  • Resigning requires feeling shame for your actions. Vance has absolutely no shame.

    Keep in mind that his private communications have leaked. He talked about what a monster Trump is for making immigrants feel unwelcome and unsafe.

    Vance is not like Trump. Trump was raised to be a monster and not intelligent enough to question anything. Vance, OTOH, is smart enough to know better. He chose to be this person. He willingly, voluntarily sold his soul to the MAGA devil. That’s why looking at him and listening to him makes people’s skin crawl. There was a person in there once who was forcibly evicted in favor of a monster.






  • Ah yes, the Fourth Amendment right to drive a vehicle while intoxicated. You could argue that the Founders were referring to horses and buggies, but clearly the spirit of the law was that it should be legal to get intoxicated and operate any mode of transportation. We’ll see how that airline pilot’s case goes, though. I’m worried that his right to fly drunk will be infringed.




  • The only way a third party would be viable in the US is if it grew organically from small, local races that aren’t captured by large donors. A dedicated group of volunteers knocking on doors and spreading a message can have a real effect in those races. Get a few candidates in office and start doing some good, and a party can grow around it. Draw up a blueprint for how you did it, and spread it around to other towns and cities, making allies with other local groups as they spring up.

    Is that easy to do? Of course not, but that would be a viable path for the formation of a functioning third party.
