The Ruling Oligarchy ALWAYS gets its way.

Ukraine funding is an Oligarchy agenda item, so nothing will stop them.

Illegal immigration is an Oligarchy agenda item, so they got VERY upset when their agenda was halted for four years.

Republicans? Democrats? The illusion of choice is more like it-—I blame Republicans for getting us to this point-—they were voted in to stop, they didn’t!

Let’s put it this way——Democrats are actually “raping” you while Republicans are filming it and cheering them on! Who’s worse?

The Democrats held off on their voting until enough Repubs voted yes, then they joined in, while letting their ultraultraantisemites vote no. Pure theater all around.

The assistant Democrats know they have us by the small hairs. If we revolt, Jeffries becomes Speaker, the House votes an insurrectionist bill blocking Trump from running, the Senate joins in 51-49, and Biden signs it before going to Rehoboth Beach in his CinC role.

This is not a surprise. We have had almost four years of inaction and interparty nit-picking when the border could have been contained by pressuring the WH.

The GOP and DNC are on the same page as it comes to world-wide politics and the supremacy. of the dollar and thus, the US.
Nothing will be done by either party to upset the moves that are being laid down to do so.

Every overreach and misstep is being backed by those in power on both sides.

But, for every action there is a reaction, and we are witnessing the rest of the world’s (and massive population and commodity infrastructures) attempt to pull off the greatest feat in modern history: dethroning the system that backs the US and Europe.

Must be more earmarks added to buy off enough opposition and get Dems on board as well.

I can actually see thinking conservatives going along. After all, if you have your eyes open you can see you're sailing on the political equivalent of the Titanic. If you go along, you (and your family) get reserved seats on the lifeboats and in the meantime you still get to eat in the first class dining room.

We're either going to get a Dem corporate-fascist state or a Pinochet-like regime to crush the Left. But either way, there isn't going to be any return to a Constitutional republic anytime soon. Trump, like the Gracchi, is just a speed bump to the oligarchy until a genuine Caesar appears.

Assuming the GOP retains control of the House after 2024, and Trump is back in the Oval Office: when you see things like this occur, do you really think a Trump second term will be a success?

The American people are NOT being represented.

The Republicans do not deserve to control the House and Senate. I’ll be enthusiastically voting for Trump and none of the down ticket races.

the border could have been contained by pressuring the WH.

That's highly dubious. Short of impeaching Biden, which even a Republican House and especially Senate will not do, there's nothing they can do. The regime wants the border open, so it stays open. The only thing they could do is stop all government funding. But there are too many government check recipients, so that would mean political disaster for any majority blocking funding.

The only solution is removing the "Biden" regime and prosecuting afterwards. Anything in Congress is just theater.

Then why bother voting. Trump will need the members of the House and Senate to back him up and visa versa.

Cuck Johnson added the tic tok bill in with all this.

https://www.cnn.com/2024/04/18/tech/tiktok-ban-congress/index.html

Remember when he was saying he was going to do separate bills for things?

I guess he doesn’t remember that either.

Good. I’m sorry that a lot of people here became deluded and started thinking that support for Ukraine is the only issue or the number one issue facing the United States.
It’s an important issue but it is not the end of the world meaning that we have to throw all our Republican leaders out if they want to support the survival of Ukraine.

I totally support president Trump. He wants Europe to do more but he also said that Ukraine’s independence is important.

If everyone needs to calm down and stop listening to people who are probably working for Russia and that is not an exaggeration in at least a few cases.

Did we really get what a sizable amount of what we wanted when we did have the Presidency and Senate?

Other than Trump, why even bother to vote for the GOP?
