    Oh look, it’s Henry Cuellar. The indicted DINO who barely beat a progressive last primary after Nancy Pelosi endorsed him.

      I looked up Illinois’ Brad Schneider as I live in the Chicago area. Sure enough, guy is Jewish and involved with AIPAC.

      I’m very seriously thinking of writing him to give a piece of my mind. I don’t care if he’s Jewish or not - if this is literally about suppressing someone’s right to protest (Palestine vs Israel), then he does not represent me or many others.

    Actually, that would be giving Biden insane new powers, would it not? He’s still President if I’m not mistaken

        If the Senate passes the bill, and if Biden signs (some big ifs) then Trump would have those powers. But, if those “ifs” don’t happen the bill is dead and the next Congress will have to vote again.

          Ok, cool story. What is your point? They voted for a bill, whether other people stop it is irrelevant to their personal responsibility for voting to give Trump a tool of oppression.

              This is a very dumb read based on literally no evidence for the actions of this list of reliable quislings.

                Whatever. Just stating facts. If they’re not liked it means little difference to me.
