It's time for Democrats to knock this shit off. Oh but the rules, but the rules.
PSA: People that openly flout laws and systems of order, don't give a shit about the rules bud. No wonder they lost. Load of impotent geeks is what they are.

Welcome to the discussion of US Politics!
Rules:
- Post only links to articles, Title must fairly describe link contents. If your title differs from the site’s, it should only be to add context or be more descriptive. Do not post entire articles in the body or in the comments.
Links must be to the original source, not an aggregator like Google Amp, MSN, or Yahoo.
Example:
- Articles must be relevant to politics. Links must be to quality and original content. Articles should be worth reading. Clickbait, stub articles, and rehosted or stolen content are not allowed. Check your source for Reliability and Bias here.
- Be civil, No violations of TOS. It’s OK to say the subject of an article is behaving like a (pejorative, pejorative). It’s NOT OK to say another USER is (pejorative). Strong language is fine, just not directed at other members. Engage in good-faith and with respect! This includes accusing another user of being a bot or paid actor. Trolling is uncivil and is grounds for removal and/or a community ban.
- No memes, trolling, or low-effort comments. Reposts, misinformation, off-topic, trolling, or offensive. Similarly, if you see posts along these lines, do not engage. Report them, block them, and live a happier life than they do. We see too many slapfights that boil down to "Mom! He's bugging me!" and "I'm not touching you!" Going forward, slapfights will result in removed comments and temp bans to cool off.
- Vote based on comment quality, not agreement. This community aims to foster discussion; please reward people for putting effort into articulating their viewpoint, even if you disagree with it.
- No hate speech, slurs, celebrating death, advocating violence, or abusive language. This will result in a ban. Usernames containing racist, or inappropriate slurs will be banned without warning
We ask that the users report any comment or post that violate the rules, to use critical thinking when reading, posting or commenting. Users that post off-topic spam, advocate violence, have multiple comments or posts removed, weaponize reports or violate the code of conduct will be banned.
All posts and comments will be reviewed on a case-by-case basis. This means that some content that violates the rules may be allowed, while other content that does not violate the rules may be removed. The moderators retain the right to remove any content and ban users.
That's all the rules!

What exactly do you expect them to do? They're impotent because we didn't give them any power.
whatever the fuck mitch mcconnell would do.
Go home and sacrifice his hand to the demon lord Anthraxus in exchange for more power?
Filibuster everything.
They need to start fighting fire with fire. It's not like the other side is that intelligent in a lot of ways, so trying to fight with logic isn't going to get this done. Start a misinformation campaign like they do or something. Damn glad it ain't my problem, don't get me wrong. But I do see both sides of it, and democratic arrogance is how we are here too, in a lot of ways.
As brain dead as this is, maybe quit running women in must win elections. I ain't saying it's right, or that's fair or just (it shouldn't even be a thing). But it's literally stacking the odds against you in insurmountable fashion. Nothing against Kamala, but if was pretty clear right out of the gates she was going to lose, and they just ignored it.
'Why aren't democrats doing more, like fraud and sexism?!'
You know what, if it ends the nightmare, go for it. It ain't going to be anything swell that gets rid of these guys, if you ever can at this point.
I agree with the sentiment and there are for sure things they should be doing, like stonewalling and slowing down every thing they can. Other than that, what do you propose they do outside of the rules?
We can't oppose people breaking the law and break the same law ourselves. That's just nonsensical hypocrisy.
I'm afraid all the conventional rules are out the window. I mean when the stakes are becoming what they are, you do what needs done. That doesn't involve going to Congress, writing bills that will never get passed or going before a supreme court where the conclusion is decided before the case even gets underway.
Crying on CNN isn't going to stop what's going on, I know that much for sure.
Human trafficking with more words.
"third country deportation"
The fuck is that?
These people are incapable of being shamed, and will continue to not care.
Great theatre, but I expect this to be as effective as a single ice cube on a house fire.
Third country deportations with no due process are wrong, period, and we will keep fighting these illegal actions in court.”
True, but also... How much are these flights to South Sudan by way of Djibouti costing taxpayers?
That sounds way more expensive than just keeping these specific convicted felons locked up
And they just turn them loose once they get to south Sudan? Sure, it's far off but it isn't exactly the moon. They can go pretty much anywhere they want
They're essentially just releasing covicted felons on the world
If they keep them locked up in the U.S. they might possibly have to give them due process at some point - can’t have that!
She won't. This administration is far to incompetent and corrupt for her to resign.
They’ll just replace her with someone just as bad, if not worse.
They could probably get one of Mike Huckabee's sons if they don't want to lose the dog murderer vote.
Sounds like somebody's about to have their office raided.
Did they also sLaM her? Call for her head on a pike or sit the fuck down, you feckless twit.
