I know we’re all feeling doom and gloom but can we get a thread of some wins/good news from last night?
Out of 10 pro abortion state measures 7 passed (one still undecided i think), and only 1 anti abortion measure passed.
We won’t have to vote any more, so all those people who never wanted to vote in the past won’t need to worry their little heads any more.
The heat death of the universe will eventually come
Can we accelerate that timeline? Say to like Jan 20, 2025 (let the kids enjoy one last chance at any snow we might be lucky enough to get)?
Well, the sun will explode in 5 billion years, but if that’s too long, don’t worry, it’s only 1 billion until solar winds carry off half of Earth’s water.
The monsters who want us all dead might not take all three branches…! Maybe…!
Last Week Tonight will have more material than they know what to do with it
I doubt they will cover it. That would be a death sentence at this point.
Last Week Forever: “Surprise twist this week: Trump good? Here’s why Trump is God and we should always worship him!”
Delaware elected Sarah McBride, who is the first open transgender representative in Congress.
Georgia district attorney Fani Willis, who has been trying to prosecute Trump for trying to overturn the 2020 election, won reelection.
Washington Congressman Dan Newhouse, one of the ten Republicans who voted to impeach Trump (and one of two in that group who survived the subsequent midterm elections), successfully defended his seat again against a Trump-endorsed opponent. That’s at least one Republican in the House who doesn’t always rubber-stamp the party agenda.
Good news is we don’t have much time left
Kentucky amendment 2, which would have redirected public funds to private schools, failed miserably. Of all the red states, Kentucky seems to be somewhat unique in its’ strong resistance to Republican attacks on public education. It is, after all, why we have a Democratic governor. I only hope that continues to hold true.
Maybe we’ll finally wake up and realize this country was not built on good intentions and is operating as intended.
Almost like it’s on sacred Indian burial grounds.
I needed that chuckle. Thanks.
Nono, Americans made peace with the natives!
Trail of Tears of Joy
What was it before that, though?
The west coast stuck to its guns almost completely. Mark Robinson and Kari Lake lost their races incredibly enough.
Biden got some big stuff done with chips, infrastructure investment, and more. Unless Trump starts tearing down bridges and forcing people to remove heat pumps, some of Biden’s stuff will be very difficult to reverse, physically or politically.
Nebraska got weed and another state elected the first openly transgender U.S. Representative. Tlaib retained her seat.
Also, I learned that a grade school classmate won a state rep seat in one of the midwest swing states earlier and that’s good news to me, at least.
Massachusetts passed an unprecedented measure allowing ride share drivers to unionize.
Jeff Jackson for NC’s AG
Trump won.
I’d tell you to GFY, but you already have & just don’t realize it yet.
I’m curious, what part of that do you think will be good for anyone who isn’t a rich which male?
Washington got a really awesome governor.
