With votes like this, you can really tell it’s not Dems vs Republicans or Left vs Right…it’s us vs them. It’s a big mono party in DC and they don’t care about anyone besides themselves

Yup. These shitheads have far more in common with each other than any of their constituents.

Bipartisanship when it benefits the military industrial complex. Deep divided party politics if it helps the rich, the poor, and everyone in the middle. I don't know if qualifies as oligarchy, but it sure as shit ain't representative democracy.

For the most part, when speaking generally, I absolutely agree. With this particular issue, there are a lot of moving parts that date back decades. Some we don't know about. Others, we do. Too much to get into atm but I will simply say, at this point it has to do with the timing. Bad form to be pulling troops from an earthquake devastated country that we've been stationed in for years.

And of course, the hatred of Gaetz who presented this bill, is all encompassing. lol. Personally, I don't have a problem with anyone shutting him down.

If your definition of leftist is “good”, then yes, we don’t have a good side to our government.
