he is into the next stage and next votes
yeah so now we wait
shows over folks
Its over
Finally
That was fun.
WAHT?
ahh that was amusing my Canadian politics is only that fun when they are screaming at each other
now let the media spin begin!
The Chairman just said: We're done, Meeting ajourned, 2h Rule. WTF?!
Now the senate votes for him to be the justice
yup the vote was done 11-10 yes it passes NEXT
XD fucking christ yeah finna fuckign leeeeeeeeeeeee
Is he in yet or not? Should I hibernate until this fuckin' dumb shit is over
in a week
u shall find out
potentially
if teh US doesnt get Nuked before then
@Scribblehatch Seems like the Senate now has to vote
well next week they will argue about procedure and fight like hell to try and get the FBI involved again
yeah the senate floor
i think its only then they gonna see if theyre going to reccomend the white house ask the FBI to investigate
Flakes twitter gonna explode
Sooooo that was a shit show
its been a shitshow
I expected nothing less ๐
shitshow hasn't stopped since before 2016
Itโs going to the Senate now, but they have a none binding agreement to have the FBI diva week long investigation? An I understanding this right?
LOL during this facebook had a news announcement - Facebook says 50M accounts affected by breach
This season of *Current Year* has been the craziest so far
@KillJoy That good timing for them.
yes - timing -
facebook breached while senators are getting doxxed
@Deleted User that's my read of it. he's out of committee and this is in Mitch's hands now.
@xorgy What a blessed time we live in
Itโs pretty confusing . The committee even seemed confused
the senate has no power over the FBI and the FBI probably doesn't want to touch this shit so I doubt anything will come of it.
it was not confusing at all they could see how they got played but argued for the political points
It'll be ramrodded through the senate as fast as possible. Dems will probably try to break quorum.
Breaking quorum is the easiest way to get Flake off the hook for a yes vote on the floor. He won't have to vote yes or no or present - just not show up.
of course they wont take long term action
its a brave thing to be the one who votes outside party line to get something done. he is going to be hearing it non stop now
that means actually doing something!!
Bernie can still win
they don't need long term action.
just 30 days
well, 38 days
even if in this case theyre going to do something to not do something
I'm still rooting for my man Bernie to win 2016
Just gotta figure out what Seth Rich was gonna tell everyone about
whow there is more important news out there. https://www.thestar.com/business/2018/09/28/nintendo-wins-damage-suit-against-tokyo-go-kart-business.html

10 million yen? Holy shit. *doesn't bother reading the US$ value*
<:TimThink:482277772497125378>
Voting is already a joke, might as well let felons do it
and buss loads of canadians next ๐
How much are felons really going to vote though?
Yeah honestly
dont need ID so why not ๐
What would be their turn out? Has to be low
Not a civic minded bunch
Felons are still citizens at any rate
If we want to stop recidivism we have to treat them like people at some point
Just surrender to Japanese culture and be done with it - https://youtu.be/H_yATzyi-3g
Iโm neutral. I donโt think criminals are a serious voting block.
Yeah if someone wants to lobby for felon voting rights I say good luck, not gonna help or hinder them
And I've already surrendered to the power of Japanese metal <https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=P8Ob1sWrfSM>

ree
?
They called it racist the last time repubs tried the "felons cant vote thing"
Cause it "affects the voices of PoCs"
I'd go so far to say, only people who pay income tax, should be allowed to vote
its more racist to assume that PoC will always be the majority in prison
more proof the dems are the racist ones
wait i missed it
Damnit i missed it
did they allow it to happen or nah?
which?
the confirmation
did they vote to have it happen on monday or wait
it's out of committee and in the hands of mcconnell.
huh
well that is progress
other than that we don't know anything yet.
Tbh that was a waste of time
I thought that was where he would be voted to be seated
No, the whole Senate has to vote on that
exactly ^
The Committee's vote was to bring it before the whole senate
Flake still being flakey though
Yeah heโs being more flakey than a virgin girl
Civil war 2
"Justice Editor" at ThinkProgress.
That's an Orwellian job description if I've ever heard one.
But that tweet isnt inciting harrassment right twitter ?
"Because this is a Republic with Democratic leanings, you daft twit"
Canโt be if youโre attacking the dominant power structure <:VeRiFiEd:463064374236413962>
Oops my bad
I dont have a <:VeRiFiEd:463064374236413962>
reeeeeeeeeeeeeeee
-cola
Calli will secede before there is a civil war. Sorry to burst your bubble.
what will civil war 3 be about
fortnite?
Political control.
I would bet it looks like people wanting to throw out most of the constitution and other people refusing to budge.
The DSA's chief legislative priority is actually electoral reform, and I can bet the Dems are completely on board.
Stuff like, removing the electoral college.
And throwing out the constitution will be 'progressive' ๐
Stacking the legislature and court.
Removing the ability of states to set electoral rules and then requiring them to register more voters (like felons and illegal immigrants)
anyone that doesn't realise that the constitution is a work of art needs their head tested. We should all be so lucky to have anything half as good.
That's the usual attitude in academia right now. Defend the Constitution and get thrown out.
Unless you use it to argue a very specific line.
But Unis will send security to campus organizations putting US flags for 9/11. Or distributing copies of the US constitution and Declaration of Independence on campus--and they've been doing it for decades now.
It's going to be the main break, IMO. Is the US even a nation with a worthwhile history?
My guess is that most people here answer "yes" without reservation. But the social Justice left sees it differently and is violent in it's attack.
This will, of course, get a number of people very angry in response. And at some point, ANTIFA will mass acquire firearms. The Militias already have them.
The constant harassment and aggression against the Republican lawmakers and Republican base is going to normalize the Proud Boys and militias. At some point, they'll start showing up to defend Republicans doing normal things and the Republicans will decide it's much better to have vigilante defense than no defense at all.
And then things will get really ugly.
Honestly, all it really takes at this point for things to explode is a key lawmaker to get killed.
we almost had that already
And we got lucky the baseball shooter couldn't aim.
But that won't matter at close quarters.
There is a reason the societal elites are suddenly so in favor of gun control.
Control the force of arms and you control the political power.
Don't you think that is kind of a sticking point. The people with gun atm have them coz of the 2nd, alot of them live in a gun culture, it's second nature to alot of them. If antifa pick up guns, yeah they can fire them but theres' more to starting a war than holding a gun.
Exactly,
The right way overestimates it's chances.
It lacks the key elements to wage its own modern war. Like telecoms.
Look up "John Brown Gun Club". commies are working on overcoming their deficit in arms training.,
Or propaganda organizations.
they're still a joke but they're working on it.
Yeah, and that's the thing. It's way easier to learn to shoot than to build up effective organizations.
FWIW, I don't think the 2nd amendment would survive a civil war.
regardless of the victor.
i would say that there is a difference between 'learning to shoot' and 'learning effective small unit tactics'
That might be true.
But they do have the ability to turn up people.
And they do have lots of encrypted services they've created with the help of the tech industry.
Plus, they have the mainstream media.
when the right tries to get people to show up to train they tend to get infiltrated by feds who entrap them
that's why the right wing militia movement is dead
Yeah, basically. I wouldn't be surprised if ANTIFA is infiltrated too.
It was picking up.
And I haven't heard it really slowing down much.
Republican control has probably sapped the energy, but I haven't heard of any disbanding.
But enough of the "who wins the civil war" talk.
The wolverines!!
WOLVERIIIIINES
the ones with the guns normally win wars
So the real question is under what conditions a civil war would start.
And what would lead to such a breakout.
guns will not be particularly important. this is not going to be some ww2 style city fight.
think cartel violence
^
Yeah. tell that to ukraine
Like I said, I don't think it will break out. The US would break up by vote first.
I think we'll see a new "days of rage"
and it'll start on both sides this time.
The US won't just divide and start fighting, however.
information, specifically names, locations, etc, will be the most important weapon. and the left already has control of that because they control big tech. all that google/facebook/apple/twitter/linkedin data will be at their disposal.
Basically this.
ANTIFA actually avoids alot of big tech products for this reason.
Why do you think there are some rabid right wing nuts that want to torch those companies?
They have their own alternatives.
You don't torch, you capture or leak.
Once information is free.
It's no longer an advantage.
I have talked to some a-holes who want to drop the Google Server building like the Cyberdyne offices in T2
Also, Chinese and Russian devices may be more useful. It's doubtful the Chinese would turn in information on elements causing dis-rest unless there is something in it for them.
Easier said than done. Google has more than enough backups to make that not worth the effort.
What you *actually* would want to do is find a way to leak the entire contents to the world.
how about no
I didn't say I trusted these people. Or I thought they were capable of doing that. I just know people who would try.
Fight club style
@Khanclansith well tel them they're idiots with no sense of strategic advantage.
I have cut ties with those clowns a while ago.
very wel
I'm getting ads for @BetoORourke and @Ocasio2018 on Facebook.
I'm not getting any other political ads.
What is facebook trying to tell me
That it really likes Progressives?
Or maybe you hang out with alot of people on the left.
you live in both tx and ny
All the more reason to delete your facebook account imo
Too late.
They actually can take pretty good guesses *even if you were never on facebook*
As if Facebook will rely on you having an account...
They have what they call "ghost profiles" of people who should exist but aren't on Facebook.
Based on your friends.
Google also.
And Microsoft, for that matter.
Good thing I don't have any friends ๐
Do you have family on FB?
Burn your computer, burn your car, burn your phone.
Live in the woods.
Too late.
It's not hard to find people in the woods.
And they'll just get to you if they ever want you anyway.
that
Hearing
was a circus
The whole thing has been a circus.
the dems beetter hope he doesn't get in SCOTUS, you all made an enemy
I WAS ENTERTAINED
Thats what ive been saying @acarson
Congrats he will personally attack dems but overturning roe v wade
by*
Hes gonna repeal roe vs wade they made him an enemy
Probably won't
I hope he weaponizes the tenth amendment
Come to think of it, there is probably a reason Justice Thomas is so clearly on the right.
Kavanaugh was chosen specifically because he was just about as moderate as you could get.
It was highly unlikely he'd just overturn Roe.
If you start with a moderate
Which is why they picked him, Murkowski and Collins weren't going to vote for someone who is clearly pro-life
Expose them to the machine
I wouldn't be surprised if he goes hard right after all this is over.
Or he could be too scared to act.
It's hard to say.
It depends what kind of person he is.
He's got everything to loose if he doesn't.
A big problem with people on the right is a tendency to be easily frightened.
The pissed off man that walked down to give a speech is not one I'd expect to pull punches.
If he gets really angry and goes hard right, I wouldn't blame him.
Fair point.
Tim is wearing red and black confirmed antifa member
He didn't pull any in the speech.
One of the pundits put it eloquently
He did not want to have to be in a position to destroy Ford.
Timtifa
Such a blessed age.
Can you even count them all?
Manchin is the only Dem voting to confirm Kavanaugh so far?
I heard there's a couple others.
They won't vote for Kavanaugh if there is a chance he could get denied.
