    You're gonna have to explain to millions of women across the country why there is a national abortion ban and they no longer have a constitional, fundamental right to an abortion.

    The democrats had the house, senate, and presidency when Dobbs went into effect. They didn't even try to enact a legislative solution. Fuck off.

      I don’t think it’s my job to explain why other people didn’t do anything about it for the 50 years that they could have. I can, but I’m tired

      Sorry they just couldn't because apparently the House Parlimentarian or something said they couldn't. Maybe in a real democracy we vote for that guy he sounds more important than all the other folks we have the option to vote for

        I don't mean to be the contrairentarian, but it's even funnier (funny in the same way it's used in the beginning of the song Mad World) because the Parliamentarian did something else to undermine his argument. They were the scapegoat for making the economic bill in COVID (another hehexd moment) shittier. Abortion slipping through during Biden's watch just happened anyway. Trump probably would have passed the same neutered efforts to sure up necessary infrastructure against increasing climate related effects. Either way the US is going hard AF trying to dominate energy.

        The economics are devestatingly bad, the domestic policy is barbaric, and the foreign policy is so bad WW3 probably doesn't happen because the US crumbles before something mobilizes, but it doesn't stop the US from putting its whole soul into reenacting all the shit that made people want to stop Hitler.

      Would fucking love for a lib to try that line.

      Like you said, the reason is because libs refused to do anything so they could use it as a cudgel to get people to vote instead of offering anything because they never thought republicans would do it. Because they're absolute fucking dogshit at politics.

          Sure but I'm assuming that's not the politics libs are talking about when they say why we have to vote for Biden.

          If they admitted dems are controlled opposition I'd be a alot more willing to listen to their other opinions.

        They are good at politics, the problem is that their politics are being good cop to Republican bad cop.

      Not recognising American places that share their name with old world areas is praxis.

              Hah

              The city had a population of at least ten million and was the fifteenth city built with the name "New York". Because of this, the Tenth Doctor jovially noted on more than one occasion that it should have been called "New New New New New New New New New New New New New New New York."

      You heard him. If Biden isn't reelected, the Roe vs. Wade repeal will be undone.

    you’re gonna have to explain why the DOJ and FBI are gone

    That would be great. And why is Biden put in contrast to “the guy who s-xually abuses women”?

        Good impulse, but this fucker is running a DNC-aligned podcast trying to be another Pod Save America clone, rather than someone who isn't seeking a media career just making a personal expression like maybe-later-kiddo . We can say let em be when he stops polluting the airwaves with his shitty little podcast.

        Also it inexplicably has "unplugged" in the title like he doesn't understand that MTV Unplugged was named for the use of acoustic instruments. Like, you're a fucking talking head, what are you unplugged from? tHe MaTrIx?

        It's not some random guy. He's a fully committed liberal. Chris Mowrey is 21 years old and created a Gen-Z Democrat podcast called Chris & Harry Unplugged.

      I think it's a very contrived attempt at appearing spontaneous

      "You know, I wasn't planning on making this video, in fact, I was just going about my daily business. But I cannot remain silent, and it's so urgent that I post I've got to do it right here and now"

      No public spaces. Being in your car is basically the only place you can be other than your house.
