    Shove some judges through, try to keep a bipartisan coalition together to support Ukraine's military and humanitarian needs, and beyond that, mostly ignore the 'performance art' going on in the House investigations and do what we can to hold the GOP accountable for the fact nothing else can be done, with a RW radical MAGA controlled or choatic House. I am a believer in realistic goals.

    Its going to be fun comparing McCarthy's actual successes with his 'razor thin' majority with what Pelosi got done with hers!

    President Joe just keeps on keeping on. The far right will continue to insult and slander him, while the rest of the country stays aware of the great job he's doing, in spite of world wide economic problems his policies are helping America and AmeriCANs get through. AND, as we saw in the mid-terms, AmeriCANs aren't fooled and appreciate him bringing hard work and dignity back to the Presidency. 8)

    Higher priced gas and food is a free-market capitalist agenda not a capitalist agenda. Note: Trump is a capitalist not a free-market capitalist.

    You socialists (hey Ram, I always pegged you for a neocon), at least, who hate capitalism should know the difference...(but you don't 'cause you hate capitalism of any kind).

    actually neither neocon (i am anti war) nor socialist (i am critical of monopolistic state sponsored capitalism.) but describe myself as a bull moose progressive. i support labor, consumers, and the environment.

    There's nothing they can do now.

    It'll have to wait til a pub gets elected, then everything they do now will be what fixed it later.

    No there is no majority control. What we have is gridlock which protects us from partisan legislation. The Biden agenda is dead for at least two years.

    Freedom of what? So you believe that greater weight of government, more regulation by government, and restrictions of our constitutionally protected rights is "freedom"? Hmm... I think you don't know what that word means.

    Don't forget the cost of heating your dwelling.
    Doesn't it seem Biden's goal is to bring the country to its knees?

    How exactly are bans on marijuana and prostitution not restrictions on rights? How is that "freedom"?

    You're right to what? Self harm? Engage in human trafficking? You seem to really not understand this whole "freedom" thing....

    Truly. As well as funneling endless amounts of US aid to those in the Ukraine that were laundering the money back to the Democrats... now that's going to be a circus...

    You seem to be talking out of both sides of your mouth here. Do you want a nanny state that prevents self harm by stopping you from smoking a plant, and telling you that you can't sell sex (unless you film it?)? Do you want big government set up to restrict these liberties or small government that stays out of your life?

    I had not heard that conspiracy theory. Is it catching on? I wrote a post yesterday asking where do Repubs go as Trumpery begins to fade. Your post suggests the path forward is to ramp up the batshyte Crazy machine.

    Hmm... Do you often deny science? Weren't you one of the lockdown and prosecute folks? And now you're here telling us that government doesn't have a cause to keep illicit drugs from addling the population? More, if you don't realize that prostitution involves human trafficking, sorry, you just can't be serious about it. Wishing it away isn't going to work.

    Tell me though, how do either establish a "big government" presence? It sure doesn't appear that it would. More, since when are either of these activities considered "liberties"? Permissive self abuse, perhaps, but "liberties"?

    The collapse of the FTX seems to have uncovered some interesting traffic. Do try to keep up to the news. I know you don't actually try, but you have the internet. Get educated... So, Biden sends billions of the Ukraine, and the FTX folks were laundering it back to democrats... what a mess... I suppose this is what we get for not stopping the Biden crime gang sooner.... All that wealth destroyed...

    No.

    You are dodging what I asked you. You are for preventing people from smoking a plant, and can't recognize that restricts their freedom to do so? Restricting this freedom could be argued as good to do, but it's still restricting freedom.

    Agriculture and Textiles also involves human trafficking. Should we ban those industries too? Or should we instead clamp down in the human trafficking and leave consenting adults alone?

    How could it not, if these bans are enforced? Enforcement means government, does it not? Or are you suggesting these things be illegal but zero enforcement?

    Liberty. Freedom to do what you want without somebody else forcing you what to do. How do you define freedom?

    Honestly, I don't think you understand what freedom is then. Your argument seems to entirely ignore the social contract. Your world is one of chaos then. Ultimate freedom. So, you should be able to kill whomever you choose? Because: freedom? That is essentially your argument.

    They are? You didn't list then. Biden is not talking about them. The Dems in Congress are doing nothing. Give me some evidence of your claim.

    IOW nothing.
    What about inflation and the economy?
    What about the deficit?
    What about the border?
    What about the military vis-a-vis the growing threat from China?
