someone on here recommended 5-4, I caught this odd lib-brained interview idea while working in the Novichok dicksucking lab this morning before therapy
I listened to it this morning.
There’s a part where Warren is talking about how ridiculous it is that Dems say every election is the most important of our lives.
Then I shit you not, with her next sentence she says how the 2022 midterms actually are the most important election of our lives.
I audibly burst out laughing while at home alone. At least the hosts spent some time after the interview talking about how annoyed they were with her answers
31:36: "And the statement that this is the most important election of our lives? You can't do that every election in a row. You gotta split them up by at least 4 years"
Come on cowards, she isn't there anymore, talk your shit!
Can I get a tl;dl?
The last thing I want to do is listen to a dem pol yak for 30+ minutes in an interview.
Trust me bro, all we need is 2 more senators who support killing the filibuster. Then it will be different. That’s the gist.
I posted this yesterday - https://hexbear.net/post/210853 - it still makes me laugh. It's a tally of the dem senators view on a filibuster carveout for a Roe law.
I follow the publisher of Talking Points Memo and his site often has dem tally stuff. It's usually utter dog shit. But because he's a huge dem fanboy he tries to make it seem unfortunate even though he's not a dummy and he's fully aware he's pushing dog shit at the dem voters and telling them "I know it looks, smells, and tastes like dog shit but... what if it's not???"
If the dems accomplish a miracle and keep the house and get - I dunno - five more seats in the senate - they still won't kill the fucking filibuster. And I bet they still won't codify Roe. They want it as a 2024 campaign issue and fundraising tool. Because they too are dog shit.
1000%. The shitty thing is they’ll probably keep the senate but lose the house so they’ll have more plausible deniability. But I live close to Delaware and there’s 0% chance Chris Co0ns will vote to kill the filibuster. Among others. Feinstein? Come on. ossoff? Please. But if they lose the house libs will just blame it on that. Zero self reflection.
What if (:galaxy-brain:) they lose house, but win senate. Then pass bills in the house before new electeds take their place, and then stamp them in the senate after they do :galaxy-brain:
It's a dem pol yakking, idk what else to say. Dem pol has plans, dem pol says :vote:, dem pol dodges questions. The hosts are the most lib out of my podcast rotation for sure but they do reflect on the interview and criticize her a bit. I wish they were more confrontational in the interview itself but duh of course they don't, Warren isn't that stupid.
I guess technically they’re the most lib in my rotation too but they don’t really talk about voting that much do they? They at least seem to understand how power works and wielded. I could see Ri being a Marxist but just doesn’t broadcast it.
They're weirdly off-balance by Warren, talking about how they got steamrolled or whatever, simply because she's a senator? Idk, I also hope for more argumentation but I think their analysis at the end is sound
saw this notification and it made me want to unsubscribe. sHe'S gOt pLaNs
What was her plan for getting third in her own state :michael-laugh:
So what's the deal with this podcast? Did it split off from ALAB and if so, why?
Tarik basically refuses to talk about the Supreme Court. But it's more of a break-off from Mic Dicta (RIP) since Rhiannon was on that one too.
I think some of them just wanted to talk about the Supreme Court.
basically refuses to talk about the Supreme Court
The ideal position
5-4 is very lib. They did a whole episode trying to shame people into voting for Biden while serving platitudes that they respect people who have their own reasons.
But they do hate the supreme court, so I can't reject them entirely lol
