Koch brother now, but you’re right. The mindless fearmongering tends to go one way. It’s why the sweeping attack of “socialism” still works despite House Republicans agreeing to the “socialism” and now McConnell has blocked it leaving the GA senators in a lurch because they know those GA voters what “socialism.” Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Myshkin Posted December 30, 2020 Share Posted December 30, 2020 It’s pretty amazing to me how pissed off the Trumponites are about the $600 fuck you Republicans have seen fit to dole out to us plebeians. I thought it would take more for 40 years of economic brainwashing to be flushed down the drain. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I’ve seen no arguments about fiscal responsibility or the welfare state. They just want some fucking money to pay the rent.

Fragile Bird Posted December 30, 2020 Author Share Posted December 30, 2020 Luke Letlow, a newly elected Representative from Louisiana, died of Covid-19 today. Things are starting to catch up with politicians since our conversation about the topic a few weeks ago. He was diagnosed on Dec. 18, was resting at home, then went to hospital a few days later in Monroe, then on Dec. 23 was moved to LSU Heath Shreveport Academic Medical Center and was in the ICU being treated with Remdesivir and steroids. He was 41 years old. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Well, at least his vacancy will help prevent the possibility of the GOP achieving an "effective" majority before the special elections can occur. ....Too soon? Seriously, damn, only 41.

DireWolfSpirit Posted December 30, 2020 Share Posted December 30, 2020 Not to be a Hungaraphobe(sp) or anything, but why would Soros roll 32b into the douchebags (Peterffy) control if he's basically another version of the Koch's? Seems odd, maybe I've misunderstood something here? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Seems odd, maybe I've misunderstood something here? Soros created a foundation called the Open Society Institute, which gives grants around the world to further civil initiatives to reduce poverty and increase transparency, with an aim to advance justice, education, public health and independent media. $15 B has already been distributed. Peterffy has nothing to do with it. Petterffy is a conservative who is very pro capitalism and anti socialism. He calls himself an independent but he donated to Trump and, as I said, he made those 2012 campaign commercials that basically labeled Democrats as socialists.

DireWolfSpirit Posted December 30, 2020 Share Posted December 30, 2020 Ah I see Bird, it's just in the way I read this. 11 hours ago, Fury Resurrected said: eta: I see the reason why he’s the richest Hungarian in the world is because Soros rolled $32 B into his foundation in support of open societies and left himself with a measly $8 B to live on. I thought you implied Soros gave Peterffy money by the way it's written, which of course, seemed pretty confusing. I'm gathering only now they are both Hungarian, thanks for clarifying my confusion. Eta: knew Soros was a European but had forgotten his country. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Seriously, damn, only 41. Safe R seat though. Is there a real risk of an effective GOP majority in the House before the next mid-terms? I thought all the Dems picked were from safe seats (although of course you can never really predict SE outcomes). Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
