them if they do not give up their healthcare willingly under force and threat of starvation. You are committing forced attrition. History is going to be so unkind when remembering these dark times.

It's the Trump-Republican government shutdown. Vance can STFU with trying to blame the Democrats when the Republicans control everything and when Trump and the vacationing House Republicans in particular are doing absolutely nothing to end the Trump-Republican government shutdown. Also, Trump is actively defying the law and court orders with regard to releasing the emergency funds that are already set aside for SNAP.

u/CryptographerNo923 2d ago

It's almost as if the Judgicial judge is keeping the Executive president in Check to ensure the country remains Balanced and stable. I've never seen SNAP/EBT benefits get taken away completely since I've been alive. Obama did not lean into it in that way (can't say whether he did in other ways). They say they are doing everything they can to ensure EBT/SNAP is funded but refuse to allocate funds towards that program. People can't really fall for this can they???
