    Holy shit. Biden hasn't even been inaguarated and Dems are caught up in all these scandals coming out. There's Newsom in California who the people are angry at and wanting a recall. Cuomo has been outed for sexual assault, Biden himself had that leaked audio talking white supremacist stuff, and now Pelosi has been caught up in something.

    They are bound to fuck up what little bit of power they have left.

      Cuomo was accused of sexual harassment, not rape. Not trying to defend him but it's not good to exaggerate claims like that.

      Cuomo has been outed as a rapist

      didn't he also say the n-word on tv a few days ago?

      Edit: he did

      "They used an expression, that Southern Italians were called, I believe they were saying Southern Italian Sicilians, were called quote on quote, and pardon my language, but I'm just quoting the Times, 'n***** wops,' 'n-word wops,' as a derogatory comment," he said.

        He did, but the liberal mainstream media don't care cause he's not the orange man. They'll sweep that one under the rug.

            Good question. Corruption in our political landscape has been normalized since the Clinton years. There was a lot of corruption all through the Reagan era, but when Clinton came in, it became more normalized and seen as a normal thing that both parties do. We literally just elected a man to president who has bragged openly about taking money from corporate lobbyists and how it's not all that bad.

              Thanks for the answer but it was more exasperation than lack of understanding

      Explicitly white supremacist stuff? What did he say?
