[21:30] IsambardPrince Trump's voters didn't vote for him because they really think he can fix the economy. [21:30] IsambardPrince They voted for him because he's an authoritarian who promised the bigots power. [21:31] MinceR i thought they voted for him because they thought it would piss off people who disagree with them [21:31] MinceR (and they don't care about the costs of that) [21:32] IsambardPrince They don't care about it now. [21:33] IsambardPrince I told mom wait until Elon Musk cuts her Social Security in half and it's that and a tiny pension the Catholics lied about and may come back for the rest of. [21:33] IsambardPrince She doesn't even know who Elon Musk is. [21:33] IsambardPrince She has no idea what she's done. [21:33] MinceR maybe she never will have an idea [21:33] MinceR i guess that's why they say ignorance is bliss [21:35] IsambardPrince The only somewhat bright spot on this whole disaster is the Republicans didn't exactly sweep the House of Representatives. [21:35] IsambardPrince They get a majority plus 1 or 2. [21:35] IsambardPrince Last time Trump won the election, he brought in a large Republican majority and still couldn't get them under control. [21:36] IsambardPrince But the Democrats are a pretty shitty party. They made Nancy Pelosi and Chuck Schumer their leaders. [21:36] IsambardPrince Pelosi was "the architect" of elevating Harris without a primary election. [21:36] MinceR they also came with candidates that failed or very nearly failed to beat cheeto hitler [21:36] IsambardPrince And a couple years ago, Pelosi said, quote, "What America needs the most is a big strong Republican Party!" [21:37] MinceR s/came/& up/ [21:37] IsambardPrince She also caved on everything and gave Trump over a billion and a half dollars to build the border wall. [21:38] IsambardPrince The only thing she was holding out for was "on the condition you build it all in California so WE don't have to deal with the invasion as much as other states do. [21:38] IsambardPrince This is not a party that draws a line in the sand and says "This far, no further!" [21:38] MinceR :> [21:39] IsambardPrince Even if the House Democrats took the majority, they'd still crater and give Trump whatever he wants. [21:39] IsambardPrince Being in the minority is better because they're more likely to stay in line and start voting no on everything with the hopes that voters will blame the Republicans. [21:39] MinceR if they don't, he can just Official Act enough of them to take that majority away [21:40] IsambardPrince It was bad last time. At one point, Trump had the Democrats down to like 191-192, something like that. [21:40] IsambardPrince They got thumped at the ballot box, and then a couple had to resign over scandals. [21:40] MinceR i think people tend to forget or be unaware of how orban reacted after he spent 4 years in government and then lost an election and what that led to [21:40] IsambardPrince Jesse Jackson Jr. was accused of bribery and other stuff and then quit Congress and blamed "bipolar disorder". [21:41] MinceR i expect the same (or worse) from baldemort [21:41] IsambardPrince MinceR, Right, the Republicans are now wanting a national Voter ID law. [21:41] IsambardPrince Technically, that would be difficult with their numbers in Congress. [21:42] IsambardPrince Even if they passed it, Supreme Court precedent from the Voting Rights Act of 1970 would seem to run counter to this. [21:42] IsambardPrince But Supreme Court precedent doesn't mean much anymore. [21:42] MinceR they own the "supreme court" anyway [21:43] MinceR they can flip-flop any of those decisions any time [21:43] IsambardPrince In 1970, Congress tried to pass a law that said that anyone over 18 could vote in a federal election. [21:43] IsambardPrince The Supreme Court threw it out, which is why they had to try again with the Constitutional Amendment. [21:44] IsambardPrince The Supreme Court threw it out saying that election requirements thate aren't in the Constitution are typically up to the states. [21:44] IsambardPrince MinceR, This Supreme Court has used that precedent to throw out parts of the 1965 Voting Rights Act too. [21:44] IsambardPrince Like the parts that required pre-clearance for voting law changes in the South from the DoJ. [21:44] IsambardPrince They said "We're not racist anymore, just trust us. A lot's changed since 1965!" [21:45] MinceR lol [21:45] IsambardPrince And the Supreme Court said "LOL! Okay, here you go." [21:45] IsambardPrince And they immediately passed dozens of new racist voting laws. [21:45] MinceR well yes, a lot ha schanged since 1965 [21:45] MinceR for the worse. [21:45] MinceR s/ha sc/has c/ [21:46] IsambardPrince MinceR, So far they aren't allowed to use poll taxes and literacy tests. That part hasn't been struck down. [21:46] IsambardPrince But maybe because it would stop more Trump voters. [21:46] IsambardPrince It would be hard to vote with a third grade education and 8 hungry mouths to feed when you need to pay a poll tax and prove you can read and write and pass a civics test. [21:47] IsambardPrince Basically it would get rid of the worst voters, the ones who should NEVER be allowed near a polling place. [21:47] IsambardPrince The people like my mom. [21:47] IsambardPrince Assuming the test asked a battery of questions required to pass high school. [21:48] IsambardPrince She got her nursing license when they were still teaching people how to apply mustard packs. [21:48] IsambardPrince She believes that all vaccines are "useless" and "hurt people". [21:48] IsambardPrince And she drinks borax. [21:49] IsambardPrince If the literacy test was a smaller version of the test to pass high school, then the Democrats would pretty much sweep the election. [21:49] IsambardPrince There might be a few Republicans left from the suburbs. [21:51] IsambardPrince I know that there's a person out there that doesn't like me commenting on "blacks", but remember it was blacks that gave us the gay marriage ban of California in 2008, and it was blacks that elevated Donald Trump because they were afraid that Venezuelans would eat into their welfare payments. [21:51] IsambardPrince The blacks are now shouting at the mayor of Chicago during city meetings that they need to get the Venezuelans out because the welfare money is for blacks.

[21:56] IsambardPrince It went down like this... [21:56] IsambardPrince Republicans are not normally able to win statewide elections, and haven't been for years, but a confluence of factors. [21:57] IsambardPrince The impeachment and removal of Rod Blagojevich left Pat Quinn in charge. [21:58] TR News "We're creating a little program that takes in a soundfile, estimates the pitch and returns it as human readable notation." gemini://lierre.smol.pub/nachtigall-dev-log-1 [21:58] IsambardPrince The Democrats nominated Quinn, which had never actually been tested in a statewide Democratic primary. Quinn won the 2010 election, but only barely. Because of the TEA Party wave. [21:58] IsambardPrince He lost every county except Cook (so he lost 101 of 102 counties) but eeked out a small win). [21:58] IsambardPrince He tried running again in 2014, and lost.

[22:03] IsambardPrince If Illinois was not already a state, nobody would allow it in now. [22:04] IsambardPrince Because the federal government is going to have to step in somehow when the state defaults on its bonds. [22:04] IsambardPrince During COVID, the Federal Reserve created a bailout fund specifically for Illinois. [22:05] IsambardPrince They called it something else and technically any state could take a loan from it, but every other state could get better loan terms in the private sector so Illinois was the only one to take money from it.

[23:01] IsambardPrince They might as well have just amended the constitution to let the president appoint whoever he wants. [23:02] IsambardPrince The Republicans have been burning Senate floor time making the Democrats vote repeatedly to switch between executive and legislative sessions. [23:03] IsambardPrince To try to stop them from confirming judges. [23:03] IsambardPrince Next year, if the Democrats do the same thing, the Republicans will change the Senate rules so that isn't allowed. [23:03] IsambardPrince The Democrats are really good with circular firing squads. [23:03] IsambardPrince Fighting with one hand tied behind their backs. [23:04] IsambardPrince Letting the Republicans abuse Senate rules then getting rid of the rules when they're back in the majority.

And were going to do everything we can to get as many judges done as possible, trying to overcome the Republican obstruction, Schumer told NBC News in a recent interview.

[23:08] IsambardPrince The Democrats are trying to stack the Courts with Radical Left Judges on their way out the door. Republican Senators need to Show Up and Hold the Line No more Judges confirmed before Inauguration Day! Trump posted on Truth Social Tuesday.

[23:13] IsambardPrince To the point where landlords may cut the shit and rent to anyone who still has some money. [23:13] IsambardPrince My former landlord is listing apartments again after renting them only a couple of months ago. [23:14] IsambardPrince He's taken the rent so high that the people who move in run out of money and disappear on him. [23:16] IsambardPrince MinceR, On credit scores, I wrote... [23:17] IsambardPrince "(I call it the "high FICO nonsense" game because like, stupid landlords that don't want to rent to you for three years after a bankruptcy but will happily take on tenants that are $50,000 in credit card debt but manage to keep a 625+ credit score because they're still making interest payments. It incentivizes making decisions where you're more likely to get stuck with a problem tenant later on and you'll prioritize people like this [23:17] IsambardPrince who will file bankruptcy later (because of the cards) and make you spend a year and a half trying to dig them out of your apartment and they won't owe you anything when you manage to, and you can't call it an eviction, and you'll even eat your court costs and attorney bill. No this is not theoretical. One of my exes did this. They spent 14 months trying to get him out, they never got anything, and they couldn't even give him a bad [23:17] IsambardPrince reference. That was aside from the bank trying to get their car back for nearly two years. But he had a good credit score when they first saw him, so yay credit scores.)

[23:25] IsambardPrince Well, it's time to kick it up a notch with coffee, up the wrong hole. [23:28] IsambardPrince Since the Republicans like Christmas so much, there will be a demonstration.

Has items like "Flander's All Beef Patties". [23:37] IsambardPrince I mistook them for hamburgers one time.

[23:37] IsambardPrince Their produce is wilted and disgusting and flavorless. [23:38] IsambardPrince You can get a cheap can of coffee, but it tastes like it fell off the canning line and got swept off the floor a few days later. [23:38] IsambardPrince Customers that shop at Walmart for food are not the most discerning bunch. [23:39] IsambardPrince Many of them will throw expensive meat onto a shelf where it warms up all day and then an employee will take it over and toss it back into the fridge. [23:39] IsambardPrince MinceR, Stupid people have a lot of kids because it's like lower lifeforms. [23:40] IsambardPrince They expect half of them will get shot or ran over by someone else's stupid kid who stole a car. [23:40] IsambardPrince If they have 8 of them, and half survive, they still spread their genes around. [23:41] IsambardPrince People are getting dumber and dumber because they're the result of people who thought having kids in the 1980s was a good idea, followed by people who thought having them while all the factories were leaving the country in the 90s was a good idea. [23:41] IsambardPrince Followed by the people who thought having them while they were living off of home equity loans in the 2000s was a good idea. [23:41] IsambardPrince It only gets worse every time there's a new batch. [23:42] IsambardPrince The next batch will be kids of parents who had them despite the Great Recession unfolding. [23:42] MinceR cultists are now trying to outbreed their competitors [23:42] IsambardPrince It's adverse selection causing reverse evolution right before our eyes.

[23:43] IsambardPrince He said that the time spent since 1969 was not long enough for humanity to change much, but he was wrong. [23:43] IsambardPrince In just the last 50 years or so we've seen a dramatic decline in quality of people. [23:44] IsambardPrince Because each batch of them were produced by people who didn't stop even though things were obviously getting worse around them.
