The people who run that site are either brilliant satirists or so utterly stupid as to make Rain Man look mainstream and normal. The stuff they put out is in left field.
Beto O'Rouke ran for PRESIDENT. This is him, now:
It was NEVER about the rules for them. It was, and is, ALWAYS about the power.
Tulsi specifically stated this was her main reason for dumping the party. There was another who said the same thing, but I don't recall the person. I liken it to former members of Scientology waking up and thinking "WTF am I doing here with these people?"
Because they have no principles. No kings... unless it benefits us. Redistricting is a threat against democracy... unless we do it to protect democracy. The list goes on and on.
@AWP nailed it, it's not about the principle, it's about the power, in every single issue. Feminism isn't about equality, they don't care about 50% representation of off shore oil riggers, feminists want the C-Suite. The LGBTQ mafia doesn't want equal protection under the law, they want to be able to have a hypersexualized male dressed as a female take your kids to drag queen story hour.
The DNC as we know it today is one big example of the slippery slope fallacy played out in real life every single day.
The uniparty wins again!

That POS could stop being a POS if he starts advocating for nuclear power. Cut the solar bullshit grift.
There's a reason Peter Thiel is working within the GOP infrastructure instead of against it.
There's no reason we shouldn't continue to utilize solar in places where it makes sense.

On top of parking structures and Grocery Stores. Not the Desert. There's enough people destroying this environment that we don't need more advocating for that nonsense. Solar for the most part sucks.

Silver lining: Potential proof of concept for open carry as a crime deterrent in major cities.
DC murders? None.
Looks like Trump was right again.
Suck it, liberals.
(That’s a haiku, I try hard for you people).
National Guard's presence slashes D.C. crime rates, with seven days homicide-free

From the Article:
That's kind of a shit statement without context, right? Like tell us when the last time DC went a week without a homicide.
To provide the context the article can't, best I've found is April of last year.
Give yourself some points for that lol.

Remember during 2016-2024 when you said a true thing and then the fact checkers (where did they all go??) would tell you that it was true, but it "needed context", and then proceed with a 2k word article following the "it's not happening/it is happening but not as bad as you say/it's happening, it's as bad as you say, but you're causing harm by pointing it out/we admit it's happening now but we think that's actually a good thing" framework. Man, what a wild time. Anywhoo...
Your contention doesn't appear to be that what I said isn't true (it is)- just that one time, for 9 days, 493 days ago, the same thing happened? Did the President have to deploy the National Guard that time, too? Or was it just sort of, you know, a thing that happened (it was just a thing that happened with no remarkable change in policing, policy, or action taken). What was the action taken that resulted in the 9 day drop in murders?
The context that's relevant and helpful is- "For 493 days, until Trump took action, DC averaged 1 homicide every 2.1 days and ranked 4th or 5th in murder per 100k people. Then the President took action, and those actions had immediate results as supported by the facts of the matter, and the only people saying otherwise are doing so due to their apparent, immovable, personal bias towards the admin and their unwillingness to allow a single good thing to happen in America without pointing out that Trump Bad."
FTR, during Bowser's term (2014-on) DC has averaged 26.2 murders per 100k, including a 30 year high in 2023. I mean, in CoNtExT that's not nearly as bad as the crack epidemic when DC was the murder capital of the world clocking 86/100k right? So Bowser is doing great if we apply the correct historical context.
