Really wish that the Dems had someone better than the even more hostile towards anyone to the left of Reagan protégé of Nancy Pelosi as their House leader, though..

Still better than any of the Republican candidates, of course, but that bar is so low that you need special diving equipment to get under it.

While that is technically true, the problem is MUCH worse in the US than in most other democracies.

Funny how a country where political corruption is not just legal but considered necessary to obtain public office; where there's only two major parties (both of which are actually billion dollar private corporations); where all of the biggest news organisations are owned by a few billionaires subject to no standards except expectations of profits and where voter suppression is more rampant than in any other modern democracy would have a problem with unqualified demagogues being elected..

Thank FSM people like Fetterman are saying what the establishment has been refusing to acknowledge!

Personally I DO want (to keep) my bones and I refuse to apologise for it!
