    Lol, the Republicans have the SCOTUS, Congress, and the Presidency. Exactly what is it the Democrats are supposed to do?

      The Duopoly has full control.

      Nothing is happening this election that both the Democrats and Republicans did not want to happen.

          Keep telling yourself that the next time a democrat suddenly swaps sides the second it’s convenient for Republicans.

        How does the duopoly have full control if Republicans have the majority in the House/Senate/Supreme Court?

                No, the Pro Act by the Dems completely blocked it federally. So of course, the red states did it anyways.

                  So it sounds like a convenient way to block the legislation while pretending some people were actually against it

    Democrats don’t have the votes, lmfao.

    Filibuster is getting gutted, it only needs simple majority to remove.

    Also, the VP as President of the Senate can just ignore the parliamentarian, so they wont even need a vote to abolish the filibuster.

      Didn’t the democrats have the opportunity to remove the filibuster in the Senate and chose not to?

      The federal government is only one locus of power; they have the majority in many State legislatures.

      But by framing it as attacking trans health care they will gain the support of the R masses. Gotta say I’m getting bored of watching leopards eating faces.

    There are no votes. There’s a trifecta.

    It means birth control, ACA, social security, Medicare, HIPAA, overtime, no fault divorce, federal labor laws, the department of education (and it’s mandates regarding special needs kids, safety checks on Wall Street, and lots of other things could be gone by next Christmas.

    Wow. Embrace reality. It’s a weird headline that doesn’t track with reality. Like Roe as soon as the document was made public, it’s already gone it’s just not official yet.

        No, I just realized I couldn’t type everything. There’s a lot of things listed out in project 2025.

        As is, I expect where President Musk and the Heritage Foundation meet most is in forceful increase of fertility rates. So that will likely be where they start. As a non breeder odds are you’ll be overlooked for a short while. But only a short while.

      I’m actually more annoyed with them for pretending like “the parliamentarian” was a real obstacle to change as opposed to a convenient excuse for inaction.

          Maybe if Democrats wanted people to vote for them they should have actually tried to deliver on their promises rather than making up BS excuses for 4 years.

                Seriously. The entire Republican game plan since the moment Obama was elected has been “block everything”. They even stated it as the party goal.

                Yet somehow after all these years of them doing exactly that, people are still confused.

                  This is why I can’t support a guy like Bernie Sanders. The fact he said Kamala Harris lost this election because the Dems abandoned the working class is complete bullshit. The guy, LITERALLY, 10 days before the election released a youtube video urging people to vote for Kamala and how Joe Biden was the most labor friendly president of our generation.

                  Now he’s done a 180 when it’s convenient for him.

    Yes, they will happily let trans healthcare be gutted as they “learn” from this election and continue their inexorable move to the right.

    Will Democrats Let the GOP Gut Trans Health Care?

    Yes.

    The real question is, will the public? Unless there is at least anger in the streets, also yes.
